Generalized Darbo-type \(F\)-contraction and \(F\)-expansion and its applications to a nonlinear fractional-order differential equation (Q2220218)

Summary: In this work, we introduce various Darbo-type \(F_\pounds\)-contractions, and utilizing these contractions, we present some fixed point theorems. Moreover, we introduce a Darbo-type \(F_\pounds\)-expanding mapping and prove fixed point theorems under the Darbo-type \(F_\pounds\)-expanding mapping. Employing our results, we check the existence of a solution to the nonlinear fractional-order differential equation under the integral type boundary conditions. For its validity, an appropriate example is given.
