metrically convex metric space; multi-valued non-self map; fixed point
Summary:
A fixed point theorem is proved for non-self multi-valued mappings in a metrically convex complete metric space satisfying a slightly stronger contraction condition than in Rhoades [3] and under a weaker boundary condition than in Itoh [2] and Rhoades [3].
