Strong b-Suprametric Spaces and Fixed Point Principles

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the strong b-suprametric spaces in which we prove the fixed point principles of Banach and Edelstein. Moreover, we prove a variational principle of Ekeland and deduce a Caristi fixed point theorem. Furthermore, we introduce the strong b-supranormed linear spaces in which we establish the fixed point principles of Brouwer and Schauder. As applications, we study the existence of solutions to an integral equation and to a third-order boundary value problem.
