In 2020, Olia et al. [Olia, Z. E. D. D., Gordji, M. E. and Bagha, D. E. (2020). Banach fixed point theorem on orthogonal cone metric spaces. FACTA Universitatis (NIS) Ser. Math. Inform, 35, 1239-1250] examined orthogonal cone metric spaces. They assumed that P is a normal cone with normal constant K and that self mapping T is orthogonal continuous on the orthogonal cone metric space X in their study. This study now presentes certain required definitions on orthogonal cone metric spaces that were not previously given in [9]. The examples that show the link between existing and new definitions have also been included. The results are also generalized by eliminating the normalcy condition and utilizing point orthogonal continuity instead of general orthogonal continuity in the major results of [9]. The fundamental finding of the study is then generalized by removing the requirement of orthogonal continuity and introducing normality. In addition, certain outcomes of stated theorems are proven, and some examples are provided to demonstrate these theorems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Very recently Jain et al. (J. Inequal. Appl. 2022:73, 2022) introduced the concept of multivalued F-contraction with altering distance function and investigated the existence of best proximity points for this class of mappings. In this article we prove that the existence of best proximity points for multivalued F-contraction non-self mappings can be obtained from the corresponding fixed point result for multivalued F-contraction self mappings, and so the main conclusion due to Jain et al. is not a real generalization of fixed point theory.

Recently, Altun et al. [1] introduced the notion of p-proximal contractions and discussed about best proximity point results for this class of mappings. Then Gabeleh and Markin [4] showed that the best proximity point theorem proved by Altun et al. in [1] follows from the fixed point theory. In this short note, we show that if the p-proximal contraction constant k < 1 3 then the existence of best proximity point for p-proximal contractions follows from the celebrated Banach contraction principle.

Very recently I. Beg et al. [I. Beg, A. Bartwal, S. Rawat and R.C. Dimri, Best proximity points in noncommutative Banach spaces, Comp. Appl. Math., 41, 41 (2022)] introduced the concepts of k-ordered proximal contraction of the first kind and k-ordered proximal contraction of the second kind for non-self mappings and investigated the existence of best proximity points for these two classes of mappings. In the current paper, we show that their existence results are straightforward consequences of the same conclusions in fixed point theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of this paper is twofold. Firstly, certain common fixed point theorems are established via φ-contractive multivalued mappings involving point-dependent control functions as coefficients in the framework of complex valued metric spaces. Our results improve and extend several results in the existing literature. Moreover, this section is equipped by some illustrative examples in support of our results. Secondly, we point out some slip-ups in the examples of some recent papers based on multivalued contractive mappings in complex valued metric spaces. Our observations are also authenticated with the aid of some appropriate examples. Some rectifications to correct the erratic examples are also suggested. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this short paper we show that the results obtained by [N. Hussain, V. Parvaneh, B. Samet and C. Vetro, Some fixed point theorems for generalized contractive mappings in complete metric spaces, Fixed Point Theory and Applications (2015) 2015:185] can be obtained without the continuity assumption for the self mapping.

In this note, we give affirmative answers to two open problems posed by Agarwal et al. in the paper (J Optim Theory Appl 163(2):482-490, ). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We show that the result on cyclic weak contractions of Harjani et al. (J. Nonlinear Sci. Appl. 6:279-284, ) holds without the assumption of compactness of the underlying space, and also without the assumption of continuity of the given mapping. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic stability of the trajectories governed by some delay differential inequalities on time scales. Based on time scale theory and the fixed-point theorem, some sufficient conditions are obtained for guaranteeing asymptotic stability. It is interesting that the inequalities studied in this paper include the generalized Halanay inequalities. Due to the fact that dynamic systems on a time scale unify discrete and continuous systems, the results of this paper have wider application value. Furthermore, some numerical examples verify the main results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Muhammad Arshad, Aftab Hussain and Akbar Azam (Fixed point of ff-Geraghty contraction with applications, U.P.B. Sci. Bull., Series A, Vol. 78, Iss. 2, 2016) improved the notion of ff-Geraghty contraction type mappings and established some common fixed point theorems for a pair of ff-admissible mappings under the improved notion of ff-Geraghty contraction type condition in a complete metric space. But we observe some gaps in the proof of some theorems in the paper due to some insufficiency in the defining condition of the associated contraction mappings. The aim of this paper is to attempt to bridge the gaps by proposing some modifications in the contraction condition of the mappings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Several recent papers in digital topology have sought to obtain fixed point results by mimicking the use of tools from classical topology, such as complete metric spaces and homotopy invariant fixed point theory. We show that some of the published assertions based on these tools are incorrect or trivial; we offer improvements on others. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We obtain results on the existence and approximation of fixed points of enriched contractions in quasi-Banach spaces and thus extend the previous results for enriched contractions defined on Banach spaces [Berinde, V.; Păcurar, M. Approximating fixed points of enriched contractions in Banach spaces. J. Fixed Point Theory Appl. 22 (2020), no. 2, Paper No. 38, 10 pp.]. The theoretical results are illustrated by means of an appropriate example of enriched contraction on a quasi-Banach space which is not a Banach space and thus show that our new results are effective generalizations of the previous ones in literature.

