Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the notion of an exponential type contraction operator, and prove the Banach, Kannan, Reich, Chatterjea, and Hardy-Rogers fixed point theorem for such operators in the setting of metric spaces. Finally, we apply the exponential Banach contraction mapping theorem to the Fredholm integral equation.
