This study introduces the concepts of orthogonally modified F-contraction of type-I and type-II and certain fixed-point theorems for self-mapping in orthogonal metrics, such as space, have been proved. The proven results generalize and extend some well-known results in the literature. The application of the main results has been presented.

Keywords: Orthogonal set, Orthogonally modified F-contraction of type-I, Type-II, Fixed point

As a generalization of the metric space, by introducing the concept of metric-like space in 2000, Hitzler and Seda [1] provided a valuable contribution to the fixed point theory, permitting self-distance to be non-zero, as it cannot be possible in metric space. They studied the metric-like space under the name of “Dislocated metric space,” and Amini-Harandi [2] reintroduced the dislocated metric space by a new name known as metric-like space.

The concept of an orthogonal set has many applications in several branches of mathematics and several types of orthogonalities [35]. Wardowski [6] introduced a new concept of contraction and proved the fixed-point theorem, which is the generalized Banach contraction principle. Nazam et al. [7] proved fixed-point problems for generalized contractions. Alsulami et al. [8] introduced fixed points of modified ℱ-contractive mapping in complete metric-like spaces. Orthogonal contractive-type mappings have been studied by many authors, and important results have been obtained by [911]. In this paper, we introduce a new orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, type-II and prove the fixed point on an orthogonal-complete metric, such as space.

Throughout this paper, we use , ℝ+, and to denote the non-empty set, the set of positive real numbers, the set of positive integers, and the set of non-negative integers, respectively.

First, we recall the concept of the control function introduced by Wardowski [6]. Let ϒ denote the family of all functions ℱ: ℝ+ → ℝ that satisfy the following properties:

(ℱ1) ℱ is strictly non-decreasing;

(ℱ2) for every sequence {ηι} of non-negative numbers, we have

limιηι=0limιF(ηι)=-α

In 2012, Amini-Harandi [12] introduced the concept of metric-type space as follows:

Definition 2.1 ([12])

Let be a non-empty set. A function is said to be metric-like (dislocated) on , if for all , the following conditions hold:

  • (⊤1) ⊤(ν,μ) = 0 ⇒ ν = μ,

  • (⊤2) ⊤(ν,μ) = ⊤(μ,ν),

  • (⊤3) ⊤(ν,μ) ≤ ⊤(ν,ß) + ⊤(ß,μ),

Then, pair is said to be a metric-like (or dislocated) space.

In 2015, Alsulami et al. [8] introduced the notions of modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, type-II and proved the existence and uniqueness of a fixed-point theorem. Furthermore, Gordji et al. [3] introduced the concept of an orthogonal set (or -set), and some examples and properties of the orthogonal sets are as follows:

Definition 2.2 ([3])

Let and be binary relations. If ⊦ satisfies the following condition:

w0J:(wJ,ww0)         or         (wJ,w0w),

Thus, it is known as an orthogonal set. We denote this -set as .

Example 2.1 ([3])

Let W = ℤ. We define the binary relation ⊦ on W as mn if there exists k ∈ ℤ such that m = kn. Furthermore, 0 ⊦ n for all n ∈ ℤ. Hence, (W, ⊦) is a -set.

Example 2.2 ([3])

Let and define μν if μν ∈ {μ, ν}. Subsequently, by setting μ0 = 0 or μ0 = 1, is an -set.

Now, we provide the concepts of an -sequence, an -continuous mapping, an -complete metric like space, an -preserving mapping and a weakly -preserving mapping.

Definition 2.3 ([3])

Let be an -set. A sequence {νι} is called an orthogonal sequence ( -sequence) if

(ιN,wιwι+1)         or         (ιN,wι+1wι).

Definition 2.4 ([3])

The triplet is called an orthogonal metric, such as space, if is an -set and is a metric-like space.

Definition 2.5 ([3])

Let be an orthogonal metric-like space. Then, a mapping is said to be orthogonally continuous in if, for each -sequence {νι} in with νιν as ι → ∞, we have D(νι) → D(ν) as ι → ∞. In addition, D is said to be ⊦-continuous in if D is ⊦-continuous in each .

Example 2.3

Let with ⊤(μ, ν) = |μ – ν| for all μ, . Define orthogonal relation ⊦-by μ ⊦-νμν ∈ max{μ, ν}. We define as:

D(μ)={1,μ4μ4μ>4.

Thus, D is ⊦-contraction with (μ)=eμ.

Definition 2.6 ([3])

Let be an orthogonal metric-like space. Then, is said to be orthogonally complete if every Cauchy -sequence converges.

Definition 2.7 ([3])

Let be a -set. A mapping is said to be ⊦-preserving if whenever νμ. In addition, is said to be weakly ⊦-preserving if D(ν) ⊦ D(μ) or D(μ) ⊦ D(μ) when νμ.

In this study, we modify the concepts of modified ℱ-contraction mapping of type-I, type-II to orthogonal sets and prove certain fixed-point theorems for modified ℱ-contraction mapping of type-I, type-II in orthogonality complete metric-like spaces.

