A characterization of Smyth complete quasi-metric spaces via Caristi's fixed point theorem
We obtain a quasi-metric generalization of Caristi's fixed point theorem for a kind of complete quasi-metric spaces. With the help of a suitable modification of its proof, we deduce a characterization of Smyth complete quasi-metric spaces which provides a quasi-metric generalization of the well-known characterization of metric completeness due to Kirk. Some illustrative examples are also given. As an application, we deduce a procedure which allows to easily show the existence of solution for the recurrence equation of certain algorithms.The authors are grateful to the reviewers for several suggestions which have allowed to improve the first version of the paper.

Fixed point results for generalized cyclic contraction mappings in partial metric spaces
Rus (Approx. Convexity 3:171â178, 2005) introduced the concept of cyclic contraction
mapping. PËacurar and Rus (Nonlinear Anal. 72:1181â1187, 2010) proved some fixed
point results for cyclic Ď-contraction mappings on a metric space. Karapinar (Appl. Math.
Lett. 24:822â825, 2011) obtained a unique fixed point of cyclic weak Ď- contraction mappings
and studied well-posedness problem for such mappings. On the other hand, Matthews
(Ann. New York Acad. Sci. 728:183â197, 1994) introduced the concept of a partial metric
as a part of the study of denotational semantics of dataflow networks. He gave a modified
version of the Banach contraction principle, more suitable in this context. In this paper, we
initiate the study of fixed points of generalized cyclic contraction in the framework of partial
metric spaces. We also present some examples to validate our results.S.

Q-functions on quasimetric spaces and fixed points for multivalued maps
[EN] We discuss several properties of Q-functions in the sense of Al-Homidan et al.. In particular, we
prove that the partial metric induced by any T0
weighted quasipseudometric space is a Q-function
and show that both the Sorgenfrey line and the Kofner plane provide signiÂżcant examples of
quasimetric spaces for which the associated supremum metric is a Q-function. In this context we
also obtain some Âżxed point results for multivalued maps by using Bianchini-GrandolÂż gauge
functions.The authors thank one of the reviewers for suggesting the inclusion of a concrete example to which Theorem 3.3 applies.

Localic completion of uniform spaces
We extend the notion of localic completion of generalised metric spaces by
Steven Vickers to the setting of generalised uniform spaces. A generalised
uniform space (gus) is a set X equipped with a family of generalised metrics on
X, where a generalised metric on X is a map from the product of X to the upper
reals satisfying zero self-distance law and triangle inequality.
For a symmetric generalised uniform space, the localic completion lifts its
generalised uniform structure to a point-free generalised uniform structure.
This point-free structure induces a complete generalised uniform structure on
the set of formal points of the localic completion that gives the standard
completion of the original gus with Cauchy filters.
We extend the localic completion to a full and faithful functor from the
category of locally compact uniform spaces into that of overt locally compact
completely regular formal topologies. Moreover, we give an elementary
characterisation of the cover of the localic completion of a locally compact
uniform space that simplifies the existing characterisation for metric spaces.
These results generalise the corresponding results for metric spaces by Erik
Palmgren.
Furthermore, we show that the localic completion of a symmetric gus is
equivalent to the point-free completion of the uniform formal topology
associated with the gus.
We work in Aczel's constructive set theory CZF with the Regular Extension
Axiom. Some of our results also require Countable Choice.Comment: 39 page
Computable decision making on the reals and other spaces via partiality and nondeterminism
Though many safety-critical software systems use floating point to represent
real-world input and output, programmers usually have idealized versions in
mind that compute with real numbers. Significant deviations from the ideal can
cause errors and jeopardize safety. Some programming systems implement exact
real arithmetic, which resolves this matter but complicates others, such as
decision making. In these systems, it is impossible to compute (total and
deterministic) discrete decisions based on connected spaces such as
. We present programming-language semantics based on constructive
topology with variants allowing nondeterminism and/or partiality. Either
nondeterminism or partiality suffices to allow computable decision making on
connected spaces such as . We then introduce pattern matching on
spaces, a language construct for creating programs on spaces, generalizing
pattern matching in functional programming, where patterns need not represent
decidable predicates and also may overlap or be inexhaustive, giving rise to
nondeterminism or partiality, respectively. Nondeterminism and/or partiality
also yield formal logics for constructing approximate decision procedures. We
implemented these constructs in the Marshall language for exact real
arithmetic.Comment: This is an extended version of a paper due to appear in the
proceedings of the ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS) in
July 201
The connected Vietoris powerlocale
The connected Vietoris powerlocale is defined as a strong monad Vc on the category of locales. VcX is a sublocale of Johnstone's Vietoris powerlocale VX, a localic analogue of the Vietoris hyperspace, and its points correspond to the weakly semifitted sublocales of X that are âstrongly connectedâ. A product map Ă:VcXĂVcYâVc(XĂY) shows that the product of two strongly connected sublocales is strongly connected. If X is locally connected then VcX is overt. For the localic completion of a generalized metric space Y, the points of are certain Cauchy filters of formal balls for the finite power set with respect to a Vietoris metric. \ud
Application to the point-free real line gives a choice-free constructive version of the Intermediate Value Theorem and Rolle's Theorem. \ud
\ud
The work is topos-valid (assuming natural numbers object). Vc is a geometric constructio
The extensional realizability model of continuous functionals and three weakly non-constructive classical theorems
We investigate wether three statements in analysis, that can be proved
classically, are realizable in the realizability model of extensional
continuous functionals induced by Kleene's second model . We prove that a
formulation of the Riemann Permutation Theorem as well as the statement that
all partially Cauchy sequences are Cauchy cannot be realized in this model,
while the statement that the product of two anti-Specker spaces is anti-Specker
can be realized
