    Let \((X, D)\) be a metric space, \(CB(X)\) (resp., \(K(X)\)) the family of nonempty closed bounded (resp., the family of nonempty compact) subsets of \(X\), and \(H\) the Hausdorff metric on \(CB(X)\) induced by \(d\). Then a map \[ T: X \rightarrow CB(X) \] is called multivalued nonexpansive if \[ H(Tx, Ty) \leq d(x, y) \] for all \(x, y \in X\). The authors attempt to investigate condions under which a multivalued nonexpansive map may have a fixed point. Since such a map on a complete metric space need not have a fixed point, the authors work in a complete CAT(0) space [cf. \textit{W. A. Kirk}, in: Proceedings of the international conference on fixed-point theory and its applications, Valencia, Spain, July 13--19, 2003, 113--142 (2004; Zbl 1083.53061)] and assume some ``inwardness'' requirement on the map. Their main result goes as follows. Let \(E\) be a nonempty bounded closed convex subset of a complete CAT(0) space \(X\) and \(T: X \rightarrow K(X)\) a nonexpansive map. Assume that \(T\) is weakly inward on \(E\). Then \(T\) has a fixed point. Another main result is about the existence of a common fixed point of a single-valued nonexpansive map commuting with a multivalued nonexpansive map.
