Let X be a nonempty set. In 2011, Berinde and Borcut [1] initiated the concept of a tripled fixed point of a mapping H:X×X×X→X. Some tripled fixed (coincidence) point theorems are obtained via the mixed monotone (g-monotone) property, see [2]. Their obtained results are generalizations and extensions of the work due to Bhaskar and Lakshmikantham [3]. As an application, they studied the existence of solutions of a periodic boundary value problem whose coupled fixed point technique cannot solve such a problem.
The concept of cone metric spaces was reintroduced in 2007 by Huang and Zhang [4] by replacing the set of real numbers with an ordered Banach space. This concept was first initiated in literature by showing its importance via a numerical approach by Kantorovich [5]. Note that cone (normed) metric spaces have interesting applications in fixed point theory and the numerical analysis. For instance, see [6,7,8,9,10].
The notion of a fuzzy set was appeared in 1965 by Zadeh [11]. This notion has hardly been studied and extended. Its application on variant fields became fruitful and needful. Data analysis, computational intelligence and artificial intelligence are intensively developed. This theory is also generalized and extended in many directions by means of the theories of aggregation operators and triangular norms and co-norms, see [12,13,14,15]. Kramosil and Michalek [16] initiated the notion of a fuzzy metric space. Defining a fuzzy metric is one of the essential problems in fuzzy mathematics, which was frequently used in pattern recognition and fuzzy optimization. In 1994, George and Veeramani [17] presented some fixed point results in fuzzy metric spaces.
On the other hand, by combining the concepts of a cone metric space setting and a fuzzy set, Oner et al. [18] presented in 2015 the notion of a fuzzy cone metric space (as an abbreviation, (FCM-spaces) and the fuzzy cone Banach contraction result was established. Further results in this direction have been investigated, see [19,20,21,22,23]. Very recently, Waheed et al. [24] established some coupled fixed point results in FCM-spaces. Going in the same direction, the aim of this work is to present some tripled fixed point results in this setting for new contractive mappings via a triangular property. We also give nontrivial examples and two illustrated applications making effective the presented results. To our knowledge, this work is the first time to deal with tripled fixed point notion in FCM-spaces.
In mathematics, the Volterra integral equations are a special type of integral equations. They are divided into two groups referred to as the first and the second kind. It is known that linear and nonlinear Volterra integral equations arise in many scientific fields such as the population dynamics, spread of epidemics, and semi-conductor devices. Finding solutions of linear or nonlinear Volterra integral equations is highly interesting for researchers and scientists in this field and there are available studies to find analytical or numerical solutions for Volterra integral equations (see [25,26,27,28]). In fact, Volterra integral equations are usually solved analytically or numerically by finding approximate solutions to the problems using numerical or analytical approximation methods. For instance, well-posedness and regularity of backward (doubly) stochastic Volterra integral equations have been studied in [29,30]. Among the methods used to solve Volterra integral equations are Sinc-collocation method [31], Barycentric Lagrange interpolation and the equidistance Chebyshev interpolation nodes [32], relaxed Monte Carlo method [33], etc. We will be concerned in this work to use a fixed point technique via a tripled fixed point approach to solve a system of Volterra integral equations. We will also present an application on Lebesgue integral type mappings using a tripled fixed point result.
This paper is organized as follows: Section 2 giving the essential definitions and known results in the literature that help us in the rest of the paper. In Section 3, we prove our main tripled fixed point results and we provide some concrete examples. The aim of Section 4 is to apply our obtained results by ensuring the existence of a tripled fixed point for a Lebesgue integral mapping and a unique solution for a system of Volterra integral equations.
Definition 2.1. [34] An operation ⋆:[0,1]×[0,1]→[0,1] is described as a continuous ν− norm if it fulfills the following:
● ⋆ is associative and commutative,
● ⋆ is continuous,
● for each λ∈[0,1], 1⋆λ=λ,
● for each λ1,λ2,β1,β2∈[0,1], if λ1≤λ2 and β1≤β2, then λ1⋆β1≤λ2⋆β2.
Here N, ℶ, ϑ and ν−norm, represent the set of natural numbers, the real Banach space, a zero element in ℶ and a continuous ν−norm, respectively.
Definition 2.2. [4] A subset Υ∈ℶ is called a cone if the following hold:
(1) Υ≠∅ is closed and Υ≠{ϑ};
(2) If λ1,β1∈(0,∞) and θ,ρ∈Υ, then λ1θ+β1ρ∈Υ;
(3) If both θ∈Υ and −θ∈Υ, then θ=ϑ.
