Abstract

:
In this paper, we prove some common fixed-point theorems on complex partial metric space. The presented results generalize and expand some of the well-known results in the literature. We also explore some of the applications of our key results.

1. Introduction

Azam et al. [1] introduced the concept of complex-valued metric spaces and studied some fixed point theorems for mappings satisfying a rational inequality.
Two years later, in [2], Rao et al. discussed for the first time the idea of complex-valued b-metric spaces.
In 2017, Dhivya and Marudai [3] introduced the concept of complex partial metric space and suggested a plan to expand the results, as well as proving common fixed-point theorems under the rational expression contraction condition. This idea has been followed by Gunaseelan [4], who introduced the concept of complex partial b-metric spaces and discussed some results of fixed-point theory for self-mappings in these new spaces.
In [5], Prakasam and Gunaseelan proved the existence and uniqueness of a common fixed-point (with an illustrative example) theorem using CLR and E.A. properties in complex partial b-metric spaces. Their proved results generalize and extend some of the well-known results in the literature.
In [6], Gunaseelan et al. proved a fixed-point theorem in complex partial b-metric spaces under a contraction mapping. They also gave some applications of their main results.
In this paper, we prove some common fixed-point theorems on complex partial metric space.

2. Preliminaries

Let C be the set of complex numbers and τ 1 , τ 2 , τ 3 C . Define a partial order ⪯ on C as follows:
τ 1 τ 2 if and only if R ( τ 1 ) R ( τ 2 ) , I ( τ 1 ) I ( τ 2 ) .
Consequently, one can infer that τ 1 τ 2 if one of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i)
R ( τ 1 ) = R ( τ 2 ) , I ( τ 1 ) < I ( τ 2 ) ,
(ii)
R ( τ 1 ) < R ( τ 2 ) , I ( τ 1 ) = I ( τ 2 ) ,
(iii)
R ( τ 1 ) < R ( τ 2 ) , I ( τ 1 ) < I ( τ 2 ) ,
(iv)
R ( τ 1 ) = R ( τ 2 ) , I ( τ 1 ) = I ( τ 2 ) .
In particular, we write τ 1 τ 2 if τ 1 τ 2 , and one of ( i ) , ( i i ) and ( i i i ) is satisfied and we write τ 1 τ 2 if only ( i i i ) is satisfied. Notice that
(a)
If 0 τ 1 τ 2 , then | τ 1 | < | τ 2 | ,
(b)
If τ 1 τ 2 and τ 2 τ 3 , then τ 1 τ 3 ,
(c)
If η , γ R and η γ , then η τ 1 γ τ 1 for all 0 τ 1 C .
Here C + ( = { ( , y ) | , y R + } ) and R + ( = { R | 0 } ) denote the set of non-negative complex numbers and the set of non negative real numbers, respectively.
Now, let us recall some basic concepts and notations that will be used below.
Definition 1 
( [3]).  A complex partial metric on a non-void set G is a function ϱ c b : G × G C + such that for all θ , ω , ϑ G :
(i) 
0 ϱ c b ( θ , θ ) ϱ c b ( θ , ω ) ( s m a l l s e l f - d i s t a n c e s )
(ii) 
ϱ c b ( θ , ω ) = ϱ c b ( ω , θ ) ( s y m m e t r y )
(iii) 
ϱ c b ( θ , θ ) = ϱ c b ( θ , ω ) = ϱ c b ( ω , ω ) if and only if θ = ω ( e q u a l i t y )
(iv) 
ϱ c b ( θ , ω ) ϱ c b ( θ , ϑ ) + ϱ c b ( ϑ , ω ) ϱ c b ( ϑ , ϑ ) ( t r i a n g u l a r i t y ) .
A complex partial metric space is a pair ( G , ϱ c b ) such that G is a non-void set and ϱ c b is the complex partial metric on G.
Definition 2
( [3]).  Let ( G , c b ) be a complex partial metric space. Let { θ n } be any sequence in G. Then
(i) 
The sequence { θ n } is said to converge to θ, if lim n c b ( θ n , θ ) = c b ( θ , θ ) .
