This paper considers metric projections onto a closed subset S of a Hilbert space. If the set S is convex, then it is well known that the corresponding metric projections always exist, unique and directionally differentiable at boundary points of S. These properties of metric projections are considered for possibly nonconvex sets S. In particular, existence and directional differentiability of ...

we first obtain some properties of a fundamentally nonexpansive self-mapping on a nonempty subset of a banach space and next show that if the banach space is having the opial condition, then the fixed points set of such a mapping with the convex range is nonempty. in particular, we establish that if the banach space is uniformly convex, and the range of such a mapping is bounded, closed and con...

We construct a locally finite graph and a bounded geometry metric space which do not admit a quasi-isometric embedding into any uniformly convex Banach space. Connections with the geometry of c0 and superreflexivity are discussed. The question of coarse embeddability into uniformly convex Banach spaces became interesting after the recent work of G. Kasparov and G. Yu, who showed the coarse Novi...

A subset M of a topological space 5 is said to have a convex metric (even though S may have no metric) if the subspace M of 5 has a convex metric. It is known [5 J that a compact continuum is locally connected if it has a convex metric. The question has been raised [5] as to whether or not a compact locally connected continuum M can be assigned a convex metric. Menger showed [5] that M is conve...

*Correspondence: [email protected] Department of Mathematics, Bu-Ali Sina University, Hamedan, Iran Abstract In this paper, we study some fixed point theorems for self-mappings satisfying certain contraction principles on a convex complete metric space. In addition, we investigate some common fixed point theorems for a Banach operator pair under certain generalized contractions on a convex c...

The Laplace-Beltrami operator of a smooth Riemannian manifold is determined by the Riemannian metric. Conversely, the heat kernel constructed from its eigenvalues and eigenfunctions determines the Riemannian metric. This work proves the analogy on Euclidean polyhedral surfaces (triangle meshes), that the discrete Laplace-Beltrami operator and the discrete Riemannian metric (unique up to a scali...
