Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The aim of this Special Issue is to collect and announce the recent advances and improvements in nonlinear analysis, in particular, fixed point theory, which may help to solve and improve the difficulties arising in the analysis and computational simulation of nonlinear, real-world problems. Both the determination of the qualitative features of solutions for nonlinear models and the analysis of numerical methods to approximate these solutions are of special interest. Papers that study the existence and uniqueness of solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations, systems, as well as relevant features of solution spaces are especially welcome. Works that emphasize the rigorous analysis of computational techniques to simulate the dynamics of complex models in the sciences, engineering and economics are solicited for this Special Issue.

This Special Issue not emphasizes particular mathematical models of nonlinear problems, but also the investigation of the analytical features of the solutions to underlying problems and the analysis of approximation techniques to simulate them. Both deterministic and stochastic models arising in science, engineering and economics will be considered, and pertinent applications to the resolution of practical problems are expected.

These theorems generalize Nadler’s (Multivalued contraction mappings, Pac. J.

The effectiveness of the obtained results has been verified with the help of some comparative examples. Moreover, a homotopy result has been presented as an application. Full article

In this paper, we introduce the notion of ( α , β , ψ ) -contraction for a pair of mappings ( S , T ) defined on a set X. We use our new notion to create and prove a common fixed point theorem for two mappings defined on a metric space ( X , d ) under a set of conditions. Furthermore, we employ our main result to get another new result. Our results are modifications of many existing results in the literature. An example is included in order to show the authenticity of our main result. Full article

The main aim of this paper is to propose the concept of so-called near fixed point and establish many types of near fixed point theorems in the set of all bounded and closed intervals in R . The concept of null set will be proposed in order to interpret the additive inverse element in the set of all bounded closed intervals. Based on the null set, the concepts of metric interval space and normed interval space are proposed, which are not the conventional metric and normed spaces. The concept of near fixed point is also defined based on the null set. In this case, we shall establish many types of near fixed point theorems in the metric and normed interval spaces. Full article

In this article, we introduce a new extension of b-metric spaces, called controlled metric type spaces, by employing a control function α ( x , y ) of the right-hand side of the b-triangle inequality. Namely, the triangle inequality in the new defined extension will have the form, d ( x , y ) ≤ α ( x , z ) d ( x , z ) + α ( z , y ) d ( z , y ) , for   all x , y , z ∈ X . Examples of controlled metric type spaces that are not extended b-metric spaces in the sense of Kamran et al. are given to show that our extension is different. A Banach contraction principle on controlled metric type spaces and an example are given to illustrate the usefulness of the structure of the new extension. Full article
