In this paper we disprove the following conjectured generalization of the Contraction Mapping Theorem (due to J.D. Stein Jr.): Let X be a complete metric space and let F be a finite family of self-maps of X. Suppose there is a postive…
We prove that a graph has an infinitesimally rigid placement in a non-Euclidean normed plane if and only if it contains a $(2,2)$-tight spanning subgraph. The method uses an inductive construction based on generalised Henneberg moves and…
We analyze the stability of the Von K\'arm\'an model for thin plates subject to pure Neumann conditions and to dead loads, with no restriction on their direction. We prove a stability alternative, which extends previous results by…
