Some fixed point results in Menger spaces using a control function

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.
