We apply the optimization procedure based on the Principle of Minimal Sensitivity to the third-order calculation of Rτ . Since the effective couplant remains finite, freezing to a value αs/π = 0.26 at low energies, we can actually evaluate the defining integral of Rτ and compare the optimized perturbation theory result to that of the optimized result obtained after the integral has been evaluat...

We establish the following fixed point theorem. Let P be a non-empty polytope in the n-dimensional Euclidean space and let f be a function from P to P satisfying that for every x in P for which f(x) 6= x there exists a neighborhood of x in P such that for any y and z in this neighborhood the inner product of f(y)− y and f(z)− z is non-negative. Then there exists x∗ ∈ P satisfying f(x∗) = x∗, i....

In the appendix to the book by F. F. Bonsal, Lectures on Some Fixed Point Theorems of Functional Analysis (Tata Institute, Bombay, 1962) a proof by Singbal of the SchauderTychonoff fixed point theorem, based on a locally convex variant of Schauder mapping method, is included. The aim of this note is to show that this method can be adapted to yield a proof of Kakutani fixed point theorem in the ...

We analyze the possibility of nonperturbative renormalizability of gauge theories in D.4 dimensions. We develop a scenario, based on Weinberg’s idea of asymptotic safety, that allows for renormalizability in extra dimensions owing to a non-Gaussian ultraviolet stable fixed point. Our scenario predicts a critical dimension Dcr beyond which the UV fixed point vanishes, such that renormalizability...

We show that the existence of rational points on smooth varieties over a field can be detected using homotopy fixed points of étale topological types under the Galois action. As our main example we show that the surjectivity statement in Grothendieck’s Section Conjecture would follow from the surjectivity of the map from fixed points to continuous homotopy fixed points on the level of connected...

In this survey we present some recent applications of proof mining to the fixed point theory of (asymptotically) nonexpansive mappings and to the metastability (in the sense of Terence Tao) of ergodic averages in uniformly convex Banach spaces.

We show that classically scale invariant gravity coupled to a single scalar field can undergo dimensional transmutation and generate an effective Einstein-Hilbert action for gravity, coupled to a massive dilaton. The same theory has an ultraviolet fixed point for coupling constant ratios such that all couplings are asymptotically free. However the catchment basin of this fixed point does not in...

In this paper, the existence of fuzzy solutions for first and second order nonlocal impulsive neutral functional differential equations are studied using Banach fixed point theorem. We used the techniques of fuzzy set theory, functional analysis, and Hausdorff metric. Example is provide to illustrate the theory.

We consider relations with no order on their attributes as in Database Theory. An independent partition of the set of attributes S of a finite relation R is any partition X of S such that the join of the projections of R over the elements of X yields R. Identifying independent partitions has many applications and corresponds conceptually to revealing orthogonality between sets of dimensions in ...
