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.…
We present some results and conjectures on a generalization to the noncommutative setup of the Brouwer fixed-point theorem from the Borsuk-Ulam theorem perspective.
Michael Handel proved in [7] the existence of a fixed point for an orientation preserving homeomorphism of the open unit disk that can be extended to the closed disk, provided that it has points whose orbits form an oriented cycle of links…
We extend to binary relational systems the notion of compact and normal structure, introduced by J.P.Penot for metric spaces, and we prove that for the involutive and reflexive ones, every commuting family of relational homomorphisms has a…
Let f be an orientation-preserving homeomorphism of the plane such that f-Id is contracting. Under these hypotheses, we establish the existence, for every periodic orbit, of a fixed point which has nonzero linking number with this periodic…
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…
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…
For an orientation-preserving homeomorphism of the sphere, we prove that if a translation line does not accumulate in a fixed point, then it necessarily spirals towards a topological attractor. This is in analogy with the description of…
Let $h : \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}^2$ be an orientation preserving homeomorphism of the plane. For any bounded orbit $\mathcal{O}(x)=\{h^n(x):n\in\mathbb{Z}\}$ there exists a fixed point $x'\in\mathbb{R}^2$ of $h$ linked to…
We show that a continuous map or a continuous flow on $\R^{n}$ with a certain recurrence relation must have a fixed point. Specifically, if there is a compact set W with the property that the forward orbit of every point in $\R^{n}$…
In this paper, we present the Brouwer-Schauder-Tychonoff fixed point theorem on locally convex spaces as the following extension and improvement: Suppose that S is a compact star-shaped subset with respect to p in S with its convexity index…
We prove the existence of common fixed points for commuting homeomorphisms of the plane R^2 or the sphere S^2, which preserve a probability measure. For example: some commuting C^1-diffeomorphisms of S^2, which are sufficiently close to the…
The Brouwer fixed point theorem says that any continuous function from disc to itself has a fixed point. By using simple geometrical technique we have generalized the result in manifold and proved that any continuous function on the…
Brouwer's fixed point theorem from 1911 is a basic result in topology - with a wealth of combinatorial and geometric consequences. In these lecture notes we present some of them, related to the game of HEX and to the piercing of multiple…
Brouwer homeomorphisms are fixed-point-free, orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the plane. In recent years, their dynamics have been mostly studied through two complementary approaches, one introduced by Handel and the other by Le…
We introduce a new type of mappings in metric space which are three-point analogue of the well-known Chatterjea type mappings, and call them generalized Chatterjea type mappings. It is shown that such mappings can be discontinuous as is the…
Conjugation, or Legendre transformation, is a basic tool in convex analysis, rational mechanics, economics and optimization. It maps a function on a linear topological space into another one, defined in the dual of the linear space by…
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…
If $f:[a,b]\to \mathbb{R}$, with $a<b$, is continuous and such that $a$ and $b$ are mapped in opposite directions by $f$, then $f$ has a fixed point in $I$. Suppose that $f:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ is map and $X$ is a continuum. We extend…
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…
