Fixed point theorems in complex valued fuzzy b-metric spaces with application to integral equations

In this paper, firstly, we introduce the concept of a complex valued fuzzy b-metric space, which is inspired by the work of Shukla et al. [24]. Also, we investigate some of its topological properties which strengthen this concept. Next, we establish some fixed point theorems in the context of complex valued fuzzy b-metric spaces and give suitable examples to illustrate the usability of the obtained main results. These results extend and generalize the corresponding results given in the existing literature. Moreover, we provide some applications on the existence and uniqueness of solutions for a certain type of nonlinear integral equations. WOS:000661139500013 2-s2.0-85108514440
