Ishikawa iterative process with errors for nonlinear equations of generalized monotone type in Banach spaces

The concept of the operators of generalized monotone type is introduced and iterative approximation methods for a fixed point of such operators by the Ishikawa and Mann iteration schemes {xn} and {yn} with errors is studied. Let X be a real Banach space and T : D ? X → 2^D be a multi‐valued operator of generalized monotone type with fixed points. A new general lemma on the convergence of real sequences is proved and used to show that {xn} converges strongly to a unique fixed point of T in D. This result is applied to the iterative approximation method for solutions of nonlinear equations with generalized strongly accretive operators. Our results generalize many of know results.

Regular Maximal Monotone Operators

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a class of maximal monotone operators on Banach spaces that contains all maximal monotone operators on reflexive spaces, all subdifferential operators of proper, lsc, convex functions, and, more generally, all maximal monotone operators that verify the simplest possible sum theorem. Dually strongly maximal monotone operators are also contained in this class. We shall prove that if T is an operator in this class, then (the norm closure of its domain) is convex, the interior of co(dom(T)) (the convex hull of the domain of T) is exactly the set of all points of at which T is locally bounded, and T is maximal monotone locally, as well as other results.

Examples of discontinuous maximal monotone linear operators and the solution to a recent problem posed by B.F. Svaiter

In this paper, we give two explicit examples of unbounded linear maximal monotone operators. The first unbounded linear maximal monotone operator S on ?² is skew. We show its domain is a proper subset of the domain of its adjoint S^∗, and −S^∗ is not maximal monotone. This gives a negative answer to a recent question posed by Svaiter. The second unbounded linear maximal monotone operator is the inverse Volterra operator T on L²[0,1]. We compare the domain of T with the domain of its adjoint T^∗ and show that the skew part of T admits two distinct linear maximal monotone skew extensions. These unbounded linear maximal monotone operators show that the constraint qualification for the maximality of the sum of maximal monotone operators cannot be significantly weakened, and they are simpler than the example given by Phelps-Simons. Interesting consequences on Fitzpatrick functions for sums of two maximal monotone operators are also given.

Monotone numerical schemes for a Dirichlet problem for elliptic operators in divergence form

We consider a second‐order differential operator A( x )=?∑?_ia_ij( x )?_j+ ∑?_j(b_j( x )·)+c( x ) on ?^d, on a bounded domain D with Dirichlet boundary conditions on ?D, under mild assumptions on the coefficients of the diffusion tensor a_ij. The object is to construct monotone numerical schemes to approximate the solution of the problem A( x )u( x )=µ( x ), x ∈D, where µ is a positive Radon measure. We start by briefly mentioning questions of existence and uniqueness introducing function spaces needed to prove convergence results. Then, we define non‐standard stencils on grid‐knots that lead to extended discretization schemes by matrices possessing compartmental structure. We proceed to discretization of elliptic operators, starting with constant diffusion tensor and ending with operators in divergence form. Finally, we discuss W‐convergence in detail, and mention convergence in C and L₁ spaces. We conclude by a numerical example illustrating the schemes and convergence results.

Operator kernel estimates for functions of generalized Schrödinger operators

We study the decay at large distances of operator kernels of functions of generalized Schrödinger operators, a class of semibounded second order partial differential operators of mathematical physics, which includes the Schrödinger operator, the magnetic Schrödinger operator, and the classical wave operators (i.e., acoustic operator, Maxwell operator, and other second order partial differential operators associated with classical wave equations). We derive an improved Combes-Thomas estimate, obtaining an explicit lower bound on the rate of exponential decay of the operator kernel of the resolvent. We prove that for slowly decreasing smooth functions the operator kernels decay faster than any polynomial.

     

Remarks on p-cyclically monotone operators

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we deal with three aspects of p-cyclically monotone operators. First, we introduce a notion of monotone polar adapted for p-cyclically monotone operators and study these kinds of operators with a unique maximal extension (called pre-maximal), and with a convex graph. We then deal with linear operators and provide characterizations of p-cyclical monotonicity and maximal p-cyclical monotonicity. Finally, we show that the Brézis-Browder theorem preserves p-cyclical monotonicity in reflexive Banach spaces.     

