Variations on some finite-dimensional fixed-point theorems

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We give rather elementary topological proofs of some generalizations of fixed-point theorems in \( {{\mathbb{R}}_n} \) due to Pireddu and Zanolin and Zgliczyński, which are useful in various problems related to ordinary differential equations.
