Abstract

In this paper, we establish several novel fixed point theorems for generalized contraction mappings operating within complete metric spaces. We extend the classical Banach contraction principle by introducing a relaxed continuity constraint and proving uniqueness conditions for non-linear operators. Numerical applications to fractional differential equations are presented to illustrate the main theoretical results.
