ABSTRACT
In this work, we use the notion of convex power condensing mapping under measure of noncompactness in locally convex spaces and establish some new coupled fixed point results. The results proved herein are the generalization and extension of some widely known results in the existing literature. Furthermore, we apply our results for the existence of solution to infinite system of ordinary differential equations and system of fractional hybrid differential equations.
1. Introduction
The Mathematical model has a vital role in Mathematical analysis and supports plenty of real-world problems. Some of the problems that come up in geology, physical sciences, engineering, mechanics, applied mathematics and economics find its way into mathematical models expressed by differential equations. The following equation can be used to simulate many real-world problems.
(1)
(1) where A is a subset of a linear space. The operator form of (Equation1
(1)
(1) ) is
(2)
(2) where f is a contraction in some sense (expansive or nonexpansive), and g fulfils some conditions (completely continuous, compactness, convex power condensing, …) and T itself has neither of these properties. To check the existence of solution, we use fixed point theory, because the problem of existence solution usually turns into the problem of finding a fixed point of a particular mapping. Due to this fact, the results of fixed point theory could be implemented to get results of an operator equation. Thus finding the existence solution of Equation (Equation1
(1)
(1) ) is equivalent to finding the fixed point of the operator equation (Equation2
(2)
(2) ). To find the fixed point of Equation (Equation2
(2)
(2) ), it becomes desirable to develop fixed point theorems for such situations. An early theorem of this type was given by Krasnosel'skii [Citation1], which combined both the Schauder fixed point theorem and the Banach fixed point theorem. In Krasnosel'skii fixed point theorem, the notion of the compactness plays an essential role. To tackle this obstacle, a feasible technique is to use the notion of measure of noncompactness (MNC, for short).
The notion of MNC suggested by Kuratowski [Citation2] is a new area for the researchers. The MNC appears in several contexts and played a key role in various branches of mathematics, especially in nonlinear analysis and determines the existence of solution to non-linear problems. On the other hand, Sun and Zhang [Citation3] launched the notion of convex power condensing mapping under the Kuratowski MNC. This notion was extended by Ezzinbi and Taoudi [Citation4] and then by Shi [Citation5]. Recently, Khchine et al. [Citation6] extended the view of a convex power condensing operator T in connection with another operator S of [Citation5] in complete Hausdorff locally convex space. In particular, they relaxed the compactness condition in Krasnosel'skii fixed point theorem by using the notion of MNC.
In fixed point theory, one of the remarkable and pivotal result is a coupled fixed point theorem, which was introduced by Guo and Lakhsmikantham [Citation7]. Bhaskar and Lakhsmikantham [Citation8] were the pioneers who used coupled fixed points results for the existence of unique solution to a periodic boundary value problem. Many prominent researchers have taken greater interest regarding the application potential of coupled fixed point theory.
Using the notions of MNC and a convex-power condensing mapping, we established coupled fixed point results in complete Hausdorff locally convex space. Further, we apply our results for the existence solution to two classes of infinite system of ordinary differential equations and system of fractional hybrid differential equations. In support we provide an example for the effectiveness of our existence results.