In this section, inspired by the notions of modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, type-II and an orthogonal set, we introduce a new modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, type-II and prove the fixed points for these contraction mappings in an orthogonal metric-like space.

Definition 3.1

Let be an orthogonal metric-like space. A map is said to be an orthogonal modified ℱ-contraction mapping of type-I on if there exists ℱ ∈ ϒ and l > 0 such that the following condition holds:

ν,μJwith         νμ[(Dν,Dμ)>0,12(ν,Dn)<(ν,μ)         l+((Dν,Dμ))q((ν,μ))         +r((ν,Dν))s((μ,Dμ))],

where s ∈ [0, 1) and q, r ∈ [0, 1] are real numbers, such that q + r + s = 1.

From the above Definition 3.1, if we consider q = 1 and r = s = 0; we obtain the following definition:

Definition 3.2

Let be an orthogonal metric-like space. Mapping is said to be an orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-II if there exist ℱ ∈ ϒ and l > 0, such that the following condition holds:

ν,μJwithνμ[(Dν,Dμ)>0,12(ν,Dν)<(ν,μ)l+((Dν,Dμ))((ν,μ))].

First, we provide the fixed-point theorem for orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I in an -complete metric-like space.

Theorem 3.1

Let be an -complete metric-like space with an orthogonal element ν0 and a mapping . Suppose there exists ℱ ∈ ϒ and l > 0 such that the following conditions hold:

  • (i) D is ⊦-preserving,

  • (ii) D is orthogonal modified ℱ-contraction of type-I.

Thus, D has a unique fixed point .

Proof

Because is an -set,

ν0J:(νJ,νν0)         or         (νJ,ν0ν).

It follows that ν00 or 0ν0. Let

ν1:=Dν0,ν2:=Dν1=D2ν0,,νι+1:=Dνι=Dι+1ν0,

for all . If there exists such that ⊤(νι0, νι0+1) = 0, then ß = νι0 is the desired fixed point of D, which completes the proof. Consequently, we assume 0 < ⊤(νι, νι+1) for all . Because D is ⊦-preserving ν, we have

νινι+1         or         νι+1νι,

for all . This implies that {νι} is a -sequence. We have

12(νι,νι)=12(νι,Dνι+1)<(νι,νι+1)         for all ιN.

Because D is an orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, we have

l+((Dνι,Dνι+1))q((νι,νι+1))+r((νι,Dνι))+s((νι+1,Dνι+1)),

and hence

l+(1-s)((νι+1,νι+2))(q+r)((νι),νι+1).

As q + r + s = 1. We obtain

((νι+1,νι+2))((νι,νι+1))-lq+r<((νι,νι+1)).

Thus, from (ℱ1), we conclude that

(νι+1,νι+2)<(νι,νι+1)ιN.

Therefore, ⊤(νι, νι+1) is a decreasing sequence of real numbers bounded below. This implies ⊤(νι, νι+1) converges and

limιηι=r=inf{((νι,νι+1):ιN}.

We demonstrate that r = 0. Suppose, contrarily r > 0. For every ε > 0 there exists such that

(νk,Dνk)<r+ɛ.

Hence, from (ℱ1) we obtain

((νk,Dνk)<(r+ɛ).

However, from Eq. (3), we have

12(νk,Dνk)<(νk,Dνk).

Because D is an orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, we obtain

l+((Dνk,D2νk))q((νk,Dνk))+r((νk,Dνk))+s((Dνk,D2νk)),

which is equivalent to

l+(1-s)((Dνk,D2νk))<(q+r)((νk,Dνk)).

Consequently, we derive the following:

((Dνk,D2νk))<((νk,Dνk))-lq+r,

as q + r + s = 1. Based on Eq. (3), we have

12(νk,D2νk)<(νk,D2νk).

Because D is an orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, we have

l+((D2νk,D3νk))q((Dνk,D2νk))+r((Dνk,D2νk))+s((D2νk,D3νk)),

which yields

l+(1-s)((D2νk,D3νk))(q+r)((Dνk,D2νk)).

Because q + r + s = 1, we have

((D2νk,D3νk))((Dνk,D2νk))-lq+r.

Now, using Eq. (6) and continuing the same way as in the derivation of Eqs. (7) and (8), we deduce that

((D2νk,Dι+1νk))((Dινk,Dι-1νk))-lq+r((Dι-1νk,Dι-2νk))-2lq+r((Dνk,νk))-ιlq+r<(r+ɛ)-ιlq+r.

This implies

limι((Dινk,Dι+1νk))=-.

From (ℱ2)

limι((Dινk,Dι+1νk))=0,

and there exists such that for all ιN1. Therefore, from Eq. (1), we obtain . This contradicts the definition of R given in Eq. (5). Next, we obtain r = 0 and from Eq. (5), we conclude that

limι(νι,νι+1)=0.

In the next step, we obtain

limι(νι,νk)=0.

