Trang 31 Introduction
Let (X, d) be a metric space A mapping T : X → X is a contraction if
for all x, y ∈ X, where 0 ≤ k < 1 The Banach Contraction Mapping
Princi-ple appeared in explicit form in Banach’s thesis in 1922 [1] Since its simplicityand usefulness, it has become a very popular tool in solving existence problems
in many branches of mathematical analysis Banach contraction principle hasbeen extended in many different directions, see [2–10] The notion of modularspaces, as a generalize of metric spaces, was introduced by Nakano [11] and wasintensively developed by Koshi, Shimogaki, Yamamuro [11–13] and others Fur-ther and the most complete development of these theories are due to Luxemburg,Musielak, Orlicz, Mazur, Turpin [14–18] and their collaborators A lot of math-ematicians are interested fixed points of Modular spaces, for example [4, 19–26]
In 2008, Chistyakov [27] introduced the notion of modular metric spaces
generated by F -modular and develop the theory of this spaces, on the same idea
he was defined the notion of a modular on an arbitrary set and develop the ory of metric spaces generated by modular such that called the modular metricspaces in 2010 [28]
the-In this article, we study and prove the existence of fixed point theoremsfor contraction mappings in modular metric spaces
Trang 42 Preliminaries
We will start with a brief recollection of basic concepts and facts in modularspaces and modular metric spaces (see [14, 15, 27–29] for more details)
Definition 2.1 Let X be a vector space over R(or C) A functional ρ : X →
[0, ∞] is called a modular if for arbitrary x and y, elements of X satisfies the
following three conditions :
(A.1) ρ(x) = 0 if and only if x = 0;
(A.2) ρ(αx) = ρ(x) for all scalar α with |α| = 1;
(A.3) ρ(αx + βy) ≤ ρ(x) + ρ(y), whenever α, β ≥ 0 and α + β = 1.
If we replace (A.3) by
(A.4) ρ(αx + βy) ≤ α s ρ(x) + β s ρ(y), for α, β ≥ 0, α s + β s = 1 with an s ∈ (0, 1],
then the modular ρ is called s-convex modular, and if s = 1, ρ is called a convex modular.
If ρ is modular in X, then the set defined by
X ρ = {x ∈ X : ρ(λx) → 0 as λ → 0+} (2.1)
is called a modular space X ρ is a vector subspace of X it can be equipped with
an F -norm defined by setting
kxk ρ = inf{λ > 0 : ρ( x
λ ) ≤ λ}, x ∈ X ρ (2.2)
Trang 5In addition, if ρ is convex, then the modular space X ρ coincides with
which is equivalence to kxk ρ (see [16])
Let X be a nonempty set, λ ∈ (0, ∞) and due to the disparity of the arguments, function w : (0, ∞) × X × X → [0, ∞] will be written as w λ (x, y) =
w(λ, x, y) for all λ > 0 and x, y ∈ X.
Definition 2.2 [28, Definition 2.1] Let X be a nonempty set A function
w : (0, ∞) × X × X → [0, ∞] is said to be a metric modular on X if satisfying, for all x, y, z ∈ X the following condition holds:
(i) w λ (x, y) = 0 for all λ > 0 if and only if x = y;
(ii) w λ (x, y) = w λ (y, x) for all λ > 0;
(iii) w λ+µ (x, y) ≤ w λ (x, z) + w µ (z, y) for all λ, µ > 0.
If instead of (i), we have only the condition
(i 0) w λ (x, x) = 0 for all λ > 0, then w is said to be a (metric)pseudomodular
on X.
The main property of a (pseudo)modular w on a set X is a following: given
x, y ∈ X, the function 0 < λ 7→ w λ (x, y) ∈ [0, ∞] is a nonincreasing on (0, ∞).
