Description
Summary:<p>Abstract</p> <p>This article discusses a more general contractive condition for a class of extended (<it>p </it>&#8805; 2) -cyclic self-mappings on the union of a finite number of subsets of a metric space which are allowed to have a finite number of successive images in the same subsets of its domain. If the space is uniformly convex and the subsets are non-empty, closed and convex, then all the iterates converge to a unique closed limiting finite sequence which contains the best proximity points of adjacent subsets and reduces to a unique fixed point if all such subsets intersect.</p>
