We introduce an iterative scheme by the viscosity approximate method for finding a common element of the set of solutions of a variational inclusion with set-valued maximal monotone mapping and inverse stronglymonotonemappings, the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem, and the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping. We obtain a strong convergence theorem for the sequences generated...

We introduce a hybrid iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of solutions for a system of mixed equilibrium problems, the set of common fixed point for nonexpansive semigroup, and the set of solutions of the quasi-variational inclusion problem with multivalued maximal monotone mappings and inverse-strongly monotone mappings in Hilbert space. Under suitable conditions, some str...

A new error control finite element formulation is developed and implemented based on the variational multiscale method, the inclusion theory in homogenization, and the Zienkiewicz–Zhu error estimator. By synthesizing variational multiscale method in computational mechanics, the equivalent eigenstrain principle in micromechanics, and the Zienkiewicz–Zhu error estimator in the finite element meth...

We reexamine the problem of having nonconservative equations of motion arise from the use of a variational principle. In particular, a formalism is developed that allows the inclusion of fractional derivatives. This is done within the Lagrangian framework by treating the action as a Volterra series. It is then possible to derive two equations of motion, one of these is an advanced equation and ...

Exploiting minmax characterizations for nonlinear and nonoverdamped eigenvalue problems, we prove the existence of a countable set of eigenvalues converging to ∞ and inclusion theorems for a rational spectral problem governing mechanical vibrations of a tube bundle immersed in an incompressible viscous fluid. The paper demonstrates that the variational characterization of eigenvalues is a power...

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce and study the extended Newton-type method for solving the variational inclusion 0∈ f (x)+g(x)+F(x), where f :Ω⊆X→Y is Fréchet differentiable in a neighborhood Ω of a point x̄ in X, g:Ω⊆X→Y is linear and differentiable at point x̄, and F is a set-valued mapping with closed graph acting in Banach spaces X and Y. Semilocal and local convergence of the extended N...

A classical tool in nonlinear analysis is the notion of an approximating curve, whereby a particular solution to a nonuniquely solvable problem is obtained as the limit of the solutions to uniquely solvable perturbed problems. We introduce and analyze new types of approximating curves for nonexpansive fixed point problems and monotone inclusion problems in Hilbert spaces. The solution attained ...

In this paper we study the minimax control of systems governed by a nonlinear evolution inclusion of the subdifferential type. Using some continuity and lower semicontinuity results for the solution map and the cost functional respectively, we are able to establish the existence of an optimal control. The abstract results are then applied to obstacle problems, semilinear systems with weakly var...

General framework for proximal point algorithms based on the notion of (A, η)-maximal monotonicity (also referred to as (A, η)monotonicity in literature) is developed. Linear convergence analysis for this class of algorithms to the context of solving a general class of nonlinear variational inclusion problems is successfully achieved along with some results on the generalized resolvent correspo...
