Recently, Asadi et al. [M. Asadi, E. Karapinar, P. Salimi, New extension of p-metric spaces with some fixed-point results on M-metric spaces, Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 18 (2014)] introduced and studied the concept of an M-metric space and proved Banach and Kannan fixed point results in complete M-metric spaces. In this work, we establish some fixed point results for nonlinear contractive mappings by utilizing the control functions which were initiated by Sintunavarat et al. [W. Sintunavarat, Y. J. Cho, P. Kumam, Common fixed point theorems for c-distance in ordered cone metric spaces, Computers and Mathematics with Applications, 62 (2011) 1969-1978]. Presented theorems extend and generalize many existing results in the literature. We also give some illustrative examples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this work is to introduce notions of a modification of the common limit in the range property and two generalized multi-valued F-contraction mappings in metric spaces. Fixed point results with two concepts mentioned above are established. Also, we give an example to illustrate our main results. As applications, we prove the existence of a common solution for the system of functional equations in dynamic programming. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of this work is to introduce the new contractive condition which involves mw-distances in metric spaces. The fixed point theorems for mappings satisfying such contractive condition are established via the idea of an adapting-ceiling distance. Two illustrative examples are also given to confirm that our results rightly generalize many results in the literatures. As an application, the existence and uniqueness of the solution for nonlinear Fredholm integral equations and nonlinear Volterra integral equations are investigated via our main result.

The notion of a modular metric on an arbitrary set and the corresponding modular spaces, generalizing classical modulars over linear spaces like Orlicz spaces, were recently introduced. In this paper we investigate some fixed-point theorems in modular metric spaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this work is to introduce some new notions of generalized convex contraction mappings and establish some approximate fixed point theorems for such mappings in the setting of complete metric spaces. Examples and application to approximate fixed point results for cyclic mappings are also given in order to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The main aim of this paper is to obtain some new common fixed point theorems for weakly compatible mappings in fuzzy metric spaces (in the sense of Kramosil and Michálek) satisfying new contractive conditions employing the common limit in the range property. Our results generalize and extend some recent results contained in Jain et al. (2012) [12] to generalized contractive conditions under some control functions. In the process, some results about multidimensional common fixed points as coupled/tripled/quadrupled common fixed point results are derived from our main results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we introduce the concept of partial α-ψ contractive mappings along with generalized metric distance. We also establish the existence of fixed point theorems for such mappings in generalized metric spaces. Our results extend and unify main results of Karapinar [E. Karapinar, Abstr. Appl. Anal., 2014 (2014), 7 pages] and several well-known results in literature. We give some examples to illustrate the usability of our results. Moreover, we prove the fixed point results in generalized metric space endowed with an arbitrary binary relation and the fixed point results in generalized metric space endowed with graph.

In this paper, we introduce the concept of (α, β)-(ψ, φ)-contractive mapping in b-metric spaces. We establish some fixed point theorems for such mappings and also give an example supporting our results. Finally, we apply our main results to prove a fixed point theorem involving a cyclic mapping.

In this work, we establish some fixed point theorems by revisiting the notion of ψ-contractive mapping in Menger PM-spaces. One of our results (namely, Theorem 2.3) may be viewed as a possible answer to the problem of existence of a fixed point for generalized type contractive mappings in M-complete Menger PM-spaces under arbitrary t-norm. Some examples are furnished to demonstrate the validity of the obtained results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we prove common coupled fixed point theorems under a Geraghty-type condition using monotone instead of the often used mixed monotone property. Also we give some sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of a common coupled fixed point. An example illustrating our results is provided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we introduce the notion of $(\alpha,\theta,k)$-contraction multi-valued mappings and establish some fixed point results for such mappings by using some control functions due to Jleli et al. (J. Inequal. Appl. 2014:439, 2014) in metric spaces and furnish some interesting examples to illustrate our main results. Also, we give some fixed point results in metric spaces endowed with a graph. Our results generalize and extend recent results given by some authors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The object of this paper is to extend the concept of β-admissible for multivalued mappings due to Mohammadi et al. [B. Mohammadi, S. Rezapour and N. Shahzad, Some results on fixed points of α-ψ-Ciric generalized multifunctions, Fixed Point Theory and Applications 2013 (2013), 24] to fuzzy mappings and utilize this concept to prove a common α-fuzzy fixed point theorem for a pair of fuzzy mappings. We also give illustrative example which demonstrate the validity of the hypotheses of our results. Some related results to common fixed point for multivalued mappings are also derived from the main result. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We introduce the new type of nonself mapping and study sufficient conditions for the existence of past-present-future (for short PPF) dependent fixed point for such mapping in the Razumikhin class. Also, we apply our result to prove the PPF dependent coincidence point theorems. Finally, we use PPF dependence techniques to obtain solution for a nonlinear integral problem with delay.

