*Correspondence: [email protected]; [email protected] The National Academy of Sciences, ROK, Seoul, 137-044, Korea Department of Mathematical Sciences, Seoul National University, Seoul, 151-747, Korea Abstract Recently we established the Knaster, Kuratowski, and Mazurkiewicz (KKM) theory on abstract convex spaces. In our research, we noticed that there are quite a few generalizations and applications of the 1984 KKM theorem of Ky Fan compared with his celebrated 1961 KKM lemma. In a certain sense, the relationship between the 1984 theorem and hundreds of known generalizations of the original KKM theorem has not been recognized for a long period. There would be some reasons to explain this fact. Instead, in this paper, we give several generalizations of the 1984 theorem and some known applications in order to reveal the close relationship among them.

Fan-KKM Theorem in Minimal Vector Spaces and its Applications
In this paper, after reviewing some results in minimal space, some new results in this setting are given. We prove a generalized form of the Fan-KKM typetheorem in minimal vector spaces. As some applications, the open type of matching theorem and generalized form of the classical KKM theorem in minimal vector spaces are given.
متن کاملKKM and Ky Fan Theorems in Hyperconvex Metric Spaces
In hyperconvex metric spaces, we introduce Knaster-KuratowskiMazurkiewicz mappings (in short KKM-maps). Then we prove an analogue to Ky Fan fixed point theorem in hyperconvex metric spaces.
متن کاملRecent Applications of the Fan-kkm Theorem
In this review, firstly, we recall Ky Fan’s contributions to the KKM theory based on his celebrated 1961 KKM lemma (or the Fan-KKM theorem). Secondly, we introduce relatively recent applications of the Fan lemma due to other authors in the 21st century. Finally, some historical remarks on related works are added.
متن کاملGeneralizations of the Nash Equilibrium Theorem in the KKM Theory
The partial KKM principle for an abstract convex space is an abstract form of the classical KKM theorem. In this paper, we derive generalized forms of the Ky Fan minimax inequality, the von Neumann-Sion minimax theorem, the von Neumann-Fan intersection theorem, the Fan-type analytic alternative, and the Nash equilibrium theorem for abstract convex spaces satisfying the partial KKM principle. Th...
متن کاملNote on Kkm Maps and Applications
In 1929, the KKMmap was introduced by Knaster et al. [13] and it provides the foundation for many well-known existence results, such as Ky Fan’s minimax inequality theorem, Ky Fan-Browder’s fixed point theorem, Nash’s equilibrium theorem, HartmanStampacchia’s variational inequality theorem and many others (see [1, 2, 5–12, 14–17]). The central idea of applying KKM theory to prove that a family ...
