Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We invite you to contribute a manuscript to this Special Issue on “New Advances in Mathematical Analysis and Functional Analysis”.

Mathematical analysis and functional analysis plays an important role in many research areas of pure and applied mathematics and is essential for the theory of partial differential equations, numerical analysis, probability theory, optimization theory, and theoretical physics. The impetus came from applications: problems related to ordinary and partial differential equations, numerical analysis, calculus of variations, approximation theory, integral equations, optimization theory, and so on.

The aim of this Special Issue is to gather and publish new results on mathematical analysis, functional analysis, and their applications. We welcome papers on topics including, but not limited to, the following:

  1. Functional analysis;
  2. Mathematical analysis;
  3. Optimization theory;
  4. Control theory;
  5. Variational analysis;
  6. Dynamical system;
  7. Fixed point theory and its application;
  8. Iterated function system;
  9. Fractal theory;
  10. Convex analysis;
  11. Numerical analysis.

The aim of the present research work is to investigate the solution of Urysohn integral equation by common fixed point result in the setting of complex valued b-metric space. To obtain the objective, we used a generalized rational contraction involving control functions and a pair of self-mappings. In this way, we generalize some well-known results of literature. Some non-trivial examples are also flourished to demonstrate the innovation of our principal result. Full article

In order to generalize classical Banach contraction principle in the setup of quasi-metric spaces, we introduce Suzuki-type contractions of quasi-metric spaces and prove some fixed point results. Further, we suggest a correction in the definition of another class of quasi-metrics known as Δ-symmetric quasi-metrics satisfying a weighted symmetry property. We discuss equivalence of various types of completeness of Δ-symmetric quasi-metric spaces. At the end, we consider the existence of fixed points of generalized Suzuki-type contractions of Δ-symmetric quasi-metric spaces. Some examples have been furnished to make sure that generalizations we obtain are the proper ones. Full article

An iterated function system consists of a complete metric space (X,d) and a finite family of contractions f1,,fn:XX. A generalized iterated function system comprises a finite family of contractions defined on the Cartesian product Xm with values in X. In this paper, we want to investigate generalized iterated function systems in the more general setting of b-metric spaces. We prove that such a system admits a unique attractor and, under some further restrictions on the b-metric, it depends continuously on parameters. We also provide two examples of generalized iterated function systems defined on a particular b-metric space and find the corresponding attractors. Full article

In this study, we have new fixed point results for weak contraction mappings in complete and partially ordered b-metric spaces. Our findings expand and generalize the results of Jachymski and Mituku et al and many more results in the literature as well. To illustrate our work, we present an application on the existence and uniqueness of a nonlinear quadratic integral problem solution. Moreover, an open problem is presented to enable the scope for future research in this area. Full article

In this article, we introduce the concept of a fuzzy triple controlled metric like space in the sense that the self distance may not be equal to one. We have used three functions in our space that generalize fuzzy controlled rectangular, extended fuzzy rectangular, fuzzy brectangular and fuzzy rectangular metric like spaces. Various examples are given to justify our definitions and results. As for the topological aspect, we prove a fuzzy triple controlled metric like space is not Hausdorff. We also apply our main result to solve the uniqueness of the solution of a fractional differential equation. Full article

There is a huge family of recurrent functions, which starts with equilibria and ends with Poisson stable functions. They are fundamental in theoretical and application senses, and they admit a famous history. Recently, we have added the unpredictable functions to the family. The research has been performed in several papers and books. Obviously, theoretical and application merits of functions increase if one provides rigorously approved efficient methods of construction of concrete examples, as well as their numerical simulations. In the present study, we met the challenges for unpredictability by considering functions of two variables on diagonals. Algorithms have been created, and they are both deterministic and random. Characteristics are introduced to evaluate contributions of periodic and unpredictable components to the dynamics, and they are clearly illustrated in graphs of the functions. Definitions of non-periodic compartmental functions are provided as suggestions for the research in the future. Full article

Our paper is devoted to describing a new way of generalized convex contraction of type-2 in the framework of b-metric spaces and 2-metric spaces. First, the concept of a new generalized convex contraction on b-metric spaces and 2-metric spaces is introduced, and fixed point theorem is extended to these spaces. Some examples supporting our main results are also presented. Finally, we apply our main result to approximating the solution of the Fredholm integral equation. Full article

The goal of this paper is to consider a differential equation system written as an interesting equivalent form that has not been used before. Using Perov’s fixed point theorem in generalized metric spaces, the existence and uniqueness of the solution are obtained for the proposed system. The approximation of the solution is given, and as a novelty, the approximation of its derivative is also obtained using the same iteration steps. Full article
