We present a solution of Exercise 1.2.1 of [2] which yields a short new proof of a key step in one of proofs of Brouwer's fixed point theorem, 1910. A few people asked the author about the details of the solution and they might be…

One of the conclusions of Browder (1960) is a parametric version of Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem, stating that for every continuous function $f : ([0,1] \times X) \to X$, where $X$ is a simplex in a Euclidean space, the set of fixed points…

Brouwer's fixed point theorem states that any continuous function from a closed $n$-dimensional ball to itself has a fixed point. In 1961, Klee showed that if such a function has discontinuities that are bounded, then it has a point that is…

We give a remarkably elementary proof of the Brouwer fixed point theorem. The proof is verifiable for most of the mathematicians.

We present a constructive proof of Brouwer's fixed point theorem with sequentially at most one fixed point, and apply it to the mini-max theorem of zero-sum games.

The classical Brouwer fixed point theorem states that in R^d every continuous function from a convex, compact set on itself has a fixed point. For an arbitrary probability space, let L^0 = L^0 (\Omega, A,P) be the set of random variables.…

A parametric version of Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem, which is proven using the fixed-point index, states that for every continuous mapping $f : (X \times Y) \to Y$, where $X$ is nonempty, compact, and connected subset of a Hausdorff…

We combine Homotopy Type Theory with axiomatic cohesion, expressing the latter internally with a version of "adjoint logic" in which the discretization and codiscretization modalities are characterized using a judgmental formalism of "crisp…

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…

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 present a constructive proof of Brouwer's fixed point theorem for uniformly continuous and sequentially locally non-constant functions based on the existence of approximate fixed points. And we will show that Brouwer's fixed point…

In a paper from 1960, Felix Browder established a theorem concerning the continuation of the fixed points of a family of continuous functions $f_t:X\to X$ depending continuously on a parameter $t\in [0,1]$, where $X$ is a convex and compact…

We prove three theorems giving fixed points for orientation preserving homeomorphisms of the plane following forgotten results of Brouwer.

Allegedly, Brouwer discovered his famous fixed point theorem while stirring a cup of coffee and noticing that there is always at least one point in the liquid that does not move. In this paper, based on a talk in honour of Brouwer at the…

These informal notes, not intended for publication, provide an approach to the Borsuk--Ulam theorem via Stokes' theorem, in a similar spirit to Lima's proof of the Brouwer fixed point theorem. They are intended to be accessible to anyone…

Homotopy Brouwer theory is a tool to study the dynamics of surface homeomorphisms. We introduce and illustrate the main objects of homotopy Brouwer theory, and provide a proof of Handel's fixed point theorem. These are the notes of a…

More than a century ago, L. E. J. Brouwer proved a famous theorem, which says that any orientation preserving homeomorphism of the plane having a periodic point must have a fixed point. In recent years, there are still some authors giving…

We show the direct applicability of the Brouwer fixed point theorem for the existence of equilibrium points and periodic solutions for differential systems on general domains satisfying geometric conditions at the boundary. We develop a…

Michael Handel has proved in [Ha] a fixed point theorem for an orientation preserving homeomorphism of the open unit disk, that turned out to be an efficient tool in the study of the dynamics of surface homeomorphisms. The present article…

In 1912 Brouwer published his translation theorem, which implies, for example, that an orientation preserving homeomorphism of the plane having a periodic point also has a fixed point. This theorem has given rise to a number of…
