We show that the Priess-Crampe & Ribenboim fixed point theorem is provable in $\mathsf{RCA}_0$. Furthermore, we show that Caristi's fixed point theorem for both Baire and Borel functions is equivalent to the transfinite leftmost path…

We continue the study of computable embeddings for pairs of structures, i.e. for classes containing precisely two non-isomorphic structures. Surprisingly, even for some pairs of simple linear orders, computable embeddings induce a…

We introduce the Ceiling Continued Fractions (FCT) framework for constructing three-term Egyptian fraction representations in the Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture. The approach exploits divisor structures of shifted integers p+i rather than…

Kronecker's Theorem and Rabin's Theorem are fundamental results about computable fields F and the decidability of the set of irreducible polynomials over F. We adapt these theorems to the setting of differential fields K, with constrained…

While numerous extensions of Banach's fixed point theorem typically offer only sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a fixed point and the convergence of iterative sequences, this study introduces a generalization…

This paper continues to study the connection between reverse mathematics and Weihrauch reducibility. In particular, we study the problems formed from Maltsev's theorem on the order types of countable ordered groups. Solomon showed that the…

[REVISED VERSION] The aim of this paper is to state a sharp version of the K\"onig supremum theorem, an equivalent reformulation of the Hahn--Banach theorem. We apply it to derive statements of the Lagrange multipliers, Karush-Kuhn-Tucker…

Fixed point iterations are a fundamental tool in numerical analysis and scientific computing for the approximation of solutions to nonlinear problems. Their convergence is often established via the Banach fixed point theorem, provided that…

We prove that every computably enumerable (c.e.) random real is provable in Peano Arithmetic (PA) to be c.e. random. A major step in the proof is to show that the theorem stating that "a real is c.e. and random iff it is the halting…

We discuss the existence and non-existence of non-negative weak solutions for second order nonlocal elliptic systems subject to functional boundary conditions. Our approach is based on classical fixed point index theory combined with some…

We consider a new type of mappings in metric spaces which can be characterized as mappings contracting perimeters of triangles. It is shown that such mappings are continuous. The fixed-point theorem for such mappings is proved and the…

We compare three notions of effectiveness on uncountable structures. The first notion is that of a $\real$-computable structure, based on a model of computation proposed by Blum, Shub, and Smale, which uses full-precision real arithmetic.…
