Coupled Fixed Point Theorems for Some Type of Contraction Mappings in b-Cone and b-Theta Cone Metric Spaces by Sahar Mohamed Ali Abou Bakr

“…This paper proves the existence of a unique coupled fixed point of some type of contraction mappings defined on a complete b-cone and b-theta cone metric spaces; consequently, it extends and generalizes many previous coupled fixed point theorems.…”

On geometry of fixed figures via φ−interpolative contractions and application of activation functions in neural networks and machine learning models by Khairul Habib Alam, Yumnam Rohen, Anita Tomar, Mohammad Sajid

“…We also partially address an open problem demonstrating that a JS−contraction possesses a fixed elliptic disc. This property extends to smaller discs and ellipses within a complete mvb−metric space. …”

A Multiple Fixed Point Result for θ,ϕ,ψ-Type Contractions in the Partially Ordered s-Distance Spaces with an Application by Maliha Rashid, Amna Kalsoom, Abdul Ghaffar, Mustafa Inc, Ndolane Sene

“…In this manuscript, the aim is to prove a multiple fixed point (FP) result for partially ordered s-distance spaces under θ,ϕ,ψ-type weak contractive condition. The result will generalize some well-known results in literature such as coupled FP (Guo and Lakshmikantham, 1987), triple fixed point (Berinde and Borcut, 2011), and quadruple FP results (Karapinar, 2011). …”

Nestin Forms a Flexible Cytoskeleton by Means of a Huge Tail Domain That Is Reversibly Stretched and Contracted by Weak Forces by Ayana Yamagishi, Rina Tokuoka, Kazuki Imai, Mei Mizusawa, Moe Susaki, Koki Uchida, Saku T. Kijima, Akira Nagasaki, Daijiro Takeshita, Chiaki Yoshikawa, Taro Q. P. Uyeda, Chikashi Nakamura

“…We speculate that nestin stably binds AFs, and the NTD extends with weak force, contracting quickly upon load release. Thereby, nestin would absorb mechanical load and maintain cytoskeletal integrity.…”
