Radon–Nikodym Property and Area Formula for Banach Homogeneous Group Targets
2013
We prove a Rademacher-type theorem for Lipschitz mappings from a subset of a Carnot group to a Banach homogeneous group, equipped with a suitably weakened Radon-Nikodym property. We provide a metric area formula that applies to these mappings and more generally to all almost everywhere metrically differentiable Lipschitz mappings defined on a Carnot group. peerReviewed
Closedness and lower semicontinuity of positive sesquilinear forms
2009
The relationship between the notion of closedness, lower semicontinuity and completeness (of a quotient) of the domain of a positive sesquilinear form defined on a subspace of a topological vector space is investigated and sufficient conditions for their equivalence are given.
Metric or partial metric spaces endowed with a finite number of graphs: a tool to obtain fixed point results
2014
Abstract We give some fixed point theorems in the setting of metric spaces or partial metric spaces endowed with a finite number of graphs. The presented results extend and improve several well-known results in the literature. In particular, we discuss a Caristi type fixed point theorem in the setting of partial metric spaces, which has a close relation to Ekelandʼs principle.
2-SYMMETRIC CRITICAL POINT THEOREMS FOR NON-DIFFERENTIABLE FUNCTIONS
2008
AbstractIn this paper, some min–max theorems for even andC1functionals established by Ghoussoub are extended to the case of functionals that are the sum of a locally Lipschitz continuous, even term and a convex, proper, lower semi-continuous, even function. A class of non-smooth functionals admitting an unbounded sequence of critical values is also pointed out.
Rademacher Theorem for Fréchet spaces
2010
Abstract Let X be a separable Frechet space. In this paper we define a class A of null sets in X that is properly contained in the class of Aronszajn null sets, and we prove that a Lipschitz map from an open subset of X into a Gelfand-Frechet space is Gateaux differentiable outside a set belonging to A. This is an extension to Frechet spaces of a result (see [PZ]) due to D. Preiss and L. Zajicek.
On the solutions to 1-Laplacian equation with L1 data
2009
AbstractIn the present paper we study the behaviour, as p goes to 1, of the renormalized solutions to the problems(0.1){−div(|∇up|p−2∇up)=finΩ,up=0on∂Ω, where p>1, Ω is a bounded open set of RN (N⩾2) with Lipschitz boundary and f belongs to L1(Ω). We prove that these renormalized solutions pointwise converge, up to “subsequences,” to a function u. With a suitable definition of solution we also prove that u is a solution to a “limit problem.” Moreover we analyze the situation occurring when more regular data f are considered.
Multi-valued $$F$$ F -contractions in 0-complete partial metric spaces with application to Volterra type integral equation
2013
We study the existence of fixed points for multi-valued mappings that satisfy certain generalized contractive conditions in the setting of 0-complete partial metric spaces. We apply our results to the solution of a Volterra type integral equation in ordered 0-complete partial metric spaces.
Lipschitz operator ideals and the approximation property
2016
[EN] We establish the basics of the theory of Lipschitz operator ideals with the aim of recovering several classes of Lipschitz maps related to absolute summability that have been introduced in the literature in the last years. As an application we extend the notion and main results on the approximation property for Banach spaces to the case of metric spaces. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
Remarks on G-Metric Spaces
2013
In 2005, Mustafa and Sims (2006) introduced and studied a new class of generalized metric spaces, which are called G-metric spaces, as a generalization of metric spaces. We establish some useful propositions to show that many fixed point theorems on (nonsymmetric) G-metric spaces given recently by many authors follow directly from well-known theorems on metric spaces. Our technique can be easily extended to other results as shown in application.
Multi-valued F-contractions and the solution of certain functional and integral equations
2013
Wardowski [Fixed Point Theory Appl., 2012:94] introduced a new concept of contraction and proved a fixed point theorem which generalizes Banach contraction principle. Following this direction of research, we will present some fixed point results for closed multi-valued F-contractions or multi-valued mappings which satisfy an F-contractive condition of Hardy-Rogers-type, in the setting of complete metric spaces or complete ordered metric spaces. An example and two applications, for the solution of certain functional and integral equations, are given to illustrate the usability of the obtained results.
