Abstract:

In this paper a new contractive type mapping known as mapping contracting transverse axis of hyperbola is introduced. This mapping can reduce the length of transverse axis of a hyperbola. This is a geometric technique that is connected to the study of geometric characteristics of certain curves defined over metric spaces. The paper is decorated by some suitable examples that support our proven results and showing the distinctness of our mapping from the usual contractive type mappings. Our proposed mapping also admits discontinuity at fixed point, thus gives a new solution to an open problem posed by B.E. Rhoades. Finally a geometric figure is illustrated to describe the speciality of our mapping.
