A fixed point result for mappings on the \(\ell_\infty\)-sum of a closed and convex set based on the degree of nondensifiability (Q2676526)

Summary: Let \(C\) a non-empty, bounded, closed and convex subset of a Banach space \(X\), and denote by \(\ell_\infty(C)\) the \(\ell_\infty\)-sum of \(C\). In the present paper, by using the degree of nondensifiability (DND), we introduce the class of \(r\)-\(\Delta\)-DND-contraction maps \(f : \ell_\infty(C) \to X\) and prove that if \(f (\ell_\infty(C)) \subset C\) then there is some \(x^\ast \in C\) with \(f (x^\ast, x^\ast, \dots, x^\ast, \dots) = x^\ast\). Our result, in the specified framework, generalizes other fixed point results for the so called generalized \(r\)-contraction and even other existing fixed point result based on the DND. Also, we derive a new Krasnosel'skiĭ-type fixed point result.
