In 1912 Brouwer published his translation theorem, which implies, for example, that an orientation preserving homeomorphism of the plane having a periodic point also has a fixed point. This theorem has given rise to a number of…
Given a closed, oriented surface, possibly with boundary, and a mapping class, we obtain sharp lower bounds on the number of fixed points of a surface symplectomorphism (i.e. area-preserving map) in the given mapping class, both with and…
We discuss some results concerning fixed point equations in the setting of topological *-algebras of unbounded operators. In particular, an existence result is obtained for what we have called {\em weak $\tau$ strict contractions}, and some…
We introduce the notion of admissible functions and show that the family of L-functions introduced by Lim in [Nonlinear Anal. 46(2001), 113--120] and the family of test functions introduced by Geraghty in [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 40(1973),…
The fixed-point theory and its applications to various areas of science are well known. In this paper we present some existence and uniqueness theorems for fixed circles of self-mappings on metric spaces with geometric interpretation. We…
We present a study on strong t-continuity and measure of discontinuity on PN spaces. As an application, we prove a fixed point theorem for a self mapping on PN spaces by means of measure of discontinuity.
We consider bounded 2-metric spaces satisfying an additional axiom, and show that a contractive mapping has either a fixed point or a fixed line.
We prove the following generalisation of Schauder's fixed point conjecture: Let $C_1,...,C_n$ be convex subsets of a Hausdorff topological vector space. Suppose that the $C_i$ are closed in $C=C_1\cup...\cup C_n$. If $f:C\to C$ is a…
One proves that any everywhere defined constructive mapping from a complete metric space into a complete metric space which preserves the property of precompacity of subsets is locally uniformly continuous. This fact can be viewed as…
In this paper, we study the existence of fixed points for mappings defined on complete (compact) metric space (X, d) satisfying a general contractive (contraction) inequality depended on another function. These conditions are analogous to…
We propose a new algorithm that finds an $\varepsilon$-approximate fixed point of a smooth function from the $n$-dimensional $\ell_2$ unit ball to itself. We use the general framework of finding approximate solutions to a variational…
This paper provides an overview of Lawvere's Fixed-Point Theorem in category theory and aims to detail the universal framework underlying self-reference and recursive structures. First, we rigorously define fundamental concepts - such as…
In this paper, we are interested in the number of fixed points of functions $f:A^n\to A^n$ over a finite alphabet $A$ defined on a given signed digraph $D$. We first use techniques from network coding to derive some lower bounds on the…
In this paper, exact one-point functions of N=1 super-Liouville field theory in two-dimensional space-time with appropriate boundary conditions are presented. Exact results are derived both for the theory defined on a pseudosphere with…
The aim of this paper is to obtain new solutions to the open question on the existence of a contractive condition which is strong enough to generate a fixed point but which does not force the map to be continuous at the fixed point. To do…
The Endpoint Theorem links the existence of a sequence (curve), without accumulation points, in a manifold to the existence of an open embedding of that manifold so that the image of the given sequence (curve) has a unique endpoint. It…
The theory of recursive functions is related in a well-known way to the notion of *least fixed points*, by endowing a set of partial functions with an ordering in terms of their domain of definition. When terms in the pure lambda-calculus…
An improvement of the Liouville theorem for discrete harmonic functions on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ is obtained. More precisely, we prove that there exists a positive constant $\varepsilon$ such that if $u$ is discrete harmonic on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ and…
It is shown that for any sufficiently regular even Minkowski valuation $\Phi$ which is homogeneous and intertwines rigid motions, there exists a neighborhood of the unit ball, where balls are the only solutions to the fixed-point problem…
In 1992, Bollob\'as and Meir showed that for every $k \geq 1$ there exists a constant $c_k$ such that, for any $n$ points in the $k$-dimensional unit cube $[0, 1]^k$, one can find a tour $x_1, \dots, x_n$ through these $n$ points with…
