this paper is concerned with the best proximity pair problem in hilbert spaces. given two subsets $a$ and $b$ of a hilbert space $h$ and the set-valued maps $f:a o 2^ b$ and $g:a_0 o 2^{a_0}$, where $a_0={xin a: |x-y|=d(a,b)~~~mbox{for some}~~~ yin b}$, best proximity pair theorems provide sufficient conditions that ensure the existence of an $x_0in a$ such that $$d(g(x_0),f(x_0))=d(a,b).$$

In this paper, we introduce a pair of generalized proximal contraction mappings and prove the existence of a unique best proximity point for such mappings in a complete metric space. We provide examples to illustrate our result. Our result extends some of the results in the literature.

‎In this paper‎, ‎first we introduce the notion of $frac{1}{2}$-modular metric spaces and weak $(alpha,Theta)$-$omega$-contractions in this spaces and we establish some results of best proximity points‎. ‎Finally‎, ‎as consequences of these theorems‎, ‎we derive best proximity point theorems in modular metric spaces endowed with a graph and in partially ordered metric spaces‎. ‎We present an ex...

Best approximation results provide an approximate solution to the fixed point equation $Tx=x$, when the non-self mapping $T$ has no fixed point. In particular, a well-known best approximation theorem, due to Fan cite{5}, asserts that if $K$ is a nonempty compact convex subset of a Hausdorff locally convex topological vector space $E$ and $T:Krightarrow E$ is a continuous mapping, then there exi...
