The purpose of this paper is to give a stream-lined proof of the existence and uniqueness of a right-invariant mean on a CHART group. A CHART group is a slight generalisation of a compact topological group. The existence of an invariant mean on a CHART group can be used to prove Furstenberg’s fixed point theorem.

Existence of fixed point in orthogonal metric spaces has been initiated recently by Eshaghi and et al. [On orthogonal sets and Banach fixed Point theorem, Fixed Point Theory, in press]. In this paper, we introduce the notion of the strongly orthogonal sets and prove a genuine generalization of Banach' fixed point theorem and Walter's theorem. Also, we give an example showing that our main theor...

The aim of the present paper is to establish a common fixed point theorem for sequence of self mappings under (φ, ψ)-weak contractions in fuzzy metric space employing the control function which generalizes and improves various well-known comparable results.

This paper discusses the existence of solutions to antiperiodic boundary value problem for nonlinear impulsive fractional differential equations. By using Banach fixed point theorem, Schaefer fixed point theorem, and nonlinear alternative of Leray-Schauder type theorem, some existence results of solutions are obtained. An example is given to illustrate the main result.

The theory of fixed point is a very extensive field, which has various applications. The present paper deals with some developments of Meir-Keeler type fixed point theorem as its remarkable generalizations under several contractive definitions in metric space.

Very recently, Ma et al. (Fixed Point Theory Appl. 2014:206, 2014) introduced C∗-algebra-valued metric spaces as a new concept. Also, Ma and Jiang (Fixed Point Theory Appl. 2015:222, 2015), generalizing this concept, introduced C∗-algebra-valued b-metric spaces. In both frameworks, these and other authors proved some fixed point results. We show in this paper that all these results (as well as ...

We prove a related fixed point Theorem for four mappings which are not continuous in four fuzzy metric spaces, one of them is a sequentially compact fuzzy metric space. Our Theorem in the metric version generalizes Theorem 4 of [1]. Finally, We give a fuzzy version of Theorem 3 of [1].

China Abstract In this paper, we establish some sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions to two classes of boundary value problems for fractional differential equations with nonlocal boundary conditions. Our goal is to establish some criteria of existence for the bound...

We introduce a new concept of generalized metric spaces for which we extend some well-known fixed point results including Banach contraction principle, Ćirić’s fixed point theorem, a fixed point result due to Ran and Reurings, and a fixed point result due to Nieto and Rodríguez-López. This new concept of generalized metric spaces recover various topological spaces including standard metric spac...
