Abstract: We prove a generalization of the Poincar'e-Birkhoff theorem for the open annulus showing that if a homeomorphism satisfies a certain twist condition and the nonwandering set is connected, then there is a fixed point. Our main focus is the study of bounded homeomorphisms of the open annulus. We prove a fixed point theorem for bounded homeomorphisms and study the special case of those homeomorphisms possessing at most one fixed point. Lastly we use the existence of rational rotation numbers to prove the existence of periodic orbits.

Review text

Given a locally compact space \(X\) and a homeomorphism on \(X\), a window is a compact set \(W\subset X\) such that all forward orbits intersect \(W\). A homeomorphism with a window is called bounded. This terminology is justified because the existence of a window is equivalent to the existence of a compact set attracting all orbits. The authors consider bounded homeomorphisms of the open annulus and extend to this class some known results for homeomorphisms of the closed annulus. These results concern the existence of fixed points and rotation numbers. The paper also contains a topological version of the Poincaré-Birkhoff theorem inspired by a result due to \textit{J. Franks} [Ann. Math. (2) 128, 139-151 (1988; Zbl 0676.58037)].
