Is there a differential form which corresponds to an eigenvalue of the homomorphism in cohomology?
Let $M$ be a closed manifold and $f:M\to M$ be a diffeomorphism. Suppose the homomorphism $f^*:H^k(M;\mathbb R)\to H^k(M;\mathbb R)$ has an eigenvalue $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$. Note that $\lambda$ is ...