(ii) 
The sequence { θ n } is said to be a Cauchy sequence in ( G , c b ) if
lim n , m c b ( θ n , θ m ) exists and is finite.
(iii) 
( G , c b ) is said to be a complete complex partial metric space if for every Cauchy sequence { θ n } in G there exists θ G such that
lim n , m c b ( θ n , θ m ) = lim n c b ( θ n , θ ) = c b ( θ , θ ) .
(iv) 
A mapping Π : G G is said to be continuous at θ 0 G if for every ϵ > 0 , there exists δ > 0 such that Π ( B c b ( θ 0 , δ ) ) B c b ( Π ( θ 0 , ϵ ) ) .
Definition 3
( [3]).  Let Π and Ψ be self-mappings of non-void set G. A point G is called a common fixed point of Π and Ψ if = Π = Ψ .
Theorem 1
( [3]).  Let ( G , ) be a partially ordered set and suppose that there exists a complex partial metric ϱ c b in G such that ( G , ϱ c b ) is a complete complex partial metric space. Let Π , Ψ : G G be a pair of weakly increasing mappings, and suppose that for every comparable , y G we have either
ϱ c b ( Π , Ψ y ) a ϱ c b ( , Π ) ϱ c b ( y , Ψ y ) ϱ c b ( , y ) + b ϱ c b ( , y )
for ϱ c b ( , y ) 0 with a 0 , b 0 , a + b < 1 , or
ϱ c b ( Π , Ψ y ) = 0 if ϱ c b ( , y ) = 0 .
If Π or Ψ is continuous, then Π and Ψ have a common fixed point G and ϱ c b ( , ) = 0 .
Inspired by Theorem 1, here we prove some common fixed-point theorems on complex partial metric space with an application. For complex partial metric space, we will use the CPMS notation.

3. Main Results

Theorem 2.
Let ( G , c b ) be a complete CPMS and Π , Ψ : G G be two continuous mappings such that
c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) max { c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) , c b ( ω , Ψ ω ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ , Ψ ω ) + c b ( ω , Π θ ) ) } ,
for all θ , ω G , where 0 < 1 and c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) 0 . Then, the pair ( Π , Ψ ) has a unique common fixed point and c b ( θ * , θ * ) = 0 .
Proof. 
Let θ 0 be arbitrary point in G and define a sequence { θ n } as follows:
θ 2 n + 1 = Π θ 2 n a n d θ 2 n + 2 = Ψ θ 2 n + 1 , n = 0 , 1 , 2 ,
Then by (1) and (2), we obtain
c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) = c b ( Π θ 2 n , Ψ θ 2 n + 1 ) max { c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n , Π θ 2 n ) , c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , Ψ θ 2 n + 1 ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n , Ψ θ 2 n + 1 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , Π θ 2 n ) ) } max { c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 2 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 1 ) ) } max { c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 1 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 1 ) ) } = max { c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) ) }
Case I:
If max { c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) ) } = c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) , then we have
c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) .
This implies 1 , which is a contradiction.
Case II:
If max { c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) ) } = c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , then we have
c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) .
From the next step, we have
c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) max { c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) , c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) ) } .
The following three cases arise.
Case IIa:
c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) ,
which implies 1 , which is a contradiction.
Case IIb:
c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) ) .
This implies that
c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) ( 2 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) .
Since a : = 2 < 1 , we get c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) a c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) . Therefore { θ n } n N is a Cauchy sequence in G.
Case IIc:
c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) .
From (3) and (5), n = 0 , 1 , 2 , , we get
c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) n + 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) .
For m , n N , with m > n , we have
c b ( θ n , θ m ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ m ) c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 1 ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ m ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) + c b ( θ n + 2 , θ m ) c b ( θ n + 2 , θ n + 2 ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) + c b ( θ n + 2 , θ m ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) + c b ( θ n + 2 , θ n + 3 ) + + c b ( θ m 2 , θ m 1 ) + c b ( θ m 1 , θ m ) .
