Abstract
In this paper, we prove some fixed point theorem on orthogonal spaces. Our result improve the main result of the paper by Eshaghi Gordji et al. [On orthogonal sets and Banach fixed point theorem, to appear in Fixed Point Theory]. Also we prove a statement which is equivalent to the axiom of choice. In the last section, as an application, we consider the existence and uniqueness of a solution for a Volterra-type integral equation in L p space.
