A fixed point theorem for contraction type maps in partially ordered metric spaces and application to ordinary differential equations (Q5897022): Difference between revisions

Let \((X,\leq)\) be a partially ordered set and \(d\) a complete metric on \(X\). The authors present a fixed point theorem for an operator \(f:X\to X\) under some suitable conditions in terms of \(\leq\) and \(d\). An application to ordinary differential equations is also given.
