RHOADES Received 6 August 2002 We establish two fixed-point theorems for mappings satisfying a general contrac- tive inequality of integral type. These results substantially extend the theorem of Branciari (2002). 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 47H10. In a recent paper [ 1], Branciari established the following theorem. Theorem 1. Let (X,d) be a complete metric space, c ∈ [0, 1), f : X → X a mapping such that, for each x,y ∈ X , d(f x,f y) ϕ(t)dt ≤ c d(x,y) ϕ(t)dt, (1) 0 0 where ϕ : R+ → R+ is a Lebesgue-integrable mapping which is summable, non- negative, and such that, for each 0, ϕ(t)dt 0. Then f has a unique 0 fixed point z ∈ X such that, for each x ∈ X , limn f nx = z. In [ 1], it was mentioned that (1) could be extended to more general contrac- tive conditions. It is the purpose of this paper to make such an extension to two of the most general contractive conditions. Define m(x,y) = max d(x,y),d(x,f x),d(y,f y), d(x,f y) +d(y,f x) . (2) 2 Our first result is the following theorem. Theorem 2. Let (X,d) be a complete metric space, k ∈ [0, 1), f : X → X a mapping such that, for each x,y ∈ X , d(f x,f y) ϕ(t)dt ≤ k m(x,y) ϕ(t)dt, (3) 0 0 4008 B. E. RHO
