Abstract
In Chap. 9 we studied fixed point sets of group actions. Now we turn our attention to fixed point sets of continuous maps between finite spaces and their relationship with the fixed point sets of the associated simplicial maps. We analyze well-known results on the fixed point theory of finite posets from the perspective of finite spaces.
