Best Proximity Point Results for Mk-Proximal Contractions

Abstract

Let A and B be nonempty subsets of a metric space with the distance function d, and T : A -> B is a given non-self-mapping. The purpose of this paper is to solve the nonlinear programming problem that consists in minimizing the real-valued function x bar right arrow. d (x, Tx), where T belongs to a new class of contractive mappings. We provide also an iterative algorithm to find a solution of such optimization problems.
