Our results extend, generalize, modify and unify several known results especially those contained in Samet and Turinici [Commun. Math. Anal. 13, 82-97 (2012)] and Alam and Imdad [J. Fixed Point Theory Appl. 17(4), 693-702 (2015)]. Interestingly a corollary to one of our main results proved under symmetric closure of any binary relation remains a sharpened version of a theorem due to Samet and Turinici. Finally, we use examples to highlight the realized improvements in the results proved in this paper.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-11-13T13:43:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "47H10", "54H25" ], "keywords": [ "relation-theoretic metrical fixed point theorems", "nonlinear contractions", "arbitrary binary relation", "binary relation remains", "fixed point theory appl" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
