We study piecewise injective, but not necessarily globally injective, contracting maps on a compact subset of \(\bR^d\). We prove that generically the attractor and the set of discontinuities of such a map are disjoint, and hence the…
We consider the problem of maximizing a convex function over a closed convex set in a real Hilbert space. For linear functions, we show that a single orthogonal projection suffices to obtain an approximate solution. For continuous convex…
We develop a synthesis of orthomodular logic (projections as propositions) with operator fixed-point theory in Hilbert spaces. First, we introduce an anchored implication connective $A \Rightarrow^{\mathrm{comm}}_{P} B$, defined…
We study the existence and uniqueness of (locally) absolutely continuous trajectories of a dynamical system governed by a nonexpansive operator. The weak convergence of the orbits to a fixed point of the operator is investigated by relying…
We introduce a new class of abstract structures, which we call generalized ultrametric semilattices, and in which the meet operation of the semilattice coexists with a generalized distance function in a tightly coordinated way. We prove a…
Differentially positive systems are systems whose linearization along trajectories is positive. Under mild assumptions, their solutions asymptotically converge to a one-dimensional attractor, which must be a limit cycle in the absence of…
In this work, we deal with an iteration method for approximating a fixed point of a contraction mapping using the Mann's algorithm under functional random errors. We first show its almost complete convergence to the fixed point by mean of…
Fixpoints are ubiquitous in computer science and when dealing with quantitative semantics and verification one often considers least fixpoints of (higher-dimensional) functions over the non-negative reals. We show how to approximate the…
Motivated by the recent approach of Milman, Shabelman, and Yehudayoff \cite{MilmanShabelmanYehudayoff2025}, we establish, for $p\geq 1$, a complete characterization of the fixed points of the composition of the $L_p$-centroid operator and…
This article aims to present the $AT$ algorithm, a novel two-step iterative approach for approximating fixed points of weak contractions within complete normed linear spaces. The article demonstrates the convergence of $AT$ algorithm…
In this paper, we study the existence of fixed points for mappings defined on complete, (sequentially compact) cone metric spaces, satisfying a general contractive inequality depending of two additional mappings.
It is shown that the time-averaged dynamics of memristors and their networks periodically driven by alternating-polarity pulses may converge to fixed-point attractors. Starting with a general memristive system model, we derive basic…
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…
Following the work of Louisa and Michael Barnsley on results in tops of iterated function systems, we extend their work to graph-directed iterated function systems by investigating the relationship between top addresses and shift spaces.…
We examine the fixed space of positive trace-preserving super-operators. We describe a specific structure that this space must have and what the projection onto it must look like. We show how these results, in turn, lead to an alternative…
We investigate the use of iterated function system (IFS) models for data analysis. An IFS is a discrete dynamical system in which each time step corresponds to the application of one of a finite collection of maps. The maps, which represent…
We introduce a novel class of self-mappings on metric spaces, called \textbf{PA-contractions} (Path-Averaged Contractions), defined by an averaging condition over iterated distances. We prove that every continuous PA-contraction on a…
We prove a fixed-point theorem that generalises and simplifies a number of results in the theory of $F$-contractions. We show that all of the previously imposed conditions on the operator can be either omitted or relaxed. Furthermore, our…
The set of effect operators in a complex Hilbert space can be injectively embedded into the set of functions from the set of one-dimensional projections to the real interval [0,1]. Properties of this injection are investigated.
A recent result characterizes the fully order reversing operators acting on the class of lower semicontinuous proper convex functions in a real Banach space as certain linear deformations of the Legendre-Fenchel transform. Motivated by the…
