On contractive semigroups of mappings

Raymond D. Holmes

Vol. 37 (1971), No. 3, 701–709
Abstract

The definitions of certain contraction conditions used by a number of authors (D. F. Bailey, V. M. Sehgal, M. Edelstein, and the author) on single mappings and their iterates are extended to commutative semigroups of mappings. A number of results are derived concerning fixed and periodic points which generalize those of the single mapping case.
