In this paper, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of minimizers of a fractional variational problem generalized from the energy functional associated with a cantilever beam under a uniformly distributed load. We apply the fractional Euler–Lagrange condition to formulate the minimization problem as a boundary value problem and obtain existence and uniqueness results in both L 2 and L ∞ settings. Additionally, we characterize the continuous dependence of the minimizers on varying loads in the energy functional. Moreover, an approximate solution is derived via the homotopy perturbation method, which is numerically demonstrated in various examples. The results show that the deformations are larger for smaller orders of the fractional derivative. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article, we introduce a new multi-step iteration for approximating a common fixed point of a finite class of multi-valued Bregman relatively nonexpansive mappings in the setting of reflexive Banach spaces. We prove a strong convergence theorem for the proposed iterative algorithm under certain hypotheses. Additionally, we also use our results for the solution of variational inequality problems and to find the zero points of maximal monotone operators. The theorems furnished in this work are new and well-established and generalize many well-known recent research works in this field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