Moreover, by using (5), we get
c b ( θ n , θ m ) n c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + n + 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + n + 2 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + + m 2 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + m 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) = i = 1 m n i + n 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) .
Therefore
| c b ( θ n , θ m ) | i = 1 m n i + n 1 | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | = t = n m 1 t | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | i = n | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | = n 1 | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | .
Then, we have
| c b ( θ n , θ m ) | n 1 | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | 0 a s n .
Hence, { θ n } is a Cauchy sequence in G.
Case III:
If max { c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) ) } = 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) ) .
Then, we have
c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) )
Hence,
c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) 2 c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) .
For the next step, we have
c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) max { c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) , c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) ) } .
Then, we have the following three cases:
Case IIIa:
c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) ,
which implies 1 , which is a contradiction.
Case IIIb:
c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) .
Then by (6) and (7), we get c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) γ c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) , where γ = max , 2 < 1 . Hence { θ n } n N is a Cauchy sequence in G.
Case IIIc:
c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) + c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) ) .
Hence, we obtain
c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) ( 2 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) .
Using (6) and (8) yields
c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) ,
where 0 = 2 < 1 .
Then, n = 0 , 1 , 2 , , and we get
c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) n + 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) .
For m , n N , with m > n , we have
c b ( θ n , θ m ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ m ) c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 1 ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ m ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) + c b ( θ n + 2 , θ m ) c b ( θ n + 2 , θ n + 2 ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) + c b ( θ n + 2 , θ m ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) + c b ( θ n + 2 , θ n + 3 ) + + c b ( θ m 2 , θ m 1 ) ) + c b ( θ m 1 , θ m ) .
Using (9), we get
c b ( θ n , θ m ) n c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + n + 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + n + 2 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + + m 2 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + m 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) = i = 1 m n i + n 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) .
Therefore,
| c b ( θ n , θ m ) | i = 1 m n i + n 1 | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | = t = n m 1 t | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | i = n t | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | = n 1 | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | .
Hence, we have
| c b ( θ n , θ m ) | n 1 | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | 0 a s n .
Hence, { θ n } is a Cauchy sequence in G. In all cases above discussed, we get the sequence { θ n } n N , which is a Cauchy sequence. Since G is complete, there exists θ * G such that θ n θ * as n and
c b ( θ * , θ * ) = lim n c b ( θ * , θ n ) = lim n c b ( θ n , θ n ) = 0
By the continuity of Π , it follows that θ 2 n + 1 = Π θ 2 n Π θ * as n .
i . e . , c b ( Π θ * , Π θ * ) = lim n c b ( Π θ * , Π θ 2 n ) = lim n c b ( Π θ 2 n , Π θ 2 n ) .
However,
c b ( Π θ * , Π θ * ) = lim n c b ( Π θ 2 n , Π θ 2 n ) = lim n c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 1 ) = 0 .
Next, we have to prove that θ * is a fixed point of Π .
c b ( Π θ * , θ * ) c b ( Π θ * , Π θ 2 n ) + c b ( Π θ 2 n , θ * ) c b ( Π θ 2 n , Π θ 2 n ) .
As n , we obtain | c b ( Π θ * , θ * ) | 0 . Thus, c p ( Π θ * , θ * ) = 0 . Hence c b ( θ * , θ * ) = c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) = c b ( Π θ * , Π θ * ) = 0 and Π θ * = θ * . In the same way, we have θ * G such that θ n θ * as n and
c b ( θ * , θ * ) = lim n c b ( θ * , θ n ) = lim n c b ( θ n , θ n ) = 0
By the continuity of Π , it follows θ 2 n + 2 = Ψ θ 2 n + 1 Ψ θ * as n .
i . e . , c b ( Ψ θ * , Ψ θ * ) = lim n c b ( Ψ θ * , Ψ θ 2 n + 1 ) = lim n c b ( Ψ θ 2 n + 1 , Ψ θ 2 n + 1 ) .
However,
c b ( Ψ θ * , Ψ θ * ) = lim n c b ( Ψ θ 2 n + 1 , Ψ θ 2 n + 1 ) = lim n c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 2 ) = 0 .
