abstract = {This paper introduces the concept of set-valued almost  Υ-contractions in  F-metric spaces, aiming to obtain the best proximity point results for set-valued mappings. The newly proposed idea of set-valued almost  Υ-contractions includes various contractive conditions like set-valued almost contractions, set-valued  Υ-contractions, and traditional  Υ-contractions. Consequently, the results presented here extend and unify numerous established works in this domain. To illustrate the practical significance of the theoretical findings, a specific example is provided.}
