In this paper, the concept of generalized Jaggi-Berinde contraction multivalued maps in partially ordered metric spaces is introduced. A fixed point theorem for such maps is established. An example is given to support our main result. We investigate the stability of fixed points for a sequence of generalized Jaggi-Berinde contraction multivalued maps in partially ordered metric spaces. Our resu...

The Equichordal Point Problem can be formulated in simple geometric terms. If C is a Jordan curve on the plane and P; Q 2 C then the segment PQ is called a chord of the curve C. A point inside the curve is called equichordal if every two chords through this point have the same length. The question was whether there exists a curve with two distinct equichordal points O 1 and O 2. The problem was...

For a large number of those working in topology, functional analysis, multivalued analysis, approximation theory, convex geometry, mathematical economics, control theory, and several other areas, the year 1956 has always been strongly connected with the publication by Ernest Michael of two fundamental papers on continuous selections which appeared in the Annals of Mathematics [4] [5]. With suff...

A common view of feedforward neural networks is that of a black box since the knowledge embedded in the connection weights of a feedforward neural network is generally considered incomprehensible. Many researchers have addressed this deficiency of neural networks by suggesting schemes to obtain a Boolean logic representation for the output of a neuron based on its connection weights. However, t...

Following the development of fuzzy logic theory by Lotfi Zadeh, its applications were investigated by researchers in different fields. Presenting and working with uncertain data is a complex problem. To solve for such a complex problem, the structure of relationships and operators dependent on such relationships must be repaired. The fuzzy database has integrity limitations including data depen...

Based on an extension of Fenchel inequality, bipotentials are non smooth mechanics tools, used to model various non associative multivalued constitutive laws of dissipative materials (friction contact, soils, cyclic plasticity of metals, damage). Let X , Y be dual locally convex spaces, with duality product 〈·, ·〉 : X×Y → R. Given the graph M ⊂ X × Y of a multivalued law T : X → 2 , we state a ...

This work introduces collected size semantics of strict functional programs over lists. The collected size semantics of a function definition is a multivalued size function that collects the dependencies between every possible output size and the corresponding input sizes. Such functions annotate standard types and are defined by conditional rewriting rules generated during type inference. We f...

We provide methods of computing multivalued solutions to the Euler-Poisson system and test them in the context of a klystron amplifier. An Eulerian formulation capable of computing multivalued solutions is derived from a kinetic description of the Euler-Poisson system and a moment closure. The system of the moment equations may be closed due to the special structure of the solution in phase spa...

Multivalued fuzzy behavior control systems for robot navigation have demonstrated more system robustness against sensor and environmental uncertainty and changes in behavioral priorities than univalued fuzzy behavior control systems. However, a major concern for the implementation of multivalued systems is the computational burden associated with the fuzzy inference and deffuzification process....

In this paper, we introduce a new class of variational inequalities involving two operators. Using the projection technique, we establish the equivalence between the multivalued general variational inequalities and the fixed point problems. This equivalent formulation is used to suggest and analyze some iterative algorithms for solving the multivalued general variational inequalities. We also d...
