We give several applications of this theory, concerning: 1) differentiability and geometrical properties of the distance function to a closed subset $C$ of $M$; 2) solvability and implicit function theorems for nonsmooth functions on $M$; 3) conditions on the existence of a circumcenter for three different points of $M$; and especially 4) fixed point theorems for expansive and nonexpansive mappings and certain perturbations of such mappings defined on $M$.27 pagesDifferential GeometryOptimization and Control58E30; 49J52; 58C30; 47H10Proximal calculus on Riemannian manifolds, with applications to fixed point theorytext
