Abstract

Several novel uses of theorems for fixed points in commuting mapping in a fully metric domain are presented. Several conclusions from full metric fixed point theory are improved and extended by our work. Our proofs are inspired by the study of commuting mappings [B. Fisher and S. Sessa, on a fixed point theorem of Gregus, 1986] and [P. Sumati Kumari, Fixed and periodic point theory in certain spaces, 2013].

1. Introduction

The concept of a fixed point is essential to a number of different branches of mathematics. many fascinating and interesting branches of mathematics. The search for fixed points is under the purview of many subfields of analysis, such as classical analysis, operator theory, topology, functional analysis, topological algebra, and algebraic topology. Numerous fields make use of fixed-point theorems. different domains, including non-linear oscillations. Theoretical approximation, initial and boundary value difficulties, and the third flow for ordered and partial differential equations. In 1912, Brouwer [1] demonstrated that the mapping is continuous ζ in reference to the closed unit ball Rl space having at least one fixed point, which we’ll refer to as point z: a point where ζz=z. In 1922, mathematicians Birkhoff and Kellogg [2] developed the first theory of fixed points in infinite dimensions. Using Brouwer’s Birkhoff and Kellogg provided evidence for the existence of theorems in the theory of differential equations through their work on the fixed-point theorem. In the case where E is a convex compact set that exists in a normed vector space, Schaunder [3, 4] generalized Brouwer's fixed point theorem in 1927 and 1930, respectively. Tychnoff [5] was the first mathematician to generalize the Schaunder result from normed space to locally convex topological vector space considered by the authors in [35]. It was first proven in 1986 by Fisher and Sessa [6] that two self-maps have a fixed point if they are located on a convex subset of a Banach space. Refer to the work Sessa, [7] elaborated in which Das&Naik, [8] research was represented as a reference. Jungek [9] first generalized the Sessa concept to compatible mapping, and later to weakly compatible mapping (see [10]). Several authors have extended Jungek’s approach to produce coincidence point findings for various types of mapping on Fatus-proper metric spaces (see [11,12]). Some generalizations points of coincidental occurrence and popular fixed points in fixed point theory were shown to be false by Haghi et al. (2011) in which they could be produced immediately from the fixed-point theorems that are linked to it.

Jleli and Samet [13] were the ones who came up with the idea of a generalized metric space, which has subsequently been used to the process of recovering a number of different topological spaces. Metric, b-metric, displaced, and modular spaces are examples (see [16-24, 30]).

Using the E. A property on metric space, authors L. Wangwe and Santosh Kumar [25] studied the common fixed-point theorem under implicit contractive conditions. An arbitrary binary relation has been developed and applied to second-order differential equations with boundary conditions. In his study of fixed point and continuity for a pair of contractive maps, Santosh Kumar [26] applied the nonlinear Volterra Integral equation and provided multiple examples proving the existence and uniqueness of the solution. In TVS valued cone metric space, Lucus Wangwe and Santosh Kumar [27] have investigated to generalize and extend several fixed points results that illustrate the common fixed pints theorem for F-Kanan- Suzuki type mapping. Dur-e-Shehwar Sangheer et al. [28] have investigated a novel multi valued F- contraction mapping incorporating α- admissibility with applications, where they have proved on existence solution of integral equations. Recently authors Lucus Wangwe [29] proved the common fixed points theorem for interpolative rational type of contraction mapping in complex valued metric space with application in existence and uniqueness solution of R-L-C differential equation.

Definition [14]: Take the set F to be non-empty. Where m, n F and F,d be metric space. A mapping ξ:FF is said to be a generalized contraction if we find a positive real number δ1 satisfies the following conditions:

1
d(ξm, ξn)δ1max{dm, n, d m,ξm,dn, ξn, dm, ξn+dn, ξm}.

Known theorems: In 1979, Fisher [15] the following theorem.

