the aim of this paper is to prove a common fixed point theorem for nonexpansive type single valued mappings which include both continuous and discontinuous mappings by relaxing the condition of continuity by weak reciprocally continuous mapping. our result is generalize and extends the corresponding result of jhade et al. [p.k. jhade, a.s. saluja and r. kushwah, coincidence and fixed points of ...

a b s t r a c t there are three types of nerve fibers that are involved in the transmission of pain stimuli: c fibers (slower fibers) for thermal, mechanical and chemical stimuli, a-delta fibers for thermal or mechanical stimuli and a-beta fibers for touch stimuli. clinically, this is crucial in making an accurate assessment of the pain level experienced by a suffering patient, in indicating th...

This study explores the aspect of satisfaction with jobs and career, and the predictors of job satisfaction among the emerging adults in Alberta. Obtaining data from the 2003 Alberta High School Graduate Survey among a sample of 1,030 emerging adults from Alberta, the paper examines the predictors of job satisfaction among the emerging adults, which are self-esteem, happiness, work-reward prefe...

A growing body of literature demonstrates that racial group membership can influence neural responses, e.g. when individuals perceive or interact with persons of another race. However, little attention has been paid to social class, a factor that interacts with racial inequalities in American society. We extend previous literature on race-related neural activity by focusing on how the human bra...

A concept of weak $f$-property for a set-valued mapping is introduced‎, ‎and then under some suitable assumptions‎, ‎which do not involve any information‎ ‎about the solution set‎, ‎the lower semicontinuity of the solution mapping to‎ ‎the parametric‎ ‎set-valued vector equilibrium-like problems are derived by using a density result and scalarization method‎, ‎where the‎ ‎constraint set $K$...

— Nowadays e-commerce websites offer users such a huge amount of products, which far from facilitating the buying process, actually make it more difficult. Hence, recommenders, which learn from users' preferences, are consolidating as valuable instruments to enhance the buying process in the 2D on several usability criteria such as learnability, perceived efficiency and effectiveness. Results d...

The interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS) which is an extension of the Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy set is a powerful tool for modeling real life decision making problems. In this paper, we propose the emph{generalized interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy Hamacher generalized Shapley Choquet integral} (GIVIFHGSCI) and the emph{interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy Hamacher general...

‎For any archimedean$f$-ring $A$ with unit in whichbreak$awedge‎ ‎(1-a)leq 0$ for all $ain A$‎, ‎the following are shown to be‎ ‎equivalent‎: ‎ ‎1‎. ‎$A$ is isomorphic to the $l$-ring ${mathfrak Z}L$ of all‎ ‎integer-valued continuous functions on some frame $L$‎. 2‎. ‎$A$ is a homomorphic image of the $l$-ring $C_{Bbb Z}(X)$‎ ‎of all integer-valued continuous functions‎, ‎in the usual se...

I analyze cash flow characteristics of listed infrastructure investment companies and funds and compare this unique infrastructure sample with a noninfrastructure reference group. I confirm that infrastructure investment provide more stable cash flows than non-infrastructure investments. However, I do not find that investors positively value this cash flow stability. Instead, more volatile cash...

We consider a positively expansive local homeomorphism T : X → X satisfying a weak specification property and study the Ruelle operator Lφ of a real-valued continuous function φ satisfying a property we call Bowen’s condition. We study convergence properties of the iterates Lφ and relate them to the theory of equilibrium states.
