Assad-Kirk-type fixed point theorems for a pair of nonself mappings on cone metric spaces (Q1035127)

Let \(E\) be a real Banach space. A subset \(P\) of \(E\) is a cone [\textit{L. G. Huang} and \textit{X. Zhang}, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 332, No.~2, 1468--1476 (2007; Zbl 1118.54022)] if {\parindent7mm \begin{itemize}\item[(i)] \(P\) is closed, nonempty and \(P\neq\{0\}\); \item[(ii)] \(a,b\in \mathbb R\), \(a,b\geq 0\) and \(x,y\in P\) imply \(ax+ by\in P\); \item[(iii)] \(P\cap (-P)= \{0\}\). \end{itemize}} In this paper new Assad-Kirk type fixed point theorems [\textit{N. A. Assad} and \textit{W. A. Kirk}, Pac. J. Math. 43, 553--562 (1972; Zbl 0239.54032)] for a pair of non-self mappings defined on a closed subset of a metrically convex cone metric space are obtained.
