Fixed set theorems for discrete dynamics and nonlinear boundary-value problems

We consider self-mappings of Hausdorff topological spaces which map compact sets to compact sets and establish the existence of invariant (fixed) sets. The fixed set results are used to provide fixed set analogues of well-known fixed point theorems. An algorithm is employed to compute the existe...
