Let $X$ be a partially ordered set with the property that each family of order intervals of the form $[a,b],[a,\rightarrow )$ with the finite intersection property has a nonempty intersection. We show that every directed subset of $X$ has a…
In a many-to-one matching model in which firms' preferences satisfy substitutability, we study the set of worker-quasi-stable matchings. Worker-quasi-stability is a relaxation of stability that allows blocking pairs involving a firm and an…
The aim of this paper is to discuss Penot's problem on a generalization of Caristi's fixed point theorem. We settle this problem in the negative and we present some new theorems on the existence of fixed points of set-valued mappings in…
We provide a type theoretic treatment of the paper "On Tarski's fixed point theorem" by Giovanni Curi. There are benefits to having a type theoretic formulation apart from routine implementation in a proof assistant. By taking advantage of…
We introduce a general unifying framework for the investigation of pointlike sets. The pointlike functors are considered as distinguished elements of a certain lattice of subfunctors of the power semigroup functor; in particular, we exhibit…
We present a fixed point theorem for a class of (potentially) non-monotonic functions over specially structured complete lattices. The theorem has as a special case the Knaster-Tarski fixed point theorem when restricted to the case of…
Planar central configurations can be seen as critical points of the reduced potential or solutions of a system of equations. By the homogeneity and invariance of the potential with respect to SO(2), it is possible to see that the…
We construct a family of independent sets for finite, atomic, and graded lattices, extending the well-known cryptomorphism between geometric lattices and matroids. This construction leads to an embedding theorem into geometric lattices that…
The class of convex sets that admit approximations as Minkowski sum of a compact convex set and a closed convex cone in the Hausdorff distance is introduced. These sets are called approximately Motzkin-decomposable and generalize the notion…
The connections between Tarski's relation algebras and Thompson's groups F, T, V, and his monoid M are reviewed here, along with Jonsson-Tarski algebras, fork algebras, true pairing algebras, and tabular relation algebras. All of these…
We introduce and study a new family of extensions for the Borsuk-Ulam and topological Radon type theorems. The defining idea for this new family is to replace requirements of the form `a subset that is large in some sense goes to a…
In this paper we introduce and study the poset of equivalence classes of subgroups of a finite group $G$, induced by the isomorphism relation. This contains the well-known lattice of solitary subgroups of $G$. We prove that in several…
In this paper, using Kronecker's theorem, we discuss the set of common fixed points of an n-parameter continuous semigroup of mappings. We also discuss convergence theorems to a common fixed point of an n-parameter nonexpansive semigroup.
Knaster-Tarski's theorem, characterising the greatest fixpoint of a monotone function over a complete lattice as the largest post-fixpoint, naturally leads to the so-called coinduction proof principle for showing that some element is below…
An algebraization of the notion of topology has been proposed more than seventy years ago in a classical paper by McKinsey and Tarski. However, in McKinsey and Tarski's setting the model theoretical notion of homomorphism does not…
This paper is concerned with the study of a family of fixed point iterations combining relaxation with different inertial (acceleration) principles. We provide a systematic, unified and insightful analysis of the hypotheses that ensure…
In the effective topos there exists a chain-complete distributive lattice with a monotone and progressive endomap which does not have a fixed point. Consequently, the Bourbaki-Witt theorem and Tarski's fixed-point theorem for chain-complete…
The celebrated Kleene fixed point theorem is crucial in the mathematical modelling of recursive specifications in Denotational Semantics. In this paper we discuss whether the hypothesis of the aforementioned result can be weakened. An…
The concept of fixed point plays a crucial role in various fields of applied mathematics. The aim of this paper is to establish the existence of a unique fixed point of some type of functions which satisfy a new contraction principle,…
We present an alternative approach to the vector version of Krasnosel'skii compression-expansion fixed point theorem due to Precup, which is based on the fixed point index. It allows us to obtain new general versions of this fixed point…
