Application of Generalized Fixed Point Theorems to Ordinary Differential Equations
Abstract
Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) serve as a fundamental tool for modeling
various natural phenomena in science and engineering. The application of fixed point
theorems has proved to be a powerful technique in the study of the existence,
uniqueness, and stability of solutions to ODEs. However, traditional fixed point
theorems are limited to specific settings and may not be directly applicable to more
complex ODEs arising in practical scenarios.
In this research the Banach Contraction Fixed Point Theorems will be used, as well as
Schauder's Theorem and Picard Theorem. Said Theorems will be executed to ordinary
differential equations (ODE). The objective is to emphasize the utility of the different
fixed point theorems, when applying them to proofing the existence theorems and the
uniqueness theorems of the solutions of ODE in initial conditions or boundary
conditions.
