INTRODUCTION.
A
single
valuedself-map
of a metric space(X,d)
is called contractive ifd(f(x),
f(y))
<_
hd(x,y)
forallx,y inX
and forafixednumberh,
0_<
h"
<
1. Ifd(f(x),f(y)) < d(x,y),
(1.1)
then
f
is known as asingle valued nonexpansive mapping.A
classical theorem(also
known as the ContractionPrinciple)
asserts thateachcontractive self-map ofacomplete
metric spacehasauniquefixed point.
It
is clear thatingeneral
anonexpansiveself-mapping ofacompletemetric space need not have a fixed point.However,
for such mappings defined on convex sets in aBanach space, some interesting fixed point results have beenobtained
by
Browder[2]
and KirkThenotionofcontractivenessand nonexpansiveness formultivalued mapshas been extended
inseveral ways and somefixed points of such multivalued functions have also beenestablished.
See,
forexample,
[1],
[8],
[13].
The second author and Tarafdar
[5]
introduced the notion of a nonexpansive type430 A. LATIF, T. HUSAIN AND I. BEG
has beenextendedby Husainand Latif
([6], [7])in
several directions.Kannan
([9], [10])
hasproved somefixed point theorems forsingle valuedself-mappingsf
ofametric space
(X,d)
satisfyingtheproperty:d(f(x),f(y)) <
1/2
{d(x,f(x))+d(y,f(y))}.
(1.2)
We
shall call a mapping satisfying(1.2)
a K-mapping in the sequel.It
is known[10]
that conditions(1.1)
and(1.2)
areindependent.Kannan
[11]
provessomefixed pointtheorems for K-mappingsoncertain subsets ofBanachspaces.In
this paper, we prove some fixed point theorems(see
section2)
for nonexpansive typemultivalued maps which extend results in
[7]
and include theresult ofDotson
[4].
Section 3 deals with the notion of K-multivalued mappings which is a generalization of K-mappings and weprovesomefixedpoint results for such mappings.
We
recall thefollowing
notionsneededinthesequel.
Let C
be a nonempty subset of a metric space(X,d).
A
multivalued map J:C-2x(nonempty
subsets ofX)
is called contractive type[7]
if for all x EC,u,
J(x)
there is au
_
J(y)
for all yC
such thatd(ux,
uu)
<_
hd(x,y)
for a fixed real number
h,0
<
h<
1. This notionclearly
generalizes the usualconcept
ofcontractive maps
[7].
Further,
if intheabove inequalitywehaved(=,
)
<
d(z,
)
then
J
is called a nonexpansive type map.An
element xC
is called a fixed point ofJ
if zJ().
A
Banach spaceX
is said to satisfy Opial’s condition[14]
iffor each xCX
and for eachsequence
{x,}
weakly convergenttox,theinequalityholds for all x y.
Every
Hilbert space satisfiesOpial’s
condition[14]
and so does each/,(1
<
p<
).
A
subsetC
of a linear spaceX
is said to be star-shaped if there is a x0EC
such that{tx
+
(1
t)z0:O _< <_ 1}
CC
for each xC.
Theelement Zois called astar-centre forC.
Theclass of star-shaped subsets of
X
includes convex subsets as a proper subclass.We
