In this paper, we introduce the concepts of (α-Ω)-contraction and Reich-type contraction within the framework of complex-valued controlled metric spaces (CVCMS). We also present related fixed point theorems for CVCMS, building on the works considered in the literature review for controlled metric type spaces. To demonstrate the practical implications and significance of our results, we provide several examples and an application in dynamic programming.
