    Best Proximity Points of Generalized Almost Ψ-Geraghty Contractive Non-Self
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2014) Aydi, Hassen; Karapinar, Erdal; Erhan, Inci M.; Salimi, Peyman
    In this paper, we introduce the new notion of almost psi-Geraghty contractive mappings and investigate the existence of a best proximity point for such mappings in complete metric spaces via the weak P-property. We provide an example to validate our best proximity point theorem. The obtained results extend, generalize, and complement some known fixed and best proximity point results from the literature.

    Uniqueness of Solution for Higher-Order Nonlinear Fractional Differential Equations With Multi-Point and Integral Boundary Conditions
    (Springer-verlag Italia Srl, 2021) Sevinik-Adiguzel, Rezan; Aksoy, Umit; Karapinar, Erdal; Erhan, Inci M.
    This study is devoted to the development of alternative conditions for existence and uniqueness of nonlinear fractional differential equations of higher-order with integral and multi-point boundary conditions. It uses a novel approach of employing a fixed point theorem based on contractive iterates of the integral operator for the corresponding fixed point problem. We start with developing an existence-uniqueness theorem for self-mappings with contractive iterate in a b-metric-like space. Then, we obtain the unique solvability of the problem under suitable conditions by utilizing an appropriate b-metric-like space.

    Existence and Uniqueness of Best Proximity Points Under Rational Contractivity Conditions
    (Walter de Gruyter Gmbh, 2016) Karapinar, Erdal; Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco; Sadarangani, Kishin
    The main aim of this paper is to present some theorems in order to guarantee existence and uniqueness of best proximity points under rational contractivity conditions using very general test functions. To illustrate the variety of possible test functions, we include some examples of pairs of functions which are included in innovative papers published in the last years. As a consequence, we prove that our results unify and extend some recent results in this field.

    Coupled Fixed Points for Meir-Keeler Contractions in Ordered Partial Metric Spaces
    (Hindawi Ltd, 2012) Abdeljawad, Thabet; Aydi, Hassen; Karapinar, Erdal
    In this paper, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a new Meir-Keeler type coupled fixed point theorem for two mappings F : X x X -> X and g : X -> X on a partially ordered partial metric space. We present an application to illustrate our obtained results. Further, we remark that the metric case of our results proved recently in Gordji et al. (2012) have gaps. Therefore, our results revise and generalize some of those presented in Gordji et al. (2012)

    Existence of a Solution of Integral Equations Via Fixed Point Theorem
    (Springeropen, 2013) Gulyaz, Selma; Karapinar, Erdal; Rakocevic, Vladimir; Salimi, Peyman
    In this paper, we establish a solution to the following integral equation: u(t) = integral(T)(0) G(t, s)f(s, u(s)) ds for all t is an element of [0,T], (1) where T > 0, f : [0, T] x R -> R and G : [0, T] x [0, T] -> [0, infinity) are continuous functions. For this purpose, we also obtain some auxiliary fixed point results which generalize, improve and unify some fixed point theorems in the literature.

    α-admissible mappings and related fixed point theorems
    (Springeropen, 2013) Hussain, Nawab; Karapinar, Erdal; Salimi, Peyman; Akbar, Farhana
    In this paper, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a fixed point for certain alpha-admissible contraction mappings. Our results generalize and extend some well-known results on the topic in the literature. We consider some examples to illustrate the usability of our results.

    The Existence of Optimal Approximate Solution Theorems for Generalized Α-Proximal Contraction Non-Self Mappings and Applications
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2013) Karapinar, Erdal; Sintunavarat, Wutiphol
    In this paper, we investigate the sufficient conditions to find a best proximity point for a certain class of non-self mappings. It is well known that optimization problems can be transformed to the problems of the existence of a best proximity point. Hence, improvement in the best proximity point theory implicitly develops the theory of optimization. Our presented results generalize, extent and improve various well-known results on the topic in the literature. In particular, we consider some applications of our results to the best proximity point theorems on a class of metric spaces endowed with an arbitrary binary relation which involves the partially ordered metric spaces.

    On the existence of fixed points that belong to the zero set of a certain function
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2015) Karapinar, Erdal; O'Regan, Donal; Samet, Bessem
    Let T : X -> X be a given operator and F-T be the set of its fixed points. For a certain function phi : X -> [0,infinity), we say that F-T is phi-admissible if F-T is nonempty and F-T subset of Z(phi), where Z(phi) is the zero set of phi. In this paper, we study the phi-admissibility of a new class of operators. As applications, we establish a new homotopy result and we obtain a partial metric version of the Boyd-Wong fixed point theorem.
