In this paper, we introduce a new concept of (α, φ)g-contractive type mappings and establish coupled coincidence and coupled common fixed point theorems for such mappings in partially ordered G-metric spaces. The results on fixed point theorems are generalizations of some existing results.We also give some examples to illustrate the usability of the obtained results.

The existence of minimal and maximal fixed points for monotone operators defined on probabilistic Banach spaces is proved. We obtained sufficient conditions for the existence of coupled fixed point for mixed monotone condensing multivalued operators.

A couple ($\sigma ,\tau$) of lower and upper slopes for the resonant second order boundary value problem $$x^{\text{'}\text{'}}=f(t,x,x^{\text{'}}),x\left(0\right)=0,x^{\text{'}}\left(1\right)={\int }_0^1{x}^{\text{'}}\left(s\right)\mathrm{d}g\left(s\right),$$ with $g$ increasing on $[0,1]$ such that ${\int }_0^{1}dg=1$, is a couple of functions $\sigma ,\tau \in C^1\left([0,1]\right)$ such that $\sigma \left(t\right)\le \tau \left(t\right)$ for all $t\in [0,1]$, $$\begin{array}{c}{\sigma }^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)\ge f(t,x,\sigma \left(t\right)),\sigma \left(1\right)\le {\int }_0^1\sigma \left(s\right)\mathrm{d}g\left(s\right),\\ {\tau }^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)\le f(t,x,\tau \left(t\right)),\tau \left(1\right)\ge {\int }_0^1\tau \left(s\right)\mathrm{d}g\left(s\right),\end{array}$$ in the stripe ${\int }_0^t\sigma \left(s\right)\mathrm{d}s\le x\le {\int }_0^t\tau \left(s\right)\mathrm{d}s$ and $t\in [0,1]$. It is proved that the existence of such a couple $(\sigma ,\tau )$ implies the existence and localization of a solution to the boundary value problem. Multiplicity results are also obtained.

In this paper we shall establish a result concerning the covering dimension of a set of the type $\{x\in X:\Phi (x)\cap \Psi (x)\ne \varnothing \}$, where $\Phi$, $\Psi$ are two multifunctions from $X$ into $Y$ and $X$, $Y$ are real Banach spaces. Moreover, some applications to the differential inclusions will be given.

Criteria are given for determining the weak compactness, or otherwise, of the integration map associated with a vector measure. For instance, the space of integrable functions of a weakly compact integration map is necessarily normable for the mean convergence topology. Results are presented which relate weak compactness of the integration map with the property of being a bicontinuous isomorphism onto its range. Finally, a detailed description is given of the compactness properties for the integration...

We investigate the criticality of the one term $2n$-order difference operators $l{\left(y\right)}_k={\Delta }^n\left(r_k{\Delta }^n{y}_k\right)$. We explicitly determine the recessive and the dominant system of solutions of the equation $l{\left(y\right)}_k=0$. Using their structure we prove a criticality criterion.
