Suppose $A\subseteq \mathbb R^m$ is closed and non-empty. Let $f:A\to A$ is a lipchitz function with constant less than 1. (ie there exist $c<1$ that $|f(x)-f(y)|<c|x-y|,\ \forall x,y \in A)$. Prove that there exists a unique point $x\in A$ such that $f(x)=x$.

For an arbitrary ordinal number $\alpha$ let $H(\alpha)$ denote the set of functions $f\colon \alpha \rightarrow \{ -1,0,1\}$ that map all but finitely many elements of $\alpha$ to $0$. Order $H(\alpha)$ according to the last difference, that is, for $f, g\in H(\alpha)$ let $f\prec g$ if $f(\beta) < g(\beta)$ holds for the maximum ordinal number $\beta < \alpha$ with $f(\beta) \neq g(\beta)$. Prove that the ordered set $(H(\alpha), \prec)$ is scattered (i.e. it doesn't contain a subset isomorphic to the set of rational numbers with the usual order), and that any scattered order type can be embedded into some $(H(\alpha), \prec)$.
