Norm Attaining Arens Extensions on ℓ1 by Javier Falcó, Domingo García, Manuel Maestre, Pilar Rueda

“…We study norm attaining properties of the Arens extensions of multilinear forms defined on Banach spaces. Among other related results, we construct a multilinear form on ℓ1 with the property that only some fixed Arens extensions determined a priori attain their norms. …”

The Split Common Fixed Point Problem for Total Asymptotically Strictly Pseudocontractive Mappings by S. S. Chang, L. Wang, Y. K. Tang, L. Yang

“…The purpose of this paper is to propose an algorithm for solving the split common fixed point problems for total asymptotically strictly pseudocontractive mappings in infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. The results presented in the paper improve and extend some recent results of Moudafi (2011 and 2010), Xu (2010 and 2006), Censor and Segal (2009), Censor et al. (2005), Masad and Reich (2007), Censor et al. (2007), Yang (2004), and others.…”

Existence of Best Proximity Point with an Application to Nonlinear Integral Equations by Shagun Sharma, Sumit Chandok

“…Using the idea of modified ϱ-proximal admissible mappings, we derive some new best proximity point results for ϱ−ϑ-contraction mappings in metric spaces. We also provide some illustrations to back up our work. …”

Matrix Transformations and Quasi-Newton Methods by Boubakeur Benahmed, Bruno de Malafosse, Adnan Yassine

“…We first recall some properties of infinite tridiagonal matrices considered as matrix transformations in sequence spaces of the forms sξ, sξ∘, sξ(c), or lp(ξ). Then, we give some results on the finite section method for approximating a solution of an infinite linear system. …”

Degenerate Differential Operators with Parameters by Veli B. Shakhmurov

“…Several conditions for the maximal regularity uniformly with respect to the parameter and the Fredholmness in Banach-valued Lp− spaces of these problems are given. In applications, the nonlocal boundary value problems for degenerate elliptic partial differential equations and for systems of elliptic equations with parameters on cylindrical domain are studied.…”

Stability of Admissible Functions by Rabha W. Ibrahim

“…By using the concept of the weak subordination, we examine the stability (a class of analytic functions in the unit disk is said to be stable if it is closed under weak subordination) for a class of admissible functions in complex Banach spaces. The stability of analytic functions in the following classes is discussed: Bloch class, little Bloch class, hyperbolic little Bloch class, extend Bloch class (Qp), and Hilbert Hardy class (H2).…”

D’une rive, l’autre by Brigitte Baptandier

“…Through the cult of the Lady of Linshui, Linshui furen, and the Daoist ritual tradition of the Lüshan pai, strongly tinged with Tantrism, we skirt along the boundaries between those different sociological, imaginary and symbolic spaces. A prolonged navigation (1980-2016), a point in China’s time.…”

Le galérien, le révolté et le yuppie : trois trajectoires d’immigrés égyptiens à Abu Dhabi by Lucile Gruntz

“…Yet, migrants are not straightforward agents of social change: their experiences are historically framed; they put up with discriminatory administrative rules; migration brands minds and bodies, as well as the spaces where migrants live or which they cross. The article deals with this complexity through a compared analysis of three cases of male Egyptian immigrants in Abu Dhabi.…”

NONLINEAR PERTURBATIONS OF POLYHEDRAL NORMAL CONE MAPPINGS AND AFFINE VARIATIONAL INEQUALITIES by Nguyễn Thành Quí

“…This paper establishes an upper estimate for the Frechet normal cone to the graph of the nonlinearly perturbed polyhedral normal cone mappings in finite dimensional spaces. Under a positive linear independence assumption on the normal vectors of the active constraints at the point in question, the result leads to an upper estimate for values of the Mordukhovich coderivative of such mappings. …”

Asymptotic modeling of viscoelastic thin plates and slender beams, a unifying approach by Terapabkajornded, Yotsawat, Orankitjaroen, Somsak, Licht, Christian, Weller, Thibaut

“…A dimension reduction problem is tackled using Trotter’s theory of convergence of semi-groups of operators acting on variable spaces [1, 2]. We show that this framework makes it possible to perform the asymptotic analysis for both viscoelastic thin plates and slender beams in a unifying manner. …”

A Study of Millisecond Blasting on High Bench at Barun Iron Ore Operation by Pengfei Zhang, Runcai Bai, Xue Sun, Haoran Li, Honglu Fei, Shijie Bao

“…To improve the productivity and efficient of modern large-scale open-cut mines, a number of technologies are developed and trialed, including new blasting equipment, larger blasting holes, high benches, air spacing, and short-delay blasting within holes. However, the relative blasting parameters need field calibration and further investigation of theories on these techniques are required. …”