A partial ordering on a cone Υ is described as θ⪯ρ⟺ρ−θ∈Υ. θ≺ρ stands for θ⪯ρ and θ≠ρ, while θ≪ρ stands for ρ−θ∈int(Υ). Here each cone has non-empty interior.
Definition 2.3. [18] A 3−tuple (Ω,Θϖ,⋆) is called an FCM−space if Υ is a cone in ℶ, Ω is an arbitrary set, ⋆ is a ν−norm, and Θϖ is a fuzzy set on Ω2×int(Υ) such that the following are satisfied, for all θ,ρ,δ∈Ω and ν,μ∈int(Υ),
(♡1) Θϖ(θ,ρ,ν)>ϑ and Θϖ(θ,ρ,ν)=1⇔θ=ρ;
(♡2) Θϖ(θ,ρ,ν)=Θϖ(ρ,θ,ν);
(♡3) Θϖ(θ,ρ,ν)⋆Θϖ(ρ,δ,μ)≤Θϖ(θ,δ,ν+μ);
(♡4) Θϖ(θ,ρ,⋅):int(Υ)→[0,1] is continuous.
Definition 2.4. [18] Let (Ω,Θϖ,⋆) be an FCM− space, θ∈Ω and (θi) be a sequence in Ω.
● (θi) is called convergent to some θ if for ν≫ϑ and 0<u<1, there exists i1∈N such that Θϖ(θi,θ,ν)>1−u, ∀i>i1, and we can write limi→∞θi=θ.
● (θi) is called a Cauchy sequence if for ν≫ϑ and 0<u<1, there exists i1∈N such that
Θϖ(θk,θi,ν)>1−u, ∀k,i>i1. |
● If every Cauchy sequence is convergent in Ω, then the triple (Ω,Θϖ,⋆) is called complete.
● (θi) is called a fuzzy cone contraction (Fcc) if there exists β∈(0,1) such that
1Θϖ(θi,θi+1,ν)−1≤β(1Θϖ(θi−1,θi,ν)−1), ∀ν≫ϑ, i≥1. |
Definition 2.5. [35] Assume that (Ω,Θϖ,⋆) is an FCM−space. Then the fuzzy cone metric Θϖ is called triangular if
1Θϖ(θ,δ,ν)−1≤(1Θϖ(θ,ρ,ν)−1)+(1Θϖ(ρ,δ,ν)−1), ∀θ,ρ,δ∈Ω, ν≫ϑ. |
Lemma 2.6. [18] Suppose that (Ω,Θϖ,⋆) is an FCM−space, θ∈Ω and (θi) is asequence in Ω, then
θi→θ⇔limi→∞Θϖ(θi,θ,ν)=1, for ν≫ϑ. |
Definition 2.7. [18] Let (Ω,Θϖ,⋆) be an FCM− space and Ξ:Ω→Ω. Then Ξ is called an Fcc if there exists g∈(0,1) such that
(1Θϖ(Ξθ,Ξρ,ν)−1)≤g(1Θϖ(θ,ρ,ν)−1), ∀θ,ρ∈Ω, ν≫ϑ. |
Definition 2.8. [3] A pair (θ,ρ) is called a coupled FP of the mapping Ξ:Ω×Ω→Ω if
Ξ(θ,ρ)=θ and Ξ(ρ,θ)=ρ. |
Definition 2.9. [1] Let Ω≠∅. Then a triple (θ,ρ,δ)∈Ω3 is called a TFP of the mapping Ξ:Ω3→Ω if θ=Ξ(θ,ρ,δ), ρ=Ξ(ρ,δ,θ) and δ=Ξ(δ,θ,ρ).
Example 2.10. Let Ω=[0,∞) and Ξ:Ω3→Ω be a mapping given by
Ξ(θ,ρ,δ)=θ+ρ+δ3, ∀θ,ρ,δ∈Ω. |
Then Ξ has a TFP when θ=ρ=δ.
This part is concerned with presenting the main theoretical results of our paper. In addition, some supporting examples are provided.
Theorem 3.1. Let Ξ:Ω3→Ω be a mapping defined ona complete FCM−space (Ω,Θϖ,⋆) in which Θϖ is triangular and fulfills
1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϱ,ν)−1)+u2(1Z(Ξ,(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1), | (3.1) |
where
(1Z(Ξ,(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1)=(1Θϖ(ϰ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)−1), |
for all ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ,ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ∈Ω, ν≫ϑand u1∈[0,1) and u2≥0 with u1+4u2<1. Then Ξ has a unique TFP in Ω.
