Workshop on Iterative Aproximation of Fixed Points, Timisoara, Romania

in conjunction with
SYNASC 2011 - 13th International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing
Timisoara, Romania
September 26 - 29, 2011
http://synasc11.info.uvt.ro

Deadlines

+ Submission of abstract: July 30, 2011 (EXTENDED)
+ Notification of acceptance: August 22, 2011
+ Registration: September 1, 2011
+ Workshop starts: September 26, 2011
+ Full papers for special issue: November 30, 2011

Workshop chairs

+ Liubomir Ciric, Institute of Mathematics, Univ. of Belgrade, Serbia
+ Ioan A Rus, Department of Mathematics, Univ. “Babes-Bolyai”, Cluj-Napoca, Romania
+ Stefan Maruster, Department of Computer Science, West Univ. of Timisoara, Romania

Aim

The workshop seeks to enable technical discussions on iterative methods for fixed point approximation. We hope that it will highlight the most recent advances in various branches of this area and will be an opportunity to exchange ideas and new results.

Topics

+ Picard, Mann, Ishikawa and other type iterations.
+ Weakly Picard operators.
+ Ciric operators.
+ Almost contractions.
+ Demicontractive operators.
+ Strong convergence of the Mann/Ishikawa iterations.
+ Stability of iteration procedures.
+ Ulam-Hyers stability and fixed points.
+ Applications (convex feasibility, variational inequalities, etc.).

Paper submission

The authors are invited to submit electronically their contributions as a short abstract (1 page maximum) to St. Maruster (contact data below); these contributions will be evaluated by reviewers and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit and relevance. The papers for which their authors intend to be published, must be in accordance with standards of Annals and written as “Guidelines for authors” recommends.

Publication

The papers accepted for presentation will be included in a locally edited proceedings (electronic version on a memory stick).

Extended versions of the papers accepted and presented at the workshop will be considering to be published as a special issue in the Mathematics and Computer Science Annals of the West University of Timisoara (http://www.math.uvt.ro/anmath/) or in SCPE - Scalable Computing: Practice and Experience (http://www.scpe.org/) (under ISI Thomson evaluation).  

Other possibilities for publication will be formulated soon after the workshop.
