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.     

Some contractive type mappings and their applications to difference equations

We discuss a class of discrete dynamic systems in a complete metric space (M, d) defined by mappings which satisfy various types of contractive type conditions. Their variants in ordered Banach space are investigated and applied to solve the global asymptotic stability of the equilibriums of some discrete dynamic systems.     

Rayleigh dissipation from the general recurrence of metrics in path spaces

Given a pair (metric g, symmetric 2-covariant tensor field H though as a Rayleigh dissipation) on a path space (manifold M, semispray S), the family of nonlinear connections N such that H equals the dynamical derivative of g with respect to (S,N) is determined by using the Obata tensors. In this way, we generalize the case of metric nonlinear connections as well as that of recurrent metrics. As applications, we treat firstly the case of Finslerian (α,β)-metrics finding all nonlinear connections for which the associated Finsler-Sasaki metric is exactly the dynamical derivative of the Riemannian-Sasaki metric. Secondly, we apply our results for the case of Beil metrics used in Relativity and field theories.     

Isometries of the Half-Apollonian Metric

The half-Apollonian metric is a generalization of the hyperbolic metric, similar to the Apollonian metric. It can be defined in arbitrary domains in the euclidean space and has the advantages of being easy to calculate and estimate. We show that the half-Apollonian metric has many geodesics and use this fact to show that in most domains all the isometries of the metric are similarity mappings.

Causal analysis of futures sugar prices in Zhengzhou

In this paper, we are interested in investigating the causal relationships among futures sugar prices in the Zhengzhou futures exchange market (ZF), the spot sugar prices in Zhengzhou (ZS) and the futures sugar prices in New York futures exchange market (NF). A useful tool called Bayesian network is introduced to analyze the problem. Since there are only three variables in our Bayesian network, the algorithm is straightforward: we display all the 25 possible network structures and adopt certain scoring metrics to evaluate them. We applied five different scoring metrics in total. Firstly, for each metric, we obtained 24 scores, each calculated from one of the 24 possible structures i.e. a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG). Then we eliminated the network structure which represents the independence of the three variables according to our prior knowledge concerning the futures sugar market. After that, the optimal network structure which implies the causal relationships was selected according to the corresponding scoring metric. Finally, after comparing the results from different scoring metrics, we obtained the relatively affirmative conclusion that ZS causes ZF from both the Bayesian Dirichlet (BD) metric, Bayesian Dirichlet-Akaike Information Criterion (BD-AIC) metric, Bayesian Dirichlet-Bayesian Information Criterion (BD-BIC) metric and Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) metric. The conclusions that NF causes ZF and ZF causes ZS from the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) metric and ZF causes ZS from the BIC metric were useful and significant to our investigation.
