Abstract
In this paper, we introduce the concept of orthogonal convex structure contraction mapping and prove some fixed point theorems on orthogonal ♭-metric spaces. We adopt an example to highlight the utility of our main result. Finally, we apply our result to examine the existence and uniqueness of the solution for the spring-mass system via an integral equation with a numerical example.
1. Introduction
Stefan Banach published his first known result in 1922, which is also possibly the most useful. It is referred to as the Banach contraction mapping principle. According to this theory, each contraction in a complete metric space has a distinct fixed point. It is helpful to note that this fixed point is also a singular fixed point for all iterations of the specified contractive mapping. Many writers generalised Banach’s well-known discovery after 1922. On the subject, a lot of papers have been written. Two crucial generalizations were made:
(1) New relations (Kannan, Chatterje, Reich, Hardy-Rogers, Ćirić, ...) were used to bring new circumstances into the existing contractive relation.
(2) The axioms of metric space have been modified. As a result, numerous classes of new spaces are obtained. Visit papers [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13] for additional information. Takahashi [14] initiated the notions of a convex structure and metric space in 1970 in addition to developing some of the fixed point theorems via his finding convex metric space. Goebel and Kirk [15] also looked at the iterative processes for nonexpansive mappings in the hyperbolic metric space, and in 1988, Xie [16] used Ishikawa’s iteration approach to find fixed points for quasi-contraction mappings in convex metric spaces. Nonexpansive iterations in hyperbolic spaces were introduced in 1990 by Reich and Shafrir [17]. Mureşan et al. [18] presented the theory of some fixed point theorems for convex contraction mappings, the limit shadowing property, and Ulam-Hyers stability for the fixed point theorem in 2015. Latif et al. [19] established some approximate fixed point theorems via partial generalized convex contractions and partial generalized convex contractions of order 2 in the setting of -complete metric spaces. Georgescu [20] studied iterated function systems consisting of generalized convex contractions on the framework of ♭-Metric spaces. They proved the generalization of Istratescu’s convex contraction fixed point theorem in the setting of complete strong ♭-Metric spaces in 2017. Karaca et al. [21] proved fixed point theorems for the Reich contraction mapping in a convex ♭-Metric space using the Mann iteration sequence in 2021. Also, they have the weak T-stability of the Mann iteration for this mapping in complete convex ♭-Metric spaces. In 2021, Chen et al. [22] first introduced the concept of the convex graphical rectangular ♭-Metric space () and obtained strong convergence theorems for these mappings in under some suitable conditions. Following that, some works on the generalization of such classes of mappings in the setting of various spaces [23,24,25,26,27,28,29] appeared.
On the other hand, Gordji et al. [30] presented a new notion of orthogonality in metric spaces and illustrated the fixed point solution for contraction mappings in metric spaces using this new kind of orthogonality. They also showed how these results could be used to talk about the existence and uniqueness of a first-order ODE solution, even though the Banach contraction mapping principle does not work in this case. The fixed point in generalized orthogonal metric spaces was then demonstrated by Eshaghi Gordji and Habibi [31]. The idea of orthogonal F-contraction mappings was recently presented by Sawangsup et al. [32], who also demonstrated the fixed point theorems on orthogonal-complete metric spaces. The investigation of orthogonal contractive type mappings continued, with substantial findings made by numerous other researchers [33,34]. The goal of this study is to carry on these investigations. First, we discussed the novel notions of mappings of a orthogonal convex structural contraction on a orthogonal ♭-Metric space. Then, we show the fixed point theorems on a orthogonal complete ♭-Metric space and examples. We also present an application to resolve a spring-mass system and some examples for nonlinear integral equation of first kind with numerical solution to support of the obtained results.
2. Preliminaries
Throughout this paper, represents the set of positive integers, ℜ denotes the set of all real numbers and is the set of non-negative reals.
Definition 1.

- (1)
- iff ;
- (2)
- , for all ;
- (3)
- , for all .
The pair is called ♭-metric space (shortly, ♭-MS).
The following are some examples and properties of a orthogonal set (or -set) as initiated by Gordji et al. [30].
Definition 2.
([30]). Let . If a binary relation satisfies the following stipulation:
then it is called a orthogonal set (briefly -set) and it is denoted by .
Example 1.

Example 2.

At this point, it is important to remember some basic like, orthogonal sequence, orthogonal continuous, orthogonal complete, orthogonal metric space, orthogonal preserving, and weakly orthogonal preserving.
Definition 3.

- 3.
- We say that is -complete -metric space if every Cauchy -sequence in Υ is convergent.
Definition 6.
([30]). Let be an -MS. Then, we say that a function is a orthogonal continuous (or ⊥-continuous) in if for each -sequence of Υ with as , i.e., . Also, we say that ⊤ is ⊥-continuous on Υ if ⊤ is ⊥-continuous in each .
Remark 1.
([30]). Every continuous mapping is ⊥-continuous and the converse is not true.
Definition 7.

for each and with .
In the following section, we inspired and motivated the concepts of convex contraction and orthogonality. First, we define and illustrate orthogonal convex -MS. We generalize and prove the fixed point theorem in the context of orthogonal convex -MS using orthogonal convex contraction.

Moreover, by inequality (8), we obtain , which shows that . Next, prove that an O-sequence is Cauchy. Contrary, we assume an O-sequence is not Cauchy, then , and are the sub sequences of such that is not greatest number with ,
and

Since ⊤ is ⊥-preserving, we have
for all . Now
As , we obtain . Thus, . Hence, ⊤ has a unique fixed point in . □
Now, we demonstrate an illustration of Theorem 2.
Example 6.
