We present a logic for the specification of static analysis problems that goes beyond the logics traditionally used. Its most prominent feature is the direct support for both inductive computations of behaviors as well as co-inductive specifications of ...

The multiplicativity of fixed point invariants
We prove two general factorization theorems for fixed-point invariants of fibrations: one for the Lefschetz number and one for the Reidemeister trace. These theorems imply the familiar multiplicativity results for the Lefschetz and Nielsen numbers of a ...

Infrared fixed point in quantum Einstein gravity [PDF]
We performed the renormalization group analysis of the quantum Einstein gravity in the deep infrared regime for different types of extensions of the model.

Fixed Points of Isometries [PDF]
The purpose of this paper is to prove the followingTheorem. Let M be a Riemannian manifold of dimension n and let ξ be a Killing vector field (i.e., infinitesimal isometry) of M. Let F be the set of points x of M where ξ vanishes and let F = ∪ Vi, where the Vi’s are the connected components of F. Then (assuming F to be non-empty)

On characterizations of fixed points [PDF]
We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of fixed points of a family of self mappings of a metric space and we establish an equivalent condition for the existence of fixed points of a continuous compact mapping of a metric space.

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Understanding Fixed Point Theorems [PDF]
Fixed point theorems are the standard tool used to prove the existence of equilibria in mathematical economics. This paper shows how to prove a slight generalization of Brouwer's and Kakutani's fixed point theorems using the familiar techniques of ...

Fixed points and boundaries [PDF]
A lemma of Ludvik Janos is used to show that if a nonexpansive self-map T T of a compact set X X is contractive on Δ ′ X \Delta ’X , the boundary of X X in co ¯ X ...

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Unique fixed points vs. least fixed points
AbstractThe aim of this paper is to compare two approaches to the semantics of programming languages: the least fixed point approach, and the unique fixed point approach. Briefly speaking, we investigate here the problem of existence of extensions of algebras with the unique fixed point property to ordered algebras with the least fixed point property ...
