摘要
In this article we study the relationship between the degree for invariant strongly indefinite functionals and the equivariant Conley index. We prove that, under certain assumptions, a change of the equivariant Conley indices is equivalent to the change of the degrees for equivariant gradient maps. Moreover, we formulate easy to verify sufficient conditions for the existence of a global bifurcation of critical orbits of invariant strongly indefinite functionals.
