Download PDF file: (427kB)|
Abstract and keywords
Abstract. In this article we examine strictly convex metric space and strictly convex metric space
with convex round balls. These objects generalize well known concept of strictly convex Banach space. We prove fixed point theorems for nonexpansive,
quasi-nonexpansive and asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in strictly convex metric space with convex round balls.
These results extend previous result of R. de Marr, F.E. Browder, W.A. Kirk, K. Goebel, W.G. Dotson, T.C. Lim and some others.
Keywords. Strictly convex Banach space, nonexpansive mappings, quasi-nonexpansive mappings, asymptotically nonexpansive mappings,
strictly convex metric space, strictly convex metric space with convex round balls, normal structure, fixed point theorem.

Abstract and keywords
Abstract. We introduce the notion of normal fuzzy BCC-ideals, maximal
fuzzy BCC-ideal and completely normal fuzzy BCC-ideal in BCC-algebras. We investigate some properties of normal
(resp. maximal, completely normal) BCC-ideals. We show that for every non-constant normal fuzzy BCC-ideal which is
a maximal element of $(N(X), \subseteq)$ takes only the values 0 and 1, and every maximal fuzzy BCC-ideal is completely normal.

Abstract. In this note we consider the range as a range space of compact multipliers
of mixed norm sequence spaces $l^{p,q}$, $0 \leq p,q \leq \infty$. In contrast to the general case we show that a compact multiplier
always remain compact under reduction of the final space to the range space of multipliers.

the zeros of the polynomial
\[P(z)=z^n+a_1z^{n-1}+a_2z^{n-2}+ \cdots +a_{n-1}z+a_n,\qquad n \geq 3.\]

Abstract. This paper continues the study of the general convex functions.
In this paper we extension our the former objects of the function in contact and of the function in circled contact.

be real numbers such that fulfilling
\[x_{i}\geq \cdots \geq x_{n},\qquad y_{i}\geq \cdots \geq y_{n}.\]
Then, a necessary and sufficient condition in order that
\[\sum_{i=1}^{n} f(x_{i}) \geq 2\sum_{i=1}^{n} f(y_{i})-n \max\Bigl\{f(a), f(b), g\bigl(f(a), f(b)\bigr)\Bigr\}\]
holds for every general convex function $f: J\to \mathbf{R}$ which is in contact with function $g: f^2(J) \to \mathbf{R}$ and for arbitrary
$a,b \in J$, ($a \leq x_{i}\leq b$ for $i=1,\dots,n$), is that

Abstract and keywords
Abstract. In this paper we continue the study of the general J-convex functions,
which are introduced in our former paper (Tasković, Math. Japonica, 37 (1992), 367-372).
We prove that if $D \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ a convex and open set, and if $f: D \to \mathbb{R}$ is a general J-inner function
with the property of local oscillation in $D$, then it is continuous in $D$.
Since every J-convex function (also an additive function) is general J-inner function, we obtain as a particular case of
the preceding statement the result of F. Bernstein and G. Doetsch.

Abstract. In the present paper is proved the following proposition.
Let $(Q,A)$ be an $n$-group, $^{-1}$ its inversing operation, $n \geq 2$ and $Q$ is equipped with a topology $\mathcal{O}$. Also let
\[^{-1}A(x,a_{1}^{n-2},y)=z\quad \overset{def}{\iff}\quad A(z,a_{1}^{n-2},y)=x,\]

for all $x,y,z \in Q$ and for every sequence $a_{1}^{n-2}$ over $Q$. Then the following statements are equivalent:
(i) the $n$-ary operation $A$ is continuous in $\mathcal{O}$ and the $(n-1)$-ary operation $^{-1}$ is continuous in $\mathcal{O}$;
(ii) the $n$-ary operation $^{-1}A$ is continuous in $\mathcal{O}$; and

Abstract and keywords
Abstract. Let $n \geq 2$, Let $(Q,A)$ be an $n$-group, $e$ its $\{1,n\}$-neutral operation
[:[6], 1.3], and $^{-1}$ its inversing operation [:[7], 1.3]. Let also $Z$ be an set of all integers.
Then, in this paper, we say that $a^{m}$, $(m \in Z)$, is an $m$-th power of the element $a$ in $(Q,A)$ iff: (1) $a^{1}\overset{def}{=}a$;
(2) $a^{k+1}\overset{def}{=}A(a^{k},\overset{n-2}{a},a)$, $k\geq 1$; (3) $a^{0}\overset{def}{=}e(\overset{n-2}{a})$, and
(4) $a^{-k}\overset{def}{=}(\overset{n-2}{a},a^{k})^{-1}$, $k\geq 1$ [:2.3]. Furthermore, for all $a \in Q$ and for all
$s \in Z$ the following equality holds: $a^{\langle s\rangle}=a^{s+1}$, where $a^{\langle s\rangle}$
well-known is the $s$-th $n$-adic power of the element $a$ in $(Q,A)$ [:2.5]; $\langle s\rangle =s(n-1)+1$.
Among others, in the paper is proved the following proposition. For every $\alpha, \alpha_{1}, \dots, \alpha_{n}\in Z$, $(n \geq 3)$,
the following equalities hold:
\[e(a^{\alpha_1}, \dots, a^{\alpha_{n-2}})=a^{-\sum_{i=1}^{n-2}\alpha_{i}+n-2},\]
\[(a^{\alpha_1}, \dots, a^{\alpha_{n-2}}, a^{\alpha})^{-1}=a^{-\alpha-2(\sum_{i=1}^{n-2}\alpha_i-n+2)},\]
\[A(a^{\alpha_1}, \dots, a^{\alpha_n})=a^{\sum_{i=1}^{n}\alpha_i-n+2}\text{ [:2.7,2.8,footnote 4)]}.\]
