Weak Univalence and Connectedness of Inverse Images of Continuous Functions

چکیده
A continuous function f with domain X and range f(X) in R n is weakly univalent if there is a sequence of continuous one-to-one functions on X converging to f uniformly on bounded subsets of X. In this article, we establish, under certain conditions, the connectedness of an inverse image f ?1 (q). The univalence results of Radulescu-Radulescu, Mor e-Rheinboldt, and Gale-Nikaido follow from our main result. We also show that the solution set of a nonlinear complementarity problem corresponding to a continuous P 0-function is connected if it contains a nonempty bounded clopen set; in particular, the problem will have a unique solution if it has a locally unique solution.

By using norm estimates of the pre-Schwarzian derivatives for certain family of analytic functions, we shall give simple sufficient conditions for univalence of analytic functions.
متن کاملSomewhat-connectedness and somewhat-continuity in the product space
In this paper, the concept of somewhat-connected space will be introduced and characterized. Its connection with the other well-known concepts such as the classical connectedness, the $omega_theta$-connectedness, and the $omega$-connectedness will be determined. Moreover, the concept of textit{somewhat}-continuous function from an arbitrary topological space into the product space will be chara...
متن کاملGlobal convergence of sequential injective algorithm for weakly univalent vector equation: application to regularized smoothing Newton algorithm
It is known that the complementarity problems and the variational inequality problems are reformulated equivalently as a vector equation by using the natural residual or Fischer-Burmeister function. In this short paper, we first study the global convergence of a sequential injective algorithm for weakly univalent vector equation. Then, we apply the convergence analysis to the regularized smooth...
متن کاملUniform connectedness and uniform local connectedness for lattice-valued uniform convergence spaces
We apply Preuss' concept of $mbbe$-connectedness to the categories of lattice-valued uniform convergence spaces and of lattice-valued uniform spaces. A space is uniformly $mbbe$-connected if the only uniformly continuous mappings from the space to a space in the class $mbbe$ are the constant mappings. We develop the basic theory for $mbbe$-connected sets, including the product theorem. Furtherm...
