Admissible perturbations of a multivalued Picard operator: Ćirić contraction condition; fixed point and stability results
Cristina Gheorghe
TL;DR
The paper addresses strict fixed-point existence and stability for multivalued Picard operators that do not satisfy a Ćirić contraction, by identifying admissible perturbations $T_G$ (via $T_G(x)=G(x,T(x))$) that restore contraction properties under Takahashi-type conditions. It develops data-dependence, Ulam-Hyers stability, well-posedness, Ostrowski stability, and quasi-contraction results for the perturbed setting, all within a unified framework and with explicit constants. The results are reformulated for Takahashi admissible perturbations using convex-metric spaces $(X,d,W)$ and the perturbation $T_W(x)=\{W(x,y,\lambda):y\in T(x)\}$, including a concrete example with the Takahashi convexity operator. Collectively, these findings provide rigorous criteria under which strict fixed points persist, iterations converge, and stability properties hold for a broad class of multivalued operators.
Abstract
This paper studies strict fixed point and stability results for multivalued operators which does not satisfy a Ćirić type contraction condition, but their admissible perturbation does. We focus on the conditions imposed on the admissible perturbation $T_G$ of a Picard operator $T:X\rightarrow P(X)$ such that the strict fixed point and stability results still hold for T. The results obtained are reformulated in terms of admissible perturbations in the sense of Takahashi and illustrated with some examples.
