Some fixed-point theorems for multivalued monotone mappings in ordered uniform space.
Basic examples show that coincidence theory is intimately related to central subjects of differential topology and homotopy theory such as Kervaire invariants and divisibility properties of Whitehead products and of Hopf invariants. We recall some recent results and ask a few questions which seem to be important for a more comprehensive understanding.
A rotoid is a space X with a special point e ∈ X and a homeomorphism F: X² → X² having F(x,x) = (x,e) and F(e,x) = (e,x) for every x ∈ X. If any point of X can be used as the point e, then X is called a strong rotoid. We study some general properties of rotoids and prove that the Sorgenfrey line is a strong rotoid, thereby answering several questions posed by A. V. Arhangel'skii, and we pose further questions.
