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…
Sharp capacity estimates for annuli in weighted $$\mathbf {R}^n$$ R n and in metric spaces
2016
We obtain estimates for the nonlinear variational capacity of annuli in weighted $$\mathbf {R}^n$$ and in metric spaces. We introduce four different (pointwise) exponent sets, show that they all play fundamental roles for capacity estimates, and also demonstrate that whether an end point of an exponent set is attained or not is important. As a consequence of our estimates we obtain, for instance, criteria for points to have zero (resp. positive) capacity. Our discussion holds in rather general metric spaces, including Carnot groups and many manifolds, but it is just as relevant on weighted $$\mathbf {R}^n$$ . Indeed, to illustrate the sharpness of our estimates, we give several examples of …
Pointwise k-Pseudo Metric Space
2021
In this paper, the concept of a k-(quasi) pseudo metric is generalized to the L-fuzzy case, called a pointwise k-(quasi) pseudo metric, which is considered to be a map d:J(LX)×J(LX)⟶[0,∞) satisfying some conditions. What is more, it is proved that the category of pointwise k-pseudo metric spaces is isomorphic to the category of symmetric pointwise k-remote neighborhood ball spaces. Besides, some L-topological structures induced by a pointwise k-quasi-pseudo metric are obtained, including an L-quasi neighborhood system, an L-topology, an L-closure operator, an L-interior operator, and a pointwise quasi-uniformity.
σ-Continuous and Co-σ-continuous Maps
2009
In this chapter we isolate the topological setting that is suitable for our study. We first present 2.1–2.3 to follow an understandable logical scheme nevertheless the main contribution are presented in 2.4–2.7 and our main tool will be Theorem 2.32. An important concept will be the σ-continuity of a map Φ from a topological space (X, T) into a metric space (Y, g). The σ-continuity property is an extension of continuity suitable to deal with countable decompositions of the domain space X as well as with pointwise cluster points of sequences of functions Φn : X → Y, n = 1,2,… When (X,T) is a subset of a locally convex linear topological space we shall refine our study to deal with σ-slicely …
Singular quasisymmetric mappings in dimensions two and greater
2018
For all $n \geq 2$, we construct a metric space $(X,d)$ and a quasisymmetric mapping $f\colon [0,1]^n \rightarrow X$ with the property that $f^{-1}$ is not absolutely continuous with respect to the Hausdorff $n$-measure on $X$. That is, there exists a Borel set $E \subset [0,1]^n$ with Lebesgue measure $|E|>0$ such that $f(E)$ has Hausdorff $n$-measure zero. The construction may be carried out so that $X$ has finite Hausdorff $n$-measure and $|E|$ is arbitrarily close to 1, or so that $|E| = 1$. This gives a negative answer to a question of Heinonen and Semmes.
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.
phi-Best proximity point theorems and applications to variational inequality problems
2017
The main concern of this study is to introduce the notion of $$\varphi $$ -best proximity points and establish the existence and uniqueness of $$\varphi $$ -best proximity point for non-self mappings satisfying $$(F,\varphi )$$ -proximal and $$(F,\varphi )$$ -weak proximal contraction conditions in the context of complete metric spaces. Some examples are supplied to support the usability of our results. As applications of the obtained results, some new best proximity point results in partial metric spaces are presented. Furthermore, sufficient conditions to ensure the existence of a unique solution for a variational inequality problem are also discussed.
Hardy inequalities and Assouad dimensions
2017
We establish both sufficient and necessary conditions for weighted Hardy inequalities in metric spaces in terms of Assouad (co)dimensions. Our sufficient conditions in the case where the complement is thin are new even in Euclidean spaces, while in the case of a thick complement we give new formulations for previously known sufficient conditions which reveal a natural duality between these two cases. Our necessary conditions are rather straight-forward generalizations from the unweighted case, but together with some examples they indicate the essential sharpness of our results. In addition, we consider the mixed case where the complement may contain both thick and thin parts.