Complex powers of degenerate differential operators connected with the Klein-Gordon-Fock operator

We develop a theory of complex powers of the generalized Klein-Gordon-Fock operator

$m^2 - \square - i\lambda \frac{{\partial ^2 }}{{\partial x_1^2 }},\lambda > 0.$

. The negative powers of this operator are realized as potential-type integrals with nonstandard metrics, while positive powers inverse to negative ones are realized as approximative inverse operators.

     

On the convergence of maximal monotone operators

We study the convergence of maximal monotone operators with the help of representations by convex functions. In particular, we prove the convergence of a sequence of sums of maximal monotone operators under a general qualification condition of the Attouch-Brezis type.

     

A Geometrical Look at Iterative Methods for Operators with Fixed Points

ABSTRACT

We distinguish classes of operators T with fixed points on a real Hilbert space by comparing the distances of a point x and its image Tx to the (set of) fixed points of T; this leads to a ranking of those classes, based on a nonnegative parameter. That same parameter also lets us conclude about the sign of and an upper bound for a characteristic inner product result that arises in iterative processes to obtain a common fixed point of a set of operators. We use that parameter as the starting point for a geometrically-inclined study of specific iterative algorithms intended to find a common fixed point of operators belonging to such class.     

Ergodic properties of operators in some semi-Hilbertian spaces

This article deals with linear operators T on a complex Hilbert space ?, which are bounded with respect to the seminorm induced by a positive operator A on ?. The A-adjoint and A ^1/2-adjoint of T are considered to obtain some ergodic conditions for T with respect to A. These operators are also employed to investigate the class of orthogonally mean ergodic operators as well as that of A-power bounded operators. Some classes of orthogonally mean ergodic or A-ergodic operators, which come from the theory of generalized Toeplitz operators are considered. In particular, we give an example of an A-ergodic operator (with an injective A) which is not Cesàro ergodic, such that T ^?* is not a quasiaffine transform of an orthogonally mean ergodic operator.

A Generalization of Hankel Operators

We introduce a class of operators, called λ-Hankel operators, as those that satisfy the operator equation S*X−XS=λX, where S is the unilateral forward shift and λ is a complex number. We investigate some of the properties of λ-Hankel operators and show that much of their behaviour is similar to that of the classical Hankel operators (0-Hankel operators). In particular, we show that positivity of λ-Hankel operators is equivalent to a generalized Hamburger moment problem. We show that certain linear spaces of noninvertible operators have the property that every compact subset of the complex plane containing zero is the spectrum of an operator in the space. This theorem generalizes a known result for Hankel operators and applies to λ-Hankel operators for certain λ. We also study some other operator equations involving S.

A Trotter-Kato type result for a second order difference inclusion in a Hilbert space

A Trotter-Kato type result is proved for a class of second order difference inclusions in a real Hilbert space. The equation contains a nonhomogeneous term f and is governed by a nonlinear operator A, which is supposed to be maximal monotone and strongly monotone. The associated boundary conditions are also of monotone type. One shows that, if An is a sequence of operators which converges to A in the sense of resolvent and fn converges to f in a weighted l²-space, then under additional hypotheses, the sequence of the solutions of the difference inclusion associated to An and fn is uniformly convergent to the solution of the original problem.

〈2, 1〉-Compact operators

We consider the class of the continuous L _2,1 linear operators in L ₂ that are sums of the operators of multiplication by bounded measurable functions and the operators sending the unit ball of L ₂ into a compact subset of L ₁. We prove that a functional equation with an operator from L _2,1 is equivalent to an integral equation with kernel satisfying the Carleman condition. We also prove that if T ∈ L _2,1 and VTV ^?1 ∈ L _2,1 for all unitary operators V in L ₂ then T = α1 + C, where α is a scalar, 1 is the identity operator in L ₂, and C is a compact operator in L ₂.
