Journal of Fixed Point Theory and Applications Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

In this note, we aim to review the recent results on F-contractions, introduced by Wardowski. After examining the fixed point results for such operators, we collect the sequent results in this direction in a different setting. One of the aims of this survey is to provide a complete collection of several fixed generalizations and extensions of F-contractions.
