New type of fixed point result of F-contraction with applications

The purpose of this paper is to prove theorem which generalize the corresponding results of Rhoades [B. E. Rhoades, Two New Fixed Point Theorems, Gen. Math. Notes, 2015, 27(2), 123--132]. This paper is to introduce the notion of dynamic process for generalized $F-$contraction mappings and to obtain coincidence and common fixed point results for such process. It is worth mentioning that our results do not rely on the commonly used range inclusion condition. We provide some examples to support our results. As an application of our results, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of solutions of dynamic programming and integral equations. Our results provide extension as well as substantial generalizations and improvements of several well known results in the existing comparable literature.     

Properties of serial kanban systems

In this paper we show some structural results of a kanban system by using results about the underlying GSMP. The main results from this connection are: dominance of allocations, optimal partition, upper and lower bounds on throughput, consistency of the IPA derivative, convexity of throughput as a function of service time parameters and concavity of throughput with respect to number of kanbans. Although the dominance and the partition results were obtained previously by sample path arguments, the proofs here are less cumbersome and generalize the earlier results. The second-order properties for kanban lines are new. These results form a basis for results in multi-product lines where proofs by sample paths require extensive notation.     

Coupled common fixed point theorems for w-compatible mappings in ordered cone metric spaces

We establish coupled coincidence point results for mixed g-monotone mappings under general contractive conditions in partially ordered cone metric spaces over solid cones. We also present results on existence and uniqueness of coupled common fixed points. Our results generalize, extend and unify several well known comparable results in the literature. To illustrate our results and to distinguish them from the earlier ones, we equip the paper with examples.

Positivity and stability of the essential spectrum for singular transport semigroups with non-vacuum boundary conditions

In this paper we prove some compactness results for a large class of singular transport equations. Our approach relies on some comparison results for positive operators. Our results extend and complete several earlier works. We also provide simpler proofs for several known results in the literature.     

System of vector quasi-variational inclusions with some applications

In this paper, we consider systems of vector quasi-variational inclusions which include systems of vector quasi-equilibrium problems for multivalued maps, systems of vector optimization problems and several other systems as special cases. We establish existence results for solutions of these systems. As applications of our results, we derive the existence results for solutions of system vector optimization problems, mathematical programs with systems of vector variational inclusion constraints and bilevel problems. Another application of our results provides the common fixed point theorem for a family of lower semicontinuous multivalued maps. Further applications of our results for existence of solutions of systems of vector quasi-variational inclusions are given to prove the existence of solutions of systems of Minty type and Stampacchia type generalized implicit quasi-variational inequalities. The results of this paper can be seen as extensions and generalizations of several known results in the literature.     

Existence and comparison results for fixed points of multifunctions with applications to normal-form games

In this paper we apply generalized iteration methods to prove comparison results which show how fixed points of a multifunction can be bounded by least and greatest fixed points of single-valued functions. As an application we prove existence and comparison results for fixed points of multifunctions. These results are applied to normal-form games, by proving existence and comparison results for pure and mixed Nash equilibria and their utilities.     

Oscillations of nonlinear hyperbolic equations with functional arguments via Riccati method

This paper is devoted to the study of the oscillatory behavior of solutions of nonlinear hyperbolic equations with functional arguments by using integral averaging method and a generalized Riccati technique. First, we establish oscillation results for nonlinear hyperbolic equations by applying oscillation criteria for Riccati inequality. Secondly, we present interval oscillation results for nonlinear hyperbolic equations. These results improve and extend oscillation results of Cui and Xu [1].

Nontrivial solutions for resonant cooperative elliptic systems via computations of the critical groups

In this paper, we consider a class of resonant cooperative elliptic systems. Based on some new results concerning the computations of the critical groups and the Morse theory, we establish some new results about the existence and multiplicity of solutions under new classes of conditions. It turns out that our main results sharply improve some known results in the literature.     

Banach operator pairs,common fixed-points,invariant approximations,and ∗ -nonexpansive multimaps

Common fixed-point results are proved for I$I$-nonexpansive maps, Ciric type maps, and ∗-nonexpansive multimaps. Invariant approximation results are obtained for these types of maps as applications. Our results extend or generalize several known results including the recent results of Chen and Li [J. Chen, Z. Li, Common fixed-points for Banach operators pairs in best approximation, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 336 (2007) 1466–1475]. In particular, we show that the results of Chen and Li on Banach operator pairs are particular cases of the results of Al-Thagafi and Shahzad [M.A. Al-Thagafi, N. Shahzad, Noncommuting selfmaps and invariant approximations, Nonlinear Anal. 64 (2006) 2778–2786].     

Common fixed point of generalized weakly contractive maps in partial metric spaces

In this paper, using the context of complete partial metric spaces, some common fixed point results of maps that satisfy the generalized (φ,ψ)-weak contractive conditions are obtained. Our results generalize, extend, unify, enrich and complement many existing results in the literature. Example are given showing the validaty of our results.

The Law of Large Numbers and the Ito-Nisio Theorem for Vector Valued Random Fields

Strong convergence results are obtained for vector-valued random fields. Substantial development of Banach-valued random fields and summability results is needed to provide the framework for the major results since many plausible extensions fail for multi-indexed Banach-valued random variables. This development yields general convergence results for random fields in Banach spaces, including an Ito-Nisio theorem and strong laws of large numbers.     

Error bounds for monotone approximation schemes for parabolic Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations

We obtain nonsymmetric upper and lower bounds on the rate of convergence of general monotone approximation/numerical schemes for parabolic Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations by introducing a new notion of consistency. Our results are robust and general - they improve and extend earlier results by Krylov, Barles, and Jakobsen. We apply our general results to various schemes including Crank-Nicholson type finite difference schemes, splitting methods, and the classical approximation by piecewise constant controls. In the first two cases our results are new, and in the last two cases the results are obtained by a new method which we develop here.

     

Openness properties for parametric set-valued mappings and implicit multifunctions

The aim of this paper is to obtain some openness results in terms of normal coderivative for parametric set-valued mappings acting between infinite dimensional spaces. Then, implicit multifunction results are obtained by simply specializing the openness results. Moreover, we study a kind of metric regularity of the implicit multifunction. The results of the paper generalize several recent results in literature.     

Noncommuting selfmaps and invariant approximations

Common fixed-point results are established for a new class of noncommuting selfmaps. We apply them to obtain several invariant approximation results which unify, extend, and complement well-known results.
