9780128043653 English 0128043652 Fixed Point Theory and Graph Theory, Fixed Point Theory and Graph Theory provides an intersection between the theories of fixed point theorems that give the conditions under which maps (single or multivalued) have solutions and graph theory which uses mathematical structures to illustrate the relationship between ordered pairs of objects in terms of their vertices and directed edges. This edited reference work is perhaps the first to provide a link between the two theories, describing not only their foundational aspects, but also the most recent advances and the fascinating intersection of the domains. The authors provide solution methods for fixed points in different settings, with two chapters devoted to the solutions method for critically important non-linear problems in engineering, namely, variational inequalities, fixed point, split feasibility, and hierarchical variational inequality problems. The last two chapters are devoted to integrating fixed point theory in spaces with the graph and the use of retractions in the fixed point theory for ordered sets. Introduces both metric fixed point and graph theory in terms of their disparate foundations and common application environments Provides a unique integration of otherwise disparate domains that aids both students seeking to understand either area and researchers interested in establishing an integrated research approach Emphasizes solution methods for fixed points in non-linear problems such as variational inequalities, split feasibility, and hierarchical variational inequality problems that is particularly appropriate for engineering and core science applications, Fixed point theorems give the conditions under which maps (single or multivalued) have solutions. FPT is an integration of applied numerical analysis, topology and geometry. They are important because they help to integrate important phenomena in the study of nonlinear phenomena, and have been applied to problems in biology, chemistry, economics, engineering, game theory, and physics. Graph Theory, on the other hand, mathematically structures the relationship between ordered pairs of objects in terms of their vertices and directed edges. Graph theory has been deployed to map many relations and processes across physical, social and information systems, including computer science. Classically, fixed point theory and graph theory are considered as independent subdisciplines of mathematics, but they have mutual applications in different areas of science, engineering, management and social sciences, and important correlations can be discussed between the two. This edited reference work is perhaps the first to provide a link between the two theories, describing not only their foundational aspects but also the most recent advances, and the fascinating intersection of the domains. Caristi's fixed point theory is demonstrated in unusual detail. The authors provide solution methods for fixed points in different settings.
