We generalize the Cohen-Jones-Segal construction to the Morse-Bott setting. In other words, we define framings for Morse-Bott analogues of flow categories and associate a stable homotopy type to this data. We use this to recover the stable…
We consider a self-homeomorphism h of some surface S. A subset F of the fixed point set of h is said to be unlinked if there is an isotopy from the identity to h that fixes every point of F. With Le Calvez' transverse foliations theory in…
A $1$-Lipschitz map $f$ from a convex compact set to itself has fixed points. This consequence of Brouwer's or Schauder's fixed point theorem has more elementary proofs by approximating $f$ by $\lambda$-contractions, $f_\lambda$. We study…
We study the geometry of equivariant, proper maps from homogeneous bundles $G\times_P V$ over flag varieties $G/P$ to representations of $G$, called collapsing maps. Kempf showed that, provided the bundle is completely reducible, the image…
Given any pointed CW complex (X,x), it is well known that the fondamental group of X pointed at x is naturally isomorphic to the automorphism group of the functor which associates to a locally constant sheaf on X its fibre at x. The purpose…
In this paper, we study the existence of common fixed points of family of multivalued mappings satisfying generalized F-contractive conditions in ordered metric spaces. These results establish some of the general common fixed point theorems…
Let F be a non-archimedean local field of characteristic zero whose residue field has at least three elements. Let G be an almost simple linear algebraic group over F, with rank_F(G) >= 2. Let X be a simply connected symmetric space of…
We consider convex maps f:R^n -> R^n that are monotone (i.e., that preserve the product ordering of R^n), and nonexpansive for the sup-norm. This includes convex monotone maps that are additively homogeneous (i.e., that commute with the…
We prove that if a continuous piecewise-smooth map on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is comprised of two linear functions, has a bounded orbit, and satisfies a certain non-degeneracy condition, then it has a fixed point. The result has important…
We give rigorous foundations for parametrized homotopy theory in this monograph. After preliminaries on point-set topology, base change functors, and proper actions of non-compact Lie groups, we develop the homotopy theory of equivariant…
We prove a fixed point theorem for the action of certain local monodromy groups on \'etale covers and use it to deduce lower bounds in essential dimension. In particular, we give more geometric proofs of many (but not all) of the results of…
For discrete groups G, we introduce equivariant Nielsen invariants. They are equivariant analogs of the Nielsen number and give lower bounds for the number of fixed point orbits in the G-homotopy class of an equivariant endomorphism f:X->X.…
A well-known result of W. Ray asserts that if $C$ is an unbounded convex subset of a Hilbert space, then there is a nonexpansive mapping $T$: $C\to C$ that has no fixed point. In this paper we establish some common fixed point properties…
We prove that a closed convex subset $C$ of a real Hilbert space $X$ has the fixed point property for $(c)$-mappings if and only if $C$ is bounded. Some convergence results about the iterations are obtained.
This paper provides a fixed point theorem and iterative construction of a common fixed point for a general class of nonlinear mappings in the setup of uniformly convex hyperbolic spaces. We translate a multi-step iteration, essentially due…
For a locally compact group $G$ and a strongly self-absorbing $G$-algebra $(\mathcal{D},\delta)$, we obtain a new characterization of absorption of a strongly self-absorbing action using almost equivariant completely positive maps into the…
We prove a parametric Oka principle for equivariant sections of a holomorphic fibre bundle $E$ with a structure group bundle $\mathscr G$ on a reduced Stein space $X$, such that the fibre of $E$ is a homogeneous space of the fibre of…
McDuff and Segal proved that unordered configuration spaces of open manifolds satisfy homological stability: there is a stabilization map $\sigma: C_n(M)\to C_{n+1}(M)$ which is an isomorphism on $H_d(-;\mathbb{Z})$ for $n\gg d$. For a…
In this paper, we study the structure of the fixed point sets of noncommutative self maps of the free ball. We show that for such a map that fixes the origin the fixed point set on every level is the intersection of the ball with a linear…
We study the fixed point theory of n-valued maps of a space X using the fixed point theory of maps between X and its configuration spaces. We give some general results to decide whether an n-valued map can be deformed to a fixed point free…
