Iterates of a class of discrete linear operators via contraction principle

Octavian Agratini, Ioan A. Rus (2003)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this paper we are concerned with a general class of positive linear operators of discrete type. Based on the results of the weakly Picard operators theory our aim is to study the convergence of the iterates of the defined operators and some approximation properties of our class as well. Some special cases in connection with binomial type operators are also revealed.

Iterates of maps which are non-expansive in Hilbert's projective metric

Jeremy Gunawardena, Cormac Walsh (2003)

The cycle time of an operator on R n gives information about the long term behaviour of its iterates. We generalise this notion to operators on symmetric cones. We show that these cones, endowed with either Hilbert’s projective metric or Thompson’s metric, satisfy Busemann’s definition of a space of non- positive curvature. We then deduce that, on a strictly convex symmetric cone, the cycle time exists for all maps which are non-expansive in both these metrics. We also review an analogue for the Hilbert...
