On triangle contractive operators in Hilbert spaces
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2008
Abstract
Let H be a finite dimensional real or complex Hilbert space. We denote by Λ(x, y, z) the area of the triangle with vertices x, y, z ∈ H. A map f: H → H is triangle contractive TC if 0 < α < 1 and for each x, y, z ∈ H either
or
and
and
We prove that if f is TC either there is a fixed point w = f(w) or a fixed line L = ⊃ f(L) We characterize the f which are TC and continuous but have no fixed point.
