Vector variational inequalities on Hadamard manifolds involving strongly geodesic convex functions

This paper is intended to study the vector variational inequalities on Hadamard manifolds. Generalized Minty and Stampacchia vector variational inequalities are introduced involving generalized subdifferential. Under strongly geodesic convexity, relations between solutions of these inequalities and a nonsmooth vector optimization problem are established. To illustrate the relationship between a solution of generalized weak Stampacchia vector variational inequality and weak efficiency of a nonsmooth vector optimization problem, a non-trivial example is presented.     

A Helly theorem for geodesic convexity in strongly dismantlable graphs

A (finite or infinite) graph G is strongly dismantlable if its vertices can be linearly ordered x₀,…, x so that, for each ordinal β < , there exists a strictly increasing finite sequence (i_j)_{0 j n} of ordinals such that i₀ = β, i_n = and x_ij+1 is adjacent with x_ij and with all neighbors of x_ij in the subgraph ofG induced by {x_y: β γ }. We show that the Helly number for the geodesic convexity of such a graph equals its clique number. This generalizes a result of Bandelt and Mulder (1990) for dismantlable graphs. We also get an analogous equality dealing with infinite families of convex sets.     

The Schauder fixed point theorem in geodesic spaces

We give a direct proof of Schauder's fixed point theorem in the setting of geodesic metric spaces, generalizing the classical Schauder's theorem and improving a recent version of this theorem in CAT(κ)$\mathrm{CAT}(\kappa )$ spaces. As an application we prove an existence result for a variational inequality in the setting of CAT(κ)$\mathrm{CAT}(\kappa )$ spaces.     

Existence and stability of solutions for maximal element theorem on Hadamard manifolds with applications

In this paper, maximal element theorem on Hadamard manifolds is established. First, we prove the existence of solutions for maximal element theorem on Hadamard manifolds. Further, we prove that most of problems in maximal element theorem on Hadamard manifolds (in the sense of Baire category) are essential and that, for any problem in maximal element theorem on Hadamard manifolds, there exists at least one essential component of its solution set. As applications, we study existence and stability of solutions for variational relation problems on Hadamard manifolds, and existence and stability of weakly Pareto-Nash equilibrium points for n-person multi-objective games on Hadamard manifolds.     

A fixed point theorem with applications to truncated lattices

We prove a fixed point theorem related to the set P2 of [17]. The result gives access to nontrivial infinite ordered sets with the fixed point property. We also show how the result can be used to provide an elementary proof of part of Baclawski and Björner’s results on truncated lattices.Dedicated to the memory of Ivan RivalReceived December 1, 2002; accepted in final form June 18, 2004.This revised version was published online in August 2005 with a corrected cover date.     

Dynamical systems for solving variational inclusion and fixed point problems on Hadamard manifolds

In this paper, we investigate a new class of dynamical systems for solving variational inclusion and fixed point problems on Hadamard manifolds. Then we prove that the dynamical system has a unique solution under some suitable assumptions. Moreover, the global exponential stability and invariance property of the dynamical systems are also established. Our main results in this work are new and extend the existing ones in the literature.     

The Fary-Milnor theorem in Hadamard manifolds

The Fary-Milnor theorem is generalized: Let be a simple closed curve in a complete simply connected Riemannian 3-manifold of nonpositive sectional curvature. If has total curvature less than or equal to , then is the boundary of an embedded disk. The example of a trefoil knot which moves back and forth abritrarily close to a geodesic segment shows that the bound is sharp in any such space. The original theorem was for closed curves in Euclidean 3-space and the proof by integral geometry did not apply to spaces of variable curvature. Now, instead, a combinatorial proof has been devised.

