Henstock type integral in compact zero-dimensional metric space and quasi-measures representations
2012
Properties of a Henstock type integral defined on a compact zero-dimensional metric space are studied. Theorems on integral representation of so-called quasi-measures, i.e., linear functionals on the space of “polynomials” defined on the space of the above mentioned type, are obtained.
Approximation of fixed points of multifunctions in partial metric spaces
2013
Recently, Reich and Zaslavski [S. Reich and A.J. Zaslavski, Convergence of Inexact Iterative Schemes for Nonexpansive Set-Valued Mappings, Fixed Point Theory Appl. 2010 (2010), Article ID 518243, 10pages] have studied a new inexact iterative scheme for fixed points ofcontractive multifunctions. In this paper, using the partial Hausdorffmetric introduced by Aydi et al., we prove an analogous to a resultof Reich and Zaslavski for contractive multifunctions in the setting ofpartial metric spaces. An example is given to illustrate our result. 
On Ekeland's variational principle in partial metric spaces
2015
In this paper, lower semi-continuous functions are used to extend Ekeland's variational principle to the class of parti al metric spaces. As consequences of our results, we obtain some fixed p oint theorems of Caristi and Clarke types.
Covering by discrete and closed discrete sets.
2008
Say that a cardinal number $\kappa$ is \emph{small} relative to the space $X$ if $\kappa <\Delta(X)$, where $\Delta(X)$ is the least cardinality of a non-empty open set in $X$. We prove that no Baire metric space can be covered by a small number of discrete sets, and give some generalizations. We show a ZFC example of a regular Baire $\sigma$-space and a consistent example of a normal Baire Moore space which can be covered by a small number of discrete sets. We finish with some remarks on linearly ordered spaces.
Fixed points for weak alpha-psi-contractions in partial metric spaces
2013
Recently, Samet et al. (2012) introduced the notion of $\alpha $ - $\psi $ -contractive mappings and established some fixed point results in the setting of complete metric spaces. In this paper, we introduce the notion of weak $\alpha $ - $\psi $ -contractive mappings and give fixed point results for this class of mappings in the setting of partial metric spaces. Also, we deduce fixed point results in ordered partial metric spaces. Our results extend and generalize the results of Samet et al.
On complete metric spaces containing the Sierpinski curve
1998
It is proved that a complete metric space topologically contains the Sierpiński universal plane curve if and only if it has a subset with so-called bypass property, i.e. it has a subset K K containing an arc such that for each a ∈ K a\in K and for each open arc A ⊂ K A\subset K with a ∈ A a\in A , there exists an arbitrary small arc in K ∖ { a } K\setminus \{a\} joining the two components of A ∖ { a } A\setminus \{a\} .
COMMON FIXED POINTS FOR psi-CONTRACTIONS ON PARTIAL METRIC SPACES
2013
We prove some generalized versions of an interesting result of Matthews using conditions of different type in 0-complete partial metric spaces. We give, also, a homotopy result for operators on partial metric spaces.
VARIANTS OF A SELECTION PRINCIPLE FOR SEQUENCES OF REGULATED AND NON-REGULATED FUNCTIONS
2008
Let $T$ be a nonempty subset of $\RB$, $X$ a metric space with metric $d$ and $X^T$ the set of all functions mapping $T$ into $X$. Given $\vep>0$ and $f\in X^T$, we denote by $N(\vep,f,T)$ the least upper bound of those $n\in\NB$, for which there exist numbers $s_1,\dots,s_n,t_1,\dots,t_n$ from $T$ such that $s_1\vep$ for all $i=1,\dots,n$ ($N(\vep,f,T)=0$ if there are no such $n$'s). The following pointwise selection principle is proved: {\em If a sequence of functions\/ $\{f_j\}_{j=1}^\infty\subset X^T$ is such that the closure in $X$ of the sequence\/ $\{f_j(t)\}_{j=1}^\infty$ is compact for each $t\in T$ and\/ $\limsup_{j\to\infty}N(\vep,f_j,T)0$, then\/ $\{f_j\}_{j=1}^\infty$ contains …
Regularity properties for quasiminimizers of a $(p,q)$-Dirichlet integral
2021
Using a variational approach we study interior regularity for quasiminimizers of a $(p,q)$-Dirichlet integral, as well as regularity results up to the boundary, in the setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure and supporting a Poincar\'{e} inequality. For the interior regularity, we use De Giorgi type conditions to show that quasiminimizers are locally H\"{o}lder continuous and they satisfy Harnack inequality, the strong maximum principle, and Liouville's Theorem. Furthermore, we give a pointwise estimate near a boundary point, as well as a sufficient condition for H\"older continuity and a Wiener type regularity condition for continuity up to the boundary. Finally, we cons…
Graphical metric space: a generalized setting in fixed point theory
2016
Building on recent ideas of Jachymski, we work on the notion of graphical metric space and prove an analogous result for the contraction mapping principle. In particular, the triangular inequality is replaced by a weaker one, which is satisfied by only those points which are situated on some path included in the graphical structure associated with the space. Some consequences, examples and an application to integral equations are presented to confirm the significance and unifying power of obtained generalizations.
