Fixed point theorem by Krasnoselski

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The fixed point theorem Krasnosel'skii ( English Krasnoselskii's fixed-point theorem ) is one of the many tenets that the Soviet mathematician Mark Krasnosel'skii the mathematical branch of nonlinear functional analysis contributed. The theorem goes back to a scientific publication by Krasnoselski in 1962 and deals with the question of the conditions under which a fixed point theorem applies to compact operators on Banach spaces . The theorem is related to Schauder's fixed point theorem .

Formulation of the sentence

Krasnoselski's Fixed Point Theorem can be stated as follows:

Let there be an orderly -Banachraum with norm and order cone .
The order cone is a closed subset of , which should not consist of the zero point alone, and the corresponding relation is a semi-order relation .
Let there be a compact operator and two different real numbers and , so that the two conditions
(i) .
(ii) .
are fulfilled.
Then:
has a fixed point , which is also the relationship
enough.

Explanations

  • Mean the above conditions (i) and (ii) that, for having always applicable and with always .
  • If the above conditions (i) and (ii) are fulfilled, one speaks (in the English technical language) of a cone compression , for a cone expansion .

background

The derivation of Krasnoselski's Fixed Point Theorem uses the following important theorem by the American mathematician James Dugundji from 1951:

In a Banach space every non-empty , closed and convex subset is a retract of .

Inference

With Krasnoselski's fixed point theorem it is possible, under certain circumstances, to infer the existence of very many fixed points. Namely, it entails the following corollary:

If above conditions (i) and (ii) apply even to a whole sequence of number pairs with positive real numbers and if the two number sequences and both converge to , then the compact operator has countably infinite fixed points .
