We establish common fixed point theorems for two pairs of weakly compatible self-mappings using an auxiliary function of two variables. Unlike classical results, our theorems do not assume continuity of the mappings and require completeness…

We consider $k$-positive linear systems, that is, systems that map the set of vectors with up to $k-1$ sign variations to itself. For $k=1$, this reduces to positive linear systems. It is well-known that stable positive linear time…

In recent work, we study certain Cayley graphs associated with a finite commutative ring and their multiplicative subgroups. Among various results that we prove, we provide the necessary and sufficient conditions for such a Cayley graph to…

We study learning of indexed families from positive data where a learner can freely choose a hypothesis space (with uniformly decidable membership) comprising at least the languages to be learned. This abstracts a very universal learning…

A sufficient condition is established for the existence of a solution to the equation $\mathcal{T}(u,\mathcal{C}(u))=u$, by considering a class of Kannan type equicontraction mappings $\mathcal{T}:\mathcal{A}\times…

In this paper, we show that a $D$-type map $\Phi_D:M_n\rightarrow M_n$ with $D=(n-2)I_n+P_{\pi_1}+P_{\pi_2}$ induced by a pair $\{\pi_1,\pi_2\}$ of permutations of $(1,2,..., n)$ is positive if $\{\pi_1,\pi_2\}$ has property (C). The…

In a recent breakthrough, Dvir showed that every Kakeya set in $\F^n$ must be of cardinality at least $c_n |\F|^n$ where $c_n \approx 1/n!$. We improve this lower bound to $\beta^n |\F|^n$ for a constant $\beta > 0$. This pins down the…

In this paper, we discuss positive maps induced by (irreducibly) covariant linear operators for finite groups. The application of group theory methods allows deriving some new results of a different kind. In particular, a family of…

We investigate a two-parameter family of linear maps on matrix algebras, constructed as diagonal perturbations of classical Tomiyama maps. Employing the Choi matrix method alongside block-positivity techniques, we derive explicit necessary…

In this article, for generalized projective spaces with any weights, we prove four main theorems in three different contexts where the Unital Set Condition USC (Definition $2.8$) on ideals is further examined. In the first context we prove,…

For any integer $d \geq 1$, we verify the Jacobian Conjecture for a $d$-linear map in two variables. We prove that almost all the coefficients of the formal inverse are in the ideal specified by the Jacobian condition. We find expressions…

We give hierarchy of one-parameter family F(a,x) of maps of the interval [0,1] with an invariant measure. Using the measure, we calculate Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy, or equivalently Lyapunov characteristic exponent, of these maps…

In this paper, we mainly investigate $K_{1,2}$-structure-connectivity for any connected graph. Let $G$ be a connected graph with $n$ vertices, we show that $\kappa(G; K_{1,2})$ is well-defined if $diam(G)\geq 4$, or $n\equiv 1\pmod 3$, or…

We extend the theory of decomposable maps by giving a detailed description of k-positive maps. A relation between transposition and modular theory is established. The structure of positive maps in terms of modular theory (the generalized…

Given positive measures $\nu,\mu$ on an arbitrary measurable space $(\Omega, \mathcal F)$, we construct a sequence of finite partitions $(\pi_n)_n$ of $(\Omega, \mathcal F)$ s.t. $$ \sum_{A\in \pi_n: \mu(A)>0} 1_{A} \frac{\nu(A)}{\mu(A)}…

For integers $k \geq 2$ and $n \geq k+1$, we prove the following: If $n\cdot k$ is even, there is a connected $k$-regular graph on $n$ vertices. If $n\cdot k$ is odd, there is a connected nearly $k$-regular graph on $n$ vertices.

This paper presents several new results related to the Kakeya problem. First, we establish a geometric inequality which says that collections of direction-separated tubes (thin neighborhoods of line segments that point in different…

This paper considers a kind of generalized measure $\kappa_s^{(h)}$ of fault tolerance in the $(n,k)$-star graph $S_{n,k}$ and determines $\kappa_s^{(h)}(S_{n,k})=n+h(k-2)-1$ for $2 \leqslant k \leqslant n-1$ and $0\leqslant h \leqslant…

We study mappings that satisfy the inverse modulus inequality of Poletsky type in a fixed domain. It is shown that, under some additional restrictions, the image of a ball under such mappings contains a fixed ball uniformly over the class.…

The concept of $k$-planarity is extensively studied in the context of Beyond Planarity. A graph is $k$-planar if it admits a drawing in the plane in which each edge is crossed at most $k$ times. The local crossing number of a graph is the…
