Weak contractions, common fixed points, and invariant approximations. (English) Zbl 1183.47049

The concept of weak contraction was extended to the notion of \((\theta, L)\)-weak contraction by V.Berinde [“On the approximation of fixed points of weak contractive mappings”, Carpathian J. Math.19, No.1, 7–22 (2003; Zbl 1114.47045)]. In this paper, the authors extend the concept of \((\theta, L)\)-weak contraction and introduce the notion of \((f,\theta, L)\)-weak contraction. For the underlying concept, the authors first establish a common fixed point result and then apply it to get a result in the field of approximation.
