Best Proximity Point Results for Generalization of α ̌–η ̌ Proximal Contractive Mapping in Fuzzy Banach Spaces

Abstract

<p>The best proximity point is a generalization of a fixed point that is beneficial when the contraction map is not a self-map. On other hand, best approximation theorems provide an approximate solution to the fixed-point equation Tҳ = ҳ. It is used to solve the problem to determine an approximate solution that is optimum. The main goal of this paper is to present new types of proximal contraction for nonself mappings in a fuzzy Banach space. At first, the notion of the best proximity point is presented. We introduce the notion of α ̌–η ̌-β ̌ proximal contractive. After that, the best proximity point theorem for such type of mappings in a fuzzy Banach space is proved. In addition, the concept of α ̌–η ̌-φ ̌ proximal contractive mapping is presented in a fuzzy Banach space and under specific conditions, the best proximity point theorem for such type of mapping is proved. Additionally, some examples are supplied to show the results' applicability.</p>
