In this paper we prove a few fixed points theorems of Leray-Schauder type in hyperconvex metric spaces.

     

The Generic Stability of Fixed Points for Upper Semicontinuous Mappings in Hyperconvex Metric Spaces

The main goal of this paper is to establish the generic stability of Fan-Glicksberg type fixed points in hyperconvex metric spaces. In order to do so, we first give Fan-Glicksberg type fixed point theorem in hyperconvex metric spaces and then the generic stability of fixed points for upper semicontinuous set-valued mappings is obtained. Our generic stability results show that almost all of fixed points of upper semicontinuous set-valued mappings defined in compact hyperconvex metric spaces are stable in the sense of Baire category theory     

The Minding formula and its applications

We apply the Minding Formula for geodesic curvature and the Gauss-Bonnet Formula to calculate the total Gaussian curvature of certain 2-dimensional open complete branched Riemannian manifolds, the M\cal M surfaces. We prove that for an M\cal M surface, the total curvature depends only on its Euler characteristic and the local behaviour of its metric at ends and branch points. Then we check that many important surfaces, such as complete minimal surfaces in \Bbb Rⁿ{\Bbb R}^n with finite total curvature, complete constant mean curvature surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space H³ (–1) with finite total curvature, are actually branch point free M\cal M surfaces. Therefore as corollaries we give simple proofs of some classical theorems such as the Chern-Osserman theorem for complete minimal surfaces in \Bbb Rⁿ{\Bbb R}^n with finite total curvature. For the reader's convenience, we also derive the Minding Formula.     

Ramsey-Milman phenomenon,Urysohn metric spaces,and extremely amenable groups

In this paper we further study links between concentration of measure in topological transformation groups, existence of fixed points, and Ramsey-type theorems for metric spaces. We prove that whenever the group Iso of isometries of Urysohn’s universal complete separable metric space , equipped with the compact-open topology, acts upon an arbitrary compact space, it has a fixed point. The same is true if is replaced with any generalized Urysohn metric spaceU that is sufficiently homogeneous. Modulo a recent theorem by Uspenskij that every topological group embeds into a topological group of the form Iso(U), our result implies that every topological group embeds into an extremely amenable group (one admitting an invariant multiplicative mean on bounded right uniformly continuous functions). By way of the proof, we show that every topological group is approximated by finite groups in a certain weak sense. Our technique also results in a new proof of the extreme amenability (fixed point on compacta property) for infinite orthogonal groups. Going in the opposite direction, we deduce some Ramsey-type theorems for metric subspaces of Hilbert spaces and for spherical metric spaces from existing results on extreme amenability of infinite unitary groups and groups of isometries of Hilbert spaces.     

A selection theorem for quasi-lower semicontinuous mappings in hyperconvex spaces

We prove a continuous selection theorem for quasi-lower semicontinuous mappings with values that are closed sub-admissible subsets of a hyperconvex metric space and apply this result to obtain fixed point theorems in these spaces.     

Holomorphic Curves on Hyperplane Sections of 3-Folds

In this paper we prove a conjectured height inequality of Lang and Vojta for holomorphic curves lying on generic hyperplane sections of 3-folds. As a consequence we deduce a conjecture of Kobayashi that a generic hypersurface in \Bbb P³_{\Bbb C} {\Bbb P}^3_{\Bbb C} of sufficiently high degree is hyperbolic.     

A lower bound on the energy of travelling waves of fixed speed for the Gross-Pitaevskii equation

In this paper we consider the Gross-Pitaevskii equation iu _t = Δu + u(1 − |u|²), where u is a complex-valued function defined on \Bbb R^N×\Bbb R{\Bbb R}^N\times{\Bbb R} , N ≥ 2, and in particular the travelling waves, i.e., the solutions of the form u(x, t) = ν(x ₁ − ct, x ₂, …, x _N ), where c ? \Bbb Rc\in{\Bbb R} is the speed. We prove for c fixed the existence of a lower bound on the energy of any non-constant travelling wave. This bound provides a non-existence result for non-constant travelling waves of fixed speed having small energy.     