Proof. Consider ϰ0,ˆϰ0,˜ϰ0∈Ω. Describe sequences {ϰα}, {ˆϰα} and {˜ϰα} in Ω such that
{Ξ(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα)=ϰα+1,Ξ(ˆϰα,˜ϰα,ϰα)=ˆϰα+1,Ξ(˜ϰα,ϰα,ˆϰα)=˜ϰα+1, for α≥0. | (3.2) |
By (3.1), for ν≫ϑ, we have
1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1=1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰα−1,ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1),Ξ(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα),ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1)+u2(1Z(Ξ,(ϰα−1,ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1),(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα),ν)−1), | (3.3) |
where
1Z(Ξ,(ϰα−1,ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1),(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα),ν)−1=(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,Ξ(ϰα−1,ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα,Ξ(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα−1,Ξ(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα,Ξ(ϰα−1,ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1),ν)−1)=(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα+1,ν)−1)≤2(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1). | (3.4) |
By (3.4) and (3.3), for ν≫ϑ, we have
1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1)+2u2(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1). |
By simple calculations, we obtain that
1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1≤∇(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1), for ν≫ϑ, | (3.5) |
where ∇=u1+2u21−2u2<1. Analogously, one can write
1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1≤∇(1Θϖ(ϰα−2,ϰα−1,ν)−1), for ν≫ϑ. | (3.6) |
By induction and from (3.5) and (3.6), for ν≫ϑ, we conclude that
1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1≤∇(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1)≤∇2(1Θϖ(ϰα−2,ϰα−1,ν)−1)⋮≤∇α(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)→0 as α→∞. |
This implies that {ϰα} is an Fcc and hence
limα→∞Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)=1. |
Now, for ℓ>α and ν≫ϑ, we get
1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰℓ,ν)−1≤1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα+1,ϰα+2,ν)−1+⋯+1Θϖ(ϰℓ−1,ϰℓ,ν)−1≤∇α(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)+∇α+1(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)+⋯+∇ℓ−1(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)=(∇α+∇α+1+⋯+∇ℓ−1)(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)=∇α1−∇(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)→0 as α→∞. |
This proves that the sequence {ϰα} is Cauchy. Again, regarding to the sequence ˆϰα, by (3.1), for ν≫ϑ, we get
1Θϖ(ˆϰα,ˆϰα+1,ν)−1=1Θϖ(Ξ(ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1,ϰα−1),Ξ(ˆϰα,˜ϰα,ϰα),ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ˆϰα−1,ˆϰα,ν)−1)+u2(1Z(Ξ,(ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1,ϰα−1),(ˆϰα,˜ϰα,ϰα),ν)−1), | (3.7) |
where
1Z(Ξ,(ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1,ϰα−1),(ˆϰα,˜ϰα,ϰα),ν)−1=(1Θϖ(ˆϰα−1,Ξ(ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1,ϰα−1),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ˆϰα,Ξ(ˆϰα,˜ϰα,ϰα),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ˆϰα−1,Ξ(ˆϰα,˜ϰα,ϰα),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ˆϰα,Ξ(ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1,ϰα−1),ν)−1)=(1Θϖ(ˆϰα−1,ˆϰα,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ˆϰα,ˆϰα+1,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ˆϰα−1,ˆϰα+1,ν)−1)≤2(1Θϖ(ˆϰα−1,ˆϰα,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ˆϰα,ˆϰα+1,ν)−1). | (3.8) |
It follows from (3.7) and (3.8) that, for ν≫ϑ,
1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1)+2u2(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1). |
