Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The techniques in functional analysis have widespread applications in the modeling of numerous natural phenomena. As such, these techniques and tools are multidisciplinary in nature and indispensable in the study of natural sciences. Fixed-point theory, fractional calculus, partial differential equations, integral equations, wavelet analysis, and approximation theory are some spearhead topics that heavily employ the tools of nonlinear functional analysis. The increased complexity in physical phenomena and engineering experiments continually seeks the advancement of these analytic tools.

This Special Issue provides a unified framework for the study of several problems arising from the modeling of diverse processes in natural sciences. This Special Issue will collect new research findings of the highest quality with novelty and illustrative examples with a sustainable impact on the existing literature that use nonlinear functional analytical tools.

Potential Topics to be Covered: Real and complex functions; functional analysis; fixed points; nonlinear operator theory; variational inequalities; numerical analysis and algorithms; functional equations and stability; partial differential equations; integral equations; calculus of variation; wavelet analysis; fractional calculus; fluid mechanics; and analytic number theory.

This paper aims to present two inertial iterative algorithms for estimating the solution of split variational inclusion (SpVIsP) and its extended version for estimating the common solution of (SpVIsP) and fixed point problem (FPP) of a nonexpansive mapping in the setting of real Hilbert spaces. We establish the weak convergence of the proposed algorithms and strong convergence of the extended version without using the pre-estimated norm of a bounded linear operator. We also exhibit the reliability and behavior of the proposed algorithms using appropriate assumptions in a numerical example. Full article

In this paper, we introduce the concept of orthogonal convex structure contraction mapping and prove some fixed point theorems on orthogonal ♭-metric spaces. We adopt an example to highlight the utility of our main result. Finally, we apply our result to examine the existence and uniqueness of the solution for the spring-mass system via an integral equation with a numerical example. Full article

The principal objective of this paper is to find the solution to a constrained minimization problem and the zero of the monotone operator in geodesic spaces. The basic tool in our study is a nonexpansive mapping. Further, we employ the general Picard–Mann iterative method to approximate fixed points of nonexpansive mappings under various conditions. We obtain certain theorems concerning Δ and strong convergence. Full article
