SEMICOMPATIBILITY AND FIXED POINT THEOREMS IN AN UNBOUNDED D-METRIC SPACE BIJENDRA SINGH, SHISHIR JAIN, AND SHOBHA JAIN Received 16 March 2004 and in revised form 24 August 2004 Rhoades (1996) proved a fixed point theorem in a bounded D-metric space for a con- tractive self-map with applications. Here we establish a more general fixed point theorem in an unbounded D-metric space, for two self-maps satisfying a general contractive con- dition with a restricted domain of x and y . This has been done by using the notion of semicompatible maps in D-metric space. These results generalize and
