Let be a nondegenerate and closed interval $ I $ of real numbers, a short map $ m:I\longrightarrow I, $ and a sequence of functions $ \left( x_n \right)_{n\ge 1} :I\longrightarrow\mathbb{R} $ such that $ x_1 $ is the identity map and $$ 2x_{n+1}=x_n+m\circ x_n , $$ for any natural numbers $ n. $ Prove that: [b]a)[/b] there exists a nondegenerate interval having the property that any point of it is a fixed point for $ m. $ [b]b)[/b] $ \left( x_n \right)_{n\ge 1} $ is pointwise convergent and that its limit function is a short map.
