Here is a nonlinear compact operator: it is continuous and sends bounded subsets of to relatively compact subsets of . Equivalently, the images of any bounded input sequence have a norm-convergent subsequence.
The Schauder fixed-point theorem states that if is a nonempty closed bounded convex set in a Banach space and is continuous and compact, then . Linearity, a contraction estimate, and uniqueness are not assumptions or conclusions of this theorem.
