In this paper, we introduce a new class of completely generalized strongly nonlinear quasivariational inequalities and establish its equivalence with a class of fixed point problems by using the resolvent operator technique. Utilizing this equivalence, we develop a three-step iterative scheme with errors, obtain a few existence theorems of solutions for the completely generalized non-linear strongly quasivariational inequality involving relaxed monotone, relaxed Lipschitz, strongly monotone and generalized pseudocontractive mappings and prove some convergence and stability results of the sequence generated by the three-step iterative scheme with errors. Our results include several previously known results as special cases.

We show that a (possibly unbounded) linear operator, T, is scalar on the real line (spectral operator of scalar type, with real spectrum) if and only if (iT) generates a uniformly bounded semigroup and $(1-iT)(1+iT)^{-1}$ is scalar on the unit circle. T is scalar on [0, $\infty$) if and only if T generates a uniformly bounded semigroup and $(1+T)^{-1}$ is scalar on [0,1). By analogy with these results, we define $C^0$-scalar, on the real line, or [0. $\infty$), for an unbounded operator. We show that a generator of a positive-definite group is $C^0$-scalar on the real line. and a generator of a completely monotone semigroup is $C^0$-scalar on [0, $\infty$). We give sufficient conditions for a closed operator, T, to generate a positive-definite group: the sequence < $\phi(T^{n}x)$ > $_{n=0}^{\infty}$ must equal the moments of a positive measure on the real line, for sufficiently many positive $\phi$ in $X^{*}$, x in X. If the measures are supported on [0, $\infty$), then T generates a completely monotone semigroup. On a reflexive Banach lattice, these conditions are also necessary, and are equivalent to T being scalar, with positive projection-valued measure. T generates a completely monotone semigroup if and only if T is positive and m-dispersive and generates a bounded holomorphic semigroup.

In this paper we present the weighted shift operators having the property of moment infinite divisibility. We first review the monotone theory and conditional positive definiteness. Next, we study the infinite divisibility of sequences. A sequence of real numbers γ is said to be infinitely divisible if for any p > 0, the sequence γ^p = {γ^p_n}^∞_n=0 is positive definite. For sequences α = {α_n}^∞_n=0 of positive real numbers, we consider the weighted shift operators W_α. It is also known that W_α is moment infinitely divisible if and only if the sequences {γ_n}^∞_n=0 and {γ_n+1}^∞_n=0 of W_α are infinitely divisible. Here γ is the moment sequence associated with α. We use conditional positive definiteness to establish a new criterion for moment infinite divisibility of W_α, which only requires infinite divisibility of the sequence {γ_n}^∞_n=0. Finally, we consider some examples and properties of weighted shift operators having the property of (k, 0)-CPD; that is, the moment matrix M_γ(n, k) is CPD for any n ≥ 0.
