Abstract

In this paper, we obtain some best proximity point results on 0-complete partial metric spaces by introducing a new concept of mixed multivalued contraction mapping. Thus, we generalize and extend some important and famous results existing in the literature. To support our results, we present a noteworthy illustrative and comparative example. Finally, we give some applications of our new best proximity point theorems to homotopy theory as directly unlike homotopy applications existing in the literature. Hence, we prove some best proximity point results for homotopic mappings.