     

On a fixed point theorem in Banach algebras with applications

In this article it is shown that some of the hypotheses of a fixed point theorem of the present author [B.C. Dhage, On some variants of Schauder’s fixed point principle and applications to nonlinear integral equations, J. Math. Phys. Sci. 25 (1988) 603–611] involving two operators in a Banach algebra are redundant. Our claim is also illustrated with the applications to some nonlinear functional integral equations for proving the existence results.     

A concentration theorem of expanders on Hadamard manifolds

In this note, we prove a concentration theorem of expanders. As a simple corollary, one can prove that expanding sequences of graphs do not admit coarse embeddings into Hadamard manifolds with bounded sectional curvatures.     

A NOVEL FIXED POINT THEOREM AND ITS APPLICATIONS

In this article, a novel fixed point theorem in C[0,1] space is established by using the properties of fixed point index. This theorem is then applied to prove the existence of positive solutions for three-point boundary value problems and generalizes some previous results.     

A new fixed point theorem and its applications

A common fixed point theorem with applications to vector equilibrium problems

In this paper, using the Brouwer fixed point theorem, we establish a common fixed point theorem for a family of set-valued mappings. As applications of this result we obtain existence theorems for the solutions of two types of vector equilibrium problems, a Ky Fan-type minimax inequality and a generalization of a known result due to Iohvidov.     

A generalization of Browder’s fixed point theorem with applications

In this paper, the concept of c$c$-compact mapping is introduced. A generalization of Browder’s fixed point theorem and some equivalence forms are given. As applications, the existence of solutions for some variational inequalities and monotone operator equations is discussed.     

Compression-expansion fixed point theorem in two norms and applications

In this paper we present a two-norms version of Krasnoselskii's fixed point theorem in cones. The abstract result is then applied to prove the existence of positive Lp solutions of Hammerstein integral equations with better integrability properties on the kernels.     

The characteristic of noncompact convexity and random fixed point theorem for set-valued operators

Let (Ω, Σ) be a measurable space, X a Banach space whose characteristic of noncompact convexity is less than 1, C a bounded closed convex subset of X, KC(C) the family of all compact convex subsets of C. We prove that a set-valued nonexpansive mapping T: C → KC(C) has a fixed point. Furthermore, if X is separable then we also prove that a set-valued nonexpansive operator T: Ω × C → KC(C) has a random fixed point.     

Proximal point method for vector optimization on Hadamard manifolds

In this paper, the proximal point method for vector optimization and its inexact version are extended from Euclidean space to the Riemannian context. Under suitable assumptions on the objective function, the well-definedness of the methods is established. In addition, the convergence of any generated sequence to a weak efficient point is obtained.

An integral type fixed point theorem for multi-valued mappings employing strongly tangential property

Sintunavarat and Kumam (W. Sintunavarat, P. Kumam, Gregus-type common fixed point theorems for tangential multi-valued mappings of integral type in metric spaces, Int. J. Math. Math. Sci. 2011 12 (Article ID 923458)) extended the tangential property to hybrid pair of mappings which generalizes the idea of tangential property due to Pathak and Shahzad (H.K. Pathak, N. Shahzad, Gregus type fixed point results for tangential mappings satisfying contractive conditions of integral type, Bull. Belg. Math. Soc. Simon Stevin 16(2) (2009) 277–288). In the present paper, we introduce the notion of strong tangential property and utilize the same to prove an integral type metrical common fixed point theorem for non-self mappings. An illustrative example is also furnished to support our main result. Our results are corrected, improved and generalized versions of a multitude of relevant common fixed point theorems of the existing literature.     

Rate of convergence for proximal point algorithms on Hadamard manifolds

In this paper, an estimate of convergence rate concerned with an inexact proximal point algorithm for the singularity of maximal monotone vector fields on Hadamard manifolds is discussed. We introduce a weaker growth condition, which is an extension of that of Luque from Euclidean spaces to Hadamard manifolds. Under the growth condition, we prove that the inexact proximal point algorithm has linear/superlinear convergence rate. The main results presented in this paper generalize and improve some corresponding known results.
