Fixed point theorems for generalized weakly contractive mappings in metric spaces with applications

Abstract: In this paper, motivated and inspired by Samet et al., we introduce the notion of generalized weakly contractive mappings in metric spaces and prove the existence and uniqueness of fixed point for such mappings, and we obtain a coupled fixed point theorem in metric spaces. These theorems generalize many previously obtained fixed point results. An example is given to illustrate the main result. Finally, we give applications of our results to fixed point results in partial metric spaces. MSC: 47H10; 54H25

“…We have already noted that the main result is an actual generalization of a previous result in [4]. The methodology here is comparable with several other similar results dealing with contractive inequalities noted in [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. There are possibilities of applying relation-theoretic methods to other weakly contractive mappings.…”

“…In both cases, the aim is to retain the fixed point property of the relevant function under relaxed conditions. Some instances of works in the former line are [3][4][5][9][10][11] while references [23][24][25][26] are some works obtained in the latter line of research. Particularly, the present work directly extends the result of [4].…”

“…It is widely used in many fields of mathematics. Due to its importance, many authors have generalized this result in various directions [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. Ciric [1] introduced the concept of generalized contractions.…”

“…This interesting subject has been mediated by certain authors, for example, see References [6][7][8]. In partial metric spaces and partially ordered metric-like spaces, the usual contractive condition is weakened and many researchers apply their results to problems of existence and uniqueness of solutions for some boundary value problems of differential and Integral equations, for example, see References [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] and the references therein.…”
