Abstract
In this work, we define the concept of generalized multivalued $\mathcal{F}$-contraction for two multivalued non-self-mappings and we prove the existence of a common best proximity point for such multivalued non-self-mappings in complete metric spaces. Then, we provide some interesting results and examples to illustrate our main theorem. We generalize the concept of Geraghty contraction and define generalized multivalued Geraghty-type $\mathcal{F}$-contraction. Finally, as a result of the main theorem, we prove that if a pair of multivalued non-self-mappings apply in such a contraction, then they will have a common best proximity point.