Theorem: Let (R, d) be entire metric space, ξ and ζ are continuous functions (signals) of (R, d) into itself. Then both signals have a common stationary in the set R if only if we find a continuous signal F of R into ξRζ(R) commutes with two signals G and ζ meet certain requirements FRξRζ(R), dFm, Fnδd(ξm,ζn), where, m, n R, δ(0,1), in fact, G and ζ having a single point of agreement.

Let’s say that ξ, ζ, and F are three self-mapping of R satisfying the following constraints:

2
Fξ= ξF,
3
Fζ= ζF,
4
FRξFζF,

where ξ and ζ are continuous. For all m,nF we find a positive integer δ1 such that:

5
dFm, Fnδ1maxdξm, ζn,dξm, Fm, dζn,Fn, dξm, Fn, d ζn,Fm2.

Lemma: If F, ξ, and ζ are self-mapping of R satisfying when (2), (3), and (4) hold, then is what R calls a Cauchy sequence.

Proof: Let mo be a random number in R. Given that FR is encapsulated in ξ(R), we choose a special point m1 in R such that ξm1=Fmo.

Since F(R) is also contained in ζ(R), we choose another special point m2 in F such that ξm2=Fm1. In the same way, we choose a point mr such that ξmr=Fmr-1 when r is even.

Now we have to show that Fmr is a Cauchy sequence in R. Using the Eq. (5) we obtain:

6
dFm1, Fm2δ1maxdξm1, ζm2, dξm1, Fm2, dζm2,Fm2,dξm, Fn, dζn,Fm2
=δ1maxdFmo, Fm1, dFm1, Fm2, 12dFmo,Fm2.

Thus, we obtain d(Fm1, Fm2)d(Fmo, Fm1).

In the same way, we can easily obtain dFmr, Fmr+1δ1rd(Fmo, Fm1)Fmr for all r N, contains a Cauchy sequence in R.

Theorem 1: Allow a whole metric domain to map itself using F, ξ, and ζ If (2), (3), (4), and (6) hold, if this is the case, then F, ξ, and ζ all have a common fixed point.

Proof: Suppose mo is a chosen coordinate in R, and Fmr be a sequence satisfying all conditions of the given lemma. Then Fmr transforms into a Cauchy sequence. There is just one possible limit point for a convergent Cauchy sequence. Let us suppose that Fmrl. Since the sequences, ξm2r+1 and ζm2rare the subsequences of Fmr. We know that every subsequence of a convergent sequence has the same limit point. Thus, we have Gξl and ζm2rl as r .

Consequently, we write ζ(Fmr)ζl, ξFm2r+1ξl, ζ(ξm2r+1)ζl, and ξ(ζm2r)ξl. We consider:

dζFm2r,ξFm2r+1= dFζm2r,Fξm2r+1
δ1maxdξζm2r, ζξ m2r+1, dξζm2r , Fζ m2r,dζξm2r+1 , Fξm2r+1, dζξm2r, Fξm2r+1 ,12dζξm2r , Fξm2r+1,dFζm2r , ζξm2r+1.

Using r then dζl, ξlδ1maxdξl, ζl, dξl, ζl,dζl, ξl ζl=ξl.

Again, from the Eq. (5):

dζFm2r, Fl= dFζm2r, Fl,dξζm2r, ζl, dζl, Gl,12dξζm2r, Fl,dFζm2r,Fl.

Using , we get dζl, Fldζl, Flζl=Fl.

Thus, Fl=ζl =Gl.

Next, we consider:

dζm2r, Fl=dFm2r-1, Flmaxdξm2r-1, ζl, dξm2r-1, Fm2r-1, dζl, Fl, 12dξm2r-1, Fl,dFm2r-1,ζl .

Using r, we obtain dl,Flδ1 d(l, Fl) l =Fl.

At every condition, we have seen that l is a fixed point of ξ, F, and ζ.

Theorem 2: Assume the following about the compact metric space R,d: F, ξ, and ζ are all self-mappings satisfying:

7
dFm, Fn<maxdξ m , Fn, dξ n, ζ n, dζ n,Fm,dξ m, Fn+dζ n,Fm2,

for all m, n R and R.H. S of Eq. (7) is a positive number.

