Fixed point results for generalized quasicontraction mappings in abstract metric spaces Original Research Article

In this paper, we introduce the concept of generalized quasicontraction mappings in an abstract metric space. By using this concept, we construct an iterative process which converges to a unique fixed point of these mappings. The result presented in this paper generalizes the Banach contraction principle in the setting of metric space and a recent result of Huang–Zhang for contractions. We also validate our main result by an example.
