Abstract

Since the 1970s and 1980s, significant contributions have been made by Weiss, Butnariu, Heilpern, Chitra, Subrahmanyam, and others, extending fixed-point theorems to fuzzy mappings and topological spaces. This paper provides two generalizations of two important fixed-point theorems, one provided by Butnariu and the other provided by Chitra. The first generalization ensures that, under certain conditions, an acyclic fuzzy mapping has a fixed point. The second result ensures the existence of a point in the intersection of two or more fuzzy mappings considering contractible finite dimensional ANR spaces, which is a generalization of the statement provided by Chitra.
