TY - JOUR T1 - Some variants of contraction principle in the case of operators with Volterra property: step by step contraction principle AU - Rus, İoan A. PY - 2019 DA - August DO - 10.31197/atnaa.604962 JF - Advances in the Theory of Nonlinear Analysis and its Application JO - ATNAA PB - Erdal KARAPINAR WT - DergiPark SN - 2587-2648 SP - 111 EP - 120 VL - 3 IS - 3 LA - en AB - Following the idea of T.A. Burton, of progressive contractions, presented in some examples (T.A. Burton, \emph{A note on existence and uniqueness for integral equations with sum of two operators: progressive contractions}, Fixed Point Theory, 20 (2019), No. 1, 107-113) and the forward step method (I.A. Rus, \emph{Abstract models of step method which imply the convergence of successive approximations}, Fixed Point Theory, 9 (2008), No. 1, 293-307), in this paper we give some variants of contraction principle in the case of operators with Volterra property. The basic ingredient in the theory of step by step contraction is $G$-contraction (I.A. Rus, \emph{Cyclic representations and fixed points}, Ann. T. Popoviciu Seminar of Functional Eq. Approxim. Convexity, 3 (2005), 171-178). The relevance of step by step contraction principle is illustrated by applications in the theory of differential and integral equations.
