Fixed Point Theory in Ordered Sets and Applications

This unified, comprehensive treatment of an order-theoretic fixed point theory in partially ordered sets shows its various useful interactions with topological structures. Covering the preliminaries before moving to more advanced topics makes it approachable.

This monograph provides a unified and comprehensive treatment of an order-theoretic fixed point theory in partially ordered sets and its various useful interactions with topological structures. The material progresses systematically, by presenting the preliminaries before moving to more advanced topics. In the treatment of the applications a wide range of mathematical theories and methods from nonlinear analysis and integration theory are applied; an outline of which has been given an appendix chapter to make the book self-contained. Graduate students and researchers in nonlinear analysis, pure and applied mathematics, game theory and mathematical economics will find this book useful.
