In a recent article, Khojasteh et al. introduced a new class of simulation functions, Z-contractions, with blending over known contractive conditions in the literature. Subsequently, in this paper, we extend and generalize the results on…
We consider finite element solutions to quadratic optimization problems, where the state depends on the control via a well-posed linear partial differential equation. Exploiting the structure of a suitably reduced optimality system, we…
We introduce the concept of shifting distance functions, and we establish a new fixed point theorem which generalizes the Banach contraction principle. An example is provided to illustrate our result.
We introduce a weak asymptotic version of nonlinear contraction, termed \emph{asymptotic pointwise contraction}. For a mapping on a metric space, this notion requires the existence of a sequence of functions that dominate the distances…
We consider a variation of the classical proximal-gradient algorithm for the iterative minimization of a cost function consisting of a sum of two terms, one smooth and the other prox-simple, and whose relative weight is determined by a…
For two nonempty, closed, bounded and convex subsets $A$ and $B$ of a uniformly convex Banach space $X$ consider a mapping $T:(A \times B) \cup (B \times A) \rightarrow A \cup B$ satisfying $T(A,B) \subset B$ and $T(B, A) \subset A$. In…
