Annals of Probability 31(2003), 2109-2135. Invariant man-ifolds provide the geometric structures for describing and understanding dynamics of nonlinear systems. The theory of invariant manifolds for both finite and infinite dimensional autonomous deterministic systems, and for stochastic ordinary differential equations is relatively mature. In this paper, we present a unified theory of invarian...

Consider the holiday season, where there are n players who would like to exchange gifts. That is, we would like to generate a random permutation having no fixed point. It is known that such a random permutation can be obtained in a hidden form by using a number of physical cards of four colors with identical backs, guaranteeing that it has no fixed point (without revealing the permutation itsel...

in this note we point out and rectify some errors in a recently published paper “n. singh, r. jain: coupled fixed point results for weakly related mappings in partially ordered metric spaces, bull. iranian math. soc. 40 (2014), no. 1, 29-40”.

in the present paper‎, ‎we show the existence of a coupled fixed point for a non-decreasing mapping in partially ordered complete metric space using a partial order induced by an appropriate function $phi$‎. ‎we also define the concept of weakly related mappings on an ordered space‎. ‎moreover common coupled fixed points for two and three weakly related mappings are also proved in the same space‎.

In this note, we provide a new characterization of Aldous’ Brownian continuum random tree as the unique fixed point of a certain natural operation on continuum trees (which gives rise to a recursive distributional equation). We also show that this fixed point is attractive.
