Abstract
For a cone C equipped with the Thompson metric and A ∈ C, we show that the translation map x {mapping} x + a is a strict contraction on any lower (or initial) set C ∩ x -C of the cone and derive an explicit formula for the Lipschitz constant. We apply our results to Stein equations, Riccati equations, and Ferrante-Levy equations on normal cones of Banach spaces to establish the existence, uniqueness and continuous dependence on parameters of positive solutions. © 2011 Springer Basel AG.