Next we have to prove that θ * is a fixed point of Ψ .
c b ( Ψ θ * , θ * ) c b ( Ψ θ * , Ψ θ 2 n + 1 ) + c b ( Ψ θ 2 n + 1 , θ * ) c b ( Ψ θ 2 n + 1 , Π θ 2 n + 1 ) .
As n , we obtain | c b ( Ψ θ * , θ * ) | 0 . Thus, c p ( Ψ θ * , θ * ) = 0 . Hence, c b ( θ * , θ * ) = c b ( θ * , Ψ θ * ) = c b ( Ψ θ * , Ψ θ * ) = 0 and Ψ θ * = θ * . Therefore, θ * is a common fixed point of the pair ( Π , Ψ ) .
To prove uniqueness, let us consider ω * G is another common fixed point for the pair ( Π , Ψ ) . Then
c b ( θ * , ω * ) = c b ( Π θ * , Ψ ω * ) max { c b ( θ * , ω * ) , c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) , c b ( ω * , Ψ ω * ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ * , Ψ ω * ) + c b ( ω * , Π θ * ) ) } max { c b ( θ * , ω * ) , c b ( θ * , θ * ) , c b ( ω * , ω * ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ * , ω * ) + c b ( ω * , θ * ) ) } c b ( θ * , ω * ) .
This implies that θ * = ω * . □
In the absence of the continuity condition for the mappings Π and Ψ , we get the the following theorem.
Theorem 3.
Let ( G , c b ) be a complete CPMS and Π , Ψ : G G be two mappings such that
c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) max { c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) , c b ( ω , Ψ ω ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ , Ψ ω ) + c b ( ω , Π θ ) ) } ,
for all θ , ω G , where 0 < 1 and c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) 0 . Then, the pair ( Π , Ψ ) has a unique common fixed point and c b ( θ * , θ * ) = 0 .
Proof. 
Following from Theorem 2, we get that the sequence { θ n } is a Cauchy sequence. Since G is complete, there exists θ * G such that θ n θ * as n .
Since Π and Ψ are not continuous, we have c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) = ϑ > 0 .
Then, we estimate
ϑ = c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + c b ( θ 2 i + 2 , Π θ * ) c b ( θ 2 i + 2 , θ 2 i + 2 ) c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + c b ( θ 2 i + 2 , Π θ * ) c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + c b ( Ψ θ 2 i + 1 , Π θ * ) c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + max { c b ( θ 2 i + 1 , θ * ) , c b ( θ 2 i + 1 , Ψ θ 2 i + 1 ) , c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 i + 1 , Π θ * ) + c b ( θ * , Ψ θ 2 i + 1 ) ) } c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + max { c b ( θ 2 i + 1 , θ * ) , c b ( θ 2 i + 1 , θ 2 i + 2 ) , c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ 2 i + 1 , Π θ * ) + c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) ) } c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) s c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + ϑ .
This yields
| ϑ | | c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) | + | ϑ | .
By definition,
lim i c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) = c b ( θ * , θ * )
From the Cauchy property of ( θ n ) , the above limit is zero, and then,
| ϑ | | ϑ | .
Hence, 1 , which is a contradiction. Then θ * = Π θ * . In the same way, we obtain θ * = Ψ θ * . Hence θ * is a common fixed point for the pair ( Π , Ψ ) and c b ( θ * , θ * ) = c b ( θ * , Ψ θ * ) = c b ( Ψ θ * , Ψ θ * ) = 0 . Uniqueness of the common fixed point θ * follows from Theorem 2. □
For Π = Ψ , we get the following fixed points results on CPMS.
Theorem 4.
Let ( G , c b ) be a complete CPMS and Π : G G be a continuous mapping such that
c b ( Π θ , Π ω ) max { c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) , c b ( ω , Π ω ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ , Π ω ) + c b ( ω , Π θ ) ) } ,
for all θ , ω G , where 0 < 1 and c b ( Π θ , Π ω ) 0 . Then the pair Π has a unique fixed point and c b ( θ * , θ * ) = 0 .