Suppose there exists ε > 0 and sequences {a(ι)} and {b(ι)} of natural numbers such that

a(ι)>b(ι)>ι,   (νa(ι),νb(ι))ɛ,(νa(ι)-1,νb(ι))<ɛ,for all ιN.

Using triangular inequality, we have

ɛ(νa(ι),νb(ι))(νa(ι),νa(ι)-1)+(νa(ι)-1,νb(ι))(νa(ι),νa(ι)-1)<ɛ=(νa(ι)-1,Dνa(ι)-1)+ɛ,   ιN.

If follows from Eqs. (9), (12), and squeezing the theorem that

limt(νa(ι),νb(ι))=ɛ.

From Eqs. (9),(12), and (13), there exists such that

12(νa(ι),Dνa(ι))<12ɛ<ɛ(νa(ι),νb(ι))<2ɛ,ιN2.

Hence, from Eq. (14), (ℱ1) and the hypothesis of the theroem, we have

l+((Dνa(ι),Dνb(ι)))q((νa(ι),νb(ι)))+r((νa(ι),Dννa(ι)))+s((νb(ι),Dνb(ι)))q(2ɛ)+r((νa(ι),Dνa(ι)))+s((νb(ι),Dνb(ι)),ι>N2.

From Eq. (9) and (ℱ2) it follows that

limι((Dνa(ι),Dνb(ι)))=-,

and thus, we obtain

limι((Dνa(ι),Dνb(ι)))=0limι(νa(ι)+1,Dνb(ι)+1)=0.

However, this contradicts the relationship in Eq. (12). Hence,

limι,j(νι,νj)=0.

Therefore, {νι} is the Cauchy sequence in . From the completeness of there exists such that

(ß,ß)=limι(νι,ß)=limι,j(νι,νj)=0.

Subsequently, we prove that for every ,

12(νι,Dνι)<(νι,ß),or 12(Dνι,D2νι)<(Dνι,ß),

. By contradiction, we assume that there exists such that

12(νj,Dνj)(νj,ß),or 12(Dνj,D2νj)(Dνj,ß).

From Eq. (7) and (ℱ1), we obtain

(Dνj,D2νj)<(νj,Dνj).

It follows from Eqs. (17) and (18) that:

(νj,DνJ)(νj,ß)+(ß,Dνj)12(νj,Dνj)+12(Dνj,D2νj)<12(νj,Dνj)+12(νj,Dνj)=(νj,Dνj).

Evidently, this is a contradiction. Hence, inequality (16) is satisfied. Regarding the assumption of the theorem, Eq. (16) implies that

l+((Dνι,Dß))q((νι,ß))+r((νι,Dνι))+s((ß,Dß)),

or

l+((D2νι,Dß))q((Dνι,ß))+r((Dνι,D2νι))+s((ß,Dß)),ιN.

In the first case, because of (ℱ2) the limits in Eqs. (9) and (15) we get

limι((ν(ι),ß))=-,limι(ν(ι),Dν(ι))=-.

Thus, substituting ι → ∞ in Eq. (19), we obtain

limι((Dν(ι),Dß))=-.

Again, from (ℱ2), we observe that

limι(Dν(ι),Dß)=0.

However, from Eq. (1), we have

(ß,Dß)(ß,Dνι)+(Dνι,Dß)=(ß,νι+1)+(Dνι,Dß).

It follows from Eqs. (15) and (21) that ⊤(ß, Dß) = 0. Therefore ß = Dß.

In the second case from Eq. (1), we have

((D2νι,Dt))<l+((D2νι,Dß))q((Dνι,ß))+r((Dνι,D2νι))+s((ß,Dß))q((Dνι+1,ß))+r((Dνι+1,Dνι+1))+s((ß,Dß)).

Then, by employing Eqs. (9), (15), and (ℱ2), we conclude that

limι((D2νι,Dß))=-.

Similarly, from (ℱ2) we obtain

limι(D2νι,Dß)=0.

Using Eq. (9), we obtain

(ß,Dß)(ß,D2νι)+(D2νι,Dß)=(ß,νι+2)+(D2νι,Dß).

Finally, from Eqs. (15) and (22), it follows that ⊤(ß, Dß) = 0; thus, ß = Dß. Hence, ß is a fixed point on D.

We prove that D has a unique fixed point in .

Let be two fixed points of D and suppose that Dιß = ß ≠ ϕ = Dιϕ, . By selecting ν0 we obtain

(ν0ßand ν0ϕ)or(ν0ϕ         ν0ß).

Because D is ⊦-preserving ν, we have

(Dιν0Dιßand Dιν0Dιϕ),or (Dιν0Dιϕand Dιν0Dιß),ιN.

Now

(ß,ϕ)=(Dιß,Dιϕ)(Dιß,Dιν0)+(Dιν0,Dιϕ).

As ι → ∞, we obtain ⊤(ß, ϕ) ≤ 0. Therefore, ß = ϕ. Hence, D has a unique fixed point in .

Now, we provide the fixed-point theorem for orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-II in an -complete metriclike space.

