Fixed points, periodic points and chaotic dynamics for continuous maps with applications to population dynamics

Abstract

We introduce a topological method for the search of fixed points and periodic points for continuous maps defined on rectangular domains in finite dimensional Euclidean spaces. We name our technique the \u201dStretching Along the Paths\u201d (SAP) method, since we deal with maps that expand the arcs (paths) along one direction
