Announcement

The fully open access journal Fixed Point Theory and Applications is published by Springer from March 2011 in its SpringerOpen portfolio of open access journals. The journal's older content is available from the current publisher, Hindawi. Springer welcomes all new submissions to the SpringerOpen submission system at http://www.fixedpointtheoryandapplications.com/manuscript. Revisions of manuscripts that have been originally submitted to Hindawi's system will be finalized within the system, any resubmissions should be directed to the Hindawi system. If any transfer-related action is required from authors, the Editors or SpringerOpen will contact them.

Aims & scope

cover

Fixed point theorems give the conditions under which maps (single or multivalued) have solutions. The theory itself is a beautiful mixture of analysis (pure and applied), topology, and geometry. Over the last 50 years or so the theory of fixed points has been revealed as a very powerful and important tool in the study of nonlinear phenomena. In particular fixed point techniques have been applied in such diverse fields as biology, chemistry, economics, engineering, game theory, and physics. The aim of this journal is to report new fixed point theorems and their applications where the essentiality of the fixed points theorems is highlighted. This journal will accept high quality articles containing original research results and survey articles of exceptional merit.

Calls for Papers

Special Issue on Professor Anthony To-Ming Lau's contributions to the development of Fixed Point Theory and Applications.

Professor Anthony Lau has contributed greatly to the field of nonlinear analysis and applications, especially nonlinear ergodic theory, fixed point theory and geometry of fixed point sets for semigroups of mappings on subsets of Banach spaces or locally convex spaces related to harmonic analysis and amenability. He has published many elegant papers on the above-mentioned topics during the last 40 years. This Special Issue will focus on Professor Anthony Lau's contributions to the development of fixed point theory with applications. We are currently inviting submissions from a variety of topics.

Submission opens: 1st March 2012
Deadline for submissions: 1st July 2012