Again, by simple calculations, we obtain that
1Θϖ(ˆϰα,ˆϰα+1,ν)−1≤∇(1Θϖ(ˆϰα−1,ˆϰα,ν)−1), for ν≫ϑ, | (3.9) |
where ∇=u1+2u21−2u2<1. Similarly, we have
1Θϖ(ˆϰα−1,ˆϰα,ν)−1≤∇(1Θϖ(ˆϰα−2,ˆϰα−1,ν)−1), for ν≫ϑ. | (3.10) |
From (3.9), (3.10) and by induction for ν≫ϑ, we get
1Θϖ(ˆϰα,ˆϰα+1,ν)−1≤∇(1Θϖ(ˆϰα−1,ˆϰα,ν)−1)≤∇2(1Θϖ(ˆϰα−2,ˆϰα−1,ν)−1)⋮≤∇α(1Θϖ(ˆϰ0,ˆϰ1,ν)−1)→0 as α→∞. |
This yields that the sequence {ˆϰα} is an Fcc and hence
limα→∞Θϖ(ˆϰα,ˆϰα+1,ν)=1. |
Now, for ℓ>α and ν≫ϑ, we get
1Θϖ(ˆϰα,ˆϰℓ,ν)−1≤1Θϖ(ˆϰα,ˆϰα+1,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ˆϰα+1,ˆϰα+2,ν)−1+⋯+1Θϖ(ˆϰℓ−1,ˆϰℓ,ν)−1≤∇α(1Θϖ(ˆϰ0,ˆϰ1,ν)−1)+∇α+1(1Θϖ(ˆϰ0,ˆϰ1,ν)−1)+⋯+∇ℓ−1(1Θϖ(ˆϰ0,ˆϰ1,ν)−1)=(∇α+∇α+1+⋯+∇ℓ−1)(1Θϖ(ˆϰ0,ˆϰ1,ν)−1)=∇α1−∇(1Θϖ(ˆϰ0,ˆϰ1,ν)−1)→0 as α→∞. |
Hence, {ˆϰα} is a Cauchy sequence. With the same approach, one can prove that the sequence {˜ϰα} is also Cauchy in Ω. Since Ω is complete, there are ϰ, ˆϰ and ˜ϰ in Ω such that ϰα→ϰ, ˆϰα→ˆϰ and ˜ϰα→˜ϰ as α→∞. So, we can write
limα→∞Θϖ(ϰα,ϰ,ν)=1,limα→∞Θϖ(ˆϰα,ˆϰ,ν)=1,limα→∞Θϖ(˜ϰα,˜ϰ,ν)=1 for ν≫ϑ. |
Hence
limα→∞ϰα+1=limα→∞Ξ(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα)=Ξ(limα→∞ϰα,limα→∞ˆϰα,limα→∞˜ϰα)=Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ)=ϰ,limα→∞ˆϰα+1=limα→∞Ξ(ˆϰα,˜ϰα,ϰα)=Ξ(limα→∞ˆϰα,limα→∞˜ϰα,limα→∞ϰα)=Ξ(ˆϰ,˜ϰ,ϰ)=ˆϰ,limα→∞˜ϰα+1=limα→∞Ξ(˜ϰα,ϰα,ˆϰα)=Ξ(limα→∞˜ϰα,limα→∞ϰα,limα→∞ˆϰα)=Ξ(˜ϰ,ϰ,ˆϰ)=˜ϰ. |
Therefore, a mapping Ξ has a TFP (ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ) in Ω3.
For uniqueness, assume that (ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1) is another TFP of Ξ such that (ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1)≠(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ). From (3.1), for ν≫ϑ, we can write
1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1=1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)+u2(1Z(Ξ,(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1), | (3.11) |
where
1Z(Ξ,(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1=(1Θϖ(ϰ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰ1,Ξ(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰ,Ξ(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰ1,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)−1)=(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰ1,ϰ1,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)=2(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1). | (3.12) |
From (3.12) in (3.11), we obtain that
1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)+2u2(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)=(u1+2u2)(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)=(u1+2u2)(1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1)≤(u1+2u2)2(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)⋮≤(u1+2u2)α(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)→0 as α→∞, |
where u1+2u2<1. This implies that Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)=1, for ν≫ϑ. Thus, ϰ=ϰ1. By the same manner, one can obtain ˆϰ=ˆϰ1 and ˜ϰ=˜ϰ1. This completes the proof.
Corollary 3.2. Theorem 3.1 is also true if we replace the condition (3.1) with one of the following:
(♣1) For ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ,ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ∈Ω, ν≫ϑ,
1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϱ,ν)−1)+u2(1Θϖ(ϰ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1), |
for any u1∈[0,1) and u2≥0 with (u1+2u2)<1.
(♣2) For ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ,ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ∈Ω, ν≫ϑ,
1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϱ,ν)−1)+u2(1Θϖ(ϰ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)−1), |
for any u1∈[0,1) and u2≥0 with u1+2u2<1.
