Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Fixed point theory is one of the most powerful techniques of modern mathematics, especially in pure and applied analysis, topology, and the lattice, set, and category theories. The fixed point method was first introduced by Poincare in 1866 for the study of differential equations of celestial mechanics. Among the most original and far-reaching results in fixed point theory, the Banach and Brouwer theorems are two classical fixed point theorems that illustrate the difference between the two main branches of the theory: the metric fixed point and topological fixed point theories. For more than a century, fixed point theory has played an important role in nonlinear analysis and has been used an enormous number of applications in various areas, such as control theory, optimization, game theory, and economics.

The object of this Special Issue is to provide a platform for researchers to share and discuss the recent advancements and challenges in fixed point theory. We aim to collate recent, high-quality works in this area. We solicit contributions to fixed point theorems, possibly accompanied by concrete examples, that apply original and novel ideas to recent developments in theory and avoid any trivial extensions to already solidified results.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Fixed point theory in various abstract spaces;
  • Best proximity point theory in various abstract spaces;
  • Existence of solutions of differential and integral equations via fixed point results;
  • Equilibrium problems;
  • Variational inequality problems;
  • Saddle point problems;
  • Minimax problems;
  • Numerical methods for obtaining the approximated fixed points.

In this paper, we focus on the asymptotic stability of the trajectories governed by the differential inequalities with mixed delays using the fixed-point theorem. It is interesting that the Halanay inequality is a special case of the differential inequality studied in this paper. Our results generalize and improve the existing results on Halanay inequality. Finally, three numerical examples are utilized to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained results. Full article

This article introduces a novel iterative process, denoted as F★, designed for the class of generalized α-Nonexpensive mappings. The study establishes strong and weak convergence theorems within the context of Banach spaces, supported by carefully chosen assumptions. The convergence results contribute to the theoretical foundation of iterative processes in functional analysis. The presented framework is applied to address nonlinear integral equations, showcasing the versatility and applicability of the proposed F* for the class of generalized iteration process. Additionally, the article includes numerical examples that not only validate the theoretical findings but also provide insights into the practical utility of the developed methodology. Full article

In the context of a complete metric space, the most important fixed-point result for multi-valued operators was given in 1969. Many extensions of this fixed-point principle for multi-valued operators were proved by different authors. Based on some of the above-mentioned results, we introduce the notion of the multi-valued Feng–Liu-type operator and we construct an abstract fixed-point theory for this general class of multi-valued operators. Our results extend and complement some theorems in metric fixed-point theory for multi-valued operators. An application to a Cauchy problem related to a first-order differential inclusion is also given. In this case, our theorem improves several previous theorems on this subject by relaxing the contraction-type condition (with respect to its second argument) on the multi-valued right-hand side.

This paper is dedicated to the advancement of fixed-point results for multi-valued asymptotically non-expansive maps regarding convergence criteria in complete uniformly convex hyperbolic metric spaces that are endowed with a graph. The famous fixed-point theorems of Goebel and Kirk, Khamsi and Khan, along with other recent results in the literature can be obtained as corollaries of these main results. A nice graph and an interesting example are also provided in support of the hypothesis of the main results. Full article

In this paper, we introduce a new iterative method that combines the inertial subgradient extragradient method and the modified Mann method for solving the pseudomonotone variational inequality problem and the fixed point of quasi-Bregman nonexpansive mapping in p-uniformly convex and uniformly smooth real Banach spaces. Under some standard assumptions imposed on cost operators, we prove a strong convergence theorem for our proposed method. Finally, we perform numerical experiments to validate the efficiency of our proposed method. Full article

In this manuscript, we prove several common fixed point theorems for generalized rational-type contraction mappings under several conditions in the context of double-controlled metric spaces. Further, we utilize a double-controlled metric space equipped with a graph to prove rational-type common fixed point theorems. Furthermore, we establish non-trivial examples to show the validity of the main results. These results improve and generalize already known results. At the end, we solve the Fredholm-type integral equation by utilizing the main results. Full article

In this paper, we design two inertial-type subgradient extragradient algorithms with the linear-search process for resolving the two pseudomonotone variational inequality problems (VIPs) of and the common fixed point problem (CFPP) of finite Bregman relatively nonexpansive operators and Bregman relatively demicontractive operators in Banach spaces of both p-uniform convexity and uniform smoothness, which are more general than Hilbert ones. By the aid of suitable restrictions, it is shown that the sequences fabricated by the suggested schemes converge weakly and strongly to a solution of a pair of VIPs with a CFPP constraint, respectively. Additionally, the illustrative instance is furnished to back up the practicability and implementability of the suggested methods. This paper reveals the competitive advantage of the proposed algorithms over the existing algorithms; that is, the existing hybrid projection method for a single VIP with an FPP constraint is extended to develop the modified inertial-type subgradient extragradient method for a pair of VIPs with an CFPP constraint.

Our investigation is devoted to examining the existence, uniqueness, and multiplicity of positive solutions for a system of Hadamard fractional differential equations. This system is defined on an infinite interval and is subject to coupled nonlocal boundary conditions. These boundary conditions encompass both Hadamard fractional derivatives and Riemann–Stieltjes integrals, and the nonlinearities within the system are non-negative functions that may not be bounded. To establish the main results, we rely on the utilization of mathematical theorems such as the Schauder fixed-point theorem, the Banach contraction mapping principle, and the Avery–Peterson fixed-point theorem.

The idea of enriched mappings in normed spaces is relatively a newer idea. In this paper, we initiate the study of enriched mappings in modular function spaces. We first introduce the concepts of enriched ρ-contractions and enriched ρ-Kannan mappings in modular function spaces. We then establish some Banach Contraction Principle type theorems for the existence of fixed points of such mappings in this setting. Our results for enriched ρ-contractions are generalizations of the corresponding results from Banach spaces to modular function spaces and those from contractions to enriched ρ-contractions. We make a first ever attempt to prove existence results for enriched ρ-Kannan mappings and deduce the result for ρ-Kannan mappings. Note that even ρ-Kannan mappings in modular function spaces have not been considered yet. We validate our main results by examples. Full article
