We use the theory of cubic structures to give a fixed point Riemann-Roch formula for the equivariant Euler characteristics of coherent sheaves on projective flat schemes over Z with a tame action of a finite abelian group. This formula…

The Kubo-Ando theory deals with connections for positive bounded operators. On the other hand, in various analysis related to von Neumann algebras it is impossible to avoid unbounded operators. In this article we try to extend a notion of…

Let $c$ be an element of the Weyl algebra $W(d)$ which is given by a strictly positive operator in the Schr"odinger representation. It is shown that, under some conditions, there exist elements $b_1,...,b_d$ in $W(d)$ such that $b_1 c b_1^*…

We consider semidifferentiable (possibly nonsmooth) maps, acting on a subset of a Banach space, that are nonexpansive either in the norm of the space or in the Hilbert's or Thompson's metric inherited from a convex cone. We show that the…

The celebrated Kleene fixed point theorem is crucial in the mathematical modelling of recursive specifications in Denotational Semantics. In this paper we discuss whether the hypothesis of the aforementioned result can be weakened. An…

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…

We study factorization and dilation properties of Markov maps between von Neumann algebras equipped with normal faithful states, i.e., completely positive unital maps which preserve the given states and also intertwine their automorphism…

A fixed point theorem is proved for inverse transducers, leading to an automata-theoretic proof of the fixed point subgroup of an endomorphism of a finitely generated virtually free group being finitely generated. If the endomorphism is…

We establish some new common fixed point theorems of single-valued and multivalued mappings operating between complete ordered locally convex spaces under weaker assumptions. As an application, we prove a new minimax theorem of existence of…

Two kinds of maps that describe evolution of states of a subsystem coming from dynamics described by a unitary operator for a larger system, maps defined for fixed mean values and maps defined for fixed correlations, are found to be quite…

The starting points for this paper are simple descriptions of the norm and strong* closures of the unitary orbit of a normal operator in a von Neumann algebra. The statements are in terms of spectral data and do not depend on the type or…

We investigate linear maps between matrix algebras that remain positive under tensor powers, i.e., under tensoring with $n$ copies of themselves. Completely positive and completely co-positive maps are trivial examples of this kind. We show…

We establish two fixed point theorems for certain mappings of contractive type. The first result is concerned with the case where such mappings take a nonempty, closed subset of a complete metric space $X$ into $X$, and the second with an…

The paper discusses the conditions for the existence of fixed points of multivalued mappings that are not based on the linear structure of the set. The descriptions for the sets of fixed points for mappings with closed graph in compact…

Kunen proved that a quasigroup satisfying a Moufang-type identity ($N1$) must be a loop. We reformulate the argument in the category $\mathbf{Set}$ as a fixed-point extraction principle. From $N1$ one canonically obtains an idempotent…