The aim of this paper is to present some new observations about w-distance (in the sense of O. Kada, T. Suzuki, W. Takahashi, Nonconvex minimization theorems and fixed point theorems in complete metric spaces, Math. Japonica 44, 2 (1996), 381-391) and F-contractions (in the sense of D. Wardowski, Fixed points of a new type of contractive mappings in complete metric spaces, Fixed Point Theory Appl., 2012:94 (2012)). Both concepts have been examined separately a lot, but there have been few attempts to connect them. This article is a step in filling this gap. Besides, some comments and improvements of results in the existing literature are presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Recently, Erdal Karapinar ([8] Karapinar E., α - ψ- Geraghty contraction type mappings and some related fixed point results, Filomat, 28:1 37-48 (2014)) introduced the notion of generalized α - ψ- Geraghty contraction type mappings in the setting of a metric space and proved the existence and uniqueness of a fixed point of such mappings. But we observe that the condition (H1) for the uniqueness of the fixed point of such mappings as proposed by Karapinar is not enough. The aim of this paper is to attempt to rectify it by proposing a slightly stronger condition in place of condition (H1). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This document is a retraction notice published in the Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society. The author, Khadime Salame, apologizes to the mathematical community and withdraws three papers related to fixed point theory. The papers attempted to address the question of whether left amenable semitopological semigroups have a certain fixed point property, but each paper contains errors. The author acknowledges these errors and suggests that Lau's conjecture should be regarded as an open question. The author hopes that this question will be resolved in the future.

