Brouwer fixed point in one dimension


Theorem 1 [1, adams]Suppose f is a continuous functionMathworldPlanetmathf:[-1,1][-1,1]. Then f has a fixed point, i.e.,there is a x such that f(x)=x.

Proof (Following [1])We can assume that f(-1)>-1 and f(+1)<1, since otherwisethere is nothing to prove. Then, consider the function g:[-1,1]defined by g(x)=f(x)-x. It satisfies

g(+1)<0,
g(-1)>0,

so by the intermediate value theorem, there is a point xsuch that g(x)=0, i.e., f(x)=x.

Assuming slightly more of the function f yields theBanach fixed point theoremMathworldPlanetmath. In one dimensionMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath it states the following:

Theorem 2 Suppose f:[-1,1][-1,1] is a function that satisfies thefollowing condition:

  • for some constant C[0,1), we have for each a,b[-1,1],

    |f(b)-f(a)|C|b-a|.

Then f has a unique fixed point in [-1,1]. In other words, there existsone and only one point x[-1,1] such that f(x)=x.

RemarksThe fixed point in Theorem 2 can be found by iteration from any s[-1,1] as follows:first choose some s[-1,1].Then form s1=f(s), then s2=f(s1), and generally sn=f(sn-1).As n, sn approaches the fixed point for f. More detailsare given on the entry for the Banach fixed point theorem.A function that satisfies thecondition in Theorem 2 is called a contraction mapping. Such mappings also satisfy theLipschitz conditionMathworldPlanetmath (http://planetmath.org/LipschitzCondition).
