Cone Metric Spaces Fixed Points

What is Cone Metric Spaces Fixed Points?
Cone metric spaces are metric spaces where distances take values in a Banach space with a cone, enabling fixed point theorems for cone contractions that generalize classical Banach fixed point results.
Fixed point theory in cone metric spaces extends standard metric space contractions using cone structures for richer geometric properties. Key results include common fixed points for weakly compatible pairs (Jungck et al., 2009, 169 citations). Over 10 papers from the list address generalizations like α-ψ-Meir-Keeler contractions (Karapınar et al., 2013, 178 citations).
Why It Matters
Cone metric spaces apply to solving nonlinear functional equations and variational inequalities with enhanced convergence guarantees beyond Euclidean metrics. Jungck et al. (2009) demonstrate common fixed points without normality assumptions, aiding optimization in ordered spaces. Wardowski (2012, 880 citations) introduces new contractions for broader applicability in iterative algorithms, as seen in equilibrium problems (Peng and Yao, 2008, 190 citations).
Key Research Challenges
Non-Normal Cone Handling
Many theorems require normal cones, limiting generality. Jungck et al. (2009) prove results without normality for weakly compatible pairs. Challenges persist in ensuring uniqueness without strong cone properties.
Weak Compatibility Verification
Verifying weak compatibility in cone settings complicates common fixed point existence. Assad and Kirk (1972, 287 citations) address set-valued mappings, but extensions to cones need new conditions. Computational checks remain open.
Generalized Contraction Metrics
Defining contractions like α-Geraghty or F-contractions in cones lacks unified frameworks. Wardowski (2012) and Popescu (2014, 166 citations) generalize Banach principles, but cone adaptations face metric distortion issues.
