Structure of the fixed-point set of mappings with lipschitzian iterates

Abstract

We prove, by asymptotic center techniques and some inequalities in Banach spaces, that if $E$ is $p$-uniformly convex Banach space, $C$ is a nonempty bounded closed convex subset of $E$, and $T\colon C\rightarrow C$ has lipschitzian iterates (with some restrictions), then the set of fixed-points is not only connected but even a retract of $C$. The results presented in this paper improve and extend some results in [J. Górnicki, < i> A remark on fixed point theorems for lipschitzian mappings< /i> , J. Math. Anal. Appl. < b> 183< /b> (1994), 495–508], [J.
