Resumen de Fixed point theorems for nonlinear contractions with applications to iterated function systems

Rajendra Pant

• We introduce a new type of nonlinear contraction and present some fixed point results without using continuity or semi-continuity. Our result complement, extend and generalize a number of fixed point theorems including the the well-known Boyd and Wong theorem [On nonlinear contractions, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 20(1969)]. Also we discuss an  application to  iterated function systems.
