I love it when people make intuitive explanations for theorems like these. True, it's not a rigorous proof, but it is more useful if you want to actually understand a concept and connect it to what you already know (like the intermediate value theorem in this case).

That is a thorougly and very clear explanation. Thank you so much 🙂

Now that's a different cup of tea. Kudos for my fellow country man Bertus Brouwer, and for your video. Love it.

I've always loved this theorem ❤️

Banach fixed point theorem is better imo

great job! I think it's a crime not to teach Maths concept like this in the first iteration. Only later can the formulas come.

you ate with the animation and explanation

this is beautiful . thank you

Beautiful!

Such a cool explanation, i love it!

very well explained!

You have nice videos! How do you make your animations? They look very good

Didn't understand it on text. Now i do. Thanks.

Wonderful explanation but I think in the tea cup example the fixed point is only valid for a given time. Every time will have some fixed point. The fixed point will appear to be moving, like the eye of the hurricane.

This is a great video

Just wow for this .

Nice explanation! I am making rn the video about this theorem with manim too, but I am going to present the proof with the help of homology functor

I enjoyed the vector animations, they were very well done. However, I'm worried the assumption you make at 3:45-4:15 is incorrect. In particular, there is no guarantee that we may trace a continuous path of vertical vectors (or, transform continuously between the vertical vectors) in the manner you show, for arbitrary functions satisfying the BFT hypotheses. Indeed, any curve we trace from the 'leftward mapping' to the 'rightward mapping' vectors must contain a point which maps vertically, as the IVT immediately shows. But, there is no guarantee that we can trace a (continuous) curve, comprised of such points, with endpoints mapping in opposite directions; it is *not* in general true that to any point 'x' which maps vertically, a sequence of points that map vertically and that converge to 'x' can be found on subsequent curves connecting the left and right pointing vectors. In other words, there is no guarantee that, e.g., an initial curve of downward mapping points will not suddenly terminate in your construction.

The fixed point in a circle reminds me of a hurricane eye. I wonder if there is a correlation?

This is a neat theorem

You got me lost at the moment you drew that line(orange and blue) on a circle. Why is it that curvy? Is it random? and also what does this line represent?

I love topology

Great video, but I don’t understand why a vector that goes after the one pointing up can’t just point down. In 1D I when a line is tilted right the next one can just tilt left to the previous point.

They do that but at the fixed point, that's why the surface must be continous so the transition from up to down is gradual

What are the prerequisites for this video? I don't understand. “Points that stay the same after some transformation…” how can a point stay the same after being transformed?

f(x)=x is the identity map, yet it is a transformation.

In another video a guy said that shaking the coffee would violate the theorem, is that true? why?

Stirring can be approximated as a continuous transformation (of coffee molecules' positions) from the original volume into itself, at least if it is stirred very gently. Shaking is neither continuous nor volume preserving.

0:39 That's a weird analogy, mixing feels like a pretty discontinuous map. In fact for point particles the probability that that happens is zero but eh, now I'm being overly picky tbh. I think Brouwer did think about this from observing that one point in the coffee (as ripples pass around) is always perfectly still? Something like that. I really liekd the video. Subbed!

Because it's a three dimensional fluid with independent molecules that have no reason to stay where they are. The theorem works in three dimensions for sure, just not with something like coffee.
