The result of Boyce and Huneke gives rise to a 1-dimensional continuum, which is the intersection of a descending family of disks, that admits two commuting homeomorphisms without a common fixed point.
The genus graphs have been studied by many authors, but just a few results concerning in special cases: Planar, Toroidal, Complete, Bipartite and Cartesian Product of Bipartite. We present here a derive general lower bound for the genus of a abelian Cayley graph and construct a family of circulant graphs which reach this bound.
We study compliance relations between behavioural contracts in a syntax independent setting based on Labelled Transition Systems. We introduce a fix-point based family of compliance relations, and show that many compliance relations appearing in literature belong to this family.
If $f:[a,b]to mathbb{R}$, with $a<b$, is continuous and such that $a$ and $b$ are mapped in opposite directions by $f$, then $f$ has a fixed point in $I$. Suppose that $f:mathbb{C}tomathbb{C}$ is map and $X$ is a continuum. We extend the above for certain continuous maps of dendrites $Xto D, Xsubset D$ and for positively oriented maps $f:Xto mathbb{C}, Xsubset mathbb{C}$ with the continuum $X$ not necessarily invariant. Then we show that in certain cases a holomorphic map $f:mathbb{C}tomathbb{C}$ must have a fixed point $a$ in a continuum $X$ so that either $ain mathrm{Int}(X)$ or $f$ exhibits rotation at $a$.
Let $X$ be a geodesic metric space with $H_1(X)$ uniformly generated. If $X$ has asymptotic dimension one then $X$ is quasi-isometric to an unbounded tree. As a corollary, we show that the asymptotic dimension of the curve graph of a compact, oriented surface with genus $g ge 2$ and one boundary component is at least two.
Let $G$ be connected nilpotent Lie group acting locally on a real surface $M$. Let $varphi$ be the local flow on $M$ induced by a $1$-parameter subgroup. Assume $K$ is a compact set of fixed points of $varphi$ and $U$ is a neighborhood of $K$ containing no other fixed points. Theorem: If the Dold fixed-point index of $varphi_t|U$ is nonzero for sufficiently small $t>0$, then ${rm Fix} (G) cap K e emptyset$.
