The Banach contraction principle is the most celebrated fixed point theorem, it has been generalized in various directions. In this paper, inspired by the concept of $(\phi, F)-$contraction in metric spaces, introduced by Wardowski. We…

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…

This paper seeks to advance the theory of nonexpansive mappings by introducing and exploring a novel class of nonexpansive type mappings, which we aptly designate as perimetric nonexpansive mappings. We establish that the collection of…

The Initial Algebra Theorem by Trnkov\'a et al.~states, under mild assumptions, that an endofunctor has an initial algebra provided it has a pre-fixed point. The proof crucially depends on transfinitely iterating the functor and in fact…

Variational monotone recurrence relations arise in solid state physics as generalizations of the Frenkel-Kontorova model for a ferromagnetic crystal. For such problems, Aubry-Mather theory establishes the existence of "ground states" or…

We prove that the fixed point iteration of arbitrary positive concave mappings with nonempty fixed point set converges geometrically for any starting point. We also show that positivity is crucial for this result to hold, and the concept of…

We investigate bifurcation of closed orbits with a fixed energy level for a class of nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom. More precisely, we make a joint use of Moser invariant curve theorem and…

We consider the configuration space of planar $n$-gons with fixed perimeter, which is diffeomorphic to the complex projective space $\mathbb{C}P^{n-2}$. The oriented area function has the minimal number of critical points on the…

We prove that if the stable foliation and the unstable foliation of an Anosov diffeomorphism on a connected compact manifold are $C^3$, then the diffeomorphism has fixed points. This is a partial positive answer to a Smale conjecture for…

Vogt's theorem, concerning boundary angles of a convex arc with monotonic curvature (spiral arc), is taken as a starting point to establish basic properties of spirals. The theorem is expanded by removing requirements of convexity and…

We introduce and study a new type of mappings in metric spaces termed $n$-point Kannan-type mappings. A fixed-point theorem is proved for these mappings. In general case such mappings are discontinuous in the domain but necessarily…

A Lorenz map is a Poincar\'e map for a three-dimensional Lorenz flow. We describe the theory of renormalization for Lorenz maps with a critical point and prove that a restriction of the renormalization operator acting on such maps has a…
