A Program for the Numerical Approximation of a Fixed Point of an Arbitrary Continuous Mapping of the N-Cube or N-Simplex into Itself,
Abstract
In the report a systematic search program is given for an approximate fixed point of a continuous mapping of either the unit n-cube or a 'preferred' n-simplex (on the unit n-cube) into itself. A detailed discussion of the fixed point algorithm and the coding of this algorithm is included in this report. A result concerning the estimate of the error is given and also three examples which illustrate the application of this routine. (Author)
