Abbas, Mujahid; Ali, Basit; Romaguera, Salvador Generalized contraction and invariant approximation results on nonconvex subsets of normed spaces. (English) Zbl 1472.47041 Abstr. Appl. Anal. 2014, Article ID 391952, 5 p. (2014). Summary: D. Wardowski [Fixed Point Theory Appl. 2012, Paper No. 94, 6 p. (2012; Zbl 1310.54074)] introduced a new type of contractive mapping and proved a fixed point result in complete metric spaces as a generalization of Banach contraction principle. In this paper, we introduce a notion of generalized \(F\)-contraction mappings which is used to prove a fixed point result for generalized nonexpansive mappings on star-shaped subsets of normed linear spaces. Some theorems on invariant approximations in normed linear spaces are also deduced. Our results extend, unify, and generalize comparable results in the literature.