Theorem 3.2

Let be an orthogonal complete metric-like space and D be an orthogonal modified ℱ-contraction of type-II. Then, D has a unique fixed point , that is, Dß = ß.

Proof

It is sufficient to consider that q = 1 and r = s = 0 in Theorem 3.1.

Example 3.3

Let and let be defined by

(ı,ȷ)=max{ı,ȷ}

We define ⊦ on by ı ⊦ u if ı, ȷ ≥ 0. Then, it can be proved that is an -complete, metric-like space. We define mapping as

D(ı)={ı4,ı[0,1),16,ı=1.

Clearly, D is ⊦-preserving and ⊦-continuous. We define the function F(r) = lnr for r ∈ ℝ+ and obtain

+((Dı,Dȷ))((ı,ȷ))ln ((ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)),

for all ı, . First, we observe the following:

(Dı,Dȷ)>0,12(ı,Dı)<(ı,ȷ){(ı=1and ȷ[0,1])(ı<1and ȷ=1)(ı<ȷ<1)(ȷı<1)}.

For ı = 1 and ȷ ∈ [0, 1], we have ⊤(ı, ȷ) = ⊤(1, ȷ) = 1 and

(Dı,Dȷ)=(16,Dȷ)={16,ȷ[0,12],16,ȷ(12,1),16,ȷ=1.

Hence, we obtain

(ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)={6,ȷ[0,12],6ȷ,u(12,1,)6,ȷ=1.

For ı < 1 and ȷ = 1, we have ⊤(ı, ȷ) = ⊤ (ı, 1) = 1 and

(Dı,Dȷ)=(Dı,16)={16,ı[0,12],16,ı(12,1].

Hence, we get

(ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)={6,ı[0,12]6ı,ı(12,1).

For ı < ȷ < 1, we have ⊤(ı, ȷ) = ȷ and (Dı,Dȷ)=(ı4,ȷ4)=ȷ4. Hence, we get

(ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)=4.

For ȷ ≤ ı < 1, we have ⊤(ı, ȷ) = ı and (Dı,Dȷ)=(ı4,u4)=ı4. Hence, we get

(ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)=4.

From Eqs. (23)(26), we can obtain that if 0 < ℓ ≤ ln 4, then ln ((ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)). Thus,

+((Dı,Dȷ))((ı,ȷ)).

Therefore, D satisfies the conditions of Theorem 3.2 with 0 < ℓ ≤ ln 4. Hence, all required hypotheses of Theorem 3.2 are satisfied. Therefore, D has a unique fixed point.

Let , Let be the set of all real-valued continuous functions in domain . The following integral equation is considered

ζ(v)=0Ξ(v,β)Ω(β,ζ(β))dβ,v[0,],

where

  • (a) is continuous;

  • (b) is continuous and measurable at

  • (c) Ξ(v, β) ≥ 0, and 0Ξ(v,β)dβ1, .

Theorem 4.1

Assume that the conditions (a) (c) hold. Suppose there exists ≀ > 0 such that

Ω(v,ζ(v))+Ω(v,ξ(v))e-(ζ(v)+ξ(v)),

for each vM and for all . Thus, the integral equation (27) has a unique solution in .

Proof

Let . The orthogonality relation ⊦ on is defined as

ζξζ(ß)ξ(ß)ζ(ß)orζ(ß)ξ(ß)ξ(ß)ßM.

We define the mapping as

(ζ,ξ)=ζ(v)+ξ(v).

for all . Thus, is a metric-like space and a complete metric-like space. We define as:

Dζ(v)=0Ξ(v,β)Ω(β,ζ(v)),v[0,].

Now, we show that D is ⊦-preserving. For each with ζξ and ß ∈ I, we have

Dζ(v)=0Ξ(v,β)Ω(β,ζ(v))1.

It follows that [()(ß)][()(ß)]≥()(ß) and thus, ()(ß) ⊦ ()(ß). Then, D is ⊦-preserving.

Next, we claim that D is an orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-II. Let with ζξ. We assume that D(ζ) ≠ D(ξ). For every v ∈ [0, ℋ], we have

(Dζ,Dξ)=Dζ(v)+Dξ(v)=0Ξ(v,β)(Ω(β,ζ(β))+Ω(β,ξ(β)))dβ0Ξ(v,β)(Ω(β,ζ(β))+Ω(β,ξ(β)))dβ0Ξ(v,β)e-(ζ(v)+ξ(v))dβe-(ξ(v)+ξ(v))0Ξ(v,β)dβe-(ξ(v)+ξ(v))=e-(ζ,ξ).

Therefore,

+ln((Dζ,Dξ))ln ((ζ,ξ)).

Considering ℱ(v) = ln(v), we obtain

+((Dζ,Dξ))((ζ,ξ)),

for all . Therefore, according to Theorem 3.2, D has a unique fixed point. Hence, there exists a unique solution for Eq. (27).

In this study, we proved fixed-point theorems for orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, type-II on an -complete metric-like space.

