Picard’s Existence and Uniqueness Theorem

Banach Fixed Point Theorem for Operators Let S denote the set of continuous functions on [a,b] that lie within a fixed distance ↵ > 0 of a given function yt(x) 2 C[a,b], i.e. S = {y 2 C[a,b]:ky ytk ↵}. Let G be an operator mapping S into S and suppose that G is a contraction on S, that is 9k 2 R,0 k<1 s. t. kG[w]G[z]k kkw zk8w,z 2 S.