In the paper, we introduce a new class of noncyclic φ-contractions as a generalization of the class of noncyclic contractions which was first introduced in the paper [R. Esp'ınola, M. Gabeleh, On the structure of minimal sets of relatively nonexpansive mappings, Numerical Functional Analysis and Optimization 34 (8), 845-860, 2013] and study the existence, uniqueness and convergence of a fixed point for such class of noncyclic mapping in the framework of uniformly convex Banach spaces. We obtain existence results of the best proximity points for cyclic φ-contractions as a consequence of our main theorems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we prove the existence and uniqueness of common fixed point of tower type contractive mappings in complete metric (pseudo)modular spaces involving the theoretic relation. However, the newly introduced contraction in this paper further characterize and includes in their full strength several existing results in metrical fixed point theory. Some nontrivial supportive examples were given to justify our result. Our results generalize, improve, and unify some existing results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper we consider second order iterative boundary value problem with Sturm Liouville type boundary conditions and establish the existence of countably many positive symmetric solutions by using Krasnoselskii's fixed point theorem for operator on a cone. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The main purpose of the present paper is to prove the existence of periodic solutions of the three-body problem in the 3D Kepler formulation. We have solved the same problem in the case when the three particles are considered in an external inertial system. We start with the three-body equations of motion, which are a subset of the equations of motion (previously derived by us) for any number of bodies. In the Minkowski space, there are 12 equations of motion. It is proved that three of them are consequences of the other nine, so their number becomes nine, as much as the unknown trajectories are. The Kepler formulation assumes that one particle (the nucleus) is placed at the coordinate origin. The motion of the other two particles is described by a neutral system with respect to the unknown velocities. The state-dependent delays arise as a consequence of the finite vacuum speed of light. We obtain the equations of motion in spherical coordinates and split them into two groups. In the first group all arguments of the unknown functions are delays. We take their solutions as initial functions. Then, the equations of motion for the remaining two particles must be solved to the right of the initial point. To prove the existence–uniqueness of a periodic solution, we choose a space consisting of periodic infinitely smooth functions satisfying some supplementary conditions. Then, we use a suitable operator which acts on these spaces and whose fixed points are periodic solutions. We apply the fixed point theorem for the operators acting on the spaces of periodic functions. In this manner, we show the stability of the He atom in the frame of classical electrodynamics. In a previous paper of ours, we proved the existence of spin functions for plane motion. Thus, we confirm the Bohr and Sommerfeld's hypothesis for the He atom. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Inverse data envelopment analysis (InvDEA) is a remarkable and popular management tool. This paper deals with one application of this tool. In fact, the problem of the merging of units is investigated in the presence of negative data. The problem of merging units refers to the fact that a set of units create a new unit based on synergy to improve their performance. We use multiple objective programming for this purpose and suggest new models based on predetermined conditions for new units. The proposed models estimate inputs and outputs simul- taneously. Importance advantages of the proposed models are: i) We can follow multiple goals in the problem of merging units because mul- tiple objective programming is applied. ii) Models can simultaneously estimate the inputs and outputs of the combined unit. iii) Unlike the existing methods in the InvDEA-based merging literature, the negative data do not need to be transferred to positive data. Finally, a numerical example is used to explain and validate the model proposed in this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper deals with the problem of process faults in the Lorenz system that can affect any of the system parameters and cause the system to exhibit various behaviors. In this paper, the homoclinic orbits in the Lorenz system are described and then the occurrence of process faults in the system is investigated that can cause a homoclinic explosion, bifurcation, change of fixed point, or even instability in the system. In such systems, where a small change in one of the parameters causes large changes in the behavior of the system, to prevent disaster in industrial systems and also to stop the propagation of faults in the system, the faults must be identified as soon as possible. In this paper, the states in the system are estimated by using a reduced-order observer, and the faults are detected. The purpose of this article is to recognize the change in behavior of this system in the face of this type of fault and to express the importance of timely detection and identification of faults in the system so as not to lead to failure and disaster in industrial systems. Finally, the effect of process fault, disturbance, and sensor fault are investigated simultaneously and the states and faults in the system are estimated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A new class of nonlocal boundary value problems consisting of multi-term delay fractional differential equations and multipoint-integral boundary conditions is studied in this paper. We derive a more general form of the solution for the given problem by applying a fractional integral operator of an arbitrary order βξ instead of β1; for details, see Lemma 2.2. The given problem is converted into an equivalent fixed-point problem to apply the tools of fixed-point theory. The existence of solutions for the given problem is established through the use of a nonlinear alternative of the Leray-Schauder theorem, while the uniqueness of its solutions is shown with the aid of Banach's fixed-point theorem. We also discuss the stability criteria, icluding Ulam-Hyers, generalized Ulam-Hyers, Ulam-Hyers-Rassias, and generalized Ulam-Hyers-Rassias stability, for solutions of the problem at hand. For illustration of the abstract results, we present examples. Our results are new and useful for the discipline of multi-term fractional differential equations related to hydrodynamics. The paper concludes with some interesting observations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is devoted to the existence of random mild solutions for a general class of second-order abstract random differential equations with state-dependent delay. The technique used is a generalization of the classical Darbo fixed point theorem for Fréchet spaces associated with the concept of measures of noncompactness. An application related to partial random differential equations with state-dependent delay is presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we introduce a new iterative scheme to approximate the fixed point of generalized α-nonexpansive mappings. we first prove that the proposed iteration process is faster than all of Picard, Mann, Ishikawa, Noor, Agarwal, Abbas and Thakur processes for contractive mappings. We also obtain some weak and strong convergence theorems for generalized α-nonexpansive mappings. Using the example presented in [R. Pant and R. Shukla, Approximating fixed point of generalized α-nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces, J. Numer. Funct. Anal. Optim. 38(2017) 248-266.], we compare the convergence behavior of the new iterative process with other iterative processes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Improving the control performance of dynamic vibration absorbers has recently been effective by introducing a grounded negative stiffness device. However, the negative stiffness structure is unstable and difficult to achieve in engineering practice , and its major drawback is that it amplif ies the vibration response of the primary system at low frequency region. Meanwhile, some mechanical devices can be combined to make the DVA work even better with a grounded positive stiffness. For this purpose, this paper combines for the first time the control effect of the inerter device and grounded positive stiffness into a three-element DVA model in order to better improve vibration reduction of an undamped primary system under excitation. First, the dynamic equation of motion of the system is written according to Newton 's second law. Then, the steady-state displacement response of the primary system under harmonic excitation is calculated. In order to minimize the resonant response of the primary system around its natural frequency, the extended fixed point theory is applied. Thus, the optimized parameters such as the tuning frequency ratio, the stiffness ratio , and the approximate damping ratio are determined as a function of mass ratio and inerter – mass ratio. From the results analysis, it was found that the inerter – mass ratio has a better working range to guarantee the stability of the coupled system. Then , study on the effect of inerter – mass ratio on the primary system response is carried out. It can be seen that increasing the inerter – mass ratio in the optimal working range can reduce the response of the primary system beyond its uncontrolled static response. However, it is necessary to avoid the situation where the inerter – mass ratio is very large because it can lead to unrealistic optimal parameters. Finally, comparison with other DVA models is show n under harmonic and random excitation of the primary system. It is found that the proposed DVA model in this paper has high control performance and can be used in many engineering practice s. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this paper is to study the coupled fixed point of a class of mixed monotone operators in the setting of a subordinate semimetric space. Using the symmetry between the subordinate semimetric space and a JS-space, we generalize the results of Senapati and Dey on JS-spaces. In this paper, we obtain some coupled fixed point results and support them with some examples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is dedicated to the memory of the esteemed Serbian mathematician Slaviša B. Prešić (1933–2008). The primary aim of this survey paper is to compile articles on Prešić-type mappings published since 1965. Additionally, it introduces a novel class of symmetric contractions known as Prešić–Menger and Prešić–Ćirić–Menger contractions, thereby enriching the literature on Prešić-type mappings. The paper endeavors to furnish young researchers with a comprehensive resource in functional and nonlinear analysis. The relevance of Prešić's method, which generalizes Banach's theorem from 1922, remains significant in metric fixed point theory, as evidenced by recent publications. The overview article addresses the growing importance of Prešić's approach, coupled with new ideas, reflecting the ongoing advancements in the field. Additionally, the paper establishes the existence and uniqueness of fixed points in Menger spaces, contributing to the filling of gaps in the existing literature on Prešić's works while providing valuable insights into this specialized domain.

