Nonunique Fixed Point Theorems in Partial Metric Spaces

Abstract

In this paper we prove the existence of fixed points of certain self-maps in the context of partial metric spaces. In fact, the fixed point theorems presented here can be considered as a continuation, in part, of the works of L. B. Ciric on the existence of fixed points but not uniqueness in the realm of metric spaces. Our results generalize, enrich and improve earlier results on the topic in the literature.
