Abstract

In this paper, we prove new common best proximity point theorems for a proximity commuting mapping in a complete metric space. Our results generalized a recent result of Sadiq Basha [Common best proximity points: global minimization of multi-objective functions, J. Glob. Optim., (2011)] and some results in the literature.
