The significance of fixed-point theory stems from the fact that it furnishes a unified approach and constitutes an important tool in solving equations which are not necessarily linear. On the other hand, if the fixed-point equationTx=xdoes not possess a solution, it is contemplated to resolve a problem of finding an elementxsuch thatxis in proximity toTxin some sense. Best proximity pair theorems analyze the conditions under which the optimization problem, namelyminx∈A d(x,Tx)has a solution. In this paper, we discuss the difference between best approximation theorems and best proximity pair theorems. We also discuss an application of a best proximity pair theorem to the theory of games.

We prove that Fan’s theorem is true for discontinuous increasing mappingsfin a real partially ordered reflexive, strictly convex, and smooth Banach spaceX. The main tools of analysis are the variational characterizations of the generalized projection operator and order-theoretic fixed point theory. Moreover, we get some properties of the generalized projection operator in Banach spaces. As applications of our best approximation theorems, the fixed point theorems for non-self-maps are established and proved under some conditions. Our results are generalizations and improvements of the recent results obtained by many authors.

Fixed-point theory in complex valued metric spaces has greatly developed in recent times. In this paper, we prove certain common fixed-point theorems for two single-valued mappings in such spaces. The mappings we consider here are assumed to satisfy certain metric inequalities with generalized fixed-point theorems due to Rouzkard and Imdad (2012). This extends and subsumes many results of other authors which were obtained for mappings on complex-valued metric spaces.

Rhoades (1996) proved a fixed point theorem in a boundedD-metric space for a contractive self-map with applications. Here we establish a more general fixed point theorem in an unboundedD-metric space, for two self-maps satisfying a general contractive condition with a restricted domain ofxandy. This has been done by using the notion of semicompatible maps inD-metric space. These results generalize and improve the results of Rhoades (1996), Dhage et al. (2000), and Veerapandi and Rao (1996). These results also underline the necessity and importance of semicompatibility in fixed point theory ofD-metric spaces. All the results of this paper are new.


In this paper, we introduce the notion of generalized cyclic contraction pair with transitive mapping in partial b-metric spaces. Also, we establish some fixed point theorems for this contraction pair. Our results generalize and improve the result of Oratai Yamaod, Wutiphol Sintunavarat and Yeol Je Cho (Fixed Point Theory App. 2015:164) in partial-b-metric spaces.

Starting from the results, established in [Albu, M., A fixed point theorem of Maia-Perov type. Studia Univ. Babes¸- Bolyai Math., 23 (1978), No. 1, 76–79] and [Mures¸an, V., Basic problem for Maia-Perov’s fixed point theorem, Seminar on Fixed Point Theory, Babes¸ Bolyai Univ., Cluj-Napoca, (1988), Preprint Nr. 3, pp. 43–48] where fixed point theorems of Maia-Perov type are proved, the main aim of this paper is to extend this results to product metric spaces, using Presiˇ c type operators. An existence, uniqueness and data dependence theorem related to the ´ solution of the system of integral equations of Fredholm type in product metric spaces, is also presented.

In recent times there have been two prominent trends in metric fixed point theory. One is the use of weak contractive inequalities and the other is the use of binary relations. Combining the two trends, in this paper we establish a relation-theoretic fixed point result for a mapping which is defined on a metric space with an arbitrary binary relation and satisfies a weak contractive inequality for any pair of points whenever the pair of points is related by a given relation. The uniqueness is obtained by assuming some extra conditions. The metric space is assumed to be R -complete. We use R -continuity of functions. The property of local T-transitivity of the relation R is used in the main theorem. There is an illustrative example. An existing fixed point result is generalized through the present work. We use a method in the proof of our main theorem which is a blending of relation-theoretic and analytic approaches.

It is proved that a pair of reciprocally continuous and nonvacuously compatible single-valued and multivalued maps on a metric space possesses a coincidence. Besides addressing two historical problems in fixed point theory, this result is applied to obtain new general coincidence and fixed point theorems for single-valued and multivalued maps on metric spaces under tight minimal conditions.

The aim of this paper is to introduce new concepts ofα-η-complete metric space andα-η-continuous function and establish fixed point results for modifiedα-η-ψ-rational contraction mappings inα-η-complete metric spaces. As an application, we derive some Suzuki type fixed point theorems and new fixed point theorems forψ-graphic-rational contractions. Moreover, some examples and an application to integral equations are given here to illustrate the usability of the obtained results.