If the self-mapping F, ξ and ζ are continuous then they have a unique common fixed point.

Proof: Let us Let's pretend the answer to the right side of the problem is Eq. (7) is positive. Then we define a function η(m,n) be defined by:

ηm,n=d(Fm, Fn)maxdξm, Fm,dξm, ζm, dζn, Fn, 12dξ m, Fn+d ζn,Fm

is continuous real valued mapping on the compact metric space and attains a maximum value of δ. From the Eq. (7) we choose a number δ such that δ>0 and hence by using theorem 1, the mapping F, ξ and ζ have a single, unifying point of reference.

Let’s pretend the answer to Eq. (7) on the right is zero since m, n R.

Thus ξm=ζn=Fm=FnFξ m=F2m=ξFm.

If F2mFn then:

dF2m, Fn<maxdξFm, F2m, dξFm, ζn,dζn, Fn, 12dξFm, Fn+dζn,F2mdF2m, Fn<dF2m, Fn,

which gives a contradiction.

Thus, F2m=Fn=FFm=F(Fn). Fn=l is a constant value that F.

And ξl=ξFn=ξFm=Fξm=FFn=Fl=l, and ζl=ζFn=Fζn=FFn=Fl=l.

As a result, we can declare that l is the place where F, ξ, and ζ all meet.

Corollary 1: Let F and ζ be compact metric R,d mappings that commute into themselves such that:

dζn, Fn<maxdζm, ζn, dζm, Fm,dζn, Fn,dζm, Fn+d(ζn, Fm)2

holds for all m, n R for which its R.H.S. is non-negative.

If F(R)ζ(R), F and ζ is an extended result of the authors [15] and states that if two maps are continuous, then they must share a fixed point.

Corollary 2: Let F be a continuous function of a compact metric space (R, d) into itself such that:

dFm, Fn<maxdm, n, dm, Fm, dn, Fn,dm,Fn+d(n,Fm)2

holds for all m, nR for which its R. H.S. of above inequality is non-negative, if F has a shared fixed point, then. (This finding generalizes the author's previous findings; see [16]).

Corollary 3: If ζ a continuous function of a compact metric space R,d into itself which satisfy the following condition:

dm,n<maxdζm, ζn, dζm, m,dζn, n,dζm, n+d(ζn,m)2,

m, nR for which its R. H. S of its inequality is non-negative then the continuous mapping ζ has a unique fixed point.

Proof: If F be a continuous identity mapping and FRζ(R). With the help of corollary Eq. (2), we get our result.

Theorem 3: Let F, ξ, and ζ be self-mappings of a complete metric space which satisfy the following conditions:

1) Fζ=ζF, Fξ=ξF.

2) FRζa(R)ξb(R).

3) ξb and ζa are continuous.

4) Fc, ξb and ζa satisfy:

dFcm , Fcn<δ1maxdξbm , ζan, dξbm, Fcm, dζan,Fcn,dξbm, Fcn+dζan,Fcm2,

where, a and b are some positive integers and c> 0 Therefore, F, ξ, and ζ have a common fixed point.

Proof: Since F commutes with the mapping ξ and ζ, Fc commutes with ξb and ζa. Further Fc(R)FRξb(R). In the same line, we may write FcRζa(R).

Also, since Fc, ξb and ζa are continuous mapping then by using theorem 1, we find a point lR such that l=Fcl=ξbl=ζa l.

Also, ξaFl=Fξal=Fl=FFcl=Fc(Fl)Fl is a common fixed of ξb and Fc.

In the same line previous work, we define Fl as the fixed point in common between ζa and Fc.

By the definition of uniqueness of a point ll=Fl.

Let ξb+1l=ξl and ζal=ζl and if we substitute m=Fl and n=Fn in Eq. (5) we easily obtain ξl=ζl. ξl=ζl is also a common point for Fc, ξb and ζa.

