Abstract: A new continuity theorem of minimum selection is presented for a continuous set-valued operator from a topological space into a Banach space with some uniform convexity. As applications, some problems concerning minimum right inverses for linear operators and minimum fixed points for condensing set-valued nonlinear operators are discussed. Also, the existence of minimum solutions for an integral inclusion is proved. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: In this paper level-cut measures of noncompactness are introduced in standard fuzzy normed spaces and condensing operators are studied. Using the extensions of nonlinear compact operators, topological degree theory with respect to condensing operators is given in standard fuzzy normed spaces. As an application of degree theory, a fixed point theorem for condensing operators is presented. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

In this paper, the Leray–Schauder topological degree theory is developed in a fuzzy normed space. Since the linear topology on this fuzzy normed space is not necessarily locally convex, and since each Menger probabilistic normed space can be considered as a special fuzzy normed space, the degree theory in this paper is different from the degree theory in locally convex linear topological space presented by Nagumo (Amer. J. Math. 73 (1951) 497–511), and it also is an extension of the degree theory in Menger probabilistic normed space studied by Zhang and Chen (Appl. Math. Mech. 10(6) (1989) 477–486). Applying this degree theory, some fixed point theorems for operators are given in fuzzy normed spaces, and some former corresponding results are extended and improved. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

In this paper the new definition of the fuzzy norm of a linear operator from one fuzzy normed linear space into another is introduced; and the boundedness of such an operator is described. Furthermore, the space of all bounded linear operators endowed with this fuzzy norm is studied; consequently, its topological structure as well as completeness is given, and that it can itself be made into a fuzzy normed linear space is also shown.
