Orbital Lipschitzian mappings and semigroup actions on metric spaces

In this paper we study some results on common fixed points of families of mappings on metric spaces by imposing orbit Lipschitzian conditions on them. These orbit Lipschitzian conditions are weaker than asking the mappings to be Lipschitzian in the traditional way. We provide new results under the two classic approaches in the theory of fixed points for uniformly Lipschitzian mappings: the one under the normal structure property of the space (which can be regarded as the Cassini-Maluta's approach) and the one after the Lifschitz characteristic of the metric space (Lifschitz's approach). Although we focus on the case of semigroup of mappings, our results are new even when a mapping is considered by itself.

Fixed points and common fixed points for orbit-nonexpansive mappings in metric spaces

In this paper we introduce an interlacing condition on the elements of a family of operators that allows us to gather together a number of results on fixed points and common fixed points for single and families of mappings defined on metric spaces. The innovative concept studied here deals with nonexpansivity conditions with respect to orbits and under assumptions that only depend on the features of the closed balls of the metric space.

The Knaster-Tarski theorem versus monotone nonexpansive mappings

Let $X$ be a partially ordered set with the property that each family of order intervals of the form $[a,b],[a,\rightarrow )$ with the finite intersection property has a nonempty intersection. We show that every directed subset of $X$ has a supremum. Then we apply the above result to prove that if $X$ is a topological space with a partial order $\preceq $ for which the order intervals are compact, $\mathcal{F}$ a nonempty commutative family of monotone maps from $X$ into $X$ and there exists $c\in X$ such that $c\preceq Tc$ for every $T\in \mathcal{F}$, then the set of common fixed points of $\mathcal{F}$ is nonempty and has a maximal element. The result, specialized to the case of Banach spaces gives a general fixed point theorem that drops almost all assumptions from the recent results in this area. An application to the theory of integral equations of Urysohn's type is also given.