Thus, by uniqueness of common fixed point l, we obtain l=Fl=ξl=ζl.

This result the extends the result of author [15].

Some Applications. If we slight change in our theorems then we can easily obtain same famous results of periodic point theory in certain spaces. For this, we study.

Definition 1: Assume ξ is a self-map of R, and mR and aN. If ξa m=m then m is known as periodic point of the function ξ.

Definition 2: Let mR, a, bN, and ξ and ζ are both self mappings of acomplete setric space (R, d). If ξa m=ζam=m then a given point m is known as common periodic point of our function ξ and ζ.

Definition 3: Given a non-empty set R, we say that m, n, lR. A metric for a collection that is not empty as a function, Rd:R×R[0, ) such that:

1) dl, l=0.

2) dl,m= dm, l= 0m=l.

3) dl, m=d(m, l).

4) dl,mdl, n+d(n, m).

Theorem 4: Let ξ and ζ are continuous functions of complete metric space (R, d) satisfying:

8
dξb, ζan<maxdm,n, dξbm, m+d(ζan,n)2, dζan, m+dξbm, n2,

for all m, n R ( mn) in which R.H. S. of Eq. (8) is non-zero and a, b N. Then rR is common periodic of mappings ξ and ζ point if and only if r is the single fixed point in both mappings.

Proof: It is obvious that only any periodic point is referred to as a fixed point. For conversely, we put ξb=L and ζa=M in our Eq. (8) then we have:

dLm , M n<maxdm,n, dLm, m+d(n, Mn)2, dMn,l+ d(n, Lm)2.

Setting a=b= 1 in the theorem Eq. (8) we represent the following is an illustration.

Let R=[0, 1) and dm, n=m-n. Let G, ζ:RR by Gm=m/3 and ζm=0.

The value 0 is the only common fixed point that exists. 0 is the unique common periodic point.

Here ξ and ζ satisfy the aforementioned inequality, and verification may be obtained by looking at the following:

1) m=0, 0<n<1 L.H.S. = 0 and R. H. S. =n.

2) n=0, 0<m<1, L.H.S = m/3 and R. H. S. = m.

3) for 1>n>m>0 (or for 1>m>n>0) we obtain L.H.S and R.H.S. = maxm-n, 2m+n/3,m+n+m3/2.

Thus L.H.S. = m/3< 2m/3+n2 R.H.S.

The self-mappings ξ and ζ satisfy above inequality when a= 2 and b= 3.

Theorem 5: Let ξ and ζ are continuous function of complete metric space (R, d) satisfying:

9
dξbm , ζan<maxdm, n, dξbm , m+dζan, n2, dζan, m+dξbm , n2,

for all m, nR (mn) in which R.H.S. of Eq. (9) is non- zero and a, bN. Then rR is r is common periodic point of mappings if and only if r is considered to be the common fixed point of mappings ξ and ζ.

Proof: If we put b=a in the given theorem Eq. (8), we easily obtain above theorem 5.

Theorem 6: Consider the function ξ which is continuous mapping from a complete metric space R,d into itself satisfying:

10
dξbm, ξan<maxdm, n, dξbm, m+d(ξan , n)2, dξbm, n+d(ξan ,m)2 ,

for all m, nR mn and a, bN in which R.H.S of Eq. (10) is non-negative numbers. Then rR is unique fixed point of the function the function ξ if u is a periodic point of the function ξ.

Proof: If we put ζ=ξ in Eq. (8), we can readily establish theorem Eq. (10).

Theorem 7: Let ξ be a continuous function a complete metric space (R, d) into itself satisfying:

11
dξbm , ξbn<maxdm, n, dξbm , m+dξbn, n2, dξbn, m+dξbm , n2,

for all m, n R (mn) and bN in which R.H S of Eq. (11) is non-negative numbers. Then rR is unique fixed point of the function ξ if and only if r is the periodic point of function ξ.

Proof: Put a=b in theorem Eq. (10), we get the proof of the theorem 7.