Example 3.3. Let Ω=(0,∞), ⋆ be a ν−norm and Θϖ:Ω2×(0,∞)→[0,1] be described as
Θϖ(ϰ,ϱ,ν)=νd(ϰ,ϱ)+ν, d(ϰ,ϱ)=|ϰ−ϱ|, |
for all ϰ,ϱ∈Ω, for ν>0. Clearly, (Ω,Θϖ,⋆) is a complete FCM−space. Define the mapping Ξ:Ω3→Ω by
Ξ(ϰ,ϱ,ℓ)={ϰ−ϱ−ℓ21,if ϰ,ϱ,ℓ∈[0,1),3ϰ+3ϱ+3ℓ−67if ϰ,ϱ,ℓ∈[1,∞). |
Then, for ν≫ϑ,
1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1=1Θϖ(ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ21,ϱ−ˆϱ−˜ϱ21,ν)−1=1ν(d(ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ21,ϱ−ˆϱ−˜ϱ21))=121ν|ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ−ϱ+ˆϱ+˜ϱ|≤121ν[|(ϰ−ϱ)+(ϰ−(ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ))+(ϱ−(ϱ−ˆϱ−˜ϱ))+(ϰ−(ϱ−ˆϱ−˜ϱ))+(ϱ−(ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ))|]≤121ν|ϰ−ϱ|+121ν(|ϰ−(ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ)|+|ϱ−(ϱ−ˆϱ−˜ϱ)||ϰ−(ϱ−ˆϱ−˜ϱ)|+|ϱ−(ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ)|)=121(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϱ,ν)−1)+112(1Θϖ(ϰ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)−1)=121(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϱ,ν)−1)+112(1Z(Ξ,(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1). |
Hence, all the conditions of Theorem 3.1 are fulfilled with u1=u2=121. Therefore, Ξ possesses a point (3,3,3) as unique TFP, that is,
Ξ(3,3,3)=3(3)+3(3)+3(3)−67=3. |
Theorem 3.4. Let (Ω,Θϖ,⋆) be a complete FCM−space, Ξ:Ω3→Ω be a given mapping and Θϖ be triangular satisfying
1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϱ,ν)−1)+u2(1Θϖ(ϰ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1)+u3(1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)⋆Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1) | (3.13) |
for all ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ,ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ∈Ω, ν≫ϑand u1∈[0,1) and u2,u3≥0 with u1+2u2+u3<1. Then Ξ has a unique TFP in Ω.
Proof. Assume that the sequences given in (3.2) are valid. Then from (3.13), for ν≫ϑ, we get
1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1=1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰα−1,ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1),Ξ(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα),ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1)+u2(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,Ξ(ϰα−1,ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα,Ξ(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα),ν)−1)+u3(1Θϖ(ϰα,Ξ(ϰα−1,ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1),ν)⋆Θϖ(ϰα,Ξ(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα),ν)−1)=u1(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1)+u2(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1)+u3(1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα,ν)⋆Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1)=u1(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1)+u2(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1)+u3(1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1). |
After a routine calculation, we have
1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1≤ℷ(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1), for ν≫ϑ, | (3.14) |
where ℷ=u1+u21−u2−u3<1. Similarly,
1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1≤ℷ(1Θϖ(ϰα−2,ϰα−1,ν)−1), for ν≫ϑ. | (3.15) |
It follows from (3.14), (3.15) and induction that, for ν≫ϑ,
1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1≤ℷ(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1)≤ℷ2(1Θϖ(ϰα−2,ϰα−1,ν)−1)⋮≤ℷα(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)→0 as α→∞. |
This implies that {ϰα} is an Fcc and so we get
limα→∞Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)=1. |
Now, for ℓ>α and ν≫ϑ, we obtain
1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰℓ,ν)−1≤1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰα+1,ϰα+2,ν)−1+⋯+1Θϖ(ϰℓ−1,ϰℓ,ν)−1≤ℷα(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)+ℷα+1(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)+⋯+ℷℓ−1(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)=(ℷα+ℷα+1+⋯+ℷℓ−1)(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)=ℷα1−ℷ(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)→0 as α→∞. |
This proves that the sequence {ϰα} is Cauchy. In the same scenario, it can be shown that the sequences {ˆϰα} and {˜ϰα} are Cauchy. Since Ω is complete, there are ϰ, ˆϰ and ˜ϰ in Ω such that ϰα→ϰ, ˆϰα→ˆϰ and ˜ϰα→˜ϰ as α→∞. Hence, one can write
limα→∞Θϖ(ϰα,ϰ,ν)=1,limα→∞Θϖ(ˆϰα,ˆϰ,ν)=1,limα→∞Θϖ(˜ϰα,˜ϰ,ν)=1 for ν≫ϑ. |
Thus,
limα→∞ϰα+1=limα→∞Ξ(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα)=Ξ(limα→∞ϰα,limα→∞ˆϰα,limα→∞˜ϰα)=Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ)=ϰ,limα→∞ˆϰα+1=limα→∞Ξ(ˆϰα,˜ϰα,ϰα)=Ξ(limα→∞ˆϰα,limα→∞˜ϰα,limα→∞ϰα)=Ξ(ˆϰ,˜ϰ,ϰ)=ˆϰ,limα→∞˜ϰα+1=limα→∞Ξ(˜ϰα,ϰα,ˆϰα)=Ξ(limα→∞˜ϰα,limα→∞ϰα,limα→∞ˆϰα)=Ξ(˜ϰ,ϰ,ˆϰ)=˜ϰ. |
Therefore, a mapping Ξ possesses a TFP (ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ) in Ω3.
