Pant, R. P.; Bisht, R. K. Occasionally weakly compatible mappings and fixed points. (English) Zbl 1256.54079 Bull. Belg. Math. Soc. - Simon Stevin 19, No. 4, 655-661 (2012). Summary: In the present paper we show that the contractive conditions employed by M. A. Al-Thagafi and N. Shahzad [Acta Math. Sin., Engl. Ser. 24, No. 5, 867–876 (2008; Zbl 1175.41026)] in particular and contractive conditions in general do not constitute a proper setting for studying common fixed points of occasionally weakly compatible mappings. Further, we improve the results of Al-Thagafi and Shahzad by employing a proper setting.
