    New generalized fuzzy metrics and fixed point theorem in fuzzy metric space

    In this paper, in fuzzy metric spaces (in the sense of Kramosil and Michalek (Kibernetika 11:336-344, 1957)) we introduce the concept of a generalized fuzzy metric which is the extension of a fuzzy metric. First, inspired by the ideas of Grabiec (Fuzzy Sets Syst. 125:385-389, 1989), we define a new G-contraction of Banach type with respect to this generalized fuzzy metric, which is a generalization of the contraction of Banach type (introduced by M Grabiec). Next, inspired by the ideas of Gregori and Sapena (Fuzzy Sets Syst. 125:245-252, 2002), we define a new GV-contraction of Banach type with respect to this generalized fuzzy metric, which is a generalization of the contraction of Banach type (introduced by V Gregori and A Sapena). Moreover, we provide the condition guaranteeing the existence of a fixed point for these single-valued contractions. Next, we show that the generalized pseudodistance J:X×X→[0,∞) (introduced by Włodarczyk and Plebaniak (Appl. Math. Lett. 24:325-328, 2011)) may generate some generalized fuzzy metric NJ on X. The paper includes also the comparison of our results with those existing in the literature

    In this paper, we present a new proof of the Mazur-Orlicz theorem, which uses the Markov-Kakutani common fixed point theorem, and a new proof of the Markov-Kakutani common fixed point theorem, which uses the Mazur-Orlicz theorem

    New fixed point theorem under R-contractions

    Get PDF
    In this manuscript we introduce the notions of R-function and R-contractions, and we show an ad hoc fixed point theorem. We prove that this new kind of contractions properly includes the family of all Meir-Keeler contractions and other well-known classes of contractions that have been given very recently (for instance, those using simulation functions and manageable functions). As a consequence, our approach turns out to be appropriate to unify the treatment of different kinds of contractive nonlinear operators.This article was funded by the Deanship of Scientific Research (DSR), King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah.

    Fixed point results for set-contractions on metric spaces with a directed graph

    In this paper, we establish the existence of fixed points for set-valued mappings satisfying certain graph contractions with set-valued domain endowed with a graph. These results unify, generalize, and complement various known comparable results in the literature.King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals project IN 121023.http://link.springer.com/journal/11784hb201
