An approximation method for strictly pseudocontractive mappings

Let K$K$ be a closed convex subset of a q$q$-uniformly smooth separable Banach space, T:K→K$T:K\to K$ a strictly pseudocontractive mapping, and f:K→K$f:K\to K$ an L$L$-Lispschitzian strongly pseudocontractive mapping. For any t∈(0,1)$t\in (0,1)$, let _xt$x_t$ be the unique fixed point of tf+(1-t)T$\mathit{tf}+(1-t)T$. We prove that if T$T$ has a fixed point, then {_xt}$\{x_t\}$ converges to a fixed point of T$T$ as t$t$ approaches to 0.     

The reduced expressions in a Coxeter system with a strictly complete Coxeter graph

Let (W,S)$(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system with a strictly complete Coxeter graph. The present paper concerns the set Red(z)$\mathrm{Red}(z)$ of all reduced expressions for any z∈W$z\in W$. By associating each bc-expression to a certain symbol, we describe the set Red(z)$\mathrm{Red}(z)$ and compute its cardinal |Red(z)|$|\mathrm{Red}(z)|$ in terms of symbols. An explicit formula for |Red(z)|$|\mathrm{Red}(z)|$ is deduced, where the Fibonacci numbers play a crucial role.     

The topological structure of fuzzy sets with sendograph metric

For a non-degenerate convex subset Y of the n  -dimensional Euclidean space Rⁿ${\mathbb{R}}^n$, let F(Y)$\mathbb{F}(Y)$ be the family of all fuzzy sets of Rⁿ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ which are upper semicontinuous, fuzzy convex and normal with compact supports contained in Y  . We show that the space F(Y)$\mathbb{F}(Y)$ with the topology of sendograph metric is homeomorphic to the separable Hilbert space ?²${?}^2$ if Y   is compact; and the space F(Rⁿ)$\mathbb{F}({\mathbb{R}}^n)$ is also homeomorphic to ?²${?}^2$.     

Description of extended eigenvalues and extended eigenvectors of integration operators on the Wiener algebra

In the present paper we consider the Volterra integration operator V   on the Wiener algebra W(D)$W(\mathbb{D})$ of analytic functions on the unit disc D$\mathbb{D}$ of the complex plane C$\mathbb{C}$. A complex number λ$\lambda$ is called an extended eigenvalue of V if there exists a nonzero operator A   satisfying the equation AV=λVA$\mathit{AV}=\lambda \mathit{VA}$. We prove that the set of all extended eigenvalues of V   is precisely the set C?{0}$\mathbb{C}?\{0\}$, and describe in terms of Duhamel operators and composition operators the set of corresponding extended eigenvectors of V$V$. The similar result for some weighted shift operator on _?p${?}_p$ spaces is also obtained.     

On rigidity of Roe algebras

Roe algebras are C^?$C^{?}$-algebras built using large scale (or ‘coarse’) aspects of a metric space (X,d)$(X,d)$. In the special case that X=Γ$X=\Gamma$ is a finitely generated group and d   is a word metric, the simplest Roe algebra associated to (Γ,d)$(\Gamma ,d)$ is isomorphic to the crossed product C^?$C^{?}$-algebra l^∞(Γ)_?rΓ$l^{\infty }(\Gamma ){?}_r\Gamma$.     

On the nonexistence of a relation between σ-left-porosity and σ-right-porosity

Given an arbitrarily weak notion of left-〈f〉$〈f〉$-porosity and an arbitrarily strong notion of right-〈g〉$〈g〉$-porosity, we construct an example of closed subset of R$\mathbb{R}$ which is not σ  -left-〈f〉$〈f〉$-porous and is right-〈g〉$〈g〉$-porous. We also briefly summarize the relations between three different definitions of porosity controlled by a function; we then observe that our construction gives the example for any combination of these definitions of left-porosity and right-porosity.     

A new approach to fixed point theorems on G-metric spaces

In this paper, we introduce the metric d^G$d^G$ on a G  -metric space (X,G)$(X,G)$ and use this notion to show that many contraction conditions for maps on the G  -metric space (X,G)$(X,G)$ reduce to certain contraction conditions for maps on the metric space (X,d^G)$(X,d^G)$. As applications, the proofs of many fixed point theorems for maps on the G  -metric space (X,G)$(X,G)$ may be simplified, and many fixed point theorems for maps on the G  -metric space (X,G)$(X,G)$ are direct consequences of preceding results for maps on the metric space (X,d^G)$(X,d^G)$.
