The non-Hausdorff Brouwer fixed point conjecture
The non-Hausdorff Brouwer fixed point conjecture
Let be a topological space equipped with maps lying in both indicated right-orthogonal classes: the class generated by the finite-space maps and , and the double orthogonal of the maps between finite spaces of size less than used to characterize proper maps. The non-Hausdorff Brouwer fixed point conjecture. Every endomorphism of has a fixed point. The assertion extends the Brouwer fixed point theorem beyond Hausdorff spaces; the paper proves it for separable metric spaces but leaves the general case open.
