A version of Rolle's theorem and applications

This paper deals with global injectivity of vector fields defined on euclidean spaces. Our main result establishes a version of Rolle's Theorem under generalized Palais-Smale conditions. As a consequence of this, we prove global injectivity for a class of vector fields defined on n-dimensional spaces.Research partially supported by CNPq/Brazil under grant # 307014/89-4Research partially supported by CNPq/Brazil under grant # 301251/78-9

On Osgood theorem in Banach spaces

Let X be a real Banach space, ω : [0, +∞) → ? be an increasing continuous function such that ω(0) = 0 and ω(t + s) ≤ ω(t) + ω(s) for all t, s ∈ [0, +∞). According to the infinite dimensional analog of the Osgood theorem if ∫¹₀ (ω(t))^?1 dt = ∞, then for any (t₀, x₀) ∈ ?×X and any continuous map f : ?×X → X such that ∥f(t, x) – f(t, y)∥ ≤ ω(∥x – y∥) for all t ∈ ?, x, y ∈ X, the Cauchy problem (t) = f(t, x(t)), x(t₀) = x₀ has a unique solution in a neighborhood of t₀. We prove that if X has a complemented subspace with an unconditional Schauder basis and ∫¹₀ (ω(t))^?1 dt < ∞ then there exists a continuous map f : ? × X → X such that ∥f(t, x) – f(t, y)∥ ≤ ω(∥x – y∥) for all (t, x, y) ∈ ? × X × X and the Cauchy problem (t) = f(t, x(t)), x(t₀) = x₀ has no solutions in any interval of the real line.     

On a fixed-point theorem on locally convex linear topological spaces

Iff is a self mapping on a closed convex subsetK of a separated quasicomplete locally convex linear topological spaceE such that (i)E is strictly convex, (ii)f (K) is contained in a compact subset ofK and (iii)f satisfies a contraction condition, then it is shown that for eachxK, the sequence of {U ⁿ (x)} _n =1 of iterates, whereU KK is defined byU (y)=f(y)+(1-) y, yK, converges to a fixed point off.

A Schauder-type fixed point theorem

In this brief note we study Schauder's second fixed point theorem in the space $(\mathit{BC},6\cdot 6)$ of bounded continuous functions $\varphi :[0,\infty )\to {\Re }^n$ with a view to reducing the requirement that there is a compact map to the requirement that the map is locally equicontinuous. Several examples are given, both motivating and applying the theory.     

Algebraic splines in locally convex spaces

In a vector space of continuous functions, a variational solution of a finite system of linear functional equations is found. The locally convex topology on the vector space and the properties of the objective functional required for obtaining the solution in the form of a decomposition in the basis dual to the family of functionals of the system are determined. The basis elements are calculated exactly and called basis algebraic splines; their linear span is called the space of algebraic splines in the corresponding locally convex space.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, vol. 77, no. 3, 2005, pp. 339–353.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by A.

A uniform boundedness theorem for locally convex cones

We prove a uniform boundedness theorem for families of linear operators on ordered cones. Using the concept of locally convex cones we introduce the notions of barreled cones and of weak cone-completeness. Our main result, though no straightforward generalization of the classical case, implies the Uniform Boundedness Theorem for Fréchet spaces.

     

Phelps' lemma, Danes' drop theorem and Ekeland's principle in locally convex spaces

A generalization of Phelps' lemma to locally convex spaces is proven, applying its well-known Banach space version. We show the equivalence of this theorem, Ekeland's principle and Danes' drop theorem in locally convex spaces to their Banach space counterparts and to a Pareto efficiency theorem due to Isac. This solves a problem, concerning the drop theorem, proposed by G. Isac in 1997.

We show that a different formulation of Ekeland's principle in locally convex spaces, using a family of topology generating seminorms as perturbation functions rather than a single (in general discontinuous) Minkowski functional, turns out to be equivalent to the original version.

     

Tychonoff's theorem for locally compact spaces and an elementary approach to the topology of path spaces

The path spaces of a directed graph play an important role in the study of graph -algebras. These are topological spaces that were originally constructed using groupoid and inverse semigroup techniques. In this paper, we develop a simple, purely topological, approach to this construction, based on Tychonoff's theorem. In fact, the approach is shown to work even for higher dimensional graphs satisfying the finitely aligned condition, and we construct the groupoid of the graph. Motivated by these path space results, we prove a Tychonoff theorem for an infinite, countable product of locally compact spaces. The main idea is to include certain finite products of the spaces along with the infinite product. We show that the topology is, in a reasonable sense, a pointwise topology.

     

The extension of the Krein-Šmulian theorem for Orlicz sequence spaces and convex sets

If X is a Banach space and C⊂X∗∗ a convex subset, for x∗∗∈X∗∗ and A⊂X∗∗ let be the distance from x∗∗ to C and . In this paper we prove that if φ is an Orlicz function, I an infinite set and X=?φ(I) the corresponding Orlicz space, equipped with either the Luxemburg or the Orlicz norm, then for every w^∗-compact subset K⊂X∗∗ we have if and only if φ satisfies the Δ₂-condition at 0. We also prove that for every Banach space X, every nonempty convex subset C⊂X and every w^∗-compact subset K⊂X∗∗ then and, if K∩C is w^∗-dense in K, then .     

On Weak Solutions of Stochastic Differential Equations

A new proof of existence of weak solutions to stochastic differential equations with continuous coefficients based on ideas from infinite-dimensional stochastic analysis is presented. The proof is fairly elementary, in particular, neither theorems on representation of martingales by stochastic integrals nor results on almost sure representation for tight sequences of random variables are needed.     

On Weak Solutions of Stochastic Differential Equations II

In the first part of this article a new method of proving existence of weak solutions to stochastic differential equations with continuous coefficients having at most linear growth was developed. In this second part, we show that the same method may be used even if the linear growth hypothesis is replaced with a suitable Lyapunov condition.     

On the hypercompleteness of locally convex spaces

We give an example of a hypercomplete space that does not satisfy the Krein-Shmul'yan condition.Translated from Matematicheskii Zametki, Vol. 13, No. 2, pp. 297–302, February, 1973.I wish to express my gratitude to O. G. Smolyanov for posing the problem.     

New extension of the Banach contraction principle to locally convex spaces and applications

In the paper, an important tool from fixed point theory, the Banach contraction principle, is extended to the more general setting where the spaces are Hausdorff locally convex and sequentially complete with calibrations Γ and the maps are not necessarily Γ-continuous. Applications are given for Γ-strictly pseudo-contractive maps.
