In [8] and [9], Krasnosel'skiĭ proved several fundamental fixed point principles for operators leaving invariant a cone in a Banach space. In [11], Nussbaum extended one of the results, the theorem about compression and expansion of a cone, to condensing maps and he applied this theorem to prove the existence of periodic solutions of nonlinear autonomous functional differential equations.

Nussbaum's proof makes an essential use of the difficult Zabreiko and Krasnosel'skiĭ, and Steinlein (mod p)-theorem for the fixed point index [13 -16]. In [6], Fournier and Peitgen proved two different versions of this theorem for completely continuous maps each one being sufficient for Nussbaum's applications. The proofs of these two theorems are much less involved and, although they are different, they make use of the same easier generalized Lefschetz number calculations (see [12] for (mod p) and [5] for compact attractor).
