Abstract

A new generalized set-valued contraction on topological spaces with respect to a measure of noncompactness is introduced. Two fixed point theorems for the K K M type maps which are either generalized set-contraction or condensing ones are given. Furthermore, applications of these results for existence of coincidence points and maximal elements are deduced. © 2009.
