TextSeries: Cambridge Tracts in Mathematics (141). Publisher: Cambridge: Cambridge University Press , 2009ISBN: 9780511543005 ( e-book ) .Subject(s): Recreational Mathematics | Mathematics | Abstract AnalysisGenre/Form: Electronic booksDDC classification: 514 Online resources: https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511543005 View to click Summary: This book provides a clear exposition of the flourishing field of fixed point theory. Starting from the basics of Banach's contraction theorem, most of the main results and techniques are developed: fixed point results are established for several classes of maps and the three main approaches to establishing continuation principles are presented. The theory is applied to many areas of interest in analysis. Topological considerations play a crucial role, including a final chapter on the relationship with degree theory. Researchers and graduate students in applicable analysis will find this to be a useful survey of the fundamental principles of the subject. The very extensive bibliography and close to 100 exercises mean that it can be used both as a text and as a comprehensive reference work, currently the only one of its type.
