Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fixed point theory is a growing and exciting branch of mathematics with a variety of wide applications in biological and mathematical sciences, proposing newer applications in discrete dynamics and super fractals. The present endeavour is to report the latest trend in metric fixed point theory, emphasising newer applications in numerical analysis, discrete dynamics and fractal graphics, besides traditional applications. The book is useful to a large class of readers interested in analysis, applicable mathematics and fractal graphics. The articles have been selected carefully so that the book is useful for sophomores up to senior researchers looking for new material and new ideas in the existence of fixed points, new applications and survey articles. A few chapters included herein are formal in nature and suggest new directions of research in this area, which are especially useful to beginners in the field. The book is divided into two parts: Part I contains surveys and existence and convergence results. In Part II (Applications), various applications of fixed point theory to initial value problems, local attractivity of certain functional integral equation solutions, fractals and super-fractals, and solving equations in numerical praxis have been discussed. The present book, which is dedicated to Professor Shyam Lal Singh, consists of articles contributed by outstanding workers all over the world. Of course, some of the articles were selected from the Symposium on Fixed Point Theory and Applications (dedicated to him) held during the 19th Annual Conference Of India (10-12 November 2016), organised by Pauri Garhwal of the Department of Mathematics, H N B Garhwal (Central) University.
