Given a finite and non-empty set $X$ and randomly selected specific functions and relations on $X$, we investigate the existence and non-existence of fixed points and reflexive points, respectively. First, we consider the class of…
We investigate the renormalization group flows and fixed point structure of many coupled minimal models. The models are coupled two by two by energy-energy couplings. We take the general approach where the bare couplings are all taken to be…
A $K$-Fibonacci sequence is a binary recurrence sequence where $F_0=0$, $F_1=1$, and $F_n=K\cdot F_{n-1}+F_{n-2}$. These sequences are known to be periodic modulo every positive integer greater than $1$. If the length of one shortest period…
We derive simplified formulas for analyzing the stability of stochastic parametrically forced linear systems. This extends the results in [T. Blass and L.A. Romero, SIAM J. Control Optim. 51(2):1099--1127, 2013] where, assuming the…
Our work presents a new iterative scheme to approximate the fixed points of nonexpansive mapping. The proposed algorithm is constructed to enhance convergence efficiency while preserving theoretical robustness. Under appropriate assumptions…
Looped transformers promise test-time compute scaling by spending more iterations on harder problems, but it remains unclear which architectural choices let them extrapolate to harder problems at test time rather than memorize…
Using the theory of fixed point index, we discuss the existence and multiplicity of non-negative solutions of a wide class of boundary value problems with coupled nonlinear boundary conditions. Our approach is fairly general and covers a…
We prove that the fixed point iteration of arbitrary positive concave mappings with nonempty fixed point set converges geometrically for any starting point. We also show that positivity is crucial for this result to hold, and the concept of…
We study number theoretic properties of the map $x \mapsto x^{x} \mod{p}$, where $x \in \{1,2,\ldots,p-1\}$, and improve on some recent upper bounds, due to Kurlberg, Luca, and Shparlinski, on the number of primes $p < N$ for which the map…
Persistent homology is a popular and useful tool for analysing finite metric spaces, revealing features that can be used to distinguish sets of unlabeled points and as input into machine learning pipelines. The famous stability theorem of…
We present an alternative approach to the vector version of Krasnosel'skii compression-expansion fixed point theorem due to Precup, which is based on the fixed point index. It allows us to obtain new general versions of this fixed point…
Using the theory of fixed point index, we establish new results for the existence of nonzero solutions of Hammerstein integral equations with reflections. We apply our results to a first order periodic boundary value problem with…
By some extremely simple arguments, we point out the following: (i) If n is the least positive k-th power non-residue modulo a positive integer m, then the greatest number of consecutive k-th power residues mod m is smaller than m/n. (ii)…
We study the parameters range for the fixed point of a class of complex dynamics with the rational fractional function as $R_{n,a,c}(z)=z^n+\frac{a}{z^n}+c$, where $n=1,2,3,4$ is specified, $a$ and $c$ are two complex parameters. The…
We show that a continuous map or a continuous flow on $\R^{n}$ with a certain recurrence relation must have a fixed point. Specifically, if there is a compact set W with the property that the forward orbit of every point in $\R^{n}$…
Mixtures of $r$ independent distributions for two discrete random variables can be represented by matrices of nonnegative rank $r$. Likelihood inference for the model of such joint distributions leads to problems in real algebraic geometry…
Our main aim in this paper is to introduce a general concept of multidimensional fixed point of a mapping in spaces with distance and establish various multidimensional fixed point results. This new concept simplifies the similar notion…
For a domain A of characteristic zero, a polynomial f over A[x] is called a strongly residual coordinate if f becomes a coordinate (over A) upon going modulo x, and f becomes a coordinate upon inverting x. We study the question of when a…
Fixed point algorithms play an important role to compute feasible solutions to the radio power control problems in wireless networks. Although these algorithms are shown to converge to the fixed points that give feasible problem solutions,…
In this paper, we see several basic properties of graded linear series. We firstly see that, if a graded linear series contains an ample series, then so are the pullbacks of the system under birational morphisms. Using this proposition, we…
