Abstract- The aim of this paper is to prove common fixed point theorem for four self mappings in semi -metric space using the concept of occasionally weakly compatible. This theorem generalizes the result of Bijendra Singh and M.S Chauhan[1].

Keywords- Semi- metric space ,coincidence point, weakly compatible, occasionally weakly compatible, Fixedpoint.

Remark 1: Weakly compatible mappings are occasionally compatible mappings but converse is not true.

Example 1: Let (X, d) be semi-metric space with X=[1/2,5] and d(x ,y)=(x-y)2. Define two self mappings A and B as fololws

II PRELIMINARIES

Definition 1 : (X ,d) is said to be Semi- metric space if and only if it satisfies the following conditions:

M1: d(x ,y)=0 if and only of x=y.

M2:d(x ,y)=d(y ,x) if and only if x=y for any x,yX.

Definition 2 : Let A and B be two self mappings of a semi metric space (X, d) then A and B are said to be weakly compatible mappings if they commute at their coincidence points.

Definition 3 : Let A and B be two self maps of a semi metric space (X ,d) then A and B are said to be occasionally weakly compatible mappings if there is a coincidence point xX of A and B at which A and B are commute.

Clearly, X=1/2 and x=1 are two coincidence points. If x=1 then A(1)=1=B(1) which gives AB(1)=1=BA(1).If x=1/2 then A(1/2)=B(1/2)=1/4 but AB(1/2)BA(1/2).Therefore A and B are occasionally weakly compatible but not weakly compatible

Lemma 1: Let (X ,d) be a semi-metric space, A,B are occasionally weakly compatible mappings of X. If the self mappings A and B on X have a unique point of coincidence w=Ax=Bx. Then w is unique common fixed point of A and B.

Proof: Since A and B are occasionally weakly compatible mappings, there exists a point xX such that Ax=Bx=w and ABx=BAx.Thus AAx=ABx=BAx Which gives Ax is also point of coincidence of A and B. since the point of coincidence w=Ax is unique then, BAx=AAx=Ax ,and w=Ax is a common fixed point of A and B.If z is any common fixed point of and A and B then z=Az=Bz=w by the uniqueness of the point of coincidence.

III MAIN RESULT

Theorem 1: Let A,B,S,T,P and Q be self maps on a semi metric space (X ,d) If

(i) (AP,S) and (BQ,T) are occasionally weakly compatible mappings.

Where x,yX and k1+2k21,k1,k20

then AP,BQ,S and T have a Common fixed point. Further if AP=PA,BQ=QB Then A,B,P,Q,S and T have a common fixed point ,

Proof: (AP,S) and (BQ,T) are occasionally weakly compatible, then there exists some x,yX such that

This is contradiction. There fore u=w.Hence w is unique common fixed point of AP,BQ,S and T.

If AP=PA and BQ=QB then Aw=A(APw)=A(Paw)=AP(Aw).

Put x=w and y=Aw in (ii)

APx=Sx and BQy=Ty. Using (ii) we claim APx=BQy.

k d ( APw, Sw)d ( APw,T ( Aw))

This is contradiction. So APx=BQy. Therefore APx=BQy=Sx=Ty.

if there is another point of coincident say,w such that APz=Sz=w then APz=Sz=BQy=Ty. Which gives APz=APx implies z=x.

Hence w=APx=Sx for wX is the unique point of coincidence of AP and S.By lemma (1.1) w is a fixed point of AP and S Hence APw=Sw=w.Similarly there

exists a common fixed point uX such that u=BQu=Tu.

Which gives w Aw

Pw= A(Pw)=P(Aw)=w.

Similarly we have Bw=Qw=w.

Hence A,B,S,T,P and Q have unique fixed point.

Example 2 :

Let X, d be the semi-metric Space with X 0,1/ 2 and d x y2 .

Define Self mappings A, B,T , S, P and Q as

A(x) 2x 1, B(x) 4x 1,T (x) 4x 3 ,

Suppose uw

Put x=w and y=u in (ii)

S(x) 6x 1, P(x) 2 6x and Q(x) 2x 3 .

.

Also the mappings satisfy all the conditions of theorem 1. Here the common fixed point is 1/2
