Proinov-Type Fixed-Point Results in Non-Archimedean Fuzzy Metric Spaces

Very recently, Proinov introduced a great family of contractions in the setting of complete metric spaces that has attracted the attention of many researchers because of the very weak conditions that are assumed on the involved functions. Inspired by Proinov’s results, in this paper, we introduce a new class of contractions in the setting of fuzzy metric spaces (in the sense of George and Veeramani) that are able to translate to this framework the best advantages of the abovementioned auxiliary functions. Accordingly, we present some results about the existence and uniqueness of fixed points for this class of fuzzy contractions in the setting of non-Archimedean fuzzy metric spaces

Convergence results based on graph-Reich contraction in fuzzy metric spaces with application

This article introduces a novel class of Reich-type contractions that meet the graph preservation criteria in the context of complete fuzzy metric spaces. The provided contraction condition is satisfied through various forms of contractive mappings via directed graphs in the literature. Our key result is the natural extension of fuzzy metric spaces to fuzzy metrics enriched with a graph, which adds the understanding of fixed points in metric spaces within the realm of graph structure. The findings are further supported by examples and applications

Fixed points for fuzzy quasi-contractions in fuzzy metric spaces endowed with a graph

[EN] In this paper, we introduce the notion of G-fuzzy H-quasi-contractions using directed graphs in the setting of fuzzy metric spaces endowed with a graph and we show that this new type of contraction generalizes a large number of different types of contractions. Subsequently, we investigate some results concerning the existence of fixed points for this class of contractions under two different conditions in M-complete fuzzy metric spaces endowed with a graph. Our main results of the work significantly generalize many known comparable results in the existing literature. Examples are given to support the usability of our results and to show that they are improvements of some known ones.Dinarvand, M. (2020).

The periodic points of ε-contractive maps in fuzzy metric spaces

[EN] In this paper, we introduce the notion of ε-contractive maps in fuzzy metric space (X, M, ∗) and study the periodicities of ε-contractive maps. We show that if (X, M, ∗) is compact and f : X −→ X is ε-contractive, then P(f) = ∩ ∞n=1f n (X) and each connected component of X contains at most one periodic point of f, where P(f) is the set of periodic points of f. Furthermore, we present two examples to illustrate the applicability of the obtained results.Project supported by NNSF of China (11761011) and NSF of Guangxi (2020GXNSFAA297010) and PYMRBAP for Guangxi CU(2021KY0651)Sun, T.; Han, C.; Su, G.; Qin, B.; Li, L.

On completeness in metric spaces and fixed point theorems

[EN] Complete ultrametric spaces constitute a particular class of the so called, recently, G-complete metric spaces. In this paper we characterize a more general class called weak G-complete metric spaces, by means of nested sequences of closed sets. Then, we also state a general fixed point theorem for a self-mapping of a weak G-complete metric space. As a corollary, every asymptotically regular self-mapping of a weak G-Complete metric space has a fixed point.V.

Extended Proinov X-contractions in metric spaces and fuzzy metric spaces satisfying the property NC by avoiding the monotone condition

In recent years, Fixed Point Theory has achieved great importance within Nonlinear Analysis especially due to its interesting applications in real-world contexts. Its methodology is based on the comparison between the distances between two points and their respective images through a nonlinear operator. This comparison is made through contractive conditions involving auxiliary functions whose role is increasingly decisive, and which are acquiring a prominent role in Functional Analysis. Very recently, Proinov introduced new fixed point results that have very much attracted the researchers’ attention especially due to the extraordinarily weak conditions on the auxiliary functions considered. However, one of them, the nondecreasing character of the main function, has been used for many years without the chance of being replaced by another alternative property. In this way, several researchers have recently raised this question as an open problem in this field of study. In order to face this open problem, in this work we introduce a novel class of auxiliary functions that serve to define contractions, both in metric spaces and in fuzzy metric spaces, which, in addition to generalizing to Proinov contractions, avoid the nondecreasing character of themain auxiliary function. Furthermore, we present these new results in the setting of fuzzy metric spaces that satisfy the conditionNC, which open new possibilities in the metric theory compared to classic non-Archimedean fuzzy metric spaces. Finally, we include some illustrative examples to show how to apply the novel theorems to cases that are not covered by other previous results.Universidad de Granada / CBU

On the construction of metrics from fuzzy metrics and its application to the fixed point theory of multivalued mappings

[EN] We present a procedure to construct a compatible metric from a given fuzzy metric space. We use this approach to obtain a characterization of a large class of complete fuzzy metric spaces by means of a fuzzy version of Caristi’s fixed point theorem, obtaining, in this way, partial solutions to a recent question posed in the literature. Some illustrative examples are also given.The authors thank the referees for several useful suggestions.
