Two-Variable First-Order Logic with Equivalence Closure
2012
We consider the satisfiability and finite satisfiability problems for extensions of the two-variable fragment of first-order logic in which an equivalence closure operator can be applied to a fixed number of binary predicates. We show that the satisfiability problem for two-variable, first-order logic with equivalence closure applied to two binary predicates is in 2-NExpTime, and we obtain a matching lower bound by showing that the satisfiability problem for two-variable first-order logic in the presence of two equivalence relations is 2-NExpTime-hard. The logics in question lack the finite model property; however, we show that the same complexity bounds hold for the corresponding finite sa…
A comparison of compatible, finite, and inductive graph properties
1993
Abstract In the theory of hyperedge-replacement grammars and languages, one encounters three types of graph properties that play an important role in proving decidability and structural results. The three types are called compatible, finite, and inductive graph properties. All three of them cover graph properties that are well-behaved with respect to certain operations on hypergraphs. In this paper, we show that the three notions are essentially equivalent. Consequently, three lines of investigation in the theory of hyperedge replacement - so far separated - merge into one.
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.
Further generalization of fixed point theorems in Menger PM-spaces
2015
In this work, we establish some fixed point theorems by revisiting the notion of ψ-contractive mapping in Menger PM-spaces. One of our results (namely, Theorem 2.3) may be viewed as a possible answer to the problem of existence of a fixed point for generalized type contractive mappings in M-complete Menger PM-spaces under arbitrary t-norm. Some examples are furnished to demonstrate the validity of the obtained results.
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.
Fixed point theory in partial metric spaces via φ-fixed point’s concept in metric spaces
2014
Abstract Let X be a non-empty set. We say that an element x ∈ X is a φ-fixed point of T, where φ : X → [ 0 , ∞ ) and T : X → X , if x is a fixed point of T and φ ( x ) = 0 . In this paper, we establish some existence results of φ-fixed points for various classes of operators in the case, where X is endowed with a metric d. The obtained results are used to deduce some fixed point theorems in the case where X is endowed with a partial metric p. MSC:54H25, 47H10.
A Suzuki type fixed point theorem for a generalized multivalued mapping on partial Hausdorff metric spaces
2013
Abstract In this paper, we obtain a Suzuki type fixed point theorem for a generalized multivalued mapping on a partial Hausdorff metric space. As a consequence of the presented results, we discuss the existence and uniqueness of the bounded solution of a functional equation arising in dynamic programming.
Polynomial growth and identities of superalgebras and star-algebras
2009
Abstract We study associative algebras with 1 endowed with an automorphism or antiautomorphism φ of order 2, i.e., superalgebras and algebras with involution. For any fixed k ≥ 1 , we construct associative φ -algebras whose φ -codimension sequence is given asymptotically by a polynomial of degree k whose leading coefficient is the largest or smallest possible.
Unified Metrical Common Fixed Point Theorems in 2-Metric Spaces via an Implicit Relation
2013
We prove some common fixed point theorems for two pairs of weakly compatible mappings in 2-metric spaces via an implicit relation. As an application to our main result, we derive Bryant's type generalized fixed point theorem for four finite families of self-mappings which can be utilized to derive common fixed point theorems involving any finite number of mappings. Our results improve and extend a host of previously known results. Moreover, we study the existence of solutions of a nonlinear integral equation.

In the context of G -metric spaces we prove a common fixed point theorem for a sequence of self mappings using a new concept of α-series. Keywords: α-series, common fixed point, G -metric space Quaestiones Mathematicae 37(2014), 429-434