This paper aims to study a class of enterprise cluster models with feedback controls and time-varying delays on time scales. Based on periodic time scales theory and the fixed point theorem of strict-set-contraction, some new sufficient conditions for the existence of positive periodic solutions are obtained. Finally, two examples are presented to verify the validity and applicability of the main results in this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Soft set theory has attracted many researchers from several different branches. Sound theoretical improvements are accompanied with successful applications to practical solutions of daily life problems. However, some of the attempts of generalizing crisp concepts into soft settings end up with completely equivalent structures. This paper deals with such a case. The paper mainly presents the metrizability of the soft topology induced by a soft metric. The soft topology induced by a soft metric is known to be homeomorphic to a classical topology. In this work, it is shown that this classical topology is metrizable. Moreover, the explicit construction of an ordinary metric that induces the classical topology is given. On the other hand, it is also shown that soft metrics are actually cone metrics. Cone metrics are already proven to be an unsuccessful attempt of generalizing metrics. These results clarify that most, if not all, properties of soft metric spaces could be directly imported from the related classical theory. The paper concludes with an application of the findings, i.e., a new soft fixed point theorem is stated and proven with the help of the obtained homemorphism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we investigated several new fixed points theorems for multivalued mappings in the framework b -metric spaces. We first generalized S -iterative schemes for multivalued mappings to above spaces by means of a convex structure and then we developed the existence of fixed points and approximate endpoints of the multivalued contraction mappings using iteration techniques. Furthermore, we introduced the modified S -iteration process for approximating a common endpoint of a multivalued α s -nonexpansive mapping and a multivalued mapping satisfying conditon (E ′ ) . We also showed that this new iteration process converges faster than the S -iteration process in the sense of Berinde. Some convergence results for this iterative procedure to a common endpoint under some certain additional hypotheses were proved. As an application, we applied the S -iteration process in finding the solution to a class of nonlinear quadratic integral equations. In this paper, we investigated several new fixed points theorems for multivalued mappings in the framework -metric spaces.

