Also, as a consequence, a fixed point theorem for a pair of F-contraction mappings having a unique common fixed point is obtained. In particular, the main results in this paper generalize and extend a fixed point theorem due to Wardowski 2012 in which F-contraction was introduced as a generalization of Banach Contraction Principle. An illustrative example is provided to validate the results.partial metric spaces, F-contraction mappings, fixed point theoremJournal Article, Peer Reviewed
