Some Generalizations of Weak Contractions
Abstract
The concept of weak contraction appeared in [6], and its extension appeared in [7]. In this paper we introduce weak contractions in the sense of [7] that advances the Kannan, Reich, Chatterjea and Hardy-Rogers contractions. Some results related to the fixed point of these new contractions are proved with illustrative examples.
