Abstract:In this paper, we extend Caristi’s fixed point theorem in metric spaces to probabilistic metric spaces, and also, we prove some common fixed point theorems for a pair of mappings satisfying a system of Caristi-type contractions in the setting of a Menger space. Two examples are given to support the main results. Furthermore, we have functional equations as an application for the main theorem.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
