in this paper, the gradual real numbers are considered and the notion of the gradual normed linear space is given. also some topological properties of such spaces are studied, and it is shown that the gradual normed linear space is a locally convex space, in classical sense. so the results in locally convex spaces can be translated in gradual normed linear spaces. finally, we give an examp...

Let Z and X be Banach spaces, U ⊂ Z an open convex set and f : U → X a mapping. We say that f is a delta-convex mapping (d. c. mapping) if there exists a continuous convex function h on U such that y ◦ f + h is a continuous convex function for each y ∈ Y , ‖y∗‖ = 1. We say that f : U → X is locally d. c. if for each x ∈ U there exists an open convex U ′ such that x ∈ U ′ ⊂ U and f |U ′ is d. c....

In this article we survey the existence of best proximity points for a class of non-self mappings which‎ satisfy a particular nonexpansiveness condition. In this way, we improve and extend a main result of Abkar and Gabeleh [‎A‎. ‎Abkar‎, ‎M‎. ‎Gabeleh‎, Best proximity points of non-self mappings‎, ‎Top‎, ‎21, (2013)‎, ‎287-295]‎ which guarantees the existence of best proximity points for nonex...

Introduction. In [l] L. Markus and the author introduced the concept of holonomy covering spaces for flat affinely connected manifolds or what are also called locally affine spaces. We also proved in [l ] that the holonomy covering space of a complete « dimensional locally affine space must be some « dimensional cylinder, i.e., T^XF"-*, i = 0, •■-,«, where T* denotes the locally affine i dimens...

Let Z andX be Banach spaces, U ⊂ Z be an open convex set and f : U → X be a mapping. We say that f is a d.c. mapping if there exists a continuous convex function h on U such that y ◦ f + h is a continuous convex function for each y ∈ Y , ‖y∗‖ = 1. We say that f : U → X is locally d.c. if for each x ∈ U there exists open convex U ′ such that x ∈ U ′ ⊂ U and f |U ′ is d.c. This notion of d.c. map...

Completely regular pseudo-compact spaces have been characterized in several ways. E. Hewitt [6, pp. 68-70] has given one characterization in terms of the Stone-Cech compactification and another in terms of the zero sets of continuous functions. J. Colmez [2; no proofs included] and I. Glicksberg [4] have obtained characterizations by means of a convergence property for sequences of continuous f...

A normed space $mathfrak{X}$ is said to have the fixed point property, if for each nonexpansive mapping $T : E longrightarrow E $ on a nonempty bounded closed convex subset $ E $ of $ mathfrak{X} $ has a fixed point. In this paper, we first show that if $ X $ is a locally compact Hausdorff space then the following are equivalent: (i) $X$ is infinite set, (ii) $C_0(X)$ is infinite dimensional, (...
