Abstract

In this manuscript, we aim to provide a new hybrid type contraction that is a combination of a Jaggi type contraction and interpolative type contraction in the framework of complete metric spaces. We investigate the existence and uniqueness of such a hybrid contraction in separate theorems. We consider a solution to certain fractional differential equations as an application of the given results. In addition, we provide an example to indicate the genuineness of the given results.

  • In 1837, Liouville [1] solved such differential equations by employing the method of successive approximations which implicitly brings a solution for thefixed point equation

Summary

Introduction and Preliminaries

Banach [3] was able to derive the abstraction of the method of successive approximation so that he proved a celebrated fixed point theorem in the framework of a complete metric space. After that, this outstanding result from Banach was characterized by Caccioppoli [4] in the context of complete metric spaces: Every contraction in a complete metric space possesses a unique fixed point. Fractional calculus and fractional differential equations have been studied intensely By taking this observation into account, as a second aim, we propose a solution to certain fractional differential equations by employing our main results.
