Some Common Coupled Fixed Point Results for Generalized Contraction in Complex-Valued Metric Spaces
2013
We introduce and study the notion of common coupled fixed points for a pair of mappings in complex valued metric space and demonstrate the existence and uniqueness of the common coupled fixed points in a complete complex-valued metric space in view of diverse contractive conditions. In addition, our investigations are well supported by nontrivial examples.
On Different Type Solutions of Boundary Value Problems
2016
We consider boundary value problems of the type x'' = f(t, x, x'), (∗) x(a) = A, x(b) = B. A solution ξ(t) of the above BVP is said to be of type i if a solution y(t) of the respective equation of variations y'' = fx(t, ξ(t), ξ' (t))y + fx' (t, ξ(t), ξ' (t))y' , y(a) = 0, y' (a) = 1, has exactly i zeros in the interval (a, b) and y(b) 6= 0. Suppose there exist two solutions x1(t) and x2(t) of the BVP. We study properties of the set S of all solutions x(t) of the equation (∗) such that x(a) = A, x'1(a) ≤ x' (a) ≤ x'2(a) provided that solutions extend to the interval [a, b].
Set-valued mappings in partially ordered fuzzy metric spaces
2014
Abstract In this paper, we provide coincidence point and fixed point theorems satisfying an implicit relation, which extends and generalizes the result of Gregori and Sapena, for set-valued mappings in complete partially ordered fuzzy metric spaces. Also we prove a fixed point theorem for set-valued mappings on complete partially ordered fuzzy metric spaces which generalizes results of Mihet and Tirado. MSC:54E40, 54E35, 54H25.
Wavelet-based efficient simulation of electromagnetic transients in a lightning protection system
2003
In this paper, a wavelet-based efficient simulation of electromagnetic transients in a lightning protection systems (LPS) is presented. The analysis of electromagnetic transients is carried out by employing the thin-wire electric field integral equation in frequency domain. In order to easily handle the boundary conditions of the integral equation, semiorthogonal compactly supported spline wavelets, constructed for the bounded interval [0,1], have been taken into account in expanding the unknown longitudinal currents. The integral equation is then solved by means of the Galerkin method. As a preprocessing stage, a discrete wavelet transform is used in order to efficiently compress the Fouri…
NIR and Visible Image Fusion for Improving Face Recognition at Long Distance
2014
Face recognition performance achieves high accuracy in close proximity. However, great challenges still exist in recognizing human face at long distance. In fact, the rapidly increasing need for long range surveillance requires a passage from close-up distances to long distances which affects strongly the human face image quality and causes degradation in recognition accuracy. To address this problem, we propose in this paper, a multispectral pixel level fusion approach to improve the performance of automatic face recognition at long distance. The main objective of the proposed approach is to formulate a method to enhance the face image quality as well as the face recognition rate. First, v…
BIEM-based variational principles for elastoplasticity with unilateral contact boundary conditions
1998
The structural step problem for elastic-plastic internal-variable materials is addressed in the presence of frictionless unilateral contact conditions. Basing on the BIEM (boundary integral equation method) and making use of deformation-theory plasticity (through the backward-difference method of computational plasticity), two variational principles are shown to characterize the solution to the step problem: one is a stationarity principle having as unknowns all the problem variables, the other is a saddle-point principle having as unknowns the increments of the boundary tractions and displacements, along with the plastic strain increments in the domain. The discretization by boundary and i…
Method of Lines and Finite Difference Schemes with Exact Spectrum for Solving Some Linear Problems of Mathematical Physics
2013
In this paper linear initial-boundary-value problems of mathematical physics with different type boundary conditions BCs and periodic boundary conditions PBCs are studied. The finite difference scheme FDS and the finite difference scheme with exact spectrum FDSES are used for the space discretization. The solution in the time is obtained analytically and numerically, using the method of lines and continuous and discrete Fourier methods.
The political attribution of values to Intangible Cultural Heritage: the consuetudinary courts
2021
En el año 2009 la UNESCO incluyó el Tribunal de las Aguas de Valencia y el de Hombres Buenos de Murcia en la Lista Representativa del Patrimonio Cultural Inmaterial de la Humanidad. Ambas instituciones de derecho consuetudinario fueron reconocidas a través de la más elevada categoría de protección inmaterial a nivel internacional. A lo largo de las últimas décadas se han emitido resoluciones consultivas (culturales, jurídicas) y desarrollado una agenda de investigación que suscitan el interés por el análisis de los valores atribuidos o atribuibles a ciertas manifestaciones culturales (materiales o inmateriales) cuya apelación serviría a los actores sociales y políticos para justificar su re…
Identification of fatty acid binding proteins as markers associated with the initiation and/or progression of renal cell carcinoma
2005
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) representing the most common neoplasia of the kidney in Western countries is a histologic diverse disease with an often unpredictable course. The prognosis of RCC is worsened with the onset of metastasis, and the therapies currently available are of limited success for the treatment of metastatic RCC. Although gene expression analyses and other methods are promising tools clarifying and standardizing the pathological classification of RCC, novel innovative molecular markers for the diagnosis, prognosis, and for the monitoring of this disease during therapy as well as potential therapeutic targets are urgently needed. Using proteome-based strategies, a number of RC…
Dios y el coito: entre la misoginia y el feminismo
1970
El objetivo de este trabajo es señalar que para la reflexión filosófica sobre los sexos hay dos cuestiones de vital importancia que están íntimamente relacionadas: el significado que atribuimos al coito y cómo entendemos la relación del ser humano con lo absoluto (o con Dios). Para ello, recurriremos a las filosofías de dos autores que representan opciones antagónicas en esta materia: Otto Weinigner, un autor indudablemente misógino, y Simone de Beauvoir, precursora del feminismo. Dado que sus discursos coinciden en muchos aspectos relevantes —pues ambos identifican los valores masculinos con los valores humanos, creen que las mujeres han sido víctimas de un engaño y defienden la desaparici…
