Caristi fixed-point theorem

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).[1][2] The conclusion of Caristi's theorem is equivalent to metric completeness, as proved by Weston (1977).[3] The original result is due to the mathematicians James Caristi and William Arthur Kirk.[4] 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.[5] Enunciato del teorema Let (X, d) be a complete metric space. Let T : X → X and f : X → [0, +∞) be a lower semicontinuous function from X into the non-negative real numbers. Supporre che, for all points x in X, {stile di visualizzazione d{grande (}X,T(X){grande )}leq f(X)-f{grande (}T(X){grande )}.} Then T has a fixed point in X, cioè. a point x0 such that T(x0) = x0. The proof of this result utilizes Zorn's lemma to guarantee the existence of a minimal element which turns out to be a desired fixed point.[6] References ^ Ekeland, Ivar (1974).
