Abstract

Inspired by the work in Dix and Karakostas (Nonlinear Anal. 71:3872–3880, 2009), we prove in this paper a new fixed point theorem for strict-set contractions leaving invariant a cone in a Banach space. This new result is used to obtain an existence result for Urysohn type integral equations.
