Solving a System of Integral Equations in Rectangular Menger Probabilistic Metric Spaces and Rectangular Menger Probabilistic b-Metric Spaces

Abstract

This work introduces the concepts of rectangular Menger probabilistic metric (RMPM) space and rectangular Menger probabilistic b-metric (RMPbM) space as generalizations of the Menger probabilistic metric space and the Menger probabilistic b-metric space, respectively. Some nonunique fixed-point and coupled-fixed-point results for contractive mappings are provided. The findings extend and improve outcomes presented in the existing literature. The main results are illustrated with examples, and validated by means of an application to a system of integral equations. The importance of spaces with non-Hausdorff topology is high, as is the case of computer science, with the Tarskian approach to programming language semantics.