Abstract

This study introduces the concepts of orthogonally modified F-contraction of type-I and type-II and certain fixed-point theorems for self-mapping in orthogonal metrics, such as space, have been proved. The proven results generalize and extend some well-known results in the literature. The application of the main results has been presented.

Keywords: Orthogonal set, Orthogonally modified F-contraction of type-I, Type-II, Fixed point

1. Introduction

As a generalization of the metric space, by introducing the concept of metric-like space in 2000, Hitzler and Seda [1] provided a valuable contribution to the fixed point theory, permitting self-distance to be non-zero, as it cannot be possible in metric space. They studied the metric-like space under the name of “Dislocated metric space,” and Amini-Harandi [2] reintroduced the dislocated metric space by a new name known as metric-like space.

The concept of an orthogonal set has many applications in several branches of mathematics and several types of orthogonalities [35]. Wardowski [6] introduced a new concept of contraction and proved the fixed-point theorem, which is the generalized Banach contraction principle. Nazam et al. [7] proved fixed-point problems for generalized contractions. Alsulami et al. [8] introduced fixed points of modified ℱ-contractive mapping in complete metric-like spaces. Orthogonal contractive-type mappings have been studied by many authors, and important results have been obtained by [911]. In this paper, we introduce a new orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, type-II and prove the fixed point on an orthogonal-complete metric, such as space.

2. Preliminaries

Throughout this paper, we use , ℝ+, and to denote the non-empty set, the set of positive real numbers, the set of positive integers, and the set of non-negative integers, respectively.

First, we recall the concept of the control function introduced by Wardowski [6]. Let ϒ denote the family of all functions ℱ: ℝ+ → ℝ that satisfy the following properties:

(ℱ1) ℱ is strictly non-decreasing;

(ℱ2) for every sequence {ηι} of non-negative numbers, we have

limιηι=0limιF(ηι)=-α

In 2012, Amini-Harandi [12] introduced the concept of metric-type space as follows:

Definition 2.1 ([12])

Let be a non-empty set. A function is said to be metric-like (dislocated) on , if for all , the following conditions hold:

  • (⊤1) ⊤(ν,μ) = 0 ⇒ ν = μ,

  • (⊤2) ⊤(ν,μ) = ⊤(μ,ν),

  • (⊤3) ⊤(ν,μ) ≤ ⊤(ν,ß) + ⊤(ß,μ),

Then, pair is said to be a metric-like (or dislocated) space.

In 2015, Alsulami et al. [8] introduced the notions of modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, type-II and proved the existence and uniqueness of a fixed-point theorem. Furthermore, Gordji et al. [3] introduced the concept of an orthogonal set (or -set), and some examples and properties of the orthogonal sets are as follows:

Definition 2.2 ([3])

Let and be binary relations. If ⊦ satisfies the following condition:

w0J:(wJ,ww0)         or         (wJ,w0w),

Thus, it is known as an orthogonal set. We denote this -set as .

Example 2.1 ([3])

Let W = ℤ. We define the binary relation ⊦ on W as mn if there exists k ∈ ℤ such that m = kn. Furthermore, 0 ⊦ n for all n ∈ ℤ. Hence, (W, ⊦) is a -set.

Example 2.2 ([3])

Let and define μν if μν ∈ {μ, ν}. Subsequently, by setting μ0 = 0 or μ0 = 1, is an -set.

Now, we provide the concepts of an -sequence, an -continuous mapping, an -complete metric like space, an -preserving mapping and a weakly -preserving mapping.

Definition 2.3 ([3])

Let be an -set. A sequence {νι} is called an orthogonal sequence ( -sequence) if

(ιN,wιwι+1)         or         (ιN,wι+1wι).

Definition 2.4 ([3])

The triplet is called an orthogonal metric, such as space, if is an -set and is a metric-like space.

Definition 2.5 ([3])

Let be an orthogonal metric-like space. Then, a mapping is said to be orthogonally continuous in if, for each -sequence {νι} in with νιν as ι → ∞, we have D(νι) → D(ν) as ι → ∞. In addition, D is said to be ⊦-continuous in if D is ⊦-continuous in each .

Example 2.3

Let with ⊤(μ, ν) = |μ – ν| for all μ, . Define orthogonal relation ⊦-by μ ⊦-νμν ∈ max{μ, ν}. We define as:

D(μ)={1,μ4μ4μ>4.

Thus, D is ⊦-contraction with (μ)=eμ.

Definition 2.6 ([3])

Let be an orthogonal metric-like space. Then, is said to be orthogonally complete if every Cauchy -sequence converges.

Definition 2.7 ([3])

Let be a -set. A mapping is said to be ⊦-preserving if whenever νμ. In addition, is said to be weakly ⊦-preserving if D(ν) ⊦ D(μ) or D(μ) ⊦ D(μ) when νμ.

In this study, we modify the concepts of modified ℱ-contraction mapping of type-I, type-II to orthogonal sets and prove certain fixed-point theorems for modified ℱ-contraction mapping of type-I, type-II in orthogonality complete metric-like spaces.

