The aim of this paper is to improve conditions proposed in recently published fixed point results for complete and compact fuzzy metric spaces (Ćirić in Chaos Solitons Fractals 42:146-154, 2009; Shen et al. in Appl. Math. Lett. 25:138-141, 2012). For this purpose, the altering distance functions are used. Moreover, in some of the results presented the class of t-norms is extended by using the theory of countable extensions of t-norms. The mentioned generalizations are illustrated by examples.

Variational inequality theory is an effective tool for engineering, economics, transport and mathematical optimization. Some of the approaches used to resolve variational inequalities usually involve iterative techniques. In this article, we introduce a new modified viscosity-type extragradient method to solve monotone variational inequalities problems in real Hilbert space. The result of the strong convergence of the method is well established without the information of the operator’s Lipschitz constant. There are proper mathematical studies relating our newly designed method to the currently state of the art on several practical test problems.

Several methods have been put forward to solve equilibrium problems, in which the two-step extragradient method is very useful and significant. In this article, we propose a new extragradient-like method to evaluate the numerical solution of the pseudomonotone equilibrium in real Hilbert space. This method uses a non-monotonically stepsize technique based on local bifunction values and Lipschitz-type constants. Furthermore, we establish the weak convergence theorem for the suggested method and provide the applications of our results. Finally, several experimental results are reported to see the performance of the proposed method.

A plethora of applications from mathematical programming, such as minimax, and mathematical programming, penalization, fixed point to mention a few can be framed as equilibrium problems. Most of the techniques for solving such problems involve iterative methods that is why, in this paper, we introduced a new extragradient-like method to solve equilibrium problems in real Hilbert spaces with a Lipschitz-type condition on a bifunction. The advantage of a method is a variable stepsize formula that is updated on each iteration based on the previous iterations. The method also operates without the previous information of the Lipschitz-type constants. The weak convergence of the method is established by taking mild conditions on a bifunction. For application, fixed-point theorems that involve strict pseudocontraction and results for pseudomonotone variational inequalities are studied. We have reported various numerical results to show the numerical behaviour of the proposed method and correlate it with existing ones.