Now, let (ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1) be a TFP of Ξ such that (ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1)≠(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ). From (3.1), for ν≫ϑ, we have
1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1=1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)+u2(1Θϖ(ϰ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϰ1,Ξ(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1)+u3(1Θϖ(ϰ1,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)⋆Θϖ(ϰ1,Ξ(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1)=(u1+u3)(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)=(u1+u3)(1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1)≤(u1+u3)2(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)⋮≤(u1+u3)α(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)→0 as α→∞. |
Therefore, Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)=1. Thus it follows that ϰ=ϰ1. Analogously, one can obtain ˆϰ=ˆϰ1 and ˜ϰ=˜ϰ1. This finishes the proof.
Corollary 3.5. Theorem 3.4 is valid if we replace the condition (3.13) with the following condition: For ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ,ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ∈Ω, ν≫ϑ,
1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1≤u1(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϱ,ν)−1)+u3(1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)⋆Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1), |
for any u1∈[0,1) and u3≥0 with u1+2u3<1.
In order to support Theorem 3.4, the example below is considered.
Example 3.6. Assume that all the requirements of Example 3.3 hold. Then, from (3.13), for ν≫ϑ, we get
1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1=1Θϖ(ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ21,ϱ−ˆϱ−˜ϱ21,ν)−1=1ν(d((ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ21,ϱ−ˆϱ−˜ϱ21)))=121ν|ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ−ϱ+ˆϱ+˜ϱ|≤121ν|(ϰ−ϱ)+(ϰ−(ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ))+(ϱ−(ϱ−ˆϱ−˜ϱ))|≤121ν|ϰ−ϱ|+121ν|(ϰ−(ϰ−ˆϰ−˜ϰ))+(ϱ−(ϱ−ˆϱ−˜ϱ))|=121(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϱ,ν)−1)+121(1Θϖ(ϰ,Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1). |
It is easy to prove that all the requirements of Theorem 3.4 are satisfied with u1=u2=121 and u3=0. Hence, Ξ has a unique strong TFP in Ω, which is (3,3,3).
This part is devoted to discuss an application on Lebesgue integral type mappings to strengthen our theoretical results.
In 2002, Branciari [36] presented the following theorem:
Theorem 4.1. Let Ξ be a mapping defined in a complete metric space (Ω,d) satisfying
∫d(Ξϰ,Ξϱ)0ω(η)dη≤ρ∫d(ϰ,ϱ)0ω(η)dη, |
where ρ∈[0,1) and ω:R+→R+ is a Lebesgue integrable function which is summable, positive and suchthat ∫ϵ0ω(η)dη>0 for each ϵ>0.Then Ξ has a unique fixed point q∈Ω. Moreover, for all ϰ∈Ω, limα→∞Ξαϰ=q.
According to the above idea, we obtain a unique TFP result in FCM− space.
Theorem 4.2. Let Ξ:Ω3→Ω be a mapping defined ona complete FCM−space (Ω,Θϖ,⋆) in which Θϖ is triangular and fulfills
∫(1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1)0ω(η)dη≤u1∫(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϱ,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη+u2∫(1Z(Ξ,(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1)ω(η)dη, | (4.1) |
where (1Z(Ξ,(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1) is defined in Theorem 3.1, for all ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ,ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ∈Ω, ν≫ϑand u1∈[0,1), u2≥0 with u1+4u2<1 and ω:R+→R+ is a Lebesgue integrable function which is summable, positive and suchthat eϵ>0 for each ϵ>0. Then Ξ possesses a uniqueTFP in Ω.
