TL;DR
The paper develops generalized $\theta$-parametric metric spaces by combining a $\mathcal{B}$-action with a Suzuki-type contraction framework, unifying $\theta$-metric and parametric distance notions. It establishes convergence and topological structure, and proves a Suzuki-type fixed point theorem with Suzuki-Banach and Suzuki-Kannan corollaries, supported by illustrative examples. The framework is then applied to Caputo fractional differential equations modeling economic growth, yielding existence and uniqueness results in a function space setting. This work links abstract generalized metric theory to memory-influenced economic dynamics and fractional calculus applications.
Abstract
The objective of this manuscript is to introduce and develop the concept of a generalized $θ$-parametric metric space-a novel extension that enriches the modern metric fixed point theory. We study of its fundamental properties, including convergence and Cauchy sequences that establishes a solid theoretical foundation. A significant highlight of our work is the formulation of Suzuki-type fixed point theorem within this framework which extends classical results in a meaningful way. To demonstrate the depth and applicability of our findings, we construct non-trivial examples that illustrate the behavior of key concepts. Moreover, as a practical application, we apply our main theorem to analyze an economic growth model, demonstrating its utility in solving fractional differential equations that arise in dynamic economic systems.
