This paper first proves two fixed point theorems in complete random normed modules, which are respectively the random generalizations of the classical Banach's contraction mapping principle and Browder--Kirk's fixed point theorem. As…

A recurrent formula is presented, for the enumeration of the compositions of positive integers as sums over multisets of positive integers, that closely resembles Euler's recurrence based on the pentagonal numbers, but where the…

The concept of fixed point plays a crucial role in various fields of applied mathematics. The aim of this paper is to establish the existence of a unique fixed point of some type of functions which satisfy a new contraction principle,…

Some recent processors are not equipped with an integer division unit. Compilers then implement division by a call to a special function supplied by the processor designers, which implements division by a loop producing one bit of quotient…

In this paper, using Kronecker's theorem, we discuss the set of common fixed points of an n-parameter continuous semigroup of mappings. We also discuss convergence theorems to a common fixed point of an n-parameter nonexpansive semigroup.

Partition functions arise in statistical physics and probability theory as the normalizing constant of Gibbs measures and in combinatorics and graph theory as graph polynomials. For instance the partition functions of the hard-core model…

In this note, we consider a framework for the analysis of iterative algorithms which can described in terms of a structured set-valued operator. More precisely, at each point in the ambient space, we assume that the value of operator can be…

We exhibit invariants of smooth projective algebraic varieties with integer values, whose nonvanishing modulo p prevents the existence of an action without fixed points of certain finite p-groups. The case of base fields of characteristic p…

In this short note we present a class of conjectures on partitions of integers as summations of primes, which are extensions of Goldbach conjecture.

Theoretical and computational properties of a vector equation $Ax-\|x\|_1x=b$ are investigated, where $A$ is an invertible $M$-matrix and $b$ is a nonnegative vector. Existence and uniqueness of a nonnegative solution is proved. Fixed-point…

Studies on partition of $I_n$ = $\{1, 2, . . . , n\}$ into subsets $S_1, S_2, . . . , S_x$ so far considered with prescribed sum of the elements in each subset. In this paper, we study constant sum partitions $\{S_1,S_2,...,S_x\}$ of $I_n$…

We introduce a variant of PCPs, that we refer to as rectangular PCPs, wherein proofs are thought of as square matrices, and the random coins used by the verifier can be partitioned into two disjoint sets, one determining the row of each…

The following natural question arises from Shalom's innovational work (1999, Publ. IHES): "Can we establish an intrinsic criterion to synthesize relative fixed point properties into the whole fixed point property without assuming Bounded…

The study of the well-known partition function $p(n)$ counting the number of solutions to $n = a_{1} + \dots + a_{\ell}$ with integers $1 \leq a_{1} \leq \dots \leq a_{\ell}$ has a long history in combinatorics. In this paper, we study a…

Numerous congruences for partitions with designated summands have been proven since first being introduced and studied by Andrews, Lewis, and Lovejoy. This paper explicitly characterizes the number of partitions with designated summands…

In this paper, we generalize a few important results in Integer Partitions; namely the results known as Stanley's theorem and Elder's theorem, and the congruence results proposed by Ramanujan for the partition function. We generalize the…

In the preceding decade, Andrews and Newman resurrected the concept of a `minimal excludant' of a partition ($mex$, for short), namely, the least positive missing integer in a partition. Subsequently, several authors have not only studied…

We give a possible explanation for the mystery of a missing number in the statement of a problem that asks for the non-negative integers to be partitioned into three subsets. We interpret the missing number as one of the clues that can lead…

We consider a class of nonsmooth fractional programming problems with fixed-point constraints, where the numerator is convex and the denominator is concave. To solve this problem, we propose splitting algorithms that compute subgradient…

In this present article, we etablish some existence results of $\varphi-$fixed point of a mapping in a $C^{\ast}$-algebra valued metric spaces and we deduce some fixed point theorems in $C^{\ast}$-algebra valued partial metric spaces.…
