On the existence of minimal elements in partially ordered sets

نویسنده

چکیده

In this work, we give a characterization of the existence of minimal elements in partially ordered sets in terms of fixed point type statement. This characterization shows that the assumptions in Caristi’s fixed point theorem can, a priori, be weakened. Finally, we give a negative answer to Kirk’s problem on an extension of Caristi’s result.

Interval fractional integrodifferential equations without singular kernel by fixed point in partially ordered sets

This work is devoted to the study of global solution for initial value problem of interval fractional integrodifferential equations involving Caputo-Fabrizio fractional derivative without singular kernel admitting only the existence of a lower solution or an upper solution. Our method is based on fixed point in partially ordered sets. In this study, we guaranty the existence of special kind of ...

Fixed point theorems for $alpha$-$psi$-contractive mappings in partially ordered sets and application to ordinary differential equations

‎In this paper‎, ‎we introduce $alpha$-$psi$-contractive mapping in partially ordered sets and construct fixed point theorems to solve a first-order ordinary differential equation by existence of its lower solution.

On lattice of basic z-ideals

  For an f-ring  with bounded inversion property, we show that   , the set of all basic z-ideals of , partially ordered by inclusion is a bounded distributive lattice. Also, whenever  is a semiprimitive ring, , the set of all basic -ideals of , partially ordered by inclusion is a bounded distributive lattice. Next, for an f-ring  with bounded inversion property, we prove that  is a complemented...

The symmetric monoidal closed category of cpo $M$-sets

In this paper, we show that the category of directed complete posets with bottom elements (cpos) endowed with an action of a monoid $M$ on them forms a monoidal category. It is also proved that this category is symmetric closed.
