Common fixed points of four maps in partially ordered metric spaces. (English) Zbl 1220.54018
Summary: In this paper, common fixed points of four mappings satisfying a generalized weak contractive condition in the framework of partially ordered metric spaces are obtained. We also provide examples of the new concepts introduced herein.
