Common fixed points of generalized contractions on partial metric spaces and an application

摘要

In this paper, common fixed point theorems for four mappings satisfying a generalized nonlinear contraction type condition on partial metric spaces are proved. Presented theorems extend the very recent results of I. Altun, F. Sola and H. Simsek [Generalized contractions on partial metric spaces, Topology and its applications 157 (18) (2010) 2778–2785]. As application, some homotopy results for operators on a set endowed with a partial metric are given.
