Given $A$ and $B$ two nonempty subsets in a metric space, a mapping $T : A \cup B \rightarrow A \cup B$ is relatively nonexpansive if $d(Tx,Ty) \leq d(x,y) \text{for every} x\in A, y\in B.$ A best proximity point for such a mapping is a…
We investigate the connections between UC and UC* properties for ordered pairs of subsets (A,B) in metric spaces, which are involved in the study of existence and uniqueness of best proximity points. We show that the $UC^{*}$ property is…
The paper gives some results on best proximity and fixed point for a class of generalized hybrid cyclic self-mappings in Banach spaces.
We consider matchings with diametral disks between two sets of points R and B. More precisely, for each pair of matched points p in R and q in B, we consider the disk through p and q with the smallest diameter. We prove that for any R and B…
In this paper we establish the existence of related fixed points theorems for two pairs of mappings with different contraction conditions in two fuzzy metric spaces.
The optimal pair of two linear varieties is considered as a best approximation problem, namely the distance between a point and the difference set of two linear varieties. The Gram determinant allows to get the optimal pair in closed form.
We first introduce a notion of convex structure in generalized metric spaces, then we introduce tripartite contractions, tripartite semi-contractions, tripartite coincidence points, as well as tripartite best proximity points for a given…
Given functions $f,g: [n] \rightarrow [n]$ do there exist $n$ points $A_1,A_2\ldots A_n$ in some metric space such that $A_{f(i)},A_{g(i)}$ are the points closest and farthest from point $A_i$? In this paper we characterize precisely which…
Let F(X) be the set of finite nonempty subsets of a set X. We have found the necessary and sufficient conditions under which for a given function f:F(X)-->R there is an ultrametric on X such that f(A)=diam A for every A\in F(X). For finite…
An ultrametric defined on a subset S of a metric space X can be extended to X while roughly preserving distances between pairs in S x X.
In this paper we study the existence and uniqueness of best proximity points of cyclic contractions as well as the convergence of iterates to such proximity points. We do it from two different approaches, leading each one of them to…
We propose a novel method for template matching in unconstrained environments. Its essence is the Best-Buddies Similarity (BBS), a useful, robust, and parameter-free similarity measure between two sets of points. BBS is based on counting…
This paper focuses on the best approximation in quasi-cone metric spaces, a combination of quasi-metrics and cone metrics, which generalizes the notion of distance by allowing it to take values in an ordered Banach space. We explore the…
This paper investigates the fixed points and best proximity points of multivalued cyclic self-mappings in metric spaces under a generalized contractive condition involving Hausdorff distances.
We consider the problem of choosing Euclidean points to maximize the sum of their weighted pairwise distances, when each point is constrained to a ball centered at the origin. We derive a dual minimization problem and show strong duality…
The center of distances of a metric space $(X,d)$ is the set $C(X)$ of all $t\in \mathbb R^+$ for which the equation $d(x,p)=t$ has a solution for each $p\in X$. We prove the inequality $|C(X)| \le 1 + \lfloor \log_2 n \rfloor$ for all…
Given two disjoint convex polyhedra, we look for a best approximation pair relative to them, i.e., a pair of points, one in each polyhedron, attaining the minimum distance between the sets. Cheney and Goldstein showed that alternating…
In this article, we give new results in the startpoint theory for quasi-pseudometric spaces. The results we present provide us with the existence of startpoint (endpoint, fixed point) for multi-valued maps defined on a bicomplete…
Given two nonempty and disjoint intersections of closed and convex subsets, we look for a best approximation pair relative to them, i.e., a pair of points, one in each intersection, attaining the minimum distance between the disjoint…
