Abstract

In the present paper, we refine the notion of the partial modular metric defined by Hosseinzadeh and Parvaneh to eliminate the occurrence of discrepancies in the non-zero self-distance and triangular inequality. In support of this, we discuss non-trivial examples. Finally, we prove a common fixed-point theorem for four self-mappings in partial modular metric space and an application to our result; the existence of a solution for a system of Volterra integral equations is discussed.

Highlights

  • In 1992, Matthews [1] initiated the idea of non-zero self-distance by introducing the notion of the partial metric as a part of the study of the denotational semantics of data flow programming languages in a topological model in computer sciences and extended Banach’s contraction principle [2] in such space

  • In 2006, Chistyakov [13] introduced the notion of the metric modular on an arbitrary set and the corresponding modular space, which is more general than a metric space, and, based on this, he further studied Lipschitz continuity and a class of superposition operators on modular metric space

Summary

Introduction

In 1992, Matthews [1] initiated the idea of non-zero self-distance by introducing the notion of the partial metric as a part of the study of the denotational semantics of data flow programming languages in a topological model in computer sciences and extended Banach’s contraction principle [2] in such space. Hosseinzadeh and Parvaneh [16] introduced the notion of partial modular metric spaces as a generalization partial metric space and gave some fixed-point results. We refine the concept of the partial modular metric to eliminate the occurrence of discrepancies in the non-zero self-distance and triangular inequality and prove a common fixed-point theorem for four self-mappings with a suitable example. As an application of our result, the existence of a solution for a system of Volterra integral equations is discussed
