Browder's Theorem through Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem

Eilon Solan, Omri N. Solan

英文摘要：

One of the conclusions of Browder (1960) is a parametric version of Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem, stating that for every continuous function $f : ([0,1] \times X) \to X$, where $X$ is a simplex in a Euclidean space, the set of fixed points of $f$, namely, the set $\{(t,x) \in [0,1] \times X \colon f(t,x) = x\}$, has a connected component whose projection on the first coordinate is $[0,1]$. Browder's (1960) proof relies on the theory of the fixed point index. We provide an alternative proof to Browder's result using Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem.

Browder's Theorem: from One-Dimensional Parameter Space to General Parameter Space

A parametric version of Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem, which is proven using the fixed-point index, states that for every continuous mapping $f : (X \times Y) \to Y$, where $X$ is nonempty, compact, and connected subset of a Hausdorff topological space and $Y$ is a nonempty, convex, and compact subset of a locally-convex topological vector space, the set of fixed points of $f$, defined by $C_f := \{ (x,y) \in X \times Y \colon f(x,y)=y\}$, has a connected component whose projection onto the first coordinate is $X$. In this note we provide an elementary proof for this result, using its reductio…

Browder's Theorem with General Parameter Space

Browder (1960) proved that for every continuous function $F : X \times Y \to Y$, where $X$ is the unit interval and $Y$ is a nonempty, convex, and compact subset of $\dR^n$, the set of fixed points of $F$, defined by $C_F := \{ (x,y) \in X \times Y \colon F(x,y)=y\}$ has a connected component whose projection to the first coordinate is $X$. We extend this result to the case where $X$ is a connected and compact Hausdorff space.

No bullying! A playful proof of Brouwer's fixed-point theorem

We give an elementary proof of Brouwer's fixed-point theorem. The only mathematical prerequisite is a version of the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem: a sequence in a compact subset of $n$-dimensional Euclidean space has a convergent subsequence with a limit in that set. Our main tool is a `no-bullying' lemma for agents with preferences over indivisible goods. What does this lemma claim? Consider a finite number of children, each with a single indivisible good (a toy) and preferences over those toys. Let's say that a group of children, possibly after exchanging toys, could bully some poor kid if al…

Fixed points and selections of multifunctions on spaces with convexity

We provide theorems containnig both Kakutani and Browder fixed points theorems as immediate corollaries, as well as Michael and Browder selection theorems. For this purpose we introduce convex structures more general than those of locally convex and non-locally convex topological vector spaces or generalized convexity structures due to Michael, Van de Vel and Horvath.

Ultrametric fixed points in reduced axiomatic systems

The Brezis-Browder ordering principle [Advances Math., 21 (1976), 355-364] is used to get a proof, in the reduced axiomatic system (ZF-AC+DC), of a fixed point result [in the complete axiomatic system (ZF)] over Cantor complete ultrametric spaces due to Petalas and Vidalis [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 118 (1993), 819-821].

A Brouwer fixed point theorem for graph endomorphisms

We prove a Lefschetz formula for general simple graphs which equates the Lefschetz number L(T) of an endomorphism T with the sum of the degrees i(x) of simplices in G which are fixed by T. The degree i(x) of x with respect to T is defined as a graded sign of the permutation T induces on the simplex x multiplied by -1 if the dimension of x is odd. The Lefschetz number is defined as in the continuum as the super trace of T induced on cohomology. In the special case where T is the identity, the formula becomes the Euler-Poincare formula equating combinatorial and cohomological Euler characteristi…

A note on a fixed point theorem on topological cylinders

We present a fixed point theorem on topological cylinders in normed linear spaces for maps satisfying a property of stretching a space along paths. This result is a generalization of a similar theorem obtained by D. Papini and F. Zanolin. In view of the main result we discuss the existence of fixed points for maps defined on different types of domains and we propose alternative proofs for classical fixed point theorems, as Brouwer, Schauder and Krasnosel'ski\uı ones.

A notion of graph homeomorphism

We introduce a notion of graph homeomorphisms which uses the concept of dimension and homotopy for graphs. It preserves the dimension of a subbasis, cohomology and Euler characteristic. Connectivity and homotopy look as in classical topology. The Brouwer-Lefshetz fixed point leads to the following discretiszation of the Kakutani fixed point theorem: any graph homeomorphism T with nonzero Lefschetz number has a nontrivial invariant open set which is fixed by T.

Fixed Point Theorem for Non-Self Maps of Regions in the Plane

Let X and Y be compact, simply connected and locally connected subsets of R^2, and let f : X -> Y be a homeomorphism isotopic to the identity on X. Generalizing Brouwer's plane translation theorem for self-maps of the plane, we prove that f has no recurrent (in particular, no periodic) points if it has no fixed points.

A Tree Sperner Lemma

In this paper we prove a combinatorial theorem for finite labellings of trees, and show that it is equivalent to a theorem for finite covers of metric trees and a fixed point theorem on metric trees. We trace how these connections mimic the equivalence of the Brouwer fixed point theorem with the classical KKM lemma and Sperner's lemma. We also draw connections to a KKM-type theorem about infinite covers of metric trees and fixed point theorems for non-compact metric trees. Finally, we develop a new KKM-type theorem for cycles, and discuss interesting social consequences, including an applicati…

On the approximate fixed point property in abstract spaces

Let $X$ be a Hausdorff topological vector space, $X^*$ its topological dual and $Z$ a subset of $X^*$. In this paper, we establish some results concerning the $σ(X,Z)$-approximate fixed point property for bounded, closed convex subsets $C$ of $X$. Three major situations are studied. First when $Z$ is separable in the strong topology. Second when $X$ is a metrizable locally convex space and $Z=X^*$, and third when $X$ is not necessarily metrizable but admits a metrizable locally convex topology compatible with the duality. Our approach focuses on establishing the Fréchet-Urysohn property for ce…
