Fixed points of cyclic weakly (ψ,φ,L,A,B)-contractive mappings in ordered b-metric spaces with applications

Abstract

We introduce the notion of ordered cyclic weakly (ψ,φ,L,A,B)- contractive mappings, and we establish some fixed and common fixed point results for this class of mappings in complete ordered b-metric spaces. Our results extend several known results from the context of ordered metric spaces to the setting of ordered b-metric spaces. They are also cyclic variants of some very recent results in ordered b-metric spaces with even weaker contractive conditions. Some examples support our results and show that the obtained extensions are proper. Moreover, an application to integral equations is given here to illustrate the usability of the obtained results. ©2013 Hussain et al.; licensee Springer.
