We present some fixed point results for a single mapping and a pair of compatible mappings via auxiliary functions which satisfy a generalized weakly contractive condition in partially ordered complete $G$-metric spaces. Some examples are furnished to illustrate the useability of our main results. At the end, an application is presented to the study of exi...

Two classes of fuzzy mappings, called pseudolinear and g-pseudolinear fuzzy mappings are introduced by relaxing the definitions of pseudo-convex and pseudo-invex fuzzy mappings. First, some characterizations of pseudolinear and g-pseudolinear fuzzy mappings are obtained. Then, characterizations of the solution sets of pseudolinear and g-pseudolinear fuzzy programs are derived.

In this paper, we continue the study of contractive conditions for mappings in complete partial metric spaces. Concretely, we present fixed point results for weakly contractive and weakly Kannan mappings in such a way that the classical metric counterpart results are retrieved as a particular case. Special attention to the cyclical case is paid. Moreover, the well-posedness of the fixed point p...

Some difficulties with the Counterfactual Theory of David K.Lewis (1941-2001) and its applications to the Causation Analysis have appeared. Among them, the Temporal Asymmetry. Many criticism appeared against the explanation given by Lewis, as in Horwich ́87; Price ́92 & ́96; Hausman ́98. Here, we will analyze the possibility of obtain a new function: the Asymmetry Level, by the intervention of Fuz...

Abstract In the present paper concepts of q-rung orthopair fuzzy mappings (q-ROF mapping) and $( \alpha ,\beta ) $ ( α , β ) -cuts are introduced. Some common fixed point results for q-ROF presented in b-metric spaces using Suzuki-type contra...

For a locally compact group G and p ∈ (1,∞), we define Bp(G) to be the space of all coefficient functions of isometric representations of G on quotients of subspaces of Lp spaces. For p = 2, this is the usual Fourier–Stieltjes algebra. We show that Bp(G) is a commutative Banach algebra that contractively (isometrically, if G is amenable) contains the Figà-Talamanca–Herz algebra Ap(G). If 2 ≤ q ...

We find concrete necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of contractive completions of Hankel partial contractions of size 4×4 in the extremal case. Along the way we introduce a new approach that allows us to solve, algorithmically, the contractive completion problem for 4 × 4 Hankel matrices. As an application, we obtain a concrete example of a partially contractive 4× 4 Hankel m...
