Abstract

AbstractIn this paper we establish some best proximity point results using generalized weak contractions with discontinuous control functions. The theorems are established in metric spaces with a partial order. We view the main problem in the paper as a problem of finding an optimal approximate solution of a fixed point equation. We also discuss several corollaries and give an illustrative example. We apply our result to obtain some coupled best proximity point results.

Summary

Introduction

Introduction and mathematical preliminariesIn this work we consider a problem of global optimization in the context of partially ordered metric spaces. Through a best proximity point result we obtain the global minima of the real valued function x → d(x, Tx) by constraining an approximate solution of x = Tx to satisfy d(x, Tx) = dist(A, B). In the proximity point problems, there are several uses of functions satisfying contraction conditions as, for instances, in [ – ].