New fixed point theorems for $${\alpha}$$-$${H\Theta}$$HΘ-contractions in ordered metric spaces

Recently, Jleli and Samet [J. Inequal. Appl. (2014), 2014:38] introduced and studied a new contraction to prove a generalization of the Banach contraction principle. In this paper, we introduce the concept of \({\alpha}\)-\({H\Theta}\)-contraction with respect to a general family of functions H and we establish Jleli–Samet-type fixed point results in metric and ordered metric spaces. As an application of our results we deduce Suzuki-type fixed point results for \({H\Theta}\)-contractions. We also derive certain fixed and periodic point results for orbitally continuous generalized \({\Theta}\)-contractions. Moreover, we present an illustrative example to highlight the obtained improvements.     

Arithmetic progressions in sumsets

We prove several results concerning arithmetic progressions in sets of integers. Suppose, for example, that a \alpha and b \beta are positive reals, that N is a large prime and that C,D í \Bbb Z/N\Bbb Z C,D \subseteq {\Bbb Z}/N{\Bbb Z} have sizes gN \gamma N and dN \delta N respectively. Then the sumset C + D contains an AP of length at least e^{c ?{log} N} e^{c \sqrt{\rm log} N} , where c > 0 depends only on g \gamma and d \delta . In deriving these results we introduce the concept of hereditary non-uniformity (HNU) for subsets of \Bbb Z/N\Bbb Z {\Bbb Z}/N{\Bbb Z} , and prove a structural result for sets with this property.     

Conjugates of Rational Equivariant Holomorphic Maps of Symmetric Domains

Let t: D ?D￠\tau: {\cal D} \rightarrow{\cal D}^\prime be an equivariant holomorphic map of symmetric domains associated to a homomorphism r: \Bbb G ?\Bbb G￠{\bf\rho}: {\Bbb G} \rightarrow{\Bbb G}^\prime of semisimple algebraic groups defined over \Bbb Q{\Bbb Q} . If G ì \Bbb G (\Bbb Q)\Gamma\subset {\Bbb G} ({\Bbb Q}) and G￠ ì \Bbb G￠(\Bbb Q)\Gamma^\prime \subset {\Bbb G}^\prime ({\Bbb Q}) are torsion-free arithmetic subgroups with r (G) ì G￠{\bf\rho} (\Gamma) \subset \Gamma^\prime , the map G\D ?G￠\D￠\Gamma\backslash {\cal D} \rightarrow\Gamma^\prime \backslash {\cal D}^\prime of arithmetic varieties and the rationality of D{\cal D} and D￠{\cal D}^\prime as well as the commensurability groups of s ? Aut (\Bbb C)\sigma \in {\rm Aut} ({\Bbb C}) determines a conjugate equivariant holomorphic map t^s: D^s ?D^￠s\tau^\sigma: {\cal D}^\sigma \rightarrow{\cal D}^{\prime\sigma} of f^s: (G\D)^s ?(G￠\D￠)^s\phi^\sigma: (\Gamma\backslash {\cal D})^\sigma \rightarrow(\Gamma^\prime \backslash {\cal D}^\prime)^\sigma of . We prove that is rational if is rational.     

Covering and packing in \Bbb Zn{\Bbb Z}^n and \Bbb Rn{\Bbb R}^n, (I)

Given a finite subset A{\cal A} of an additive group \Bbb G{\Bbb G} such as \Bbb Zⁿ{\Bbb Z}^n or \Bbb Rⁿ{\Bbb R}^n , we are interested in efficient covering of \Bbb G{\Bbb G} by translates of A{\cal A} , and efficient packing of translates of A{\cal A} in \Bbb G{\Bbb G} . A set S ì \Bbb G{\cal S} \subset {\Bbb G} provides a covering if the translates A + s{\cal A} + s with s ? Ss \in {\cal S} cover \Bbb G{\Bbb G} (i.e., their union is \Bbb G{\Bbb G} ), and the covering will be efficient if S{\cal S} has small density in \Bbb G{\Bbb G} . On the other hand, a set S ì \Bbb G{\cal S} \subset {\Bbb G} will provide a packing if the translated sets A + s{\cal A} + s with s ? Ss \in {\cal S} are mutually disjoint, and the packing is efficient if S{\cal S} has large density. In the present part (I) we will derive some facts on these concepts when \Bbb G = \Bbb Zⁿ{\Bbb G} = {\Bbb Z}^n , and give estimates for the minimal covering densities and maximal packing densities of finite sets A ì \Bbb Zⁿ{\cal A} \subset {\Bbb Z}^n . In part (II) we will again deal with \Bbb G = \Bbb Zⁿ{\Bbb G} = {\Bbb Z}^n , and study the behaviour of such densities under linear transformations. In part (III) we will turn to \Bbb G = \Bbb Rⁿ{\Bbb G} = {\Bbb R}^n .     

