On fixed points of the Burrows-Wheeler transform
2017
The Burrows-Wheeler Transform is a well known transformation widely used in Data Compression: important competitive compression software, such as Bzip (cf. [1]) and Szip (cf. [2]) and some indexing software, like the FM-index (cf. [3]), are deeply based on the Burrows Wheeler Transform. The main advantage of using BWT for data compression consists in its feature of "clustering" together equal characters. In this paper we show the existence of fixed points of BWT, i.e., words on which BWT has no effect. We show a characterization of the permutations associated to BWT of fixed points and we give the explicit form of fixed points on a binary ordered alphabet a, b having at most four b's and th…
Common Fixed Points in a Partially Ordered Partial Metric Space
2013
In the first part of this paper, we prove some generalized versions of the result of Matthews in (Matthews, 1994) using different types of conditions in partially ordered partial metric spaces for dominated self-mappings or in partial metric spaces for self-mappings. In the second part, using our results, we deduce a characterization of partial metric 0-completeness in terms of fixed point theory. This result extends the Subrahmanyam characterization of metric completeness.
Common fixed points in generalized metric spaces
2012
Abstract We establish some common fixed point theorems for mappings satisfying a ( ψ , φ ) -weakly contractive condition in generalized metric spaces. Presented theorems extend and generalize many existing results in the literature.
Common fixed points for discontinuous mappings in fuzzy metric spaces
2008
In this paper we prove some common fixed point theorems for fuzzy contraction respect to a mapping, which satisfies a condition of weak compatibility. We deduce also fixed point results for fuzzy contractive mappings in the sense of Gregori and Sapena.
Fixed point results for F-contractive mappings of Hardy-Rogers-type
2014
Recently, Wardowski introduced a new concept of contraction and proved a fixed point theorem which generalizes Banach contraction principle. Following this direction of research, in this paper, we will present some fixed point results of Hardy-Rogers-type for self-mappings on complete metric spaces or complete ordered metric spaces. Moreover, an example is given to illustrate the usability of the obtained results.
Characterizing extreme points of polyhedra an extension of a result by Wolfgang Bühler
1982
This paper reconsiders the characterization given by Buhler admitting convex polyhedra of probability distributions on a finite or countable set which are given by systems of linear inequalities more complex than those considered before.
Fixed point and homotopy results for mixed multi-valued mappings in 0-complete partial metric spaces*
2015
We give sufficient conditions for the existence of common fixed points for a pair of mixed multi-valued mappings in the setting of 0-complete partial metric spaces. An example is given to demonstrate the usefulness of our results over the existing results in metric spaces. Finally, we prove a homotopy theorem via fixed point results.
Common fixed points for self-mappings on partial metric spaces
2012
Abstract In this paper, we prove some results of a common fixed point for two self-mappings on partial metric spaces. Our results generalize some interesting results of Ilić et al. (Appl. Math. Lett. 24:1326-1330, 2011). We conclude with a result of the existence of a fixed point for set-valued mappings in the context of 0-complete partial metric spaces. MSC:54H25, 47H10.
Uniformly nonsquare Banach spaces have the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings
2006
Abstract It is shown that if the modulus Γ X of nearly uniform smoothness of a reflexive Banach space satisfies Γ X ′ ( 0 ) 1 , then every bounded closed convex subset of X has the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings. In particular, uniformly nonsquare Banach spaces have this property since they are properly included in this class of spaces. This answers a long-standing question in the theory.
Suzukiʼs type characterizations of completeness for partial metric spaces and fixed points for partially ordered metric spaces
2012
Abstract Recently, Suzuki [T. Suzuki, A generalized Banach contraction principle that characterizes metric completeness, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 136 (2008) 1861–1869] proved a fixed point theorem that is a generalization of the Banach contraction principle and characterizes the metric completeness. In this paper we prove an analogous fixed point result for a self-mapping on a partial metric space or on a partially ordered metric space. Our results on partially ordered metric spaces generalize and extend some recent results of Ran and Reurings [A.C.M. Ran, M.C. Reurings, A fixed point theorem in partially ordered sets and some applications to matrix equations, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 132 (2004…
