Noncompact-type Krasnoselskii fixed-point theorems and their applications

摘要

In this paper, we first establish some user-friendly versions of fixed-point theorems for the sum of two operators in the setting that the involved operators are not necessarily compact and continuous. These fixed-point results generalize, encompass, and complement a number of previously known generalizations of the Krasnoselskii fixed-point theorem. Next, with these obtained fixed-point results, we study the existence of solutions for a class of transport equations, the existence of global solutions for a class of Darboux problems on the first quadrant, the existence and/or uniqueness of periodic solutions for a class of difference equations, and the existence and/or uniqueness of solutions for some kind of perturbed Volterra-type integral equations.