3. Main Results

In this section, inspired by the notions of modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, type-II and an orthogonal set, we introduce a new modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, type-II and prove the fixed points for these contraction mappings in an orthogonal metric-like space.

Definition 3.1

Let be an orthogonal metric-like space. A map is said to be an orthogonal modified ℱ-contraction mapping of type-I on if there exists ℱ ∈ ϒ and l > 0 such that the following condition holds:

ν,μJwith         νμ[(Dν,Dμ)>0,12(ν,Dn)<(ν,μ)         l+((Dν,Dμ))q((ν,μ))         +r((ν,Dν))s((μ,Dμ))],

where s ∈ [0, 1) and q, r ∈ [0, 1] are real numbers, such that q + r + s = 1.

From the above Definition 3.1, if we consider q = 1 and r = s = 0; we obtain the following definition:

Definition 3.2

Let be an orthogonal metric-like space. Mapping is said to be an orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-II if there exist ℱ ∈ ϒ and l > 0, such that the following condition holds:

ν,μJwithνμ[(Dν,Dμ)>0,12(ν,Dν)<(ν,μ)l+((Dν,Dμ))((ν,μ))].

First, we provide the fixed-point theorem for orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I in an -complete metric-like space.

Theorem 3.1

Let be an -complete metric-like space with an orthogonal element ν0 and a mapping . Suppose there exists ℱ ∈ ϒ and l > 0 such that the following conditions hold:

  • (i) D is ⊦-preserving,

  • (ii) D is orthogonal modified ℱ-contraction of type-I.

Thus, D has a unique fixed point .

Proof

Because is an -set,

ν0J:(νJ,νν0)         or         (νJ,ν0ν).

It follows that ν00 or 0ν0. Let

ν1:=Dν0,ν2:=Dν1=D2ν0,,νι+1:=Dνι=Dι+1ν0,

for all . If there exists such that ⊤(νι0, νι0+1) = 0, then ß = νι0 is the desired fixed point of D, which completes the proof. Consequently, we assume 0 < ⊤(νι, νι+1) for all . Because D is ⊦-preserving ν, we have

νινι+1         or         νι+1νι,

for all . This implies that {νι} is a -sequence. We have

12(νι,νι)=12(νι,Dνι+1)<(νι,νι+1)         for all ιN.

Because D is an orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, we have

l+((Dνι,Dνι+1))q((νι,νι+1))+r((νι,Dνι))+s((νι+1,Dνι+1)),

and hence

l+(1-s)((νι+1,νι+2))(q+r)((νι),νι+1).

As q + r + s = 1. We obtain

((νι+1,νι+2))((νι,νι+1))-lq+r<((νι,νι+1)).

Thus, from (ℱ1), we conclude that

(νι+1,νι+2)<(νι,νι+1)ιN.

Therefore, ⊤(νι, νι+1) is a decreasing sequence of real numbers bounded below. This implies ⊤(νι, νι+1) converges and

limιηι=r=inf{((νι,νι+1):ιN}.

We demonstrate that r = 0. Suppose, contrarily r > 0. For every ε > 0 there exists such that

(νk,Dνk)<r+ɛ.

Hence, from (ℱ1) we obtain

((νk,Dνk)<(r+ɛ).

However, from Eq. (3), we have

12(νk,Dνk)<(νk,Dνk).

Because D is an orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, we obtain

l+((Dνk,D2νk))q((νk,Dνk))+r((νk,Dνk))+s((Dνk,D2νk)),

which is equivalent to

l+(1-s)((Dνk,D2νk))<(q+r)((νk,Dνk)).

Consequently, we derive the following:

((Dνk,D2νk))<((νk,Dνk))-lq+r,

as q + r + s = 1. Based on Eq. (3), we have

12(νk,D2νk)<(νk,D2νk).

Because D is an orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, we have

l+((D2νk,D3νk))q((Dνk,D2νk))+r((Dνk,D2νk))+s((D2νk,D3νk)),

which yields

l+(1-s)((D2νk,D3νk))(q+r)((Dνk,D2νk)).

Because q + r + s = 1, we have

((D2νk,D3νk))((Dνk,D2νk))-lq+r.

Now, using Eq. (6) and continuing the same way as in the derivation of Eqs. (7) and (8), we deduce that

((D2νk,Dι+1νk))((Dινk,Dι-1νk))-lq+r((Dι-1νk,Dι-2νk))-2lq+r((Dνk,νk))-ιlq+r<(r+ɛ)-ιlq+r.

This implies

limι((Dινk,Dι+1νk))=-.

From (ℱ2)

limι((Dινk,Dι+1νk))=0,

and there exists such that for all ιN1. Therefore, from Eq. (1), we obtain . This contradicts the definition of R given in Eq. (5). Next, we obtain r = 0 and from Eq. (5), we conclude that

limι(νι,νι+1)=0.

In the next step, we obtain

limι(νι,νk)=0.