Trang 6In fact, if 0 < µ < λ, then (iii), (i 0) and (ii) imply
w λ (x, y) ≤ w λ−µ (x, x) + w µ (x, y) = w µ (x, y). (2.4)
It follows that at each point λ > 0 the right limit w λ+0 (x, y) := lim
²→+0 w λ+² (x, y) and the left limit w λ−0 (x, y) := lim
ε→+0 w λ−ε (x, y) exists in [0, ∞] and the following
two inequalities hold :
w λ+0 (x, y) ≤ w λ (x, y) ≤ w λ−0 (x, y). (2.5)
Definition 2.3 [28, Definition 3.3] A function w : (0, ∞) × X × X → [0, ∞]
is said to be a convex(metric)modular on X if it is satisfies the conditions (i) and
(ii) from Definition 2.2 as well as this condition holds;
(iv) w λ+µ (x, y) = λ
λ+µ w λ (x, z) + λ+µ µ w µ (z, y) for all λ, µ > 0 and x, y, z ∈ X.
If instead of (i), we have only the condition (i0 ) from Definition 2.2, then w is called a convex(metric) pseudomodular on X.
From [27,28], we know that, if x0 ∈ X, the set X w = {x ∈ X : lim
λ→∞ w λ (x, x0) =
0} is a metric space, called a modular space, whose metric is given by d ◦
w (x, y) = inf{λ > 0 : w λ (x, y) ≤ λ} for all x, y ∈ X w Moreover, if w is convex, the modular set X w is equal to X ∗
w = {x ∈ X : ∃λ = λ(x) > 0 such that w λ (x, x0) < ∞} and metrizable by d ∗
w (x, y) = inf{λ > 0 : w λ (x, y) ≤ 1} for all x, y ∈ X ∗
¶
for all λ > 0 and x, y ∈ X, (2.6)
Trang 7then ρ is modular (convex modular) on X in the sense of (A.1)–(A.4) if and only
if w is metric modular(convex metric modular, respectively) on X On the other hand, if w satisfy the following two conditions (i) w λ (µx, 0) = w λ/µ (x, 0) for all
λ, µ > 0 and x ∈ X, (ii) w λ (x + z, y + z) = w λ (x, y) for all λ > 0 and x, y, z ∈ X,
if we set ρ(x) = w1(x, 0) with (2.6) holds, where x ∈ X, then
(i) X ρ = X w is a linear subspace of X and the functional kxk ρ = d ◦
Similar assertions hold if replace the word modular by pseudomodular If w
is metric modular in X, we called the set X w is modular metric space.
By the idea of property in metric spaces and modular spaces, we defined thefollowing:
Definition 2.4 Let X w be a modular metric space.
(1) The sequence (x n)n∈N in X w is said to be convergent to x ∈ X w
Trang 8(4) A subset C of X w is said to be complete if any Cauchy sequence in C is convergent sequence and its is in C.
(5) A subset C of X w is said to be bounded if for all λ > 0
Proof Let x0 ba an arbitrary point in X w and we write x1 = T x0, x2 = T x1 =
T2x0, and in general, x n = T x n−1 = T n x0 for all n ∈ N Then,
Trang 9w λ (x n+1 , x n ) = w λ (T x n , T x n−1)
≤ kw λ (x n , x n−1)
= kw λ (T x n−1 , T x n−2)
≤ k2w λ (x n−1 , x n−2)
Taking n, m → ∞ in (3.2), we have w λ (x n , x m ) → 0 Thus, {x n } is a Cauchy
sequence and by the completeness of X w there exists a point x ∈ X w such that
x n → x as n → ∞ By the notion of metric modular w and the contraction of T ,
for all λ > 0 and for each n ∈ N Taking n → ∞ in (3.3) implies that w λ (T x, x) =
0 for all λ > 0 and thus T x = x Hence, x is a fixed point of T Next, we prove that x is a unique fixed point Suppose that z is another fixed point of T We
Trang 10see that
w λ (x, z) = w λ (T x, T z)
≤ kw λ (x, z) for all λ > 0 Since 0 ≤ k < 1, we get w λ (x, z) = 0 for all λ > 0 this implies that
x = z Therefore, x is a unique fixed point of T and the proof is complete.
