Periodic solutions for quasilinear vector differential equations with maximal monotone terms

Nikolaos C. Kourogenis, Nikolaos S. Papageorgiou (1997)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

Similarity:

We consider a quasilinear vector differential equation with maximal monotone term and periodic boundary conditions. Approximating the maximal monotone operator with its Yosida approximation, we introduce an auxiliary problem which we solve using techniques from the theory of nonlinear monotone operators and the Leray-Schauder principle. To obtain a solution of the original problem we pass to the limit as the parameter λ > 0 of the Yosida approximation tends to zero.

Monotone normality and extension of functions

Ian Stares (1995)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We provide a characterisation of monotone normality with an analogue of the Tietze-Urysohn theorem for monotonically normal spaces as well as answer a question due to San-ou concerning the extension of Urysohn functions in monotonically normal spaces. We also extend a result of van Douwen, giving a characterisation of K 0 -spaces in terms of semi-continuous functions, as well as answer another question of San-ou concerning semi-continuous Urysohn functions.

A Cantor set in the plane that is not σ-monotone

Aleš Nekvinda, Ondřej Zindulka (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

A metric space (X,d) is monotone if there is a linear order < on X and a constant c such that d(x,y) ≤ cd(x,z) for all x < y < z in X, and σ-monotone if it is a countable union of monotone subspaces. A planar set homeomorphic to the Cantor set that is not σ-monotone is constructed and investigated. It follows that there is a metric on a Cantor set that is not σ-monotone. This answers a question raised by the second author.