Proof. Define a sequences {ϰα}, {ˆϰα} and {˜ϰα} as (3.2). Then by (4.1) and from some statements of the proof of Theorem 3.1, for ν≫ϑ, we get
∫(1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη=∫(1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰα−1,ˆϰα−1,˜ϰα−1),Ξ(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα),ν)−1)0ω(η)dη≤∇∫(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη, | (4.2) |
where ∇=u1+2u21−2u2<1. Similarly, by using the same arguments, we obtain that
∫(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη≤∇∫(1Θϖ(ϰα−2,ϰα−1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη, for ν≫ϑ. | (4.3) |
From (4.2), (4.3) and by induction for ν≫ϑ, we can write
∫(1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη≤∇∫(1Θϖ(ϰα−1,ϰα,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη≤∇2∫(1Θϖ(ϰα−2,ϰα−1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη⋮≤∇α∫(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη→0 as α→∞. |
This proves that the sequence {ϰα} is an Fcc and hence
limα→∞∫(1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη=0⇒limα→∞(1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1)=0, for ν≫ϑ. |
Thus
limα→∞Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)=1, for ν≫ϑ. |
Now, for ℓ>α and ν≫ϑ, we get
∫(1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰℓ,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη≤∫(1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰα+1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη+∫(1Θϖ(ϰα+1,ϰα+2,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη+⋯+∫1Θϖ(ϰℓ−1,ϰℓ,ν)−10ω(η)dη≤∇α∫1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−10ω(η)dη+∇α+1∫1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−10ω(η)dη+⋯+∇ℓ−1∫(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη=(∇α+∇α+1+⋯+∇ℓ−1)∫(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη=∇α1−∇∫(1Θϖ(ϰ0,ϰ1,ν)−1)ω(η)dη→0 as α→∞. |
It follows that
limα→∞∫(1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰℓ,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη=0⇒limα→∞(1Θϖ(ϰα,ϰℓ,ν)−1)=0. |
This proves that {ϰα} is a Cauchy sequence in Ω. By the same approach, we can show that {ˆϰα} and {˜ϰα} are Cauchy sequences in Ω. Since Ω is complete, there are ϰ, ˆϰ and ˜ϰ in Ω such that ϰα→ϰ, ˆϰα→ˆϰ and ˜ϰα→˜ϰ as α→∞. Therefore,
limα→∞Θϖ(ϰα,ϰ,ν)=1,limα→∞Θϖ(ˆϰα,ˆϰ,ν)=1,limα→∞Θϖ(˜ϰα,˜ϰ,ν)=1 for ν≫ϑ. |
Hence
limα→∞ϰα+1=limα→∞Ξ(ϰα,ˆϰα,˜ϰα)=Ξ(limα→∞ϰα,limα→∞ˆϰα,limα→∞˜ϰα)=Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ)=ϰ,limα→∞ˆϰα+1=limα→∞Ξ(ˆϰα,˜ϰα,ϰα)=Ξ(limα→∞ˆϰα,limα→∞˜ϰα,limα→∞ϰα)=Ξ(ˆϰ,˜ϰ,ϰ)=ˆϰ,limα→∞˜ϰα+1=limα→∞Ξ(˜ϰα,ϰα,ˆϰα)=Ξ(limα→∞˜ϰα,limα→∞ϰα,limα→∞ˆϰα)=Ξ(˜ϰ,ϰ,ˆϰ)=˜ϰ. |
For uniqueness, suppose that (ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1) is another TFP of Ξ such that (ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1)≠(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ). By a similar method to the proof of Theorem 3.1 and using (4.1), for ν≫ϑ, we have
∫(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη=∫(1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1)0ω(η)dη≤(u1+2u2)∫(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη=(u1+2u2)∫(1Θϖ(Ξ(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),Ξ(ϰ1,ˆϰ1,˜ϰ1),ν)−1)0ω(η)dη≤(u1+2u2)2∫(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη⋮≤(u1+2u2)α∫(1Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)−1)0ω(η)dη→0 as α→∞. |
Hence, we obtain Θϖ(ϰ,ϰ1,ν)=1, for ν≫ϑ. This implies that ϰ=ϰ1. Similarly, ˆϰ=ˆϰ1 and ˜ϰ=˜ϰ1. This finishes the required.
In this part, we apply Theorem 3.1 to ensure the existence of a solution to the system of Volterra integral equations (see also [37,38]). Solving this system is equivalent to find a TFP of the mapping Ξ.
Let B=(C[0,1],R) be the space of all real continuous functions and describe a supremum norm on B by
‖ϰ‖=supl∈[0,1]|ϰ(l)|, for all ϰ∈B. |
Define a distance d:B×B→R by
d(ϰ,ϱ)=supl∈[0,1]|ϰ(l)−ϱ(l)|=‖ϰ−ϱ‖, ∀ϰ,ϱ∈B. |
Since ⋆ is a ν−norm, we get ⋆(r,s)=rs, ∀r,s∈[0,1]. Define a fuzzy metric Θϖ:B×B×(0,∞)→[0,1] by
Qc(ϰ,ϱ,ν)=νν+d(ϰ,ϱ), d(ϰ,ϱ)=‖ϰ−ϱ‖, | (4.4) |
for ϰ,ϱ∈B and ν≫ϑ. Obviously, Θϖ is triangular and (B,Θϖ,⋆) is a complete FCM−space. Consider the following system:
{ϱ(η)=ξ1(η)+1∫0℧1(η,ζ,ϱ(ζ))dζ,ˆϱ(η)=ξ2(η)+1∫0℧2(η,ζ,ˆϱ(ζ))dζ,˜ϱ(η)=ξ3(η)+1∫0℧3(η,ζ,˜ϱ(ζ))dζ, | (4.5) |
where η∈R, and ξ1,ξ2,ξ3∈B.
