Proof of Fixed Point Theorem for a Continuous Function From [0,1] to [0,1]

Theorem

Ifis continuous thenexists such that

Proof

A continuous image of a connected set is connected since connectedness is preserved by continuity, so the image of the connected setisforThis is illustrated below.

Hence the graph ofmust intersect the diagonal fromtohenceexists such that
