We study the topological dynamics by iterations of a piecewise continuous, non linear and locally contractive map in a real finite dimensional compact ball. We consider those maps satisfying the “separation property”: different continuity pieces have disjoint images. The continuity pieces act as stable topological manifolds while the points in the discontinuity lines, separating different conti...

We are concerned with function approximation and image representation using Iterated Function Systems (IFS) over L p (X;): An N-map IFS with grey level maps (IFSM), to be denoted as (w;), is a set w of N contraction maps w i : X ! X over a compact metric space (X; d) (the \base space") with an associated set of maps i : R ! R. Associated with each IFSM is a contractive operator T with xed point...

Let (X, d) be a nonempty metric space, and let (2X , Hd) be the hyperspace of all nonempty compact subsets of X with the Hausdorff metric. Let F :X → 2X be an ε-contractive map. A general condition is given that guarantees the existence of a periodic point of F (the theorem extends a result of Edelstein to multi-valued maps). The condition holds when X is compact; hence, F has a periodic point ...

Let C be a nonempty closed bounded convex subset of a Banach space X whose characteristic of noncompact convexity is less than 1 and T a continuous 1-χ-contractive SL map (which is not necessarily nonexpansive) from C to KC(X) satisfying an inwardness condition, where KC(X) is the family of all nonempty compact convex subsets of X . It is proved that T has a fixed point. Some fixed points resul...

Huang and Zhang cite{Huang} have introduced the concept of cone metric space where the set of real numbers is replaced by an ordered Banach space. Shojaei cite{shojaei} has obtained points of coincidence and common fixed points for s-Contraction mappings which satisfy generalized contractive type conditions in a complete cone metric space.In this paper, the notion of complete cone metric ...

In this paper, we prove that if f is a contractive closed-valued correspondence on a cone metric space (X, d) and there is a contractive orbit {xn} for f at x0 ∈ X such that both {xni} and {xni+1} converge for some subsequence {xni} of {xn}, then f has a fixed point, which generalizes a fixed point theorem for contractive closed-valued correspondences from metric spaces to cone metric spaces.

This paper examines actions of right LCM semigroups by endomorphisms C*-algebras that encode an additional structure the semigroup. We define contractive covariant representations for these semigroup dynamical systems and prove a generalized Stinespring's dilation theorem showing can be dilated if only map on C*-algebra is unital completely positive. generalizes earlier results about dilations ...
