We have found a new type of a contractive condition that ensures the existence and uniqueness of fixed points and best proximity points in uniformly convex Banach spaces. We provide some examples to validate our results. These results generalize some known results from fixed point theory.

We generalize the p-summing contractions maps. We found sufficient conditions for these new type of maps, that ensure the existence and uniqueness of best proximity points in uniformly convex Banach spaces. We apply the result for Kannan and Chatterjea type cyclic contractions and we obtain sufficient conditions for these maps, that ensure the existence and uniqueness of best proximity points in uniformly convex Banach spaces.

Following the technique introduced in [Eldred, A. A. and Veeramani, P., Existence and convergence of best proximity points, J. Math. Anal. Appl., 323 (2006), 1001–1006], in this paper we will extend Bianchini’s fixed point theorem to best proximity point type theorem. We introduce a new class of contractive conditions, called weak cyclic Bianchini contractions.

In this paper, we give examples of cyclic operators defined on various types of sets, in order to illustrate some results in the extremely rich literature following the seminal paper [Kirk, W. A., Srinivasan, P. S. and Veeramani, P., Fixed points for mappings satisfying cyclical contractive conditions, Fixed Point Theory, 4 (2003), No. 1, 79 – 89]. All examples which are presented enrich the list of cyclic operators and give a subject to future studies of this type of operators.

The aim of this paper is to extend the Kannan fixed point theorem from single-valued self mappings T : X → X to mappings F : X3 → X satisfying a Presiˇ c-Kannan type contractive condition: ... or a Presiˇ c-Chatterjea type contractive condition: ... The obtained tripled fixed point theorems extend and unify several related results in literature.
