$\beta$-greedoids343$-$350
Talal Al-Hawary

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the notion of $\beta$-greedoids and discuss four basic constructions of $\beta$-greedoids namely, deletion, contraction, direct sum and ordered sum. We show that the operations of deletion and contraction commute and the direct sum and ordered sum of $\beta$-greedoids $G_{1}$ and $G_{2}$ are interval $\beta$-greedoids if and only if $G_{1}$ and $G_{2}$ are both interval $\beta$-greedoids. We also give a necessary and sufficient condition for the direct sum and ordered sum of balanced $\beta$-greedoids to be balanced.

A remark on the property $\mathcal P$ and periodic points of order $\infty$357$-$363
Parin Chaipunya, Yeol Je Cho and Poom Kumam

Abstract

In this paper, we considered the relationship between periodic points, fixed points, and the property $\mathcal P$. We also presented an extended version of periodic points together with their behaviors in topological spaces and cone metric spaces.

$n$-normal and $n$-quasinormal composition and weighted composition operators on $L^{2}(\mu)$364$-$370
Anuradha Gupta and Neha Bhatia

Abstract

An operator $T$ is called $n$-normal operator if $T^nT^* = T^*T^n$ and $n$-quasinormal operator if $T^nT^*T = T^*TT^n$. In this paper, the conditions under which composition operators and weighted composition operators become $n$-normal operators and $n$-quasinormal operators have been obtained in terms of Radon-Nikodym derivative $h_n$.

Lightlike submanifolds of indefinite para-Sasakian manifolds371$-$386
S. S. Shukla and Akhilesh Yadav

Abstract

In this paper, we study invariant, slant and screen slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite para-Sasakian manifolds. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of slant and screen slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite para-Sasakian manifolds and also provide non-trivial examples of such submanifolds. We obtain integrability conditions of distributions $D$ and $RadTM$ on screen slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite para-Sasakian manifold. Further we obtain sufficient condition for induced connection on screen slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite para-Sasakian manifold to be metric connection.

Common fixed points of two multivalued nonexpansive maps by a one-step implicit algorithm in hyperbolic spaces397$-$409
S. H. Khan, H. Fukhar-ud-din and A. Kalsoom

Abstract

In this paper, we construct an implicit algorithm for two multivalued nonexpansive maps in a hyperbolic space and use it to approximate common fixed points of these maps through $\triangle$-convergence and strong convergence.

Results concerning symmetric generalized biderivations of prime and semiprime rings410$-$417
Asma Ali, V. De Filippis and Faiza Shujat

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to prove some results concerning symmetric biderivations and symmetric generalized biderivations on prime and semiprime rings which partially extend some results contained in Vukman, J., Symmetric biderivations on prime and semiprime rings, Aequationes Math. 38 (1989), 245--254 and Vukman, J., Two results concerning symmetric biderivations on prime rings, Aequationes Math. 40 (1990), 181--189.

Elliptic transmission problem in disjoint domains418$-$429
Zorica D. Milovanović

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate an elliptic transmission problem in disjoint domains. A priori estimate for its weak solution in appropriate Sobolev-like space is proved. A finite difference scheme approximating this problem is proposed and analyzed. An estimate of the convergence rate, compatible with the smoothness of the input data (up to a slowly increasing logarithmic factor of the mesh size), is obtained.