The aim of this paper is to determine the eigenvalue intervals of μk; 1 < k < n for which an iterative systems of a class of fractional-order differential equations with parameterized integral boundary conditions (BCs) has at least one positive solution by means of standard fixed point theorem of cone type. To the best of our knowledge, this will be the first time that we attempt to reach such findings for the topic at hand in the literature. The obtained results in the paper are illustrated with an example for their feasibility. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A general programming interface for parameter identification for marine ecosystem models is introduced. A comprehensive solver software for periodic steady-states is implemented that includes a fixed point iteration (spin-up) and a Newton solver. The software is based on the Portable, Extensible Toolkit for Scientific Computation (PETSc) library and uses transport matrices for efficient off-line simulation in 3-D. In addition to the usage of PETSc's parallel data structures and PETSc's Newton solver, an own load balancing algorithm is implemented. A simple verification is carried out using a well investigated biogeochemical model for phosphate (PO4) and dissolved organic phosphorous (DOP) with 7 parameters. The model is coupled via the interface to transport matrices that correspond to a longitudinal and latitudinal resolution of 2.8125° and 15 vertical layers. Initial tests show that both solvers and the load balancing algorithm work correctly. Further experiments demonstrate the robustness of the Newton solver with respect to parameter variations. Moreover, the numerical tests reveal that, with optimal control settings, the Newton solver converges at least 6 times faster towards a solution than the spin-up. However, additional twin experiments reveal differences between both solvers regarding a derivative-based black-box optimization. Whereas an optimization run with spin-up-based model evaluations is capable to identify model parameters of a refer ence solution, Newton-based model evaluations result in an inaccurate gradient approximation.

In this paper, we investigate the existence of solution and extremal solutions for an initial-value problem of perturbed functional fractional differential equations with Caputo-Hadamard derivative. Our analysis relies on the fixed point theorem of Burton and Kirk and the concept of upper and lower solutions combined with a fixed point theorem in ordered Banach space established by Dhage and Henderson.

In this paper we relate a fundamental parameter of a random graph, its degree sequence, to a simple model of nearly independent binomial random variables. As a result, many interesting functions of the joint distribution of graph degrees, such as the distribution of the median degree, become amenable to estimation. Our result is established by proving an asymptotic formula conjectured in 1990 for the number of graphs with given degree sequence. In particular, this gives an asymptotic formula for the number of d-regular graphs for all d, as n→∞. The key to our results is a new approach to estimating ratios between point probabilities in the space of degree sequences of the random graph, including analysis of fixed points of the associated operators.

In order to meet the needs of military, road construction, multimedia industry and other aspects, UAVs are gradually given more functions. As the basic function of UAV applications, the fixed-point delivery problem model has higher and higher accuracy requirements. However, in the actual scene, the UAV delivery problem is affected by the interaction of various factors such as flight height, air resistance, and dive angle, which makes it difficult to achieve high stability and high hit accuracy. This paper will analyze the complex motion model based on the fixed-point delivery of explosives by UAV, study the relationship between the stability of UAV delivery and the hit accuracy, and analyze the influence of relevant parameters on the problem by using modeling. In this paper, a multivariate nonlinear continuous time change model is proposed, and a continuous time slice discretization idea operation model is introduced to approximate the time slice splitting inside the UAV launch motion. Secondly, the design quantified evaluation index reaction the initial velocity of the explosive, the launch Angle, the height off the ground and other parameters to analyze the model. Finally, the best scheduling strategy is obtained and verified by using the idea of variable traversal and trial- and-error simulation. The experimental results show that the variation of UAV flying height, speed, depression and other interference factors is consistent with the prediction of score and hit accuracy, according to the environment setting of this model, when the UAV is 300 meters above the ground and 290 meters away from the target horizontal position, the delivery speed is 250m/s, and the pitch angle is about 27°, the fixed-point delivery of explosives is the best strategy.

