Nonlinear functional analysis

Nonlinear functional analysis is a branch of mathematical analysis that deals with nonlinear mappings.

Topics

Its subject matter includes:

• generalizations of calculus to Banach spaces
• implicit function theorems
• fixed-point theorems (Brouwer fixed point theorem, Fixed point theorems in infinite-dimensional spaces, topological degree theory, Jordan separation theorem, Lefschetz fixed-point theorem)
• Morse theory and Lusternik–Schnirelmann category theory
• methods of complex function theory
