PARK, VJM 27 (1999) [31]--This historical article is to survey the developments of the fields of mathematics directly related to the nearly ninety-year-old Brouwer fixed point theorem. We are mainly concerned with equivalent formulations and generalizations of the theorem.

ON VARIOUS MULTIMAP CLASSES IN THE KKM THEORY AND THEIR APPLICATIONS

Hence, applying Brouwer fixed point theorem to the operator f[(m).sup.1/[sigma]] (see, e.g., [18]), we see that the operator has a fixed point in L([w.bar],[bar.w]).
