Generalized cyclic contractions in partially ordered metric spaces

Abkar and Gabeleh in (J. Optim. Theory. Appl. doi:10.1007/s10957-011-9818-2) proved some theorems which ensure the existence and convergence of fixed points, as well as best proximity points for cyclic mappings in ordered metric spaces. In this paper we extend these results to generalized cyclic contractions and obtain some new results on the existence and convergence of fixed points for weakly contractive mappings, as well as on best proximity points for cyclic ??-contraction mappings in partially ordered metric spaces.

Extensions of Edelstein's Theorem on Contractive Mappings

The aim of this article is to provide extensions of Edelstein's theorem for a class of contractive mappings, namely cyclic contractive mappings. We prove the existence and convergence of best proximity points of a cyclic contractive map. We also discuss continuity properties of cyclic contractive maps. Finally, we give a characterization of such maps in the setting of a Hilbert space.     

Best Proximity Point Theorems for Some Special Proximal Contractions

This article explores some new best proximity point theorems for absolute proximal cyclic contractions and dual supreme proximal contractions which are not necessarily continuous. As a consequence of such best proximity point theorems, the famous contraction principle is elicited.     

Remarks on Minimal Sets for Cyclic Mappings in Uniformly Convex Banach Spaces

In this article, we prove that every nonempty and convex pair of subsets of uniformly convex in every direction Banach spaces has the proximal normal structure and then we present a best proximity point theorem for cyclic relatively nonexpansive mappings in such spaces. We also study the structure of minimal sets of cyclic relatively nonexpansive mappings and obtain the existence results of best proximity points for cyclic mappings using some new geometric notions on minimal sets. Finally, we prove a best proximity point theorem for a new class of cyclic contraction-type mappings in the setting of uniformly convex Banach spaces and so, we improve the main conclusions of Eldred and Veeramani.     

Coincidence and common fixed point results on metric spaces endowed with an arbitrary binary relation and applications

In this paper, we establish coincidence and common fixed point theorems for contractive mappings on a metric space endowed with an amorphous binary relation. The presented theorems extend the results of Samet and Turinici in [Commun. Math. Anal. 12 (2012), 82– 97] and generalize many existing results on metric and ordered metric spaces. We apply also our main results to derive coincidence and common fixed point theorems for cyclic contractive mappings.     

Proximal Weakly Contractive and Proximal Nonexpansive Non-self-Mappings in Metric and Banach Spaces

In this work, we consider two classes of non-self-mappings, which are called proximal weakly contractive and proximal nonexpansive mappings, and study the existence of solutions of a minimization problem. Existence results of best proximity points for these two classes of non-self-mappings in metric and Banach spaces are also obtained.     

Best proximity point results in non-Archimedean fuzzy metric spaces

We consider the problem of finding a best proximity point which achieves the minimum distance between two nonempty sets in a non-Archimedean fuzzy metric space. First we prove the existence and uniqueness of the best proximity point by using different contractive conditions, then we present some examples to support our best proximity point theorems.

Optimum solutions for a system of differential equations via measure of noncompactness

New classes of mappings, called cyclic (noncyclic) condensing operators, are introduced and used to investigate the existence of best proximity points (best proximity pairs) with the help of a suitable measure of noncompactness. In this way, we obtain some real generalizations of Schauder and Darbo’s fixed point theorems. In the last section, we apply such results to study the existence of optimum solutions to a system of differential equations.     

Best proximity points: approximation and optimization

A best proximity point theorem explores the existence of an optimal approximate solution, known as a best proximity point, to the equations of the form Tx = x where T is a non-self mapping. The purpose of this article is to establish some best proximity point theorems for non-self non-expansive mappings, non-self Kannan- type mappings and non-self Chatterjea-type mappings, thereby producing optimal approximate solutions to some fixed point equations. Also, algorithms for determining such optimal approximate solutions are furnished in some cases.     

Common fixed point theorems of Gregus type for weakly compatible mappings satisfying generalized contractive conditions

We prove a common fixed point theorem of Gregus type for four mappings satisfying a generalized contractive condition in metric spaces using the concept of weak compatibility which generalizes theorems of [I. Altun, D. Turkoglu, B.E. Rhoades, Fixed points of weakly compatible mappings satisfying a general contractive condition of integral type, Fixed Point Theory Appl. 2007 (2007), article ID 17301; A. Djoudi, L. Nisse, Gregus type fixed points for weakly compatible mappings, Bull. Belg. Math. Soc. 10 (2003) 369-378; A. Djoudi, A. Aliouche, Common fixed point theorems of Gregus type for weakly compatible mappings satisfying contractive conditions of integral type, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 329 (1) (2007) 31-45; P. Vijayaraju, B.E. Rhoades, R. Mohanraj, A fixed point theorem for a pair of maps satisfying a general contractive condition of integral type, Int. J. Math. Math. Sci. 15 (2005) 2359-2364; X. Zhang, Common fixed point theorems for some new generalized contractive type mappings, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 333 (2) (2007) 780-786]. We prove also a common fixed point theorem which generalizes Theorem 3.5 of [H.K. Pathak, M.S. Khan, T. Rakesh, A common fixed point theorem and its application to nonlinear integral equations, Comput. Math. Appl. 53 (2007) 961-971] and common fixed point theorems of Gregus type using a strict generalized contractive condition, a property (E.A) and a common property (E.A).

Multidimensional fixed point theorems in partially ordered complete metric spaces

In this paper we propose a notion of coincidence point between mappings in any number of variables and we prove some existence and uniqueness fixed point theorems for nonlinear mappings verifying different kinds of contractive conditions and defined on partially ordered metric spaces. These theorems extend and clarify very recent results that can be found in [T. Gnana-Bhaskar, V. Lakshmikantham, Fixed point theorems in partially ordered metric spaces and applications, Nonlinear Anal. 65 (7)(2006) 1379–1393], [V. Berinde, M. Borcut, Tripled fixed point theorems for contractive type mappings in partially ordered metric spaces, Nonlinear Anal. 74 (2011) 4889–4897] and [M. Berzig, B. Samet, An extension of coupled fixed point’s concept in higher dimension and applications, Comput. Math. Appl. 63 (8) (2012) 1319–1334].

Multivalued generalized nonlinear contractive maps and fixed points

We introduce some notions of generalized nonlinear contractive maps and prove some fixed point results for such maps. Consequently, several known fixed point results are either improved or generalized including the corresponding recent fixed point results of Ciric [L.B. Ciric, Multivalued nonlinear contraction mappings, Nonlinear Anal. 71 (2009) 2716-2723], Klim and Wardowski [D. Klim, D. Wardowski, Fixed point theorems for set-valued contractions in complete metric spaces, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 334 (2007) 132-139], Feng and Liu [Y. Feng, S. Liu, Fixed point theorems for multivalued contractive mappings and multivalued Caristi type mappings, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 317 (2006) 103-112] and Mizoguchi and Takahashi [N. Mizoguchi, W. Takahashi, Fixed point theorems for multivalued mappings on complete metric spaces, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 141 (1989) 177-188].
