Fixed Point Theory for Digital k-Surfaces and Some Remarks on the Euler Characteristics of Digital Closed Surfaces

The present paper studies the fixed point property (FPP) for closed k-surfaces. We also intensively study Euler characteristics of a closed k-surface and a connected sum of closed k-surfaces. Furthermore, we explore some relationships between the FPP and Euler characteristics of closed k-surfaces. After explaining how to define the Euler characteristic of a closed k-surface more precisely, we confirm a certain consistency of the Euler characteristic of a closed k-surface and a continuous analog of it. In proceeding with this work, for a simple closed k-surface in Z 3 , say S k , we can see that both the minimal 26-adjacency neighborhood of a point x ∈ S k , denoted by M k ( x ) , and the geometric realization of it in R 3 , denoted by D k ( x ) , play important roles in both digital surface theory and fixed point theory. Moreover, we prove that the simple closed 18-surfaces M S S 18 and M S S 18 ′ do not have the almost fixed point property (AFPP). Consequently, we conclude that the triviality or the non-triviality of the Euler characteristics of simple closed k-surfaces have no relationships with the FPP in digital topology. Using this fact, we correct many errors in many papers written by L. Boxer et al.

This note answers a question raised by Lee Mohler in 1970, by exhibiting a finite topological space X which is the union of closed subspaces Y, Z, such that Y, Z, and Y ⋂ Z, but not X, have the fixed point property. The example is a triangulation △ of S3, the points of X being the simplices of Δ and the closed sets the subcomplexes of △.

Weak Fixed Point Property

For every predual \(X\) of \(\ell_1\) such that the standard basis in \(\ell_1\) is weak\(^*\) convergent, we give explicit models of all Banach spaces \(Y\) for which the Banach-Mazur distance \(d(X,Y)=1\). As a by-product of our considerations, we obtain some new results in metric fixed point theory. First, we show that the space \(\ell_1\), with a predual \(X\) as above, has the stable weak\(^*\) fixed point property if and only if it has almost stable weak\(^*\) fixed point property, i.e. the dual \(Y^*\) of every Banach space \(Y\) has the weak\(^*\) fixed point property (briefly, \(\sigma(Y^*,Y)\)-FPP) whenever \(d(X,Y)=1\). Then, we construct a predual \(X\) of \(\ell_1\) for which \(\ell_1\) lacks the stable \(\sigma(\ell_1,X)\)-FPP but it has almost stable \(\sigma(\ell_1,X)\)-FPP, which in turn is a strictly stronger property than the \(\sigma(\ell_1,X)\)-FPP. Finally, in the general setting of preduals of \(\ell_1\), we give a sufficient condition for almost stable weak\(^*\) fixed point property in \(\ell_1\) and we prove that for a wide class of spaces this condition is also necessary.

Point Property

This paper deals with fixed point theory and fixed point property in minimal spaces. We will prove that under some conditions f : (X,M) → (X,M) has a fixed point if and only if for each m-open cover {Bα} for X there is at least one x ∈ X such that both x and f(x) belong to a common Bα. Further, it is shown that if (X,M) has the fixed point property, then its minimal retract subset enjoys this property.

Theoretic Foundations

Unlike the study of the fixed point property (FPP, for brevity) of retractable topological spaces, the research of the FPP of non-retractable topological spaces remains. The present paper deals with the issue. Based on order-theoretic foundations and fixed point theory for Khalimsky (K-, for short) topological spaces, the present paper studies the product property of the FPP for K-topological spaces. Furthermore, the paper investigates the FPP of various types of connected K-topological spaces such as non-K-retractable spaces and some points deleted K-topological (finite) planes, and so on. To be specific, after proving that not every one point deleted subspace of a finite K-topological plane X is a K-retract of X, we study the FPP of a non-retractable topological space Y, such as one point deleted space Y ∖ { p } .

Given a Khalimsky (for short, K-) topological space X, the present paper examines if there are some relationships between the contractibility of X and the existence of the fixed point property of X. Based on a K-homotopy for K-topological spaces, we firstly prove that a K-homeomorphism preserves a K-homotopy between two K-continuous maps. Thus, we obtain that a K-homeomorphism preserves K-contractibility. Besides, the present paper proves that every simple closed K-curve in the n-dimensional K-topological space, S C K n , l , n ≥ 2 , l ≥ 4 , is not K-contractible. This feature plays an important role in fixed point theory for K-topological spaces. In addition, given a K-topological space X, after developing the notion of K-contractibility relative to each singleton { x } ( ⊂ X ) , we firstly compare it with the concept of K-contractibility of X. Finally, we prove that the K-contractibility does not imply the K-contractibility relative to each singleton { x 0 } ( ⊂ X ) . Furthermore, we deal with certain conjectures involving the (almost) fixed point property in the categories KTC and KAC, where KTC (see Section 3) (resp. KAC (see Section 5)) denotes the category of K-topological (resp. KA-) spaces, KA-) spaces are subgraphs of the connectedness graphs of the K-topology on Z n .

A virus that causes hepatitis E is known as (HEV) and regarded on of the reason for lever inflammation. In mathematical aspects a very low attention has been paid to HEV dynamics. Therefore, the present work explores the HEV dynamics in fractional derivative. The Caputo–Fabriizo derivative is used to study the dynamics of HEV. First, the essential properties of the model will be presented and then describe the HEV model with CF derivative. Application of fixed point theory is used to obtain the existence and uniqueness results associated to the model. By using Adams–Bashfirth numerical scheme the solution is obtained. Some numerical results and tables for arbitrary order derivative are presented.
