The notions of higher-order weakly generalized contingent epiderivative and higher-order weakly generalized adjacent epiderivative for set-valued maps are proposed. By virtue of the higher-order weakly generalized contingent adjacent epiderivatives, both necessary and sufficient optimality conditions are obtained for Henig efficient solutions to a set-valued optimization problem whose constrain...

As a generalization of countably C-approximating posets, the concept of countably QC-approximating posets is introduced. With the countably QC-approximating property, some characterizations of generalized completely distributive lattices and generalized countably approximating posets are given. The main results are as follows: (1) a complete lattice is generalized completely distributive if and...

In 2008, Al-Thaga and Shahzad [Generalized I-nonexpansive self-maps and invariant approximations, Acta Math. Sinica 24(5) (2008), 867{876]introduced the notion of occasionally weakly compatible mappings (shortly owcmaps) which is more general than all the commutativity concepts. In the presentpaper, we prove common xed point theorems for families of owc maps in Mengerspaces. As applications to ...

Abstract We study the semi-classical limits of the first eigenfunction of a positive second order operator on a compact Riemannian manifold, when the diffusion constant goes to zero. If the drift of the diffusion is given by a Morse-Smale vector field b, the limits of the eigenfunctions concentrate on the recurrent set of b. A blow-up analysis enables us to find the main properties of the limit...

Suppose M is a topological m-manifold, X is a generalized nmanifold satisfying the disjoint disks property (DDP ), m > n ≥ 5, f : M → X is an approximate fibration, with fiber the shape of a closed topological manifold F , and Y is a closed, 1-LCC, codimension three subset of X. We examine conditions under which f is controlled homeomorphic to an approximate fibration g : M → X such that g|g−1(...

The concept of generalized functions taking values in a differentiable manifold ([15, 19]) is extended to a functorial theory. We establish several characterization results which allow a global intrinsic formulation both of the theory of manifold-valued generalized functions and of generalized vector bundle homomorphisms. As a consequence, a characterization of equivalence that does not resort ...

We construct examples of nonresolvable generalized «-manifolds, n > 6 , with arbitrary resolution obstruction, homotopy equivalent to any simply connected, closed «-manifold. We further investigate the structure of generalized manifolds and present a program for understanding their topology. By a generalized n-manifold we will mean a finite-dimensional absolute neighborhood retract X such that ...