Suppose there exists ε > 0 and sequences {a(ι)} and {b(ι)} of natural numbers such that

a(ι)>b(ι)>ι,   (νa(ι),νb(ι))ɛ,(νa(ι)-1,νb(ι))<ɛ,for all ιN.

Using triangular inequality, we have

ɛ(νa(ι),νb(ι))(νa(ι),νa(ι)-1)+(νa(ι)-1,νb(ι))(νa(ι),νa(ι)-1)<ɛ=(νa(ι)-1,Dνa(ι)-1)+ɛ,   ιN.

If follows from Eqs. (9), (12), and squeezing the theorem that

limt(νa(ι),νb(ι))=ɛ.

From Eqs. (9),(12), and (13), there exists such that

12(νa(ι),Dνa(ι))<12ɛ<ɛ(νa(ι),νb(ι))<2ɛ,ιN2.

Hence, from Eq. (14), (ℱ1) and the hypothesis of the theroem, we have

l+((Dνa(ι),Dνb(ι)))q((νa(ι),νb(ι)))+r((νa(ι),Dννa(ι)))+s((νb(ι),Dνb(ι)))q(2ɛ)+r((νa(ι),Dνa(ι)))+s((νb(ι),Dνb(ι)),ι>N2.

From Eq. (9) and (ℱ2) it follows that

limι((Dνa(ι),Dνb(ι)))=-,

and thus, we obtain

limι((Dνa(ι),Dνb(ι)))=0limι(νa(ι)+1,Dνb(ι)+1)=0.

However, this contradicts the relationship in Eq. (12). Hence,

limι,j(νι,νj)=0.

Therefore, {νι} is the Cauchy sequence in . From the completeness of there exists such that

(ß,ß)=limι(νι,ß)=limι,j(νι,νj)=0.

Subsequently, we prove that for every ,

12(νι,Dνι)<(νι,ß),or 12(Dνι,D2νι)<(Dνι,ß),

. By contradiction, we assume that there exists such that

12(νj,Dνj)(νj,ß),or 12(Dνj,D2νj)(Dνj,ß).

From Eq. (7) and (ℱ1), we obtain

(Dνj,D2νj)<(νj,Dνj).

It follows from Eqs. (17) and (18) that:

(νj,DνJ)(νj,ß)+(ß,Dνj)12(νj,Dνj)+12(Dνj,D2νj)<12(νj,Dνj)+12(νj,Dνj)=(νj,Dνj).

Evidently, this is a contradiction. Hence, inequality (16) is satisfied. Regarding the assumption of the theorem, Eq. (16) implies that

l+((Dνι,Dß))q((νι,ß))+r((νι,Dνι))+s((ß,Dß)),

or

l+((D2νι,Dß))q((Dνι,ß))+r((Dνι,D2νι))+s((ß,Dß)),ιN.

In the first case, because of (ℱ2) the limits in Eqs. (9) and (15) we get

limι((ν(ι),ß))=-,limι(ν(ι),Dν(ι))=-.

Thus, substituting ι → ∞ in Eq. (19), we obtain

limι((Dν(ι),Dß))=-.

Again, from (ℱ2), we observe that

limι(Dν(ι),Dß)=0.

However, from Eq. (1), we have

(ß,Dß)(ß,Dνι)+(Dνι,Dß)=(ß,νι+1)+(Dνι,Dß).

It follows from Eqs. (15) and (21) that ⊤(ß, Dß) = 0. Therefore ß = Dß.

In the second case from Eq. (1), we have

((D2νι,Dt))<l+((D2νι,Dß))q((Dνι,ß))+r((Dνι,D2νι))+s((ß,Dß))q((Dνι+1,ß))+r((Dνι+1,Dνι+1))+s((ß,Dß)).

Then, by employing Eqs. (9), (15), and (ℱ2), we conclude that

limι((D2νι,Dß))=-.

Similarly, from (ℱ2) we obtain

limι(D2νι,Dß)=0.

Using Eq. (9), we obtain

(ß,Dß)(ß,D2νι)+(D2νι,Dß)=(ß,νι+2)+(D2νι,Dß).

Finally, from Eqs. (15) and (22), it follows that ⊤(ß, Dß) = 0; thus, ß = Dß. Hence, ß is a fixed point on D.

We prove that D has a unique fixed point in .

Let be two fixed points of D and suppose that Dιß = ß ≠ ϕ = Dιϕ, . By selecting ν0 we obtain

(ν0ßand ν0ϕ)or(ν0ϕ         ν0ß).

Because D is ⊦-preserving ν, we have

(Dιν0Dιßand Dιν0Dιϕ),or (Dιν0Dιϕand Dιν0Dιß),ιN.

Now

(ß,ϕ)=(Dιß,Dιϕ)(Dιß,Dιν0)+(Dιν0,Dιϕ).

As ι → ∞, we obtain ⊤(ß, ϕ) ≤ 0. Therefore, ß = ϕ. Hence, D has a unique fixed point in .

Now, we provide the fixed-point theorem for orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-II in an -complete metriclike space.

