Strict Stability Of Fixed Points And Iteration Schemes, Kittisak Tontan Jan 2020

Strict Stability Of Fixed Points And Iteration Schemes, Kittisak Tontan

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

In this thesis, we introduce the concept of a strictly stable fixed point of a selfmap and investigate the relationship among various types of fixed point stability. We prove that all fixed point of a quasi-nonexpansive map is strictly stable and extend the concept of a strictly stable fixed point of a selfmap to an iteration scheme. We introduce the concept of convexly strictly stable fixed points of selfmaps and apply it to obtain virtual stability of some well-known iteration schemes in a convex subset of a Banach space.

Generalized Factorizability Of Certain Implicit Dependence Copulas, Peerapong Panyasakulwong Jan 2020

Generalized Factorizability Of Certain Implicit Dependence Copulas, Peerapong Panyasakulwong

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

The copula CX,Y of random variables X and Y that are uniformly distributed on [0,1] is called an implicit dependence copula if f(X)=g(Y) almost surely for some Borel functions f and g on [0,1]. Via a generalized Markov product, we give a one-to-one correspondence between the implicit dependence copulas and the parametric classes of subcopulas on a corresponding domain for the cases that f=g=Λθ, the tent function whose top is at (θ,1). We also show in the case f=g=α, a simple measure-preserving function, that implicit dependence copulas are generalized factorizable.
