In this paper, considering a wider class of simulation functions some fixed point results for multivalued mappings in $\alpha$-complete metric spaces have been presented. Results obtained in this paper extend and generalize some well-known…
The major motives of this paper are to study different types of contractive mappings and also to answer an open question of Garai et al. [The contractive principle for mappings in $b_v(s)$-metric spaces, arXiv:1802.03136]. We first set up…
Some fixed point results are given for a class of functional contractions acting on (reflexive) triangular symmetric spaces. Technical connections with the corresponding theories over (standard) metric and partial metric spaces are also…
Employing the ideas of non-linear preconditioning and testing of the classical proximal point method, we formalise common arguments in convergence rate and convergence proofs of optimisation methods to the verification of a simple…
This paper investigates whether some fixed point theorems for quasi-contractions on metric spaces introduced by \`Cir\`ic in [1] and generalised by Kumam et al. in [2] can be improved further. It turns out that the answer is negative. We…
We disprove the conjecture that structural physical approximations to optimal entanglement witnesses are separable states. The conjecture holds true for extremal decomposable entanglement witnesses.
The growing prevalence of nonsmooth optimization problems in machine learning has spurred significant interest in generalized smoothness assumptions. Among these, the (L0, L1)-smoothness assumption has emerged as one of the most prominent.…
We give conditions for $f$-positivity of relative complete intersections in projective bundles. We also derive an instability result for the fibres.
Suppose that $A$ and $B$ are closed subsets of a Euclidean space such that $A\cap B\neq\varnothing$, and we aim to find a point in this intersection with the help of the sequences $(a_n)_\nnn$ and $(b_n)_\nnn$ generated by the \emph{method…
We introduce and study a general concept of multiple fixed point for mappings defined on partially ordered distance spaces in the presence of a contraction type condition and appropriate monotonicity properties. This notion and the obtained…
We investigate the asymptotic behavior of sequences generated by the proximal point algorithm for convex functions in complete geodesic spaces with curvature bounded above. Using the notion of resolvents of such functions, which was…
In this paper we develop proximal methods for statistical learning. Proximal point algorithms are useful in statistics and machine learning for obtaining optimization solutions for composite functions. Our approach exploits closed-form…
Given two disjoint convex polyhedra, we look for a best approximation pair relative to them, i.e., a pair of points, one in each polyhedron, attaining the minimum distance between the sets. Cheney and Goldstein showed that alternating…
We prove that for any compact set B in R^d and for any epsilon >0 there is a finite subset X of B of |X|=d^{O(1/epsilon^2)} points such that the maximum absolute value of any linear function ell: R^d --> R on X approximates the maximum…
This paper considers the problem of smoothing convex functions and sets, seeking the nearest smooth convex function or set to a given one. For convex cones and sublinear functions, a full characterization of the set of all optimal…
We give properties of strict pseudocontractions and demicontractions defined on a Hilbert space, which constitute wide classes of operators that arise in iterative methods for solving fixed point problems. In particular, we give necessary…
In this paper, we study the properties of closure operators obtained as initial lifts along a reflector, and compactness with respect to them in particular. Applications in the areas of topology, topological groups and topological…
We introduce a wide class of countable groups, called properly proximal, which contains all non-amenable bi-exact groups, all non-elementary convergence groups, and all lattices in non-compact semi-simple Lie groups, but excludes all inner…
The aim of this paper is to present some fixed point theorems for generalized contractions by altering distance functions in a complete cone metric spaces endowed with a partial order. We also generalize fixed point theorems of J. Harjani,…
In this paper we establish some common fixed point theorem for a new class of pair of contractions mappings, called $\psi-(\alpha,\beta, m)$-contraction pairs, which we will assume occasionally weakly compatible and satisfying the property…
