The notion of compatibility for point-to-point mappings recently defined by Jungck is generalized to include multi-valued mappings. This idea is used to establish a fixed point theorem for a generalized contractive multi-valued mapping and a single-valued napping.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
