Abstract
The purpose of this research work is to explore the solution of the Fredholm integral equation by common fixed point results in bicomplex valued metric spaces. In this way, we develop some common fixed point theorems for generalized contractions containing point-dependent control functions in the context of bicomplex valued metric spaces. An illustrative and practical example is also given to show the novelty of the most important result.

1. Introduction
The theory of bicomplex numbers was constructed by Segre [1] in which the elements or idempotents play a significant role. These bicomplex numbers lengthen complex numbers accurately to quaternions. For a more in-depth analysis of bicomplex numbers, we point out reference [2] to the readers. In 2007, Long-Guang et al. [3] presented the notion of cone metric spaces (CMSs) as an expansion of traditional metric space (MS) and determined fixed point results for contractive mappings. Later on, Azam et al. [4] introduced the conception of a complex valued metric space (CVMS) as a particular case of a CMS. The idea to initiate a CVMS was invented to construct rational expressions which cannot be given in CMSs and consequently numerous results of this theory cannot be obtained in CMSs; thus, CVMSs form a particular class of CMS. Indeed, the concept of a CMS starts to originate the notion of Banach space that is not a division ring. However, we can investigate the extensions of numerous theorems in the theory of fixed points including divisions in CVMSs. Furthermore, this concept is also utilized to introduce the notion of complex-valued Banach spaces [5], which provide a lot of areas for supplemental exploration.
Choi et al. [6] initiated the concept of bicomplex valued metric spaces (bi-CVMSs) by combining the ideas of bicomplex numbers and CVMSs. They proved some common fixed point theorems for weakly compatible mappings. Subsequently, Jebril et al. [7] used the idea of this novel space and presented theorems for two self-mappings in the framework of bi-CVMSs. In 2021, Beg et al. [8] reinforced the conception of bi-CVMSs and proved extrapolated fixed point results. Afterwards, Gnanaprakasam et al. [9] presented results for a contractive-type condition in the framework of bi-CVMSs and explored the solution to linear equations. Recently, Asifa et al. [10] obtained common fixed point results in a bi-CVMS for contractions containing control functions of two variables. For further details in this direction, we refer the reader to [11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31].
In this research article, we develop some common fixed point results in the context of bi-CVMSs for generalized contractions containing point-dependent control functions. We explore the solution of the Fredholm integral equation as an application.
2. Preliminaries
We represent as a set of real numbers, as a set of complex numbers and as a set of bicomplex numbers. Segre [1] defined a bicomplex number in the following way
where the independent units are such that and and is given as
that is
where and If and then the sum is
and the product is
There are four idempotent members in which are and , out of which and are nontrivial such that and Every bicomplex number can uniquely be demonstrated as the mixture of and , namely
This description of is familiar, as the idempotent representation of and the complex coefficients and are called idempotent components of .
An element is called invertible if ∃ in such a way that , and is said to be the multiplicative inverse of Hence, is said to be the multiplicative inverse of
An element is nonsingular if and singular if The inverse of is defined as
Zero is the only member in which does not have an inverse (multiplicative) and in , is the only member that does not have an inverse (multiplicative). We represent the set of singular members of and by and , respectively. In there are many elements which do not possess a multiplicative inverse. Let us denote the set of singular members of by and thus
A bicomplex number is said to be degenerated if the matrix
is degenerated. Thus, exists and is given as

5. Conclusions
Complex-valued metric spaces and their several generalizations allow us to consider the distances between points in a set, either classically or non-classically. In this draft, we have obtained common fixed-point results for rational contractions involving point-dependent control functions in bi-CVMSs. In this way, we have derived the key results of Beg et al. [8], Gnanaprakasam et al. [9] and Tassaddiq et al. [10] from our results. We apply our result to solve the Fredholm integral equation as an application.
For future work, one can expand the notion of bi-CVMSs to hypercomplex-valued metric spaces. Moreover, the results established in this paper can be lengthened to set-valued mappings. Some integral and differential inclusions can be explored to apply fixed-point theorems for set-valued mappings in the framework of bi-CVMSs.
