Nanothermometry in Living Cells: Physical Limits, Conceptual and Material Challenges
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Heat and temperature are fundamental to life. When nanothermometers began probing regions as small as a living cell, they triggered controversial claims of large intracellular temperature gradients. We review physical constraints energy‐conservation, entropy production, thermodynamic fluctuations, and molecular dynamics.

Generalized Caristi's Fixed Point Theorems
Fixed Point Theory and Applications, 2009 We present generalized versions of Caristi's fixed point theorem for multivalued maps. Our results either improve or generalize the corresponding generalized Caristi's fixed point theorems due to Bae (2003), Suzuki (2005), Khamsi (2008), and others.

Fixed Point and Common Fixed Point Theorems on Ordered Cone b-Metric Spaces
Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2013 The concept of a cone b-metric space has been introduced recently as a generalization of a b-metric space and a cone metric space in 2011. The aim of this paper is to establish some fixed point and common fixed point theorems on ordered cone b-metric ...

Fixed point theorems for $\alpha$--contractive mappings of Meir--Keeler type and applications
, 2013 In this paper, we introduce the notion of $\alpha$--contractive mapping of Meir--Keeler type in complete metric spaces and prove new theorems which assure the existence, uniqueness and iterative approximation of the fixed point for this type of ...

Spin and Charge Control of Topological End States in Chiral Graphene Nanoribbons on a 2D Ferromagnet
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Chiral graphene nanoribbons on a ferromagnetic gadolinium‐gold surface alloy display tunable spin and charge states at their termini. Atomic work function variations and exchange fields enabe transitions between singlet, doublet, and triplet configurations.

New Results and Generalizations for Approximate Fixed Point Property and Their Applications
Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2014 We first introduce the concept of manageable functions and then prove some new existence theorems related to approximate fixed point property for manageable functions and α-admissible multivalued maps. As applications of our results, some new fixed point

Communications, Faculty Of Science, University of Ankara Series A1Mathematics and Statistics, 1988 Let \(f\) be an orbitally continuous self-mapping of a complete metric space \((X,d)\). In this note, a fixed point theorem is proved for the mapping \(f\) satisfying contractive conditions which are combinations of various distances between distinct points \(x\), \(y\), \(fx\), and \(fy\) from \(X\).

COUPLED FIXED POINT THEOREMS OF INTEGRAL TYPE MAPPINGS IN CONE METRIC SPACES [PDF]
, 2012 In this paper, we prove some coupled fixed point theorems in cone metric spaces. Furthermore, we introduce and prove the integral version of coupled fixed point theorems in cone metric spaces.

Central limit theorems for sequential and random intermittent dynamical systems
, 2016 We establish self-norming central limit theorems for non-stationary time series arising as observations on sequential maps possessing an indifferent fixed point. These transformations are obtained by perturbing the slope in the Pomeau-Manneville map.

Spin‐Split Edge States in Metal‐Supported Graphene Nanoislands Obtained by CVD
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Combining STM measurements and ab‐initio calculations, we show that zig‐zag edges in graphene nanoislands grown on Ni(111) by CVD retrieve their spin‐polarized edge states after intercalation of a few monolayers of Au. ABSTRACT Spin‐split states localized on zigzag edges have been predicted for different free‐standing graphene nanostructures.