In this paper, we introduce a regularized iterative scheme for solving the split common fixed point problem of asymptotically demicontractive and demimetric mappings in real Banach spaces. We then prove that the iterative scheme converges strongly to a solution to the problem, which is also a solution to a variational inequality problem. A split feasibility problem is also considered with the aid of our scheme. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of the paper is to re-visit the 1990 Khamsi-Kozlowski-Reich Fixed Point Theorem, which initiated a flourishing field of fixed point theory in modular function spaces. Our result generalises this theorem as well as other classical fixed point theorems, including celebrated 1965 result of Kirk. As the common setting for our investigation, we choose the modulated LTI-spaces defined as modular spaces equipped with a sequential convergence structure, which allows also to use convergence types not associated with any topology (like convergence almost everywhere). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we use an inequality involving a coupled multivalued mapping and a singlevalued mapping to obtain a coupled coincidence point theorem. We discuss special conditions under which coupled common fixed point theorems are obtained. The result combines several ideas prevalent in fixed point theory studies. There are several corollaries and illustrative examples. The Hausdorff-Pompeiu metric between sets is used. The work is in the context of metric spaces and is a part of set-valued analysis with the singlevalued consequences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we present an existence theorem for the problem of discontinuous dynamical system related to ordinary differential inclusion, based on the use of the concepts related to weighted spaces introduced by G'orka and Rybka, without using any fixed point theorem. The solution concept in this theorem is considered to belong to the weighted space. For comparison with the classical case and as an application of the theorem, we give an example problem that has such a solution but no continuously differentiable solution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we present new existence results for the quasivariational inequality problem (QV I) in reflexive Banach spaces using the fixed point method with quasi-monotonicity and local upper sign-continuity assumptions. These results improve upon previous ones which only required a weaker monotonicity condition and did not impose compactness on the involved set. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Food security is a basic human right that guarantees humans an adequate amount of nutritious food. However, plant viruses and agricultural pests cause real damage to food sources, leading to negative impacts on meeting the human right of obtaining a sufficient amount of food. Understanding infectious disease dynamics can help us to design appropriate control and prevention strategies. Although cassava is among the most produced and consumed crops and greatly contributes to food security, cassava mosaic disease causes a decrease in photosynthesis and reduces cassava yield, resulting in a lack of crops. This paper developed a fractional model for cassava mosaic disease (CMD) dynamics based on the Caputo–Fabrizio (CF) fractional derivative to decrease cassava plant infection. We used fixed-point theory to study the existence of a unique solution in the form of the CMD model. A stability analysis of the model was conducted by using fixed-point theory and the Picard technique. A new numerical scheme was proposed for solving the nonlinear system of a fractional model in the sense of the CF-derivative and applied to obtain numerical simulations for a fractional model of the dynamics of CMD. The obtained results are described using figures that show the dynamics and behaviors of the compartments of CMD, and it is concluded that decreasing the population of whitefly vectors can prevent cassava plants from becoming infected better than increasing the recovery rate of the infected cassava plants.

This paper was to present a mathematical model of non-integer order and demonstrated the detrimental consequences of lumpy skin disease (LSD). The LSD model included primarily affected cattle and other animals, particularly buffalo and cows. Given the significant drop in the number of livestock and dairy products, it was essential to use mathematical models to raise awareness of this issue. We examined the suggested LSD model to understand as well as every possible avenue that could result in the illness spreading throughout the community. Ulam-Hyers stability made it easier to analyze the stability of the LSD model, and fixed-point theory was a valuable tool for finding the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the suggested model. We have used new versions of power law and exponential decay fractional numerical methods. Numerical calculations were showing the influence of various fractional orders on the spread of disease and provided more informations than integer orders for the sensitive parameters of the proposed model. The graphical depiction is showed an understanding of the proposed LSD model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this paper is to establish some fixed point results for enriched Kannan-type mappings in convex metric spaces. We first give an affirmative answer to a recent Berinde and Păcurar's question (Remark 2.3) [J. Comput. Appl. Math., 386 (2021), 113217]. Furthermore, we establish the existence and uniqueness of fixed points for Suzuki-enriched Kannan-type mappings in the setting of convex metric spaces. Finally, we present an application to approximate the solution of the Volterra integral equations to support our results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