Remark 1.
Similarly, we get a fixed point result in the absence of continuity condition for the mapping Π.
Corollary 1.
Let ( G , c b ) be a complete CPMS and Ψ : G G be a continuous mapping such that
c b ( Ψ n θ , Ψ n ω ) max { c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Ψ n θ ) , c b ( ω , Ψ n ω ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ , Ψ n ω ) + c b ( ω , Ψ n θ ) ) } ,
for all θ , ω G , where 0 < 1 , c b ( Ψ n θ , Ψ n ω ) 0 and n N . Then, Ψ has a unique fixed point and c b ( θ * , θ * ) = 0 .
Proof. 
By Theorem 2, we get θ * G such that Ψ n θ * = θ * and c b ( θ * , θ * ) = 0 . Then, we get
c b ( Ψ θ * , θ * ) = c b ( Ψ Ψ n θ * , Ψ n θ * ) = c b ( Ψ n Ψ θ * , Ψ n θ * ) max { c b ( Ψ θ * , θ * ) , c b ( Ψ θ * , Ψ n Ψ θ * ) , c b ( θ * , Ψ n θ * ) , 1 2 ( c b ( Ψ θ * , Ψ n θ * ) + c b ( θ * , Ψ n Ψ θ * ) ) } max { c b ( Ψ θ * , θ * ) , c b ( Ψ θ * , Ψ θ * ) , c b ( θ * , θ * ) , 1 2 ( c b ( Ψ θ * , θ * ) + c b ( θ * , Ψ θ * ) ) } = c b ( Ψ θ * , θ * ) .
Hence Ψ n θ * = Ψ θ * = θ * . Then Ψ has a unique fixed point. □
Remark 2.
From the above Corollary 1, similarly, we get a fixed-point result in the absence of continuity condition for the mapping Ψ.
Next, we present a new generalization of a common fixed point theorem on CPMS.
Theorem 5.
Let ( G , c b ) be a complete CPMS and Π , Ψ : G G be two continuous mappings such that
c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) max c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) c b ( ω , Ψ ω ) 1 + c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) 1 + c b ( θ , ω ) ,
for all θ , ω G , where 0 < 1 and c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) 0 . Then, the pair ( Π , Ψ ) has a unique common fixed point and c b ( θ * , θ * ) = 0 .
Proof. 
Let θ 0 be arbitrary point in G and define a sequence { θ n } as follows:
θ 2 n + 1 = Π θ 2 n a n d θ 2 n + 2 = Ψ θ 2 n + 1 , n = 0 , 1 , 2 ,
Then, by (12) and (13), we obtain
c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) = c b ( Π θ 2 n , Ψ θ 2 n + 1 ) max { c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) c b ( Ψ θ 2 n + 1 , Π θ 2 n ) 1 + c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n , Π θ 2 n , ) c b ( Π θ 2 n , Ψ θ 2 n + 1 ) 1 + c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) } max { c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) 1 + c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) 1 + c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) } max { c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) } .
If max { c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) , c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) } = c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) , then
c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) .
This shows that 1 , which is a contradiction. Therefore
c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) c b ( θ 2 n , θ 2 n + 1 ) .
Similarly, we obtain
c b ( θ 2 n + 2 , θ 2 n + 3 ) c b ( θ 2 n + 1 , θ 2 n + 2 ) .
From (14) and (15), n = 0 , 1 , 2 , , we get
c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) n + 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) .
For m , n N , with m > n , we have
c b ( θ n , θ m ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ m ) c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 1 ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ m ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) + c b ( θ n + 2 , θ m ) c b ( θ n + 2 , θ n + 2 ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) + c b ( θ n + 2 , θ m ) c b ( θ n , θ n + 1 ) + c b ( θ n + 1 , θ n + 2 ) + c b ( θ n + 2 , θ n + 3 ) + + c b ( θ m 2 , θ m 1 ) + s m n c b ( θ m 1 , θ m ) .
