Abstract. In this paper, we prove results on n-tupled coincidence as well as n-tupled fixed point in partially ordered complete metric spaces for a pair of weakly contractive compatible mappings whenever n is even, wherein control functions are also employed. Our main theorem improves the corresponding results of Choudhury et al. (Ann. Univ. Ferrara 57: 1-16, 2011). We illustrate our main resul...

In this paper, we prove a general common fixed point theorem for two pairs of weakly compatible self-mappings of a (possibly non complete) metric space such that one of them satisfies the property (E.A) under a contractive condition of Lipschitz type. Our result provides a generalization and some improvements to a result obtained by K. Jha, R.P. Pant and S.L. Singh in 2003 and a recent result o...

We can see from (p) and (p) that p(x, y) =  implies x = y. However, the converse is not necessarily true. A typical example of this situation is provided by the partial metric space (R,pmax), where the function pmax : R+ × R+ → R+ is defined by pmax(x, y) =max{x, y} for all x, y ∈ R+. Other examples of partial metric spaces which are interesting from a computational point of view may be foun...

In this paper, we consider, discuss and complement fixed points results for mappings satisfying cyclical contractive conditions established by W. A. Kirk et al. [W. A. Kirk, P. S. Srinivasan, P. Veeramani, Fixed points for mappings satisfying cyclical contractive conditions, Fixed Point Theory, Volume 4, No. 1, 2003, 79-89]. By using our new Lemma we get much shorter and nicer proofs of some re...

In this paper we study how to avoid escapes in open dynamical systems in the presence of dissipation and forcing, as it occurs in realistic physical situations. We use as a prototype model the Helmholtz oscillator, which is the simplest nonlinear oscillator with escapes. For some parameter values, this oscillator presents a critical value of the forcing for which all particles escape from its s...

Recently‎, some researchers have established some results on existence of endpoints for multivalued mappings. In particular, Mohammadi and Rezapour's [Endpoints of Suzuki type quasi-contractive multifunctions, U.P.B. Sci. Bull., Series A, 2015] used the technique of $alpha-psi$-contractive mappings, due to Samet et al. (2012), to give some results about endpoints of Suzuki type quasi-contractiv...

Fixed point results for a self-map satisfying locally contractive conditions on a closed ball in an ordered 0-complete quasi-partial metric space have been established. Instead of monotone mapping, the notion of dominated mappings is applied. We have used weaker metric, weaker contractive conditions, and weaker restrictions to obtain unique fixed points. An example is given which shows that how...
