Fixed point theorems for continuous single-valued and upper semicontinuous set-valued mappings in $p$-vector and locally $p$-convex spaces

Abstract

The goal of this paper is to establish a general fixed point theorem for compact single-valued continuous mappings in Hausdorff $p$-vector spaces, and a fixed point theorem for upper semicontinuous set-valued mappings in locally $p$-convex spaces for $p\in (0, 1]$. These results not only provide a solution to Schauder conjecture in the affirmative under the setting of $p$-vector spaces for compact single-valued continuous mappings, but also show the existence of fixed points for upper semicontinuous set-valued mappings defined on $s$-convex subsets in Hausdorff locally $p$-convex spaces, which would be fundamental for nonlinear functional analysis, where $s, p \in (0, 1]$.
