Some new limit contractive conditions in fuzzy metric spaces are introduced, by using property (E.A), some common fixed point theorems for four maps are proved in GV-fuzzy metric spaces. As an application of our results, some new contractive conditions are presented, and some common fixed point theorems are proved under these contractive conditions. The contractive conditions presented in this ...

We introduce center-like subsets Z*(R,f), Z**(R,f) and Z1(R,f), where R is a ring and f is a map from R to R. For f a derivation or a non-identity epimorphism and R a suitably-chosen prime or semiprime ring, we prove that these sets coincide with the center of R.

We consider contractive homomorphisms of a planar algebra A(Ω) over a finitely connected bounded domain Ω ⊆ C and ask if they are necessarily completely contractive. We show that a homomorphism ρ : A(Ω) → B(H) for which dim(A(Ω)/ ker ρ) = 2 is the direct integral of homomorphisms ρT induced by operators on two dimensional Hilbert spaces via a suitable functional calculus ρT : f 7→ f(T ), f ∈ A(...

The following concepts shall be required in the sequel: Definition 1.1 [5, 27]. A uniform space (X,Φ) is a nonempty set X equipped with a nonempty family Φ of subsets of X ×X satisfying the following properties: (i) if U is in Φ, then U contains the diagonal {(x, x) |x ∈ X}; (ii) if U is in Φ and V is a subset of X ×X which contains U, then V is in Φ; (iii) if U and V are in Φ, then U ∩ V is in...

In recent time, fixed point theory has been developed rapidly in partially ordered metric space. Bhaskar and Lakshmikantham (2006) introduced the concept of mixed monotone property. Lakshmikanthem and Ciric (2009) generalized the concept of mixed monotone mapping and proved a common coupled fixed point theorem. In this paper, we find a new type of contractive condition on Gmetric spaces also th...

We said that φ is n-positive if φn is positive and that φ is completely positive if φn is positive for all n. The map φ is said to be n-bounded (resp., n-contractive) if ‖φn‖ ≤ c (resp., ‖φn‖ ≤ 1). The map φ is said to be completely bounded (resp., completely contractive) if ‖φ‖cb = supn‖φ‖n <∞ (resp., ‖φ‖cc = supn‖φn‖ ≤ 1). npositivity (resp., n-boundedness or n-contractivity) implies (n−1)-po...

A systematic framework for analyzing dynamical attributes of games has not been well-studied except the special class potential or near-potential games. In particular, existing results have shortcomings in determining asymptotic behavior a given dynamics designated game. Although there is large body literature on developing convergent to Nash equilibrium (NE) game, general, an underlying may be...

(ii) Denote this map by φ, which is induced by the compositions with εi : Xi ↪→ ⊔ j Xj , i ∈ I. If φ(fi) = φ(gj) for some fi ∈ Hom(Y,Xi) and gj ∈ Hom(Y,Xj), then we must have i = j because φ(fi) and φ(gj) have the same image. Since φ(fi) = εi ◦ fi, φ(gi) = εi ◦ gi and εi is an injective map, we deduce that fi(y) = gi(y), ∀y ∈ Y , i.e. fi = gi. (iii) This map is induced by the composition with t...

We present a new indexing method named ZINC (for Z-order Indexing with Nested Code) that supports efficient skyline computation for data with both totally and partially ordered attribute domains. The key innovation in ZINC is based on combining the strengths of the ZB-tree, which is the state-of-the-art index method for computing skylines involving totally ordered domains, with a novel, nested ...

We introduce Suzuki type P-contractive mappings by taking into account the concepts of contractive, P-contractive, and contractive mappings. Then, for such on compact metric spaces, we present a fixed point theorem that is more general than well-known Edelstein theorem.
