Fixed Point and Best Proximity Theorems under Two Classes of Integral-Type Contractive Conditions in Uniform Metric Spaces
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010)
This paper investigates the existence of fixed points and best proximity points of p-cyclic self-maps on a set of subsets of a certain uniform space under integral-type contractive conditions. The parallel properties of ...
On a Generalized Time-Varying SEIR Epidemic Model with Mixed Point and Distributed Time-Varying Delays and Combined Regular and Impulsive Vaccination Controls
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010)
This paper discusses a generalized time-varying SEIR propagation disease model subject to delays which potentially involves mixed regular and impulsive vaccination rules. The model takes also into account the natural ...
Stable Iteration Procedures in Metric Spaces which Generalize a Picard-Type Iteration
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010)
This paper investigates the stability of iteration procedures defined by continuous functions acting on self-maps in continuous metric spaces. Some of the obtained results extend the contraction principle to the use of ...
Some Fixed Point Properties of Self-Maps Constructed by Switched Sets of Primary Self-Maps on Normed Linear Spaces
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010)
This paper is devoted to the investigation of the existence of fixed points in a normed linear space X endowed with a norm ‖⋅‖ for self-maps f from T×X to X which are constructed from a given class of so-called primary ...
Linking Contractive Self-Mappings and Cyclic Meir-Keeler Contractions with Kannan Self-Mappings
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010)
Some mutual relations between p-cyclic contractive self-mappings, p-cyclic Kannan self-mappings, and Meir-Keeler p-cyclic contractions are stated. On the other hand, related results about the existence of the best proximity ...
Noisy-threshold control of cell death
(BioMed Central, 2010)
Background
Cellular responses to death-promoting stimuli typically proceed through a differentiated multistage process, involving a lag phase, extensive death, and potential adaptation. Deregulation of this chain of events ...
