Approximating fixed points of implicit almost contractions

In this paper we obtain constructive fixed point theorems for self op- erators in a general class of almost contractions defined by an implicit relation. Our results unify, extend, generalize, enrich and complement a multitude of related fixed point theorems from the literature.