Une Dualité Pour Les Courbes Hyperconvexes

An hyperconvex curve is a curve ξ¹ in such that any n distinct points of the curve are in direct sum. We give here a property of duality of those curves when they admit furthermore an osculating flag. Namely if is a continuous curve of osculating flags of an hyperconvex curve ξ¹, we prove that the curve ξ^n-1 is hyperconvex too and admit a curve of osculating flags.Mathematics Subject Classiffications (2000). 22E40, 53C35     

Fixed point theorems of upper semicontinuous multivalued mappings with applications in hyperconvex metric spaces

In the present paper, we establish two fixed point theorems for upper semicontinuous multivalued mappings in hyperconvex metric spaces and apply these to study coincidence point problems and minimax problems.     

Some new extensions of Edelstein-Suzuki-type fixed point theorem to G-metric and G-cone metric spaces

In this paper, we prove some fixed point theorems for generalized contractions in the setting of G-metric spaces. Our results extend a result of Edelstein [M. Edelstein, On fixed and periodic points under contractive mappings, J. London Math. Soc., 37 (1962), 74–79] and a result of Suzuki [T. Suzuki, A new type of fixed point theorem in metric spaces, Nonlinear Anal., 71 (2009), 5313–5317]. We prove, also, a fixed point theorem in the setting of G-cone metric spaces.

A Seidel-Walsh theorem with linear differential operators

Assume that {S_n}₁^￥ \{S_n\}_1^\infty is a sequence of automorphisms of the open unit disk \Bbb D{\Bbb D} and that {T_n}₁^￥\{T_n\}_1^\infty is a sequence of linear differential operators with constant coefficients, both of them satisfying suitable conditions. We prove that for certain spaces X of holomorphic functions in the open unit disk, the set of functions f ? Xf \in X such that {(T_n f) °S_n:  n ? \Bbb N}\{(T_n\,f) \circ S_n: \, n \in {\Bbb N}\} is dense in H(\Bbb D)H({\Bbb D}) is residual in X. This extends the Seidel-Walsh theorem together with some subsequent results.     

Fixed points, selections and common fixed points for nonexpansive-type mappings

We study the existence of fixed points in the context of uniformly convex geodesic metric spaces, hyperconvex spaces and Banach spaces for single and multivalued mappings satisfying conditions that generalize the concept of nonexpansivity. Besides, we use the fixed point theorems proved here to give common fixed point results for commuting mappings.     

Comments on some fixed point theorems in hyperconvex metric spaces

In this paper, we show that a number of known fixed point theorems for the Fan-Browder type maps or acyclic maps defined on (subsets of) hyperconvex metric spaces are simple consequences of the previously known theorems for corresponding maps defined on generalized convex spaces.     

Constant angle surfaces in \Bbb S2×\Bbb R {\Bbb S}^2\times {\Bbb R}

In this article we study surfaces in \Bbb S²×\Bbb R {\Bbb S}^2\times {\Bbb R} for which the unit normal makes a constant angle with the \Bbb R {\Bbb R} -direction. We give a complete classification for surfaces satisfying this simple geometric condition.     

Lagrangian barriers and symplectic embeddings

We prove that every symplectic Kähler manifold (M;W) (M;\Omega) with integral [W] [\Omega] decomposes into a disjoint union (M,W) = (E,w₀) \coprod D (M,\Omega) = (E,\omega_0) \coprod \Delta , where (E,w₀) (E,\omega_0) is a disc bundle endowed with a standard symplectic form w₀ \omega_0 and D \Delta is an isotropic CW-complex. We perform explicit computations of this decomposition on several examples.¶As an application we establish the following symplectic intersection phenomenon: There exist symplectically irremovable intersections between contractible domains and Lagrangian submanifolds. For example, we prove that every symplectic embedding j:B²ⁿ(l) ? \Bbb CPⁿ \varphi:B^{2n}(\lambda) \to {\Bbb C}P^n of a ball of radius l² 3 1/2 \lambda^2 \ge 1/2 must intersect the standard Lagrangian real projective space \Bbb RPⁿ ì \Bbb CPⁿ {\Bbb R}P^n \subset {\Bbb C}P^n .