By using (16), we get
c b ( θ n , θ m ) n c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + n + 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + n + 2 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + + m 2 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) + m 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) = i = 1 m n i + n 1 c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) .
Therefore,
| c b ( θ n , θ m ) | i = 1 m n i + n 1 | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | = i = 1 m n t | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | i = n t | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | = n 1 | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | .
Hence, we have
| c b ( θ n , θ m ) | n 1 | c b ( θ 0 , θ 1 ) | 0 a s n .
Hence, { θ n } is a Cauchy sequence in G. Since G is complete, there exists θ * G such that θ n θ * as n and
c b ( θ * , θ * ) = lim n c b ( θ * , θ n ) = lim n c b ( θ n , θ n ) = 0 .
Since Ψ is continuous, it yields
θ * = lim n θ 2 n + 2 = lim n Ψ θ 2 n + 1 = Ψ lim n θ 2 n + 1 = Ψ θ * .
Similarly, by the continuity of Π , we get θ * = Π θ * . Then the pair ( Π , Ψ ) has a common fixed point. To prove uniqueness, let us consider that ω * G is another common fixed point for the pair ( Π , Ψ ) . Then
c b ( θ * , ω * ) = c b ( Π θ * , Ψ ω * ) max { c b ( θ * , ω * ) , c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) c b ( ω * , Ψ ω * ) 1 + c b ( θ * , ω * ) , c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) c b ( Ψ ω * , Π θ * ) 1 + c b ( θ * , ω * ) } c b ( θ * , ω * )
This implies that θ * = ω * . □
In the absence of the continuity condition for the mapping Π and Ψ in the Theorem 5, we obtain the following result.
Theorem 6.
Let ( G , c b ) be a complete CPMS and Π , Ψ : G G be two mappings such that
c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) max c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) c b ( ω , Ψ ω ) 1 + c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) 1 + c b ( θ , ω ) ,
for all θ , ω G , where 0 < 1 and c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) 0 . Then the pair ( Π , Ψ ) has a unique common fixed point and c b ( θ * , θ * ) = 0 .
Proof. 
Following from Theorem 5, we get that the sequence { θ n } is a Cauchy sequence. Since G is complete, then there exists θ * G such that θ n θ * as n and
c b ( θ * , θ * ) = lim n c b ( θ * , θ n ) = lim n c b ( θ n , θ n ) = 0 .
Since Π and Ψ are not continuous, we have c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) = ϑ > 0 .
Then, we estimate
ϑ = c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + c b ( θ 2 i + 2 , Π θ * ) c b ( θ 2 i + 2 , θ 2 i + 2 ) c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + c b ( Π θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + c b ( Π θ * , Ψ θ 2 i + 1 ) c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + max { c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 1 ) , c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) c b ( θ 2 i + 1 , Ψ θ 2 i + 1 ) 1 + c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 1 ) , c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) c b ( Π θ * , Ψ θ 2 i + 1 ) 1 + c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 1 ) } c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + max { c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 1 ) , c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) c b ( θ 2 i + 1 , θ 2 i + 2 ) 1 + c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 1 ) } , c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) c b ( Π θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) 1 + c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 1 ) } c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + c b ( θ * , Π θ * ) 2 c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) + ϑ 2 .
This yields
| ϑ | | c b ( θ * , θ 2 i + 2 ) | + | ϑ | 2 .
Hence, 1 , which is a contradiction. Then θ * = Π θ * . In the same way, we obtain θ * = Ψ θ * . Hence, θ * is a common fixed point for the pair ( Π , Ψ ) . For uniqueness of the common fixed point, θ * follows from Theorem 5. □
For Π = Ψ , we get the following fixed-points results on CPMS.
Theorem 7.
Let ( G , c b ) be a complete CPMS and Π : G G be a continuous mapping such that
c b ( Π θ , Π ω ) max c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) c b ( ω , Π ω ) 1 + c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) c b ( Π θ , Π ω ) 1 + c b ( θ , ω ) ,
for all θ , ω G , where 0 < 1 and c b ( Π θ , Π ω ) 0 . Then, Π has a unique fixed point and c b ( θ * , θ * ) = 0 .
