Brouwer fixed point theorem as a corollary of Lawvere

It is investigated in what sense the Brouwer fixed point theorem may be viewed as a corollary of the Lawvere fixed point theorem. A suitable generalisation of the Lawvere fixed point theorem is found and a means is identified by which the Brouwer fixed point theorem can be shown to be a corollary, once an appropriate continuous surjective mapping $A' \rightarrow X^{A''}$ has been constructed for each space $X$ in a certain class of "nice" spaces for each one of which the exponential topology on $X^{A''}$ exists, and here $A'$ and $A''$ have the same carrier set and the topology on $A'$ is finer than on $A''$. It is shown that there is a certain natural way of attempting to derive Brouwer as a corollary of Lawvere which is not possible, that is there is no space $A$ for which the exponential topology on $[0,1]^{A}$ exists and there is a continuous surjection $A \rightarrow [0,1]^{A}$. We then examine the range of contexts in which phenomena like those described in the first result occur, from a broadly model-theoretic perspective, with a view towards applications for the original motivation for the problem as a problem in decision theory for AI systems, suggested by the Machine Intelligence Research Institute.
