in this paper the bagley-torvik equation as a prototype fractional differential equation with two derivatives is investigated by means of homotopy perturbation method. the results reveal that the present method is very effective and accurate.

in this paper, we prove the existence of fixed point for chatterjea type mappings under $c$-distance in cone metric spaces endowed with a graph. the main results extend, generalized and unified some fixed point theorems on $c$-distance in metric and cone metric spaces.

in this paper, we give some results on the common fixed point of self-mappings defined on complete $b$-metric spaces. our results generalize kannan and chatterjea fixed point theorems on complete $b$-metric spaces. in particular, we show that two self-mappings satisfying a contraction type inequality have a unique common fixed point. we also give some examples to illustrate the given results.

1.1. Normed spaces. Recall that a (real) vector space V is called a normed space if there exists a function ‖ · ‖ : V → R such that (1) ‖f‖ ≥ 0 for all f ∈ V and ‖f‖ = 0 if and only if f = 0. (2) ‖af‖ = |a| ‖f‖ for all f ∈ V and all scalars a. (3) (Triangle inequality) ‖f + g‖ ≤ ‖f ||+ ‖g‖ for all f, g ∈ V . If V is a normed space, then d(f, g) = ‖f−g‖ defines a metric on V . Convergence w.r.t ...

Our previous work in computer-aided mammography has used scale orientation pixel signatures to provide a rich description of local structure. However, when treated as vectors for statistical classi cation, the Euclidean space they de ne has unsatisfactory metric properties. In this paper we describe a scheme that makes use of a previously described signature similarity measure to de ne a non-li...

The 3-metric gij and extrinsic curvature (second fundamental form) Kij are the fundamental variables describing the geometry in any space+time decomposition of the Einstein equations. (g,K) describe the local geometry of a single space-like hypersurface M , and it is then natural to describe the evolution of the space-time geometry by a 1-parameter family (g(t), K(t)), describing the local geom...

the time-optimal trajectory for an airplane from some starting point to some final point is studied by many authors. here, we consider the extension of robot planer motion of dubins model in three dimensional spaces. in this model, the system has independent bounded control over both the altitude velocity and the turning rate of airplane movement in a non-obstacle space. here, in this paper a g...

Network Coordination Systems (NCS) are powerful mechanisms to efficiently predict the network latency of pairwise hosts in Internet without directly network measurement between them. Each host is embedded into a distance space where the latency between nodes is calculated according to the distant function defined by the space with assigned coordination of hosts. In terms of the properties of di...

The original aim of this paper is to construct a graph associated to a vector space. By inspiration of the classical definition for the Cayley graph related to a group we define Cayley graph of a vector space. The vector space Cayley graph ${rm Cay(mathcal{V},S)}$ is a graph with the vertex set the whole vectors of the vector space $mathcal{V}$ and two vectors $v_1,v_2$ join by an edge whenever...
