Some Fixed-Point Results for a -Weak Contraction in -Metric Spaces

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2012
We introduce the concepts of a -weak contraction mapping of types and and we establish some fixed point theorems for a -weak contraction mapping of types and in complete -metric spaces. Our results generalize several well-known comparable results in

Cooper Instability in the Occupation Dependent Hopping Hamiltonians [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
A generic Hamiltonian, which incorporates the effect of the orbital contraction on the hopping amplitude between the nearest sites, is studied both analytically at the weak coupling limit and numerically at the intermediate and strong coupling regimes ...

Startpoints via weak contractions

open access: yes, 2018
Startpoints (resp. endpoints) can be defined as "oriented fixed points". They arise naturally in the study of fixed for multi-valued maps defined on quasi-metric spaces. In this article, we give a new result in the startpoint theory for quasi-pseudometric spaces. The result we present is obtained via a generalized weakly contractive set-valued map.

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

A new approach to multivalued nonlinear weakly Picard operators

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2019
The notion of nonlinear (Fs,L) $(\mathcal{F}_{s}, \mathcal{L})$-contractive multivalued operators is initiated and some related fixed point results are considered. We also give an example to show the validity of obtained theoretical results.

Analysis of JS-contractions with applications to fractional boundary value problems

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2023
In this article, we modify JS-contractions by weakening the conditions on the function θ, where θ : ( 0 , ∞ ) → ( 1 , ∞ ) $\theta : ( 0,\infty ) \rightarrow ( 1,\infty ) $ is a strictly increasing function.

A Picard-S Iterative Scheme for Approximating Fixed Point of Weak-Contraction Mappings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We study the convergence analysis of a Picard-S iteration method for a particular class of weak-contraction mappings. Furthermore, we prove a data dependence result for fixed point of the class of weak-contraction mappings with the help of the Picard-S ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Galileon bounce after ekpyrotic contraction

open access: yes, 2013
We consider a simple cosmological model that includes a long ekpyrotic contraction stage and smooth bounce after it. Ekpyrotic behavior is due to a scalar field with a negative exponential potential, whereas the Galileon field produces bounce. We give an

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...
