FIXED POINTS OF CONTRACTIVE SET VALUED MAPPINGS WITH SET VALUED DOMAINS ON A METRIC SPACE WITH GRAPH

In this article we consider general contractive mappings of the form F : CB X → CB X , where CB X is the set of all nonempty closed and bounded subsets of a complete metric space X endowed with a graph G. We prove some fixed point results for F and discuss how the connectivity of the graph G is related to the fixed points of F.
