A family f_1,...,f_n of operators on a complete metric space X is called contractive if there exists lambda < 1 such that for any x,y in X we have d(f_i(x),f_i(y)) leq lambda d(x,y) for some i. Stein conjectured that for any contractive…
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…
An example due to Pisier shows that two commuting, completely polynomially bounded Hilbert space operators may not be simultaneously similar to contractions. Thus, while each operator is individually similar to a contraction, the pair is…
Taking as model the attractor of an iterated function system consisting of phi-contractions on a complete and bounded metric space, we introduce the set-theoretic concept of family of functions having attractor. We prove that, given such a…
This paper verifies a conjecture posed in a pair of papers on the fixed point sets for a class of quantum operations. Specifically, it is proved that if a quantum operation has mutually commuting operation elements that are effects forming…
Let $H$ be a group acting on a simply-connected diagrammatically reducible combinatorial 2-complex $X$ with fine 1-skeleton. If the fixed point set $X^ H$ is non-empty, then it is contractible. Having fine 1-skeleton is a weaker version of…
We consider a family of piecewise contractions admitting a rotation number and defined for every $x\in[0,1)$ by $f(x)=\lambda x + \delta + d \theta_a(x) \pmod 1$, where $\lambda\in(0,1)$, $d\in(0,1-\lambda)$, $\delta\in[0,1]$, $a\in[0,1]$…
In this paper, we establish some common fixed point results for a new class of pair of contractions mappings having functions as contractive parameters, and satisfying certain commutative properties.
A Furstenberg family $\mathcal{F}$ is a collection of infinite subsets of the set of positive integers such that if $A\subset B$ and $A\in \mathcal{F}$, then $B\in \mathcal{F}$. For a Furstenberg family $\mathcal{F}$, finitely many…
A unitary family is a family of unitary operators $U(x)$ acting on a finite dimensional hermitian vector space, depending analytically on a real parameter $x$. It is monotone if $\frac1i U'(x)U(x)^{-1}$ is a positive operator for each $x$.…
We consider bounded 2-metric spaces satisfying an additional axiom, and show that a contractive mapping has either a fixed point or a fixed line.
Using the setting of $G$-metric spaces, common fixed point theorems for four maps satisfying the weakly commuting conditions are obtained for various generalized contractive conditions. Several examples are also presented to show the…
In this note, we provide a family of $2\times 2$ tetrablock contractions that have tetrablock isometric dilation, but the corresponding fundamental operators do not commute. This answers a question raised by Bhattacharyya [Indiana Univ.…
Let $(T\_\lambda)\_{\lambda\in\Lambda}$ be a family of operators acting on a $F$-space $X$, where the parameter space $\Lambda$ is a subset of $\mathbb R^d$. We give sufficient conditions on the family to yield the existence of a vector…
It is shown that if $S$ is a commuting family of weak$^{\ast }$ continuous nonexpansive mappings acting on a weak$^{\ast }$ compact convex subset $C$ of the dual Banach space $E$, then the set of common fixed points of $S$ is a nonempty…
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…
A commuting triple of operators $(A,B,P)$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is called a tetrablock contraction if the closure of the set $$ E = \{\underline{x}=(x_1,x_2,x_3)\in \mathbb{C}^3: 1-x_1z-x_2w+x_3zw \neq 0 \text{whenever}|z| \leq…
We associate to each iterated function system consisting of phi-max-contractions an operator (on the space of continuous functions from the shift space on the metric space corresponding to the system) having a unique fixed point whose image…
This is a conitunation of [1] and [2]. We prove that if function $f$ belongs to the class $\Lambda_{\omega} \overset{\text{def}}{=} \{f: \omega_{f}(\delta)\leq \text{const} \omega(\delta)\} $ for an arbitrary modulus of continuity $\omega$,…
We prove that, in a large class of Banach lattices, the fixed space of each commuting family of positive linear contractions is a lattice subspace. As consequences, new cyclicity results for the peripheral point spectra of positive…
