Existence and uniqueness of the fixed point for this class of contractions is studied. Some consequences are presented. The results are employed in the discussion of existence and uniqueness of solutions of first order boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations. © 2016.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessFixed pointPartially ordered metric spaceRational contractionArticleQ2Q317610951108
