Some integral type fixed point theorems for non-self-mappings satisfying generalized \((\psi, \varphi)\)-weak contractive conditions in symmetric spaces (Q1724310)

Summary: The aim of this paper is to obtain some new integral type fixed point theorems for nonself weakly compatible mappings in symmetric spaces satisfying generalized \((\psi, \varphi)\)-contractive conditions employing the common limit range property. We furnish some interesting examples which support our main theorems. Our results generalize and extend some recent results contained in [the second author et al., Math. Sci., Springer 7, Paper No. 16, 8 p. (2013; Zbl 1277.54032)] to symmetric spaces. Consequently, a host of metrical common fixed theorems are generalized and improved. In the process, we also derive a fixed point theorem for four finite families of mappings which can be utilized to derive common fixed point theorems involving any number of finite mappings.
