Sperner’s Lemma and Brouwer’s Fixed Point Theorem

چکیده

So Brouwer’s Fixed Point Theorem asserts that each Dn, n ≥ 1, is a fixed point domain. On the other hand, Dn less a point, [0, 1]∪ [2, 3] and R are not fixed point domains. (It is easy to construct appropriate functions with no fixed point for these sets.) The fact that Dn is compact is important in Brouwer’s Fixed Point Theorem. However, if G is a fixed point domain, and f : G → H is a continuous bijection with a continuous inverse, then H is a fixed point domain.

Constructive Proof of Brouwer’s Fixed Point Theorem for Sequentially Locally Non-constant and Uniformly Sequentially Continuous Functions

We present a constructive proof of Brouwer’s fixed point theorem for sequentially locally non-constant and uniformly sequentially continuous functions based on the existence of approximate fixed points. And we will show that our Brouwer’s fixed point theorem implies Sperner’s lemma for a simplex. Since the existence of approximate fixed points is derived from Sperner’s lemma, our Brouwer’s fixe...

Proof of Constructive Version of the Fan-Glicksberg Fixed Point Theorem Directly by Sperner’s Lemma and Approximate Nash Equilibrium with Continuous Strategies: A Constructive Analysis

It is often demonstrated that Brouwer’s fixed point theorem can not be constructively proved. Therefore, Kakutani’s fixed point theorem, the Fan-Glicksberg fixed point theorem and the existence of a pure strategy Nash equilibrium in a strategic game with continuous (infinite) strategies and quasi-concave payoff functions also can not be constructively proved. On the other hand, however, Sperner...

Sperner’s Lemma Implies Kakutani’s Fixed Point Theorem

Kakutani’s fixed point theorem has many applications in economics and game theory. One of its most well-known applications is in John Nash’s paper [8], where the theorem is used to prove the existence of an equilibrium strategy in n-person games. Sperner’s lemma, on the other hand, is a combinatorial result concerning the labelling of the vertices of simplices and their triangulations. It is kn...

Cs294-1 Algorithmic Aspects of Game Theory 2.1 Overview 2.2 Sperner's Lemma

We begin by looking at a set of theorems from various disciplines and how they relate to one another. From combinatorics, we take Sperner’s Lemma which we can use to prove Brouwer’s Fixed Point Theorem from topology. Brouwer’s Fixed Point Theorem can be used to prove the Arrow-Debreu Theorem from economics which states that general equilibria exist, and can also be used to prove Kakutani’s Fixe...
