Abstract :
In this paper, we introduce the notions of (F, ϕ, θ)-proximal contraction
and (F, ϕ, θ)-weak proximal contraction for non-self mappings and utilize the same to
prove some existence and uniqueness of ϕ-best proximity point for such mappings. Some
illustrative examples are also given to exhibit the utility of our results. As an application
of the concept of ϕ-best proximity point, we deduce some best proximity point theorems
in the context of partial metric spaces.
