Abstract:
In this paper we introduce multivalued modified F-contraction on a metric space. This is a multivalued mapping obtained by incorporating the idea of the recently introduced F-contraction which has attracted much attention in contemporary research. We explore the fixed point problem associated with the above contractive mapping. We also investigate the data dependence and stability properties of the fixed point sets associated with these multivalued contractions. We discuss an illustration of the main result and present an application of the single valued version of the main theorem to a problem of an integral equation of Volterra type. The domain of the study is fixed point theory and set valued analysis.