Theorem 3.3 Let w be a metric modular on X and X w be a modular metric space induced by w If X w is a complete modular metric space and T : X w → X w
is a contraction mapping Suppose x0 ∈ X w is a fixed point of T , {ε n } is a sequence of positive numbers for which lim
Trang 11for all λ > 0 Thus, we get
Now let ε > 0 Since lim
n→∞ ε n = 0, there exists N ∈ N such that for m ≥ N,
Since x0 is a fixed point of T and using result of Theorem 3.2, we get the sequence
{T n x} converge to x0 This implies that
Trang 12Proof By Theorem 3.2, T N has a unique fixed point u ∈ X w From T N (T u) =
T N +1 u = T (T N u) = T u, so T u is a fixed point of T N By the uniqueness of fixed
point of T N , we have T u = u Thus, u is a fixed point of T Since fixed point of
T is also fixed point of T N , we can conclude that T has a unique fixed point in
for all λ > 0, where 0 ≤ k < 1 Then, T has a unique fixed point in B w (x0, γ).
Proof By Theorem 3.2, we only prove that B w (x0, γ) is complete and T x ∈
B w (x0, γ), for all x ∈ B w (x0, γ) Suppose that {x n } is a Cauchy sequence in
B w (x0, γ), also {x n } is a Cauchy sequence in X w Since X w is complete, there
exists x ∈ X w such that
Trang 13for all λ > 0 It follows the inequalities (3.11) and (3.12), we have w λ (x0, x) ≤ γ
which implies that x ∈ B w (x0, γ) Therefore, {x n } is convergent sequence in
B w (x0, γ) and also B w (x0, γ) is complete.
Next, we prove that T x ∈ B w (x0, γ) for all x ∈ B w (x0, γ) Let x ∈
B w (x0, γ) From the inequalities (3.10), using the contraction of T and the notion
of metric modular, we have
Therefore, T x ∈ B w (x0, γ) and the proof is complete.
Theorem 3.6 Let w be a metric modular on X, X w be a complete modular metric space induced by w and T : X w → X w If there exists η ∈ (0, λ) such that
w λ (T x, T y) ≤ k(w λ+η (T x, x) + w λ+η (T y, y)) (3.13)
for all x, y ∈ X w and for all λ > 0, where k ∈ [0,1
2), then T has a unique fixed
point in X w Moreover, for any x ∈ X w , iterative sequence {T n x} converges to the fixed point.
Proof Let x0 be an arbitrary point in X w and we write x1 = T x0, x2 = T x1 =
T2x0, and in general, x n = T x n−1 = T n x0 for all n ∈ N If T x n0−1 = T x n0 for
some n0 ∈ N, then T x n = x n Thus, x n is a fixed point of T Suppose that
Trang 14T x n−1 6= T x n for all n ∈ N For k ∈ [0,1
Trang 15for all λ > 0 Taking m, n → ∞ in the inequality (3.17), we get {x n } is a Cauchy
sequence and by the completeness of X w there exists a point x ∈ X w such that
x n → x as n → ∞ By the property of metric modular and the inequality (3.13),
Trang 16Example 3.7 Let X = {(a, 0) ∈ R2|0 ≤ a ≤ 1} ∪ {(0, b) ∈ R2|0 ≤ b ≤ 1} Defined the mapping w : (0, ∞) × X × X → [0, ∞] by
complete modular metric space We let a mapping T : X w → X w is define by
T ((a, 0)) = (0, a) and
w λ (T ((a1, b1)), T ((a2, b2))) ≤ 3
4w λ ((a1, b1), (a2, b2))
for all (a1, b1), (a2, b2) ∈ X w Thus, T is a contraction mapping with constant
k = 3
4 Therefore, T has a unique fixed point that is (0, 0) ∈ X w
On the Euclidean metric d on X w , we see that
d(T ((0, 0)), T ((1, 0))) = d((0, 0), (0, 1)) = 1 > k = kd((0, 0), (1, 0))
for all k ∈ [0, 1) Thus, T is not a contraction mapping and then the Banach contraction mapping cannot be applied to this example.
