BEST PROXIMITY POINT THEOREMS FOR CYCLIC QUASI-CONTRACTION MAPS IN UNIFORMLY CONVEX BANACH SPACES

Abstract

In this paper we first give a negative answer to a question of Amini-Harandi [‘Best proximity point theorems for cyclic strongly quasi-contraction mappings’, J. Global Optim.56 (2013), 1667–1674] on a best proximity point theorem for cyclic quasi-contraction maps. Then we prove some new results on best proximity point theorems that show that results of Amini-Harandi for cyclic strongly quasi-contractions are true under weaker assumptions.
