The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of abstraction offer of basic concept principle and feedback of self-efficacy attributional and mathematical study ability of math underachievers in high school based on the attribution theory and self-efficacy theory. The hypothesis were posed as below : Hypothesis 1: The experimental group that takes the abstraction offer of concept principle and attributional feedback training would be better at most self-efficacy than the control group that doesn't. Hypothesis 2: The experimental group that takes the abstraction offer of concept principle and attributional feedback training would have better math achievement than the control group that doesn't. They were divided into an experimental group and a control group, and the attribution disposition, self-efficacy and academic achievement of the children were measured by pretest and posttest. For data analysis, SPSS/PC+ program was employed and t-test was conducted. The main findings of this study were as below : First, the abstraction offer of concept principle and attributional feedback training was effective for enhancing the math self-efficacy in high school underachievers. Second, the abstraction offer of concept principle and attributional feedback training was effective for increasing the math achievement in high school underachievers.

In a recent paper, M. Balaj [B] established an alternative principle. The principle was applied to a matching theorem of Ky Fan type, an analytic alternative, a minimax inequality, and existence of solutions of a vector equilibrium theorem. Based on the first author's fixed point theorems, in the present paper, we obtain generalizations of the main result of Balaj [B] and their applications.

We study the optimal control problem of system governed by retarded functional differential $$ x'(t) = A_0 x(t) + A_1 x(t - h) + \\ulcorner\ulcorner\ulcorner_{-h}^{0} a(s)A_2 x(t + s)ds + B_0 u(t) $$ in Hilbert space H. After the fundamental facts of retarded system and the description of condition so called a weak backward uniqueness property are established, the technically important maximal principle and the bang-bang principle are given. its corresponding linear system.

In this paper, we investigate maximum principle, convergence of sequences and angular limits for harmonic Bloch mappings. First, we give the maximum principle of harmonic Bloch mappings, which is a generalization of the classical maximum principle for harmonic mappings. Second, by using the maximum principle of harmonic Bloch mappings, we investigate the convergence of sequences for harmonic Bloch mappings. Finally, we discuss the angular limits of harmonic Bloch mappings. We show that the asymptotic values and angular limits are identical for harmonic Bloch mappings, and we further prove a result that applies also if there is no asymptotic value. A sufficient condition for a harmonic Bloch mapping has a finite angular limit is also given.

We prove the boundary Harnack principle and the Carleson type estimate for ratios of solutions u/v of non-divergence second order elliptic equations $Lu=a_{ij}D_{ij}+b_iD_iu=0$ in a bounded domain ${\Omega}{\subset}R_n$. We assume that $b_i{\in}L^n({\Omega})$ and ${\Omega}$ is a $H{\ddot{o}}lder$ domain of order ${\alpha}{\in}$ (0, 1) satisfying a strong regularity condition.

In this paper, a new Ekeland type variational principle on gauge spaces is established. As applications, we give Caristi-Kirk type fixed point theorems on gauge spaces, and Dane$\check{s}$' drop theorem on seminormed spaces. Also, we show that the Palais-Smale condition implies coercivity on semi-normed spaces.

In this note, we generalize the weak maximum principle in [4] to the case of complete linear Weingarten hypersurface in Riemannian space form $\mathbb{M}^{n+1}(c)$ (c = 1, 0,-1), and apply it to estimate the norm of the total umbilicity tensor. Furthermore, we will study the linear Weingarten hypersurface in $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}(1)$ with the aid of this weak maximum principle and extend the rigidity results in Li, Suh, Wei [13] and Shu [15] to the case of complete hypersurface.

In this paper we prove Ekeland's variational principle in the setting of locally complete spaces for lower semi continuous functions from above and bounded below. We use this theorem to prove Caristi's fixed point theorem in the same setting and also for lower semi continuous functions.

The aim of this paper is to establish variational principle on cone metric spaces and to give some existence theorems of solutions for equilibrium problems on cone metric spaces. We give some equivalences of an existence theorem of solutions for equilibrium problems on cone metric spaces.
