Schauder fixed-point theorem

The Schauder fixed-point theorem is an extension of the Brouwer fixed-point theorem to topological vector spaces, which may be of infinite dimension. It asserts that if is a nonempty convex closed subset of a Hausdorff topological vector space and is a continuous mapping of into itself such that is contained in a compact subset of , then has a fixed point. A consequence, called Schaefer's fixed-point theorem, is particularly useful for proving existence of solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations.Schaefer's theorem is in fact a special case of the far reaching which was proved earlier by Juliusz Schauder and Jean Leray.The statement is as follows: Let be a continuous and compact mapping of a Banach space into itself, such that the set is bounded. Then has a fixed point. (A compact mapping in this context is one for which the image of every bounded set is relatively compact.) (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

A quantum particle starting in a well of a periodic egg carton potential

Like the video https://youtu.be/DzIZwCeaVkM this one shows a simulation of a quantum particle in a periodic potential. The point of view rotates around the potential landscape, which remains fixed in space. While on the previous video, the initial state was a Gaussian wave packet located n

A beautiful combinatorical proof of the Brouwer Fixed Point Theorem - Via Sperner's Lemma

Using a simple combinatorical argument, we can prove an important theorem in topology without any sophisticated machinery. Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem: Every continuous mapping f(p) from between closed balls of the same dimension have a fixed point where f(p)=p. Sperner's Lemma: Ever

Lefschetz Fixed Point Theorem example

Here we give an example of how to use the Lefschetz fixed point theorem. These notes were really useful as a graduate student, some of them are down now, but I think these notes I had came from here: http://mathsci.kaist.ac.kr/~jinhyun/useful.html

A quantum particle in a periodic egg carton potential

This simulation of a quantum particle in a periodic particle explores a new visualization, in which the z-coordinate is the sum of the potential, and another quantity related to the wave function (either its real part, or its modulus squared). There is a detailed theory on Schrödinger's eq
