STABILITY AND ASYMPTOTIC FIXED POINT THEORY,
Abstract
An asymptotic fixed point theorem is developed as a generalization of the Schauder fixed point theorem which states: if S is a closed convex subset of a Banach space X, every continuous compact mapping of S into itself has a fixed point. When it is difficult or impossible to identify a set S with appropriate properties and such that T(S) is a subset of S and when the functional equation exhibits strong asymptotic or stability properties as the independent variable becomes very large, then the asymptotic fixed point theory is needed.