Theorem 3.2

Let be an orthogonal complete metric-like space and D be an orthogonal modified ℱ-contraction of type-II. Then, D has a unique fixed point , that is, Dß = ß.

Proof

It is sufficient to consider that q = 1 and r = s = 0 in Theorem 3.1.

Example 3.3

Let and let be defined by

(ı,ȷ)=max{ı,ȷ}

We define ⊦ on by ı ⊦ u if ı, ȷ ≥ 0. Then, it can be proved that is an -complete, metric-like space. We define mapping as

D(ı)={ı4,ı[0,1),16,ı=1.

Clearly, D is ⊦-preserving and ⊦-continuous. We define the function F(r) = lnr for r ∈ ℝ+ and obtain

+((Dı,Dȷ))((ı,ȷ))ln ((ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)),

for all ı, . First, we observe the following:

(Dı,Dȷ)>0,12(ı,Dı)<(ı,ȷ){(ı=1and ȷ[0,1])(ı<1and ȷ=1)(ı<ȷ<1)(ȷı<1)}.

For ı = 1 and ȷ ∈ [0, 1], we have ⊤(ı, ȷ) = ⊤(1, ȷ) = 1 and

(Dı,Dȷ)=(16,Dȷ)={16,ȷ[0,12],16,ȷ(12,1),16,ȷ=1.

Hence, we obtain

(ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)={6,ȷ[0,12],6ȷ,u(12,1,)6,ȷ=1.

For ı < 1 and ȷ = 1, we have ⊤(ı, ȷ) = ⊤ (ı, 1) = 1 and

(Dı,Dȷ)=(Dı,16)={16,ı[0,12],16,ı(12,1].

Hence, we get

(ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)={6,ı[0,12]6ı,ı(12,1).

For ı < ȷ < 1, we have ⊤(ı, ȷ) = ȷ and (Dı,Dȷ)=(ı4,ȷ4)=ȷ4. Hence, we get

(ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)=4.

For ȷ ≤ ı < 1, we have ⊤(ı, ȷ) = ı and (Dı,Dȷ)=(ı4,u4)=ı4. Hence, we get

(ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)=4.

From Eqs. (23)(26), we can obtain that if 0 < ℓ ≤ ln 4, then ln ((ı,ȷ)(Dı,Dȷ)). Thus,

+((Dı,Dȷ))((ı,ȷ)).

Therefore, D satisfies the conditions of Theorem 3.2 with 0 < ℓ ≤ ln 4. Hence, all required hypotheses of Theorem 3.2 are satisfied. Therefore, D has a unique fixed point.

4. Application

Let , Let be the set of all real-valued continuous functions in domain . The following integral equation is considered

ζ(v)=0Ξ(v,β)Ω(β,ζ(β))dβ,v[0,],

where

  • (a) is continuous;

  • (b) is continuous and measurable at

  • (c) Ξ(v, β) ≥ 0, and 0Ξ(v,β)dβ1, .

Theorem 4.1

Assume that the conditions (a) (c) hold. Suppose there exists ≀ > 0 such that

Ω(v,ζ(v))+Ω(v,ξ(v))e-(ζ(v)+ξ(v)),

for each vM and for all . Thus, the integral equation (27) has a unique solution in .

Proof

Let . The orthogonality relation ⊦ on is defined as

ζξζ(ß)ξ(ß)ζ(ß)orζ(ß)ξ(ß)ξ(ß)ßM.

We define the mapping as

(ζ,ξ)=ζ(v)+ξ(v).

for all . Thus, is a metric-like space and a complete metric-like space. We define as:

Dζ(v)=0Ξ(v,β)Ω(β,ζ(v)),v[0,].

Now, we show that D is ⊦-preserving. For each with ζξ and ß ∈ I, we have

Dζ(v)=0Ξ(v,β)Ω(β,ζ(v))1.

It follows that [()(ß)][()(ß)]≥()(ß) and thus, ()(ß) ⊦ ()(ß). Then, D is ⊦-preserving.

Next, we claim that D is an orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-II. Let with ζξ. We assume that D(ζ) ≠ D(ξ). For every v ∈ [0, ℋ], we have

(Dζ,Dξ)=Dζ(v)+Dξ(v)=0Ξ(v,β)(Ω(β,ζ(β))+Ω(β,ξ(β)))dβ0Ξ(v,β)(Ω(β,ζ(β))+Ω(β,ξ(β)))dβ0Ξ(v,β)e-(ζ(v)+ξ(v))dβe-(ξ(v)+ξ(v))0Ξ(v,β)dβe-(ξ(v)+ξ(v))=e-(ζ,ξ).

Therefore,

+ln((Dζ,Dξ))ln ((ζ,ξ)).

Considering ℱ(v) = ln(v), we obtain

+((Dζ,Dξ))((ζ,ξ)),

for all . Therefore, according to Theorem 3.2, D has a unique fixed point. Hence, there exists a unique solution for Eq. (27).

5. Conclusion

In this study, we proved fixed-point theorems for orthogonally modified ℱ-contraction of type-I, type-II on an -complete metric-like space.
