Asymptotic fixed points for nonlinear contractions
Fixed Point Theory and Applications volume 2005, Article number: 534975 (2005)
Abstract
Recently, W. A. Kirk proved an asymptotic fixed point theorem for nonlinear contractions by using ultrafilter methods. In this paper, we prove his theorem under weaker assumptions. Furthermore, our proof does not use ultrafilter methods.
