Geraghty-type theorems in modular metric spaces with an application to partial differential equation

Abstract

In this article, we prove some fixed point theorems of Geraghty-type concerning the existence and uniqueness of fixed points under the setting of modular metric spaces. Also, we give an application of our main results to establish the existence and uniqueness of a solution to a nonhomogeneous linear parabolic partial differential equation in the last section. © 2012 Chaipunya et al.