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce the new notion which is more general than the previous works on the weakly isotone mappings in the case of single valued mappings and multivalued mappings in an ordered Banach space. We also extend some common fixed point theorems of Dhage et al. [4] and give some applications of the main results. Furthermore, at the end of this paper, we give an open problem for further investigation. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Recently, Basha (2011) established the best proximity point theorems for proximal contractions of the first and second kinds which are extension of Banach's contraction principle in the case of non-self-mappings. The aim of this paper is to extend and generalize the notions of proximal contractions of the first and second kinds which aremore general than the notion of self-contractions, establish the existence of an optimal approximate solution theorems for these non-self-mappings, and also give examples to validate ourmain results.

We introduce two new concepts of weakly relaxed η-α monotone mappings and weakly relaxed η-α semimonotone mappings. Using the KKM technique, the existence of solutions for variational-like problems with weakly relaxed η-α monotone mapping in reflexive Banach spaces is established. Also, we obtain the existence of solution for variational-like problems with weakly relaxed η-α semimonotone mappings in arbitrary Banach spaces by using the Kakutani-Fan-Glicksberg fixed-point theorem. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We introduce the concept of the generalized wα-contraction mappings and establish the existence of fixed point theorem for such mappings by using the properties of w-distance and α-admissible mappings. We also apply our result to coincidence point and common fixed point theorems in metric spaces. Further, the fixed point theorems endowed with an arbitrary binary relation are also derived from our results. Our results generalize the result of Kutbi, 2013, and several results in the literature.

We introduce the notion of generalized α*-admissible mappings. By using this notion, we prove a fixed point theorem. Our result generalizes Mizoguchi-Takahashi's fixed point theorem. We also provide some examples to show the generality of our work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: In this paper, we extend a multi-valued contraction mapping to a cyclic multi-valued contraction mapping. We also establish the existence of common fixed point theorem for a cyclic multi-valued contraction mapping.

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce the notion of a hybrid generalized multi-valued contraction mapping and establish the common fixed point theorem for this mapping.

We extend the recent results of the coupled fixed point theorems of Cho et al. (2012) by weakening the concept of the mixed monotone property. We also give some examples of a nonlinear contraction mapping, which is not applied to the existence of the coupled fixed point by the results of Cho et al. but can be applied to our results. The main results extend and unify the results of Cho et al. and many results of the coupled fixed point theorems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article, we define a tangential property which can be used not only for single-valued mappings but also for multi-valued mappings, and used it in the prove for the existence of a common fixed point theorems of Gregus type for four mappings satisfying a strict general contractive condition of integral type in metric spaces. Our theorems generalize and unify main results of Pathak and Shahzad (Bull. Belg. Math. Soc. Simon Stevin 16, 277-288, 2009) and several known fixed point results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: In 2007, Kamran [T. Kamran, Multivalued -weakly Picard mappings, Nonlinear Anal. 67 (2007) 2289–2296] extended the notion of multi-valued mapping from weak contraction and generalized -weak contraction to -weak contraction and generalized multi-valued -weak contraction. He also obtained some common fixed point theorems with the notion of -weakly commuting at a coincidence point of a hybrid pair. In this paper, we can drop the condition of -weakly commuting in Theorems 2.9 and 3.5 in . We further extend the notion of generalized multi-valued -weak contraction and introduce the notion of generalized multi-valued -weak contraction. We also establish some coincidence and common fixed point theorems with generalized multi-valued -weak contraction mappings. Our results extend and generalize several common fixed point theorems of many authors. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: In this work, we establish new coincidence and common fixed point theorems for hybrid strict contraction maps by dropping the assumption “ is -weakly commuting” for a hybrid pair of multivalued maps in Theorem 3.10 of T. Kamran (2004) . As an application, an invariant approximation result is derived. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

This article is written due to a small gap in our published paper. In this erratum, we point out and fix the problem to set our existed results at the best of their perfection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: We prove some coincidence and common fixed point theorems for two hybrid pairs of mappings in Menger spaces satisfying a strict contractive condition. An illustrative example is given to support the genuineness of our extension besides deriving some related results. Then, we establish the corresponding common fixed point theorems in metric spaces. Finally, we utilize our main result to obtain the existence of a common solution for a system of Volterra type integral equations. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
