Fuzzy sets and fixed points (Q1093156)

Existence criteria for points x satisfying the condition \(F(x)(x)=1\) for fuzzy mappings F over compact convex subsets of topological vector spaces are given. The problem is a natural generalization of the standard fixed point problem for point-to-set mappings and it is interesting in Game Theory and in other fields of Mathematical Economics [see \textit{C. Ponsard} and \textit{B. Fustier} (ed.s): ``Fuzzy Economics and Spatial Analysis'', Collection de l'Institute de Mathématiques Economiques, Dijon (1986; Zbl 0616.90001) and the references therein].
