If you have a question about this talk, please contact George Kaye. Abstract Some messy history of messy classical proofs and a simple constructive proof with applications to messy algebra. I will survey the history of classical and constructive fixed point theorems in order theory, demonstrating that most of the attributions are wrong and why not to use transfinite recursion. I will conclude with a constructive theorem that can do everything that the older ones could do, but has a simpler proof and is easier to use. slides and paperThis talk is part of the Theoretical computer science seminar series.