Remark 3.
Similarly, in the absence of continuity condition, we can get a fixed point result on Π.
Corollary 2.
Let ( G , c b ) be a complete CPMS and Π : G G be a continuous mapping such that
c b ( Π n θ , Π n ω ) max { c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π n θ ) c b ( ω , Π n ω ) 1 + c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π n θ ) c b ( Π n θ , Π ω ) 1 + c b ( θ , ω ) } ,
for all θ , ω G , where 0 < 1 and c b ( Π n θ , Π n ω ) 0 . Then Π has a unique fixed point and c b ( θ * , θ * ) = 0 .
Proof. 
By Theorem 5, we get θ * G such that Π n θ * = θ * and c b ( θ * , θ * ) = 0 . Then we get
c b ( Π θ * , θ * ) = c b ( Π Π n θ * , Π n θ * ) = c b ( Π n Π θ * , Π n θ * ) max { c b ( Π θ * , θ * ) , c b ( Π θ * , Π n Π θ * ) c b ( θ * , Π n θ * ) 1 + c b ( Π θ * , θ * ) , c b ( Π θ * , Π n Π θ * ) c b ( Π n Π θ * , Π n θ * ) 1 + c b ( Π θ * , θ * ) } max { c b ( Π θ * , θ * ) , c b ( Π θ * , Π Π n θ * ) c b ( θ * , Π n θ * ) 1 + c b ( Π θ * , θ * ) , c b ( Π θ * , Π Π n θ * ) c b ( Π Π n θ * , Π n θ * ) 1 + c b ( Π θ * , θ * ) } = c b ( Π θ * , θ * ) .
Hence Π n θ * = Π θ * = θ * . Then, Π has a unique fixed point. □
Remark 4.
From the above corollary 2, similarly, we get a fixed point result in the absence of continuity condition for the mapping Π.
Example 1.
Let G = { 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 } be endowed with the order θ ω if and only if θ ω . Then, ⪯ is a partial order in G. Define the complex partial metric space c b : G × G C + as follows:
( θ , ω ) c b ( θ , ω )
(1,1), (2,2)0
(1,2),(2,1),(1,3),(3,1),(2,3),(3,2),(3,3) e i x
(1,4),(4,1),(2,4),(4,2),(3,4),(4,3),(4,4) 3 e i x
Obviously, ( G , c b ) is a complete CPMS for x [ 0 , π 2 ] . Define Π , Ψ : G G by Π θ = 1 ,
Ψ ( θ ) = 1 if θ { 1 , 2 , 3 } 2 if θ = 4 .
Clearly Π and Ψ are continuous functions. Now, for = 1 3 , we consider the following cases:
(A) 
If θ = 1 and ω G { 4 } , then Π ( θ ) = Ψ ( ω ) = 1 and the conditions of Theorem 2 are satisfied.
(B) 
If θ = 1 , ω = 4 , then Π θ = 1 , Ψ ω = 2 ,
c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) = e i x 3 e i x = max { 3 e i x , 0 , 3 e i x , 1 2 ( e i x + 3 e i x ) } = max { c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) , c b ( ω , Ψ ω ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ , Ψ ω ) + c b ( ω , Π θ ) ) } ,
(C) 
If θ = 2 , ω = 4 , then Π θ = 1 , Ψ ω = 2 ,
c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) = e i x 3 e i x = max { 3 e i x , e i x , 3 e i x , 1 2 ( 0 + 3 e i x ) } = max { c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) , c b ( ω , Ψ ω ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ , Ψ ω ) + c b ( ω , Π θ ) ) } ,
(D) 
If θ = 3 , ω = 4 , then Π θ = 1 , Ψ ω = 2 ,
c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) = e i x 3 e i x = max { 3 e i x , e i x , 3 e i x , 1 2 ( e i x + 3 e i x ) } = max { c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) , c b ( ω , Ψ ω ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ , Ψ ω ) + c b ( ω , Π θ ) ) } ,
(E) 
If θ = 4 , ω = 4 , then Π θ = 2 , Ψ ω = 2 ,
c b ( Π θ , Ψ ω ) = e i x 3 e i x = max { 3 e i x , 3 e i x , 3 e i x , 1 2 ( 3 e i x + 3 e i x ) } = max { c b ( θ , ω ) , c b ( θ , Π θ ) , c b ( ω , Ψ ω ) , 1 2 ( c b ( θ , Ψ ω ) + c b ( ω , Π θ ) ) } ,
Moreover, for = 1 3 , with < 1 , the conditions of Theorem 2 are satisfied. Therefore, 1 is the unique common fixed point of Π and Ψ.

