Random fixed-point theorems and approximation in cones (Q1336156)

A very general random fixed point theorem is first proved. As applications, some random approximation theorems and random fixed-point theorems are obtained. Recent results due to \textit{S. Itoh} [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 67, 261-273 (1979; Zbl 0407.60069)], \textit{T.-C. Lin} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 102, No. 3, 502-506 (1988; Zbl 0653.47033)], and \textit{H. Xu} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 110, No. 2, 395-400 (1990; 716.47029)] either are improved or are direct consequences of our results. The stochastic versions of the recent results of \textit{G. Li} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 97, 277-280 (1986; Zbl 0592.47046)] are also given.
