    Fixed Point Theorems for a Class of Α-Admissible Contractions and Applications To Boundary Value Problem
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2014) Alsulami, Hamed H.; Gulyaz, Selma; Karapinar, Erdal; Erhan, Inci M.
    A class of alpha-admissible contractions defined via altering distance functions is introduced. The existence and uniqueness conditions for fixed points of such maps on complete metric spaces are investigated and related fixed point theorems are presented. The results are reconsidered in the context of partially ordered metric spaces and applied to boundary value problems for differential equations with periodic boundary conditions.

    Fixed Point Results for Almost Generalized Cyclic (ψ, Φ)-Weak Contractive Type Mappings With Applications
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012) Jleli, Mohamed; Karapinar, Erdal; Samet, Bessem
    We define a class of almost generalized cyclic (psi,phi)-weak contractive mappings and discuss the existence and uniqueness of fixed points for such mappings. We present some examples to illustrate our results. Moreover, we state some applications of our main results in nonlinear integral equations.

    Existence of Periodic Fixed Point Theorems in the Setting of Generalized Quasi-Metric Spaces
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2014) Chen, Chi-Ming; Karapinar, Erdal; Rakocevic, Vladimir
    We introduce the notions of (alpha - phi - psi)-weaker Meir-Keeler contractive mappings and (alpha - phi)- stronger Meir-Keeler contractive mappings. We discuss the existence of periodic points in the setting of generalized quasi-metric spaces. Our results improve, extend, and generalize several results in the literature.

    Best Proximity Point Results for Mk-Proximal Contractions
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012) Jleli, Mohamed; Karapinar, Erdal; Samet, Bessem
    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.

    Fixed Point Theorems Via Auxiliary Functions
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012) Karapinar, Erdal; Salimi, Peyman
    We prove new fixed point theorems in the framework of partially ordered metric spaces. The main result is an extension and a generalization of many existing results in the literature. An example is also considered to illustrate the main result.

    Periodic Points of Weaker Meir-Keeler Contractive Mappings on Generalized Quasimetric Spaces
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2014) Lin, Ing-Jer; Chen, Chi-Ming; Karapinar, Erdal
    By using the weaker Meir-Keeler function phi and the triangular alpha-admissible mapping alpha, we introduce the notion of (alpha - phi)-weaker Meir-Keeler contractive mappings and prove a theorem which assures the existence of a periodic point for these mappings on generalized quasimetric spaces.

    The Generalized Weaker (α-Φ Mappings and Related Fixed Point Results in Complete Generalized Metric Spaces
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2014) Alghamdi, Maryam A.; Chen, Chi-Ming; Karapinar, Erdal
    We introduce the notion of generalized weaker (alpha-phi-phi)-contractive mappings in the context of generalized metric space. We investigate the existence and uniqueness of fixed point of such mappings. Some consequences on existing fixed point theorems are also derived. The presented results generalize, unify, and improve several results in the literature.

    A Note on Best Proximity Point Theorems under Weak P-Property
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2014) Almeida, Angel; Karapinar, Erdal; Sadarangani, Kishin
    In the very recent paper of Akbar and Gabeleh (2013), by using the notion of P-property, it was proved that some late results about the existence and uniqueness of best proximity points can be obtained from the versions of associated existing results in the fixed point theory. Along the same line, in this paper, we prove that these results can be obtained under a weaker condition, namely, weak P-property.

    Some Nonunique Fixed Point Theorems of Ciric Type on Cone Metric Spaces
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010) Karapinar, Erdal
    Some results of (Ciric, 1974) on a nonunique fixed point theorem on the class of metric spaces are extended to the class of cone metric spaces. Namely, nonunique fixed point theorem is proved in orbitally T complete cone metric spaces under the assumption that the cone is strongly minihedral. Regarding the scalar weight of cone metric, we are able to remove the assumption of strongly minihedral.
