on X An equation with iteration as its main operation is simply called an iterative equation.
the problem of iterative roots2,5,6, that is, finding f ∈ CX, X such that f nis identical

As a natural generalization of the problem of iterative roots, a class of iterative equations which is called polynomial-like iterative equation:

By means of this method, Zhang and Si made a series of works concerning these qualitative

Proof Suppose that f is not surjective Let x0∈ D N \fD N If x0∈ S N−1, then f0is homotopic
to a constant and degf0 0, a contradiction So x0/ ∈ S N−1, then there exists a retraction

P defined on CB, B, 0, M, g such that
Pf ∈ CB, A, αM, ∞, T, ∀f ∈ CB, B, 0, M, g
Then, for any F ∈ CB, A, 0, K, T ◦ g, there exists a f ∈ CB, B, 0, M, g such that
Furthermore, if P is Lipschitz with a Lipschitz constant d which satisfies d/αM < 1, then f is unique, and f depends continuously on F.
