Best Proximity Theory in Metrically Convex Menger PM-Spaces via Cyclic Kannan Maps
A Takahashi convex structure is considered on Menger PM-spaces and used to investigate the existence of best proximity points for weak cyclic Kannan contractions. We then introduce a concept of a probabilistic proximal quasi-normal structure on a convex pair of subsets of Menger PM-spaces and prove that every compact and convex pair in metrically convex Menger PM-spaces has the probabilistic proximal quasi-normal structure. By applying this geometric property, we survey the existence of a best proximity point for cyclic relatively Kannan nonexpansive maps which preserves distance. In order to provide more accurate results, we obtain the same conclusions in the framework of CAT(0) spaces.
