In this paper, first we prove common fixed point theorems for a pair of weakly compatible maps. Secondly, we prove a fixed point theorem for weakly compatible maps along with (CLRg) property. In fact, our results generalize the results of Z. Mustafa et al. [10]. 2000 AMS Classification: 47H10, 54H25

Introduction Sessa [9] generalized the notion of commuting maps given by Jungck [2] and introduced weakly commuting mappings. Further, Jungck [3] introduced more generalized commutativity called compatibility. In 1998, Jungck and Rhoades [4] introduced the notion of weakly compatible maps and showed that compatible maps are weakly compatible but converse need not true. Menger [5] introduced the...

In this paper, we prove common fixed point theorems for a pair of weakly compatible maps under E.A .property. A major benefit of property (E.A.) is that it ensures convergence of desired sequences without completeness. At the end we rectify the main result of the paper, entitled “Common fixed points for weakly compatible maps, Proc. Indian Acad. Sci. (Math. Sci.) Vol. 111(2001), No. 2, pp 241-247.
