Abstract

The study of the best proximity points is an interesting topic of optimization theory. We introduce the notion of \(\alpha_*\)-proximal contractions for multivalued mappings on a complete metric space and establish the existence of common best proximity point for these mappings in the context of multivalued and single-valued mappings. As an application, we derive some best proximity point and fixed point results for multivalued and single-valued mappings on partially ordered metric spaces. Our results generalize and extend many known results in the literature. Some examples are provided to illustrate the results obtained herein.
