On homotopy of volterrian quadratic stochastic operators
In the present paper we introduce a notion of homotopy of two Volterra operators which is related to fixed points of such operators. We establish a criterion for determining when two Volterra operators are homotopic, and as a consequence we obtain that the corresponding tournaments of that operator...

Summary: | In the present paper we introduce a notion of homotopy of two Volterra operators which is related to fixed points of such operators. We establish a criterion for determining
when two Volterra operators are homotopic, and as a consequence we obtain that the corresponding tournaments of that operators are the same. This, due to [3], gives us a
possibility to know some information about the trajectory of homotopic Volterra operators. Moreover, it is shown that any Volterra q.s.o. given on a face has at least two
homotopic extension to the whole simplex. |
