Caristi fixed-point theorem

In mathematics, the Caristi fixed-point theorem (also known as the Caristi–Kirk fixed-point theorem) generalizes the Banach fixed-point theorem for maps of a complete metric space into itself. Caristi's fixed-point theorem modifies the ε-variational principle of Ekeland (1974, 1979). The conclusion of Caristi's theorem is equivalent to metric completeness, as proved by Weston (1977). The original result is due to the mathematicians and William Arthur Kirk. Caristi fixed-point theorem can be applied to derive other classical fixed-point results, and also to prove the existence of bounded solutions of a functional equation. (Wikipedia).

Paul Shafer:Reverse mathematics of Caristi's fixed point theorem and Ekeland's variational principle

The lecture was held within the framework of the Hausdorff Trimester Program: Types, Sets and Constructions. Abstract: Caristi's fixed point theorem is a fixed point theorem for functions that are controlled by continuous functions but are necessarily continuous themselves. Let a 'Caristi

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 5.4: Fixed points and Cauchy's theorem

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 5.4: Fixed points and Cauchy's theorem We begin with a small lemma stating that if a group of prime order acts on a set S, then the number of fixed points is congruent to the size of the set, modulo p. We need this result to prove Cauchy's theorem, which says

Fixed and Periodic Points | Nathan Dalaklis

Fixed Points and Periodic points are two mathematical objects that come up all over the place in Dynamical systems, Differential equations, and surprisingly in Topology as well. In these videos, I introduce the concepts of fixed points and periodic points and gradually build to a proof of

Piotr Przytycki: Torsion groups do not act on 2-dimensional CAT(0) complexes

We show, under mild hypotheses, that if each element of a finitely generated group acting on a 2-dimensional CAT(0) complex has a fixed point, then the action is trivial. In particular, all actions of finitely generated torsion groups on such complexes are trivial. As an ingredient, we pro
