Caristi fixed-point theorem
In mathematics, the Caristi fixed-point theorem (also known as the Caristi–Kirk fixed-point theorem) generalizes the Banach fixed-point theorem for maps of a complete metric space into itself. Caristi's fixed-point theorem modifies the ε {\displaystyle \varepsilon } -variational principle of Ekeland (1974, 1979).
