Fixed points of generalized contraction maps in metric spaces

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a new class Ψ1 of functions which are different from Ψ introduced by Hussain, Parvaneh, Samet and Vetro [9]. We define JS - Ψ1 - contraction for a single selfmap and prove the existence of fixed points. Also, we extend JS - Ψ1 - contraction to a pair of selfmaps and prove the existence of coincidence points and prove the existence of common fixed points by assuming the weakly compatible property. Further, we study the existence of common fixed points for a pair of weakly compatible selfmaps satisfying property (E. A). Examples are provided to illustrate our results.
