The Lefschetz fixed point theorem follows easily from the identification of the Lefschetz number with the fixed point index. This identification is a consequence of the functoriality of the trace in symmetric monoidal categories. There are…

Fixed points represent equilibrium states, stability, and solutions to a range of problems. It has been an active field of research. In this paper, we provide an overview of the main branches of fixed point theory. We discuss the key…

Using the method of averaged projections and introducing a new notion of angles between projections, we establish a criterion for a certain type of strengthening of property (T) (which is weaker than the notion of strong Banach property (T)…

A new fixed point principle for complete ordered families of equivalences (COFEs) is presented, which is stronger than the standard Banach-type fixed point principle.

Starting from the classic contraction mapping principle, we establish a general, flexible, variational setting that turns out to be applicable to many situations of existence in Differential Equations. We show its potentiality with some…

We apply methods of the fixed point theory to a Lambda policy iteration with a randomization algorithm for weak contractions mappings. This type of mappings covers a broader range than the strong contractions typically considered in the…

We give an alternative proof of the stable manifold theorem as an application of the (right and left) inverse mapping theorem on a space of sequences. We investigate the diffeomorphism class of the global stable manifold, a problem which in…

A recent result characterizes the fully order reversing operators acting on the class of lower semicontinuous proper convex functions in a real Banach space as certain linear deformations of the Legendre-Fenchel transform. Motivated by the…

We study a convergence criterion which generalises the notion of being monotonically decreasing, and introduce a quantitative version of this criterion, a so called metastable rate of asymptotic decreasingness. We then present a concrete…

Generalizations of a metric space is one of the most important research areas in mathematics. In literature ,there are several generalized metric spaces. The latest generalized metric space is b_{v}(s) metric space which is introduced by…

Generalized contextuality is a possible indicator of non-classical behaviour in quantum information theory. In finite-dimensional systems, this is justified by the fact that noncontextual theories can be embedded into some simplex, i.e.…

We introduce a large class of contractive mappings, called Suzuki Berinde type contraction. We show that any Suzuki Berinde type contraction has a fixed point and characterizes the completeness of the underlying normed space. A fixed point…

In this paper we extend the coupled fixed point theorems for mixed monotone operators $F:X \times X \rightarrow X$ obtained in [T.G. Bhaskar, V. Lakshmikantham, \textit{Fixed point theorems in partially ordered metric spaces and…

The paper is devoted to the fixed point theory in four aspects: of contractions, nonexpansive mappings, generalized inward mappings, and of the tool theorems. The manuscript was written about ten years ago. At first Nadler's concept of…

In this paper, we give a simple counterexample to show again the limits of Frink's~construction and then use Frink's metrization technique to answer two conjectures posed by Berinde and Choban, and to calculate corresponding metrics induced…

The objective of this work is the construction of `Boyd-Wong fixed point theorem' in the setting of generalized parametric metric space and discussion its application on existence criteria of solutions to a second order initial value…

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…

The existence of a Banach limit as a translation invariant positive continuous linear functional on the space of bounded scalar sequences which is equal to 1 at the constant sequence (1,1,...,1,...) is proved in a first course on functional…

We prove two general decomposition theorems for fixed-point invariants: one for the Lefschetz number and one for the Reidemeister trace. These theorems imply the familiar additivity results for these invariants. Moreover, the proofs of…

The postulates of comprehension and extensionality in set theory are based on an inversion principle connecting set-theoretic abstraction and the property of having a member. An exactly analogous inversion principle connects functional…
