We present a global bifurcation result for critical values of $C^1$ maps in Banach spaces. The approach is topological based on homotopy equivalence of pairs of topological spaces. For $C^2$ maps, we prove a particular global bifurcation…

We introduce two novel primal-dual algorithms for addressing nonconvex, nonconcave, and nonsmooth saddle point problems characterized by the weak Minty Variational Inequality (MVI). The first algorithm, Nonconvex-Nonconcave Primal-Dual…

In this paper, a general hybrid fixed point theorem for the contractive mappings in generalized Banach spaces is proved via measure of weak non-compactness and it is further applied to fractional integral equations for proving the existence…

We give sufficient conditions for a $ C^1_c $-local diffeomorphism between Fr\'{e}chet spaces to be a global one. We extend the Clarke's theory of generalized gradients to the more general setting of Fr\'{e}chet spaces. As a consequence, we…

We prove an implicit function theorem for C^k-maps from arbitrary topological vector spaces over valued fields to Banach spaces (for k at least 2). As a tool, we show the C^k-dependence of fixed points on parameters for suitable families of…

By using the well-known mountain pass theorem and Ekeland's variational principle, we prove that there exist at least two fully-non-trivial solutions for a $(p,q)$-Kirchhoff elliptic system with the Dirichlet boundary conditions and…

We formalize a transfinite Phi process that treats all possibility embeddings as operators on structured state spaces including complete lattices, Banach and Hilbert spaces, and orthomodular lattices. We prove a determinization lemma…

The aim of this paper is investigating the existence of one or more critical points of a family of functionals which generalizes the model problem \[ \bar J(u)\ =\ \frac1p\ \int_\Omega \bar A(x,u)|\nabla u|^p dx - \int_\Omega G(x,u) dx \]…

The purpose of this paper is to study the existence of weak solutions for some classes of one-parameter subelliptic gradient-type systems involving a Sobolev-Hardy potential defined on an unbounded domain $\Omega_\psi$ of the Heisenberg…

A parametric version of Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem, which is proven using the fixed-point index, states that for every continuous mapping $f : (X \times Y) \to Y$, where $X$ is nonempty, compact, and connected subset of a Hausdorff…

We propose an alternating subgradient method with non-constant step sizes for solving convex-concave saddle-point problems associated with general convex-concave functions. We assume that the sequence of our step sizes is not summable but…

This paper shows that a perturbed form of gradient descent converges to a second-order stationary point in a number iterations which depends only poly-logarithmically on dimension (i.e., it is almost "dimension-free"). The convergence rate…

The first order condition of the constrained minimization problem leads to a saddle point problem. A multigrid method using a multiplicative Schwarz smoother for saddle point problems can thus be interpreted as a successive subspace…

Critical points of an invariant function may or may not be symmetric. We prove, however, that if a symmetric critical point exists, those adjacent to it are generically symmetry breaking. This mathematical mechanism is shown to carry…

We outline an alternative approach to the geometric notion of a saddle point for real-valued functions of two variables. It is argued that this is more natural compared to the usual treatment of this topic in standard texts on Calculus.

In this paper we extend certain central results of zero dimensional systems to higher dimensions. The first main result shows that if (Y,f) is a finitely presented system, then there exists a Smale space (X,F) and a u-resolving factor map…

Let $(X,T)$ be a topological dynamical system. A pair of points $(x,y)\in X^2$ is called Banach proximal if for any $\epsilon>0$, the set $\{n\in\mathbb{Z}:\ d(T^nx,T^ny)<\epsilon\}$ has Banach density one. We study the structure of the…

We show that a doubly minimal system $X$ has the property that for every minimal system $Y$ the orbit closure of any pair $(y,x) \in Y \times X$ is either $Y \times X$ or it has the form $\Gamma_\pi = \{(\pi(x),x) : x \in X\}$ for some…
