Let NG0 denote the category of all pointed numerically generated spaces and continuous maps preserving base-points. In [SYH], we described a passage from bivariant functors to generalized homology and cohomology theories. In this paper, we…

The aim of this paper is to generalize some fixed point theorems in the class of convex contraction of order $m$ on a complete suprametric space. Then, we will prove that the class of convex contraction of order m is strong enough to…

We generalize the notion of a modified trace (or m-trace) to the setting of non-unimodular categories. M-traces are known to play an important role in low-dimensional topology and representation theory, as well as in studying the category…

Fixpoint operators are tools to reason on recursive programs and data types obtained by induction (e.g. lists, trees) or coinduction (e.g. streams). They were given a categorical treatment with the notion of categories with fixpoints. A…

In this study we provide several significant generalisations of Banach contraction principle where the Lipschitz constant is substituted by real-valued control function that is a comparison function. We study non-stationary variants of…

We answer in the affirmative two conjectures made by Klein and Williams. First, in a range of dimensions, the equivariant Reidemeister trace defines a complete obstruction to removing $n$-periodic points from a self-map $f$. Second, this…

Conjugation, or Legendre transformation, is a basic tool in convex analysis, rational mechanics, economics and optimization. It maps a function on a linear topological space into another one, defined in the dual of the linear space by…

We give a new proof of Cartan's fixed point theorem using topological fixed point theory. For an odd dimensional, simply connected and complete manifold having non-positive curvature, we further prove that every isometry with finite order…

We study algebraic K-theory and topological Hochschild homology in the setting of bimodules over a stable category, a datum we refer to as a laced category. We show that in this setting both K-theory and THH carry universal properties, the…

The additivity of traces in certain tensor triangulated categories for endomorphisms of finite order of distinguished triangles is investigated. For the identity endomorphism this has been fully established by J. P. May ("The additivity of…

Given a braided pivotal category $\mathcal C$ and a pivotal module tensor category $\mathcal M$, we define a functor $\mathrm{Tr}_{\mathcal C}:\mathcal M \to \mathcal C$, called the associated categorified trace. By a result of…

In this paper we study the existence and uniqueness of fixed points of a class of mappings defined on complete, (sequentially compact) cone metric spaces, without continuity conditions and depending on another function.

For a given pair of maps f,g:X->M from an arbitrary topological space to an n-manifold, the Lefschetz homomorphism is a certain graded homomorphism L:H(X)->H(M) of degree (-n). We prove a Lefschetz-type coincidence theorem: if the Lefschetz…

The purpose of this article is to present a "Groupoid proof" to the Lefschetz fixed point formula for elliptic complexes. We shall define a "relative version" of tangent groupoid, describe the corresponding pseudodifferential calculi and…

We derive a formula for the regularized trace of operators with compact spectrum which act on the space of square integrable functions on the quotient of a semisimple Liegroup of real rank one by a convex-cocompact subgroup. The sum of…

We present new criteria on the existence of fixed points that combine some monotonicity assumptions with the classical fixed point index theory. As an illustrative application, we use our theoretical results to prove the existence of…

In this paper, we show the new fixed point theorem in metric spaces. Furthermore, for this fixed point theorem, we apply to the Collatz conjecture.

We consider a pivotal monoidal functor whose domain is a modular tensor category (MTC). We show that the trace of such a functor naturally extends to a representation of the corresponding tube category. As irreducible representations of the…

This paper discusses discrete-time maps of the form $x(k + 1) = F(x(k))$, focussing on equilibrium points of such maps. Under some circumstances, Lefschetz fixed-point theory can be used to establish the existence of a single locally…

A traced monad is a monad on a traced symmetric monoidal category that lifts the traced symmetric monoidal structure to its Eilenberg-Moore category. A long-standing question has been to provide a characterization of traced monads without…
