Let $(\Omega ,\Sigma )$ be a measurable space and $C$ a nonempty bounded closed convex separable subset of $p$-uniformly convex Banach space $E$ for some $p>1$. We prove random fixed point theorems for a class of mappings $T\Omega \times C\to C$ satisfying: for each $x,y\in C$, $\omega \in \Omega$ and integer $n\ge 1$, $$\parallel T^n(\omega ,x)-T^n(\omega ,y)\parallel \le a\left(\omega \right)·\parallel x-y\parallel +b\left(\omega \right)\{\parallel x-T^n(\omega ,x)\parallel +\parallel y-T^n(\omega ,y)\parallel \}+c\left(\omega \right)\{\parallel x-T^n(\omega ,y)\parallel +\parallel y-T^n(\omega ,x)\parallel \},$$ where $a,b,c\Omega \to [0,\infty )$ are functions satisfying certain conditions and $T^n(\omega ,x)$ is the value at $x$ of the $n$-th iterate of the mapping $T(\omega ,·)$. Further we establish for these mappings some random fixed point theorems in a Hilbert space, in $L^p$ spaces, in Hardy spaces $H^p$ and in Sobolev spaces $H^{k,p}$...

Let (Ω, σ) be a measurable space and K a nonempty bounded closed convex separable subset of a p-uniformly convex Banach space E for p > 1. We prove a random fixed point theorem for a class of mappings T:Ω×K ∪ K satisfying the condition: For each x, y ∈ K, ω ∈ Ω and integer n ≥ 1, ⃦Tⁿ(ω,x) - Tⁿ(ω,y) ⃦ ≤ aₙ(ω)· ⃦x - y ⃦ + bₙ(ω) ⃦x -Tⁿ(ω,x) ⃦ + ⃦y - Tⁿ(ω,y) ⃦ + cₙ(ω) ⃦x - Tⁿ(ω,y) ⃦ + ⃦y - Tⁿ(ω,x) ⃦, where aₙ, bₙ, cₙ: Ω → [0, ∞) are functions satisfying certain conditions and Tⁿ(ω,x) is the value...

A Banach space X is reflexive if and only if every bounded sequence xₙ in X contains a norm attaining subsequence. This means that it contains a subsequence $x_{n_k}$ for which $su{p}_{f\in S_{X*}}limsu{p}_{k\to \infty }f\left(x_{n_k}\right)$ is attained at some f in the dual unit sphere $S_{X*}$. A Banach space X is not reflexive if and only if it contains a normalized sequence xₙ with the property that for every $f\in S_{X*}$, there exists $g\in S_{X*}$ such that $limsu{p}_{n\to \infty }f\left(xₙ\right)<limin{f}_{n\to \infty }g\left(xₙ\right)$. Combining this with a result of Shafrir, we conclude that every infinite-dimensional Banach space contains an unbounded closed convex...

Let $C$ be a nonempty closed convex subset of a Banach space $E$ and $T:C\to C$ a $k$-Lipschitzian rotative mapping, i.eṡuch that $\parallel Tx-Ty\parallel \le k·\parallel x-y\parallel$ and $\parallel T^{n}x-x\parallel \le a·\parallel x-Tx\parallel$ for some real $k$, $a$ and an integer $n>a$. The paper concerns the existence of a fixed point of $T$ in $p$-uniformly convex Banach spaces, depending on $k$, $a$ and $n=2,3$.

The aim of this paper is to derive some relationships between the concepts of the property of strong $\left({\alpha }^{\text{'}}\right)$ introduced recently by Hong-Kun Xu and the so-called characteristic of near convexity defined by Goebel and Sȩkowski. Particularly we provide very simple proof of a result obtained by Hong-Kun Xu.

In this paper we give estimations of Istratescu measure of noncompactness I(X) of a set X C lp(E1,...,En) in terms of measures I(Xj) (j=1,...,n) of projections Xj of X on Ej. Also a converse problem of finding a set X for which the measure I(X) satisfies the estimations under consideration is considered.

The aim of this paper is to show that for every Banach space (X, || · ||) containing asymptotically isometric copy of the space c0 there is a bounded, closed and convex set C ⊂ X with the Chebyshev radius r(C) = 1 such that for every k ≥ 1 there exists a k-contractive mapping T : C → C with [...] for any x ∊ C.
