In this paper, we prove the following generalization of the classical Darbo fixed point principle : Let X be a Banach space and µ be a montone measure of noncompactness on X which satisfies the generalized Cantor intersection property. Let C be a nonempty bounded closed convex subset of X and T : C → C be a continuous mapping such that for any countable set Ω ⊂ C, we have µ(T(Ω)) ≤ kµ(Ω), where k is a constant, 0 ≤ k < 1. Then T has at least one fixed point in C. The proof is based on a combined use of topological methods and partial ordering techniques and relies on the Schauder and the Knaster-Tarski fixed point principles.

This paper deals with a new existence theory for periodic solutions to a broad class of evolution equations. We first establish new fixed point theorems for affine maps in locally convex spaces and ordered Banach spaces. Our new fixed point results extend, encompass and complement a number of well-known theorems in the literature, including the famous Chow and Hale fixed point theorem. With these obtained fixed point results, we investigate the existence of periodic solutions for some class of nonhomogeneous linear systems in Banach spaces with lack of compactness. Some illustrative examples are also given. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we introduce the concept of $(\alpha,\psi)$-rational type contractive mappings and provide sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a fixed point for such class of generalized nonlinear contractive mappings in the setting of generalized metric spaces. We also deduce several interesting corollaries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
