In this paper we analyze the convergence of a family of robust Kalman filters. For each filter of this family the model uncertainty is tuned according to the so called tolerance parameter. Assuming that the corresponding state-space model is reachable and observable, we show that the corresponding Riccati-like mapping is strictly contractive provided that the tolerance is sufficiently small, ac...

2 Department of Applied Mathematics, Chhatrapati Shivaji Institute of Technology, Durg (C.G.), (India) ABSTRACT Image compression is a process of reducing or eliminating all redundant or irrelevant data. The new compression technique called Fractal image compression. This scheme works by partitioning an image into blocks and using contractive mapping to map each range blocks to its matched doma...

The well-known Banach’s fixed point theorem asserts that ifD X, f is contractive and X, d is complete, then f has a unique fixed point inX. It is well known that the Banach contraction principle 1 is a very useful and classical tool in nonlinear analysis. In 1969, Boyd and Wong 2 introduced the notion ofΦ-contraction. A mapping f : X → X on a metric space is called Φ-contraction if there exists...

In this paper, we prove a general form of a fixed point theorem with contractive-like mapping defined by altering function. We also present its application on study of existence and uniqueness of solution of fuzzy initial value problems in fuzzy partial metric spaces. In order to do this, we recall some fixed point theorems in partial metric spaces either crisp or fuzzy and use these theorems t...

in this paper is introduced a new type of generalization of metric spaces called sb metric space. for this new kind of spaces it has been proved a common xed point theorem for four mappings which satisfy generalized contractive condition. we also present example to con rm our theorem.

Introduction: Orlicz and Birnbaum considered spaces of functions with growth properties different from the power type growth control, provided by the p L -norm. This generalization found many applications in differential and integral equations with kernels of non-power types. A more abstract approach was given by Nakano in connection with the theory of order spaces. His point of view was genera...

The aim of this paper is to prove coupled coincidence and coupled common fixed point theorems for a mixed g-monotone mapping satisfying nonlinear contractive conditions in the setting of partially ordered G-metric spaces. Present theorems are true generalizations of the recent results of Choudhury and Maity [Math Comput. Modelling 54 (2011), 73–79], and Luong and Thuan [Math. Comput. Modelling ...

Given a JBW*-triple Z and a normal contractive projection P : Z −→ Z, we show that the (Murray-von Neumann) type of each summand of P (Z) is dominated by the type of Z.

Suppose X = Lp (or Ip), p > 2, and K is a nonempty closed convex bounded subset of X. Suppose T: K —* K is a Lipschitzian strictly pseudo-contractive mapping of K into itself. Let {Cn}^_0 be a real sequence satisfying: (i) 0 < C„ < 1 for all n > 1, (") Z)rT=l Cn = °°> and Then the iteration process, zn G K, Zn+l = (1 — Cn)xn + CnTXn for n > 1, converges strongly to a fixed point of T in K.
