Fixed point results for mappings satisfying $$(\psi ,\varphi )$$-weakly contractive condition in partially ordered metric spaces. (English) Zbl 1208.41014
Summary: We establish coincidence fixed point and common fixed point theorems for mappings satisfying $$(\psi ,\varphi )$$-weakly contractive condition in an ordered complete metric space. Some applications of our obtained results are given.
