Sperner’s lemma: generalizations and applications (Oleg Musin, UT Rio Grande Valley)

The classical Sperner -  KKM (Knaster - Kuratowski - Mazurkiewicz) lemma has many applications  in combinatorics, algorithms, game theory and mathematical economics. In this talk we consider generalizations of this lemma as well as Gale's colored KKM lemma and Shapley's KKMS theorem. It is shown that spaces and covers can be much more general and […]
