‎In this paper, based on [A. Razani, V. Rako$check{c}$evi$acute{c}$ and Z. Goodarzi, Nonself mappings in modular spaces and common fixed point theorems, Cent. Eur. J. Math. 2 (2010) 357-366.] a fixed point theorem for non-self contraction mapping $T$ in the modular space $X_rho$ is presented. Moreover, we study a new version of Krasnoseleskii's fixed point theorem for $S+T$, where $T$ is a cont...

In this paper, we have dened and studied a generalized form of topological vector spaces called s-topological vector spaces. s-topological vector spaces are dened by using semi-open sets and semi-continuity in the sense of Levine. Along with other results, it is proved that every s-topological vector space is generalized homogeneous space. Every open subspace of an s-topological vector space is...

BACKGROUND: Lovastatin is known to inhibit its own synthesis in the fungus Aspergillus terreus. Therefore, the use of a fermentation strategy that continuously removes some of the lovastatin produced from the bioreactor can enhance its productivity. This paper reports on the effects of dilution rate and the composition of the feed medium on lovastatin production by A. terreus. RESULTS: The feed...

Our main goal is to compute or estimate the calmness modulus of the argmin mapping of linear semi-infinite optimization problems under canonical perturbations, i.e., perturbations of the objective function together with continuous perturbations of the right-hand side of the constraint system (with respect to an index ranging in a compact Hausdorff space). Specifically, we provide a lower bound ...

this formula defines a Schwartz function, and hence the solution u = uf ∈ S also, and the mapping f 7→ uf is continuous in the sense that if fn is a sequence of Schwartz functions such that ‖fn − f‖α,β → 0 for every Schwartz semi-norm ‖ · ‖α,β , then also ‖un − u‖α,β → 0 for every Schwartz semi-norm, where un = ufn , u = uf . In fact the formula above extends to define a distributional solution...

To fabricate a virtual shape into the real world, the physical strength of the shape is an important consideration. We introduce a framework to consider both the strength and complexity of 3D frame structures. The key to the framework is a stress-oriented analysis and a semi-continuous condition in the shape representation that can both strengthen and simplify a structure at the same time. We f...

In this paper, we deal with the problem of a fixed number of units of a certain perishable commodity over a continuous time horizon. Airline seats, hotel rooms, advertising space in newspapers, and some seasonal products that must be sold before the end of the season are examples of such commodities that cannot be carried over and are not storable for consumers. This paper considers such a prob...

In this paper, characterizations of the degree to which a mapping $mathcal{T} : L^{X}longrightarrow M$ is an $(L, M)$-fuzzy topology are studied in detail.What is more, the degree to which an $L$-subset is an $L$-open set with respect to $mathcal{T}$ is introduced.Based on that, the degrees to which a mapping $f: Xlongrightarrow Y$ is continuous,open, closed or a quotient mapping with respect t...

*Correspondence: [email protected] School of Science, Sichuan University of Science and Engineering, Zigong, Sichuan 643000, China Abstract This paper introduces the notion of exceptional family of elements for generalized variational inequalities in Hilbert spaces. The set-valued mapping is assumed to be upper semi-continuous compact with nonempty closed convex values. Based on topological deg...
