Interpolative Geraghty-Type Contractions in Bicomplex-Valued Metric Spaces: Fixed Point Results, Stability Analysis, and Applications
In this paper, we introduce and systematically study the class of interpolative Geraghty-type contractive mappings within the framework of complete bicomplex-valued metric spaces (bi-CVMS). We prove seven new results: (i) a fixed point theorem for a single interpolative Geraghty contraction; (ii) a common fixed point theorem for a pair of such mappings; (iii) a fixed point theorem for interpolative Reich–Rus–Ćirić type contractions in bi-CVMS; (iv) a coincidence point and common fixed point theorem for weakly compatible maps; (v) a fixed point theorem for Jaggi-type hybrid contractions in bi-CVMS; (vi) a stability result for the Picard iteration associated with the main contraction; and (vii) an application theorem establishing the existence and uniqueness of solutions to a boundary value problem governed by a Caputo fractional differential equation. All results are furnished with complete proofs and non-trivial illustrative examples. Several well-known theorems—including those of Banach, Kannan, Reich, Geraghty, and their complex-valued analogues—follow as special cases. The paper significantly advances the fixed point theory in bicomplex-valued metric spaces.
