Recently a new class of critical points, termed as {\sl perpetual points}, where acceleration becomes zero but the velocity remains non-zero, is observed in nonlinear dynamical systems. In this work we show whether a transformation also…

We establish that the phase transition for infinite cycles in the random stirring model on an infinite regular tree of high degree is sharp. That is, we prove that there exists d_0 such that, for any d \geq d_0, the set of parameter values…

We study Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on symplectic Euclidean spaces that are equal to non-degenerate linear maps at infinity. Under the assumption that there exists an isolated homologically nontrivial fixed point satisfying the twist…

We investigate the structure of fixed point sets of self-embeddings of models of arithmetic. In particular, given a countable nonstandard model M of a modest fragment of Peano arithimetic, we provide complete characterizations of (a) the…

We show that a continuous map or a continuous flow on $\R^{n}$ with a certain recurrence relation must have a fixed point. Specifically, if there is a compact set W with the property that the forward orbit of every point in $\R^{n}$…

This article presents a deep investigation of fixed points for multivalued weak contractions in cone metric spaces. We extend Berinde weak contraction principles to the multivalued setting in cone metric spaces, developing existence,…

We consider the population of critical points, generated from the critical point of the master function with no variables, which is associated with the trivial representation of the twisted affine Lie algebra $C_n^{(1)}$. The population is…

We prove a version of the Lefschetz fixed point theorem for multivalued maps $F:X\multimap X$ in which $X$ is a finite $T_0$ space.

We study the existence of fixed points for continuous maps $f$ from an $n$-ball $X$ in $\mathbb R^n$ to $\mathbb R^n$ with $n\geq 1$. We show that $f$ has a fixed point if, for some absolute retract $Y\subset\partial X$, $f(Y)\subset X$ and…

We prove that every continuous function on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space X can be uniformly approximated by smooth functions with no critical points. This kind of result can be regarded as a sort of very strong approximate…

The limiting distribution \mu of the normalized number of key comparisons required by the Quicksort sorting algorithm is known to be the unique fixed point of a certain distributional transformation T -- unique, that is, subject to the…

The study of fixed points is a classical subject in geometry and dynamics. If the circle acts in a Hamiltonian fashion on a compact symplectic manifold M, then it is classically known that there are at least 1 + dim(M)/2 fixed points; this…

We study the role of multiplicative stochastic processes in the description of the dynamics of an order parameter near a critical point. We study equilibrium, as well as, out-of-equilibrium properties. By means of a functional formalism, we…

We introduce and study a new class of nonlinear monotone operators acting in normal cones of real Banach spaces and possessing the property of strong concavity. We establish new constructive principles for the existence of nonzero fixed…

We establish a coupled fixed points theorem for a meaningful class of mixed monotone multivalued operators and then we use it to derive some results on existence of quasisolutions and solutions to first--order functional differential…

It is known that every homeomorphism of the plane has a fixed point in a non-separating, invariant subcontinuum. Easy examples show that a branched covering map of the plane can be periodic point free. In this paper we show that any…

We give a survey, known and new results on the beingness of fixed points of the maximal operator in the more general settings of metric measure space. In particular, we prove that the fixed points of the uncentered one must be the constant…

This paper considers the existence and multiplicity of fixed points for the integral operator \begin{equation*} {\mathcal{T}}u(t)=\lambda \,\int_{0}^{T}k(t,s)\,f(s,u(s),u^{\prime }(s),\dots ,u^{(m)}(s))\,\dif s,\quad t\in \lbrack 0,T]\equiv…

We study fixed-points of scalar fields that transform in the bifundamental representation of $O(N)\times O(M)$ in $3-\epsilon$ dimensions, generalizing the classic tricritical sextic vector model. In the limit where $N$ is large but $M$ is…

We consider a system of 2D interacting fermions with a flat Fermi surface. The apparent conflict between Luttinger and non Luttinger liquid behavior found through different approximations is resolved by showing the existence of a line of…