To study the existence of the solution to system (4.5), we consider the following:
(h1) The functions ξi:[0,1]→R and ℧i:[0,1]×[0,1]×R→R, (i=1,2,3) are continuous;
(h2) For ϱ,ˆφ,˜κ∈A, ˆϱ,˜φ,κ∈G and ˜ϱ,φ,ˆκ∈H, where A,G,H⊂B such that
{A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)(η)=1∫0℧1(η,ζ,(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)(ζ))dζG(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)(η)=1∫0℧2(η,ζ,(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)(ζ))dζH(κ,ˆκ,˜κ)(η)=1∫0℧3(η,ζ,(κ,ˆκ,˜κ)(ζ))dζ, η∈[0,1]; |
(h3) There exists γ∈[0,1] such that
{‖(A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)+ξ1)−(G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)+ξ2)‖≤γ℧(A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ))‖(G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)+ξ2)−(H(κ,ˆκ,˜κ)+ξ3)‖≤γ℧(G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ),H(κ,ˆκ,˜κ))‖(A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)+ξ1)−(H(κ,ˆκ,˜κ)+ξ3)‖≤γ℧(A(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),H(κ,ˆκ,˜κ)), |
where
℧(A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ))=max{‖Aϰ−Gℓ‖,‖A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)−Aϱ‖+‖G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)−Gφ‖+‖G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)−Aϱ‖+‖A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)−Gφ‖}. |
Analogously, ℧(G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ),H(κ,ˆκ,˜κ)) and ℧(A(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),H(κ,ˆκ,˜κ)), where
A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ),H(κ,ˆκ,˜κ),Aξ1,Gξ2,Hξ3,Aϱ,Gφ,Hκ∈B.
Theorem 4.3. Problem (4.5) has a unique solution, provided that theconditions (h1)−(h3) hold.
Proof. Define an operator Ξ:B3→B by
{Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)=A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)+ξ1,Ξ(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)=G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)+ξ2,Ξ(κ,ˆκ,˜κ)=H(κ,ˆκ,˜κ)+ξ3. | (4.6) |
Now, we need to assume the the following cases:
(♡1) If ℧(A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ))=‖Aϰ−Gℓ‖, then by (4.4) and (4.5), we get
1Θϖ(Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),Ξ(φ,ˆφ,˜φ),ν)−1=1ν‖Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)−Ξ(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)‖=γν℧(A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ))=γν‖Aϱ−Gφ‖=γ(1Θϖ(ϱ,φ,ν)−1), |
for ν≫ϑ, and for ϱ,ˆφ,∈A, ˆϱ,˜φ∈G and ˜ϱ,φ∈H. Therefore Ξ fulfills all the conditions of Theorem 3.1 with u1=γ and u2=0. Thus, the problem (4.5) has a unique solution in B.
(♡2) If
℧(A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ))=(‖A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)−Aϱ‖+‖G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)−Gφ‖+‖G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)−Aϱ‖+‖A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)−Gφ‖), |
then from (4.4) and (4.5), we have
1Θϖ(Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),Ξ(φ,ˆφ,˜φ),ν)−1=1ν‖Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)−Ξ(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)‖=γν℧(A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ))=γν(‖A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)−Aϱ‖+‖G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)−Gφ‖+‖G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ)−Aϱ‖+‖A(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ)−Gφ‖)=γ(1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(φ,Ξ(φ,ˆφ,˜φ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(ϱ,Ξ(φ,ˆφ,˜φ),ν)−1+1Θϖ(φ,Ξ(ϱ,ˆϱ,˜ϱ),ν)−1) |
for ν≫ϑ, and for ϱ,ˆφ,∈A, ˆϱ,˜φ∈G and ˜ϱ,φ∈H. Therefore, Ξ satisfies all the conditions of Theorem 3.1 with u1=0 and u2=γ. Thus the system (4.5) has a unique solution in B.
Similarly, we can finish the proof if we consider ℧(G(φ,ˆφ,˜φ),H(κ,ˆκ,˜κ)) and ℧(A(ϰ,ˆϰ,˜ϰ),H(κ,ˆκ,˜κ)) under the same cases (♡1) and (♡2).
