This text is devoted to the topological fixed point theory both for single-valued and multivalued mappings in locally convex spaces, including its application to boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations (inclusions) and to (multivalued) dynamical systems. It deals with the topological fixed point theory in non-metric spaces. Although the theoretical material was tendentiously selected with respect to applications, the text is self-contained. Therefore, three appendices concerning almost-periodic and derivo-periodic single-valued (multivalued) functions and (multivalued) fractals are supplied to the main three chapters. In Chapter I, the topological and analytical background is built. Then, in Chapter II, topological principles necessary for applications are developed. Finally, in Chapter III, boundary value problems for differential equations and inclusions are investigated in detail by means of the results in Chapter II. This monograph should be especially useful for post-graduade students and researchers interested in topological methods in nonlinear analysis, particularly in differential equations, differential inclusions and (multivalued) dynamical systems. The content is also likely to stimulate the interest of mathematical economists, population dynamics experts as well as theoretical physicists exploring the topological dynamics.
