Caristi type hybrid fixed point theorems in Menger probabilistic metric space (Q1369472)

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept of hybrid fixed points and common hybrid fixed points, and to give some existence theorems of hybrid fixed points and common hybrid fixed points for some kinds of set-valued mappings in Menger probabilistic metric spaces. The results presented in this paper extend some results of \textit{J. S. Ume} [Math. Jap. 40, No. 1, 109-114 (1994; Zbl 0813.47074)] and \textit{Chang} et al. [Probabilistic Metric Spaces and Nonlinear Operator Theory, Sichuan Univ. Press, Chengdu, China (1994)].
