Best approximation and variational inequality problems involving a simulation function
2016
We prove the existence of a g-best proximity point for a pair of mappings, by using suitable hypotheses on a metric space. Moreover, we establish some convergence results for a variational inequality problem, by using the variational characterization of metric projections in a real Hilbert space. Our results are applicable to classical problems of optimization theory.
Fixed point theorems on ordered metric spaces and applications to nonlinear elastic beam equations
2012
In this paper, we establish certain fixed point theorems in metric spaces with a partial ordering. Presented theorems extend and generalize several existing results in the literature. As application, we use the fixed point theorems obtained in this paper to study existence and uniqueness of solutions for fourth-order two-point boundary value problems for elastic beam equations.
Some new fixed point results in non-Archimedean fuzzy metric spaces
2013
In this paper, we introduce the notions of fuzzy $(\alpha,\beta,\varphi)$-contractive mapping, fuzzy $\alpha$-$\phi$-$\psi$-contractive mapping and fuzzy $\alpha$-$\beta$-contractive mapping and establish some results of fixed point for this class of mappings in the setting of non-Archimedean fuzzy metric spaces. The results presented in this paper generalize and extend some recent results in fuzzy metric spaces. Also, some examples are given to support the usability of our results.
Fixed points in weak non-Archimedean fuzzy metric spaces
2011
Mihet [Fuzzy $\psi$-contractive mappings in non-Archimedean fuzzy metric spaces, Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 159 (2008) 739-744] proved a theorem which assures the existence of a fixed point for fuzzy $\psi$-contractive mappings in the framework of complete non-Archimedean fuzzy metric spaces. Motivated by this, we introduce a notion of weak non-Archimedean fuzzy metric space and prove that the weak non-Archimedean fuzzy metric induces a Hausdorff topology. We utilize this new notion to obtain some common fixed point results for a pair of generalized contractive type mappings.
Some common fixed point theorems for owc mappings with applications
2013
Starting from the setting of fuzzy metric spaces, we give some new common fixed point theorems for a pair of occasionally weakly compatible (owc) self-mappings satisfying a mixed contractive condition. In proving our results, we do not need to use the triangular inequality. Also we obtain analogous results for two pairs of owc self-mappings by assuming symmetry only on the set of points of coincidence. These results unify, extend and complement some results existing in the literature. Finally, we give some applications of our results.
Nonlinear quasi-contractions of Ciric type
2012
In this paper we obtain points of coincidence and common fixed points for two self mappings satisfying a nonlinear contractive condition of Ciric type. As application, using the scalarization method of Du, we deduce a result of common fixed point in cone metric spaces.
Optimal rates of convergence for persistence diagrams in Topological Data Analysis
2013
Computational topology has recently known an important development toward data analysis, giving birth to the field of topological data analysis. Topological persistence, or persistent homology, appears as a fundamental tool in this field. In this paper, we study topological persistence in general metric spaces, with a statistical approach. We show that the use of persistent homology can be naturally considered in general statistical frameworks and persistence diagrams can be used as statistics with interesting convergence properties. Some numerical experiments are performed in various contexts to illustrate our results.
$varphi$-pairs and common fixed points in cone metric spaces
2008
In this paper we introduce a contractive condition, called $\varphi \textrm{-}pair$, for two mappings in the framework of cone metric spaces and we prove a theorem which assures existence and uniqueness of common fixed points for $\varphi \textrm{-}pairs$. Also we obtain a result on points of coincidence. These results extend and generalize well-known comparable results in the literature.
Common fixed points in cone metric spaces for CJM-pairs
2011
Abstract In this paper we introduce some contractive conditions of Meir–Keeler type for two mappings, called f - M K -pair mappings and f - C J M -pair (from Ciric, Jachymski, and Matkowski) mappings, in the framework of regular cone metric spaces and we prove theorems which guarantee the existence and uniqueness of common fixed points. We give also a fixed point result for a multivalued mapping that satisfies a contractive condition of Meir–Keeler type. These results extend and generalize some recent results from the literature. To conclude the paper, we extend our main result to non-regular cone metric spaces by using the scalarization method of Du.
Invariant approximation results in cone metric spaces
2011
Some sufficient conditions for the existence of fixed point of mappings satisfying generalized weak contractive conditions is obtained. A fixed point theorem for nonexpansive mappings is also obtained. As an application, some invariant approximation results are derived in cone metric spaces.