4. Application

Consider the following systems of nonlinear integral equations:
w ( s ) = F ( s ) + a b T 1 ( s , p , w ( p ) ) d p ,
and
z ( s ) = F ( s ) + a b T 2 ( s , p , z ( p ) ) d p ,
where
(i)
F : [ a , b ] R n is a continuous mapping and F ( s ) is a given function in ( C ( [ a , b ] ) , R n ) ,
(ii)
w ( s ) and z ( s ) are unknown variables for each s J = [ a , b ] , b > a 0 ,
(iii)
T 1 ( s , p ) and T 2 ( s , p ) are deterministic kernels defined for s , p J = [ a , b ] .
In this section, we present an existence theorem for a common solution to (18) and (19) that belongs to G = ( C ( J ) , R n ) (the set of continuous functions defined on J) by using the obtained result in Theorem 2. We consider the continuous mappings Π , Ψ : G G given by
Π w ( s ) = F ( s ) + a b T 1 ( s , p , w ( p ) ) d p , w G , s J ,
and
Ψ z ( s ) = F ( s ) + a b T 2 ( s , p , z ( p ) ) d p , z G , s J ,
Then, the existence of a common solution to the nonlinear integral Equations (18) and (19) is equivalent to the existence of a common fixed point of Π and Ψ . It is well known that G, endowed with the metric c b , defined by
c b ( w , z ) = sup s J | w ( s ) z ( s ) | + 2 ,
for all w , z G , is a complete CPMS. G can also be equipped with the partial order ⪯ given by
w , z G , w z if and only w ( s ) z ( s ) , for all s J .
Further, let us consider a system of nonlinear integral equation as (18) and (19) under the following condition hold:
(A)
T 1 , T 2 : J × J × R n R n are continuous functions satisfying
| T 1 ( s , p , w ( p ) ) T 2 ( s , p , z ( p ) ) | S ( w , z ) ( b a ) e t 2 b a , t > 0 ,
where
S ( w , z ) = max { c b ( w , z ) , c b ( w , Π w ) , c b ( z , Ψ z ) , 1 2 ( c b ( w , Ψ z ) + c b ( z , Π w ) ) } .
Theorem 8.
Let ( C ( J ) , R n , c b ) be a complete CPMS; then, the system (18) and (19) under condition (A) have a unique common solution.
Proof. 
For w , z ( C ( J ) , R n ) and s J , we define the continuous mappings Π , Ψ : G G by
Π w ( s ) = F ( s ) + a b T 1 ( s , p , w ( p ) ) d p ,
and
Ψ z ( s ) = F ( s ) + a b T 2 ( s , p , z ( p ) ) d p .
Then, we have
c b ( Π w ( s ) , Ψ z ( s ) ) = sup s J | Π w ( s ) Ψ z ( s ) | + 2 a b | T 1 ( s , p , w ( p ) ) T 2 ( s , p , z ( p ) ) | d p + 2 a b S ( w , z ) ( b a ) e t 2 b a d p + 2 = S ( w , z ) e t = S ( w , z ) = max { c b ( w , z ) , c b ( w , Π w ) , c b ( z , Ψ z ) , 1 2 ( c b ( w , Ψ z ) + c b ( z , Π w ) ) } .
Hence, all the conditions of Theorem 2 are satisfied for 0 < = 1 e t < 1 with t > 0 . Therefore the system of nonlinear integral Equations (18) and (19) have a unique common solution. □
