Fixed-point theorems involving Lipschitz in the small (Q6073755)

Summary: Lipschitz in the small is a generalization of the Lipschitz condition. The Lipschitz condition guarantees the uniqueness of the solution of initial value problems. A~special Lipschitz condition in the small is a contraction in the small. Based on the Lipschitz in the small in this paper, fixed-point theorems involving contraction in the small will be presented. The results will be applied to develop Picard's theorem.
