This study focuses on defining normal and strictly convex structures within Menger cone PM-space. It also presents a shared fixed point theorem for the existence of two self-mappings constructed on a strictly convex probabilistic cone…
Atiyah's conjecture concerning configurations of N points in the Euclidean three-space is verified for the following nonplanar configurations: The first m points lie on a line L and the remaining n=N-m (>2) points are the vertices of a…
We give a combinatorial upper bound for the gonality of a curve that is defined by a bivariate Laurent polynomial with given Newton polygon. We conjecture that this bound is generically attained, and provide proofs in a considerable number…
In this article we discuss a possibility to implement a well-known scheme of proof for contraction mapping theorems in a situation, when convergence, families of Cauchy sequences, and contractiveness of mappings are defined axiomatically.…
We provide theorems containnig both Kakutani and Browder fixed points theorems as immediate corollaries, as well as Michael and Browder selection theorems. For this purpose we introduce convex structures more general than those of locally…
Derrick's theorem is an important result that decides the existence of soliton configurations in field theories in different dimensions. It is proved using the extremization of finite energy of configurations under the scaling…
It is shown that the Poincar\'e-Birkhoff fixed point theorem may be proven by extending the geometric approach originally devised by Henri Poincar\'e himself, along with several results from elementary differential topology. Beginning with…
The celebrated union-closed conjecture is concerned with the cardinalities of various subsets of the Boolean $d$-cube. The cardinality of such a set is equivalent, up to a constant, to its measure under the uniform distribution, so we can…
In this article we establish some fixed point (known also as critical point, invariant point) theorems in quasi-metric spaces. Our results unify and further extend in some regards the fixed point theorem proposed by Dancs et al. (1983), the…
We formulate a theory of shape valid for objects of arbitrary dimension whose contours are path connected. We apply this theory to the design and modeling of viable trajectories of complex dynamical systems. Infinite families of…
We prove fixed point theorems in a space with a distance function that takes values in a partially ordered monoid. On the one hand, such an approach allows one to generalize some fixed point theorems in a broad class of spaces, including…
It is well known that plane curves with the same endpoints are homotopic. An analogous claim for plane curves with the same endpoints and bounded curvature still remains open. In this work we find necessary and sufficient conditions for two…
Newton's quadrilateral theorem can be phrased as follows. If H is a circle that is tangent to the four extended sides of a non-parallelogram quadrilateral Q, the center of H lies on the Newton line of Q. We prove that the theorem remains…
We give a new proof of Brooks' theorem that immediately implies a strengthening of Brooks' theorem, known as Catlin's theorem.
The Tait-Kneser theorem states that the osculating circles of a plane curve with monotonic curvature are pairwise disjoint and nested. We discuss this theorem and a number of its variations.
Main Theorem. Two parabols have four common points. There exists a circle tangent to the sides of the obtained parabolic quadrilateral if and only if the diagonals of this quadrilateral are orthogonal. The proof of the Main Theorem is…
For a given partially ordered set (poset) and a given family of mappings of the poset into itself, we study the problem of the description of joint fixed points of this family. Well-known Tarski's theorem gives the structure of the set of…
We show that string theory with Dirichlet boundaries is equivalent to string theory containing surfaces with certain singular points. Surface curvature is singular at these points. A singular point is resolved in conformal coordinates to a…
Our aim is to prove a Poncelet type theorem for a line configuration on the complex projective. More precisely, we say that a polygon with 2n sides joining 2n vertices A1, A2,..., A2n is well inscribed in a configuration Ln of n lines if…
We prove a fixed point theorem for closed-graphed, decomposable-valued correspondences whose domain and range is a decomposable set of functions from an atomless measure space to a topological space. One consequence is an improvement of the…
