%0 Journal Article %T Some fixed point results in Menger spaces using a control function %A P.N. Dutta %A Binayak S. Choudhury %A Krishnapada Das %J Surveys in Mathematics and its Applications %D 2009 %I University Constantin Brancusi of Targu-Jiu %X Here we prove a probabilistic contraction mapping principle in Menger spaces. This is in line with research in fixed point theory using control functions which was initiated by Khan et al. [Bull. Austral. Math. Soc., 30(1984), 1-9] in metric spaces and extended by Choudhury et al. [Acta Mathematica Sinica, 24(8) (2008), 1379-1386] in probabilistic metric spaces. An example has also been constructed. %K Menger space %K p-convergence %K ¦µ-function %K fixed point %U http://www.utgjiu.ro/math/sma/v04/p03.pdf
