Some fixed points theorems for multi-valued weakly uniform increasing operators (Q2389050)

The authors use the following definitions of relations on spaces endowed with a partial order \(\leq\) on a set \(X\) (which are due to Y.~Feng and S.~Liu). Let \(A, B\) be two nonempty subsets of \(X\), then: (1) if \(\forall a \in A\) \(\exists b \in B\) such that \(a \leq b\), then \(A \prec_1 B\); (2) if \(\forall b \in B\) \(\exists a \in A\) such that \(a \leq b\), then \(A \prec_2 B\); (3) if \(A \prec_1 B\) and \(A \prec_2 B\), then \(A \prec B\). A pair \((S, T)\) of maps \(S, T: X \rightarrow 2^{X}\) is said to be weakly uniform increasing with respect to \(\prec_1\) if, for any \(x\in X\), we have \(S x \prec_1 S y\), \(S x \prec_1 S z\) \(\forall y\in S x\), \(z\in T x\), and \(T x \prec_1 T y\), \(T x \prec_1 T z\) \(\forall y\in T x\), \(z\in S x\). A pair \((S, T)\) of maps \(S, T: X \rightarrow 2^{X}\) is said to be weakly uniform increasing with respect to \(\prec_2\) if, for any \(x\in X\), we have \(S y \prec_2 S x\), \(S z \prec_2 S x\) \(\forall y\in S x\), \(z\in T x\), and \(T y \prec_2 T x\), \(T z \prec_2 T x\) \(\forall y\in T x\), \(z\in S x\). Some fixed point theorems for multi-valued operators satisfying such properties in metric and Banach spaces are proved.
