To do this, we inspire with the notion of a Zamfirescu mapping. Also, we consider a recent problem called the \"fixed-circle problem\" and propose a new solution to this problem as an application of our technique.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-10-27T17:21:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "54H25", "47H09", "47H10" ], "keywords": [ "open problem", "application", "fixed-circle problem", "discontinuity" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
