Abstract The aim of this research paper is to prove some fixed point theorems for contractions and generalized contractions in compact G-metric spaces.

Mathematics Subject Classification. 33C05, 33C20, 33C70 1 Introduction The study of fixed points of mappings satisfying certain contractive conditions has been at the center of vigorous research activity, because it has a wide range of applications in different areas such as differential equations, operation research, mathematical economics, biology, chemistry, games theory, and physics. The contraction mapping principle proved in 1] is one of the important theorems in fixed point theory. The following fixed point theorem was proved by Edelstein 2] in 1962. Theorem 1.1. Let (X, d ) be a compact metric space and T be a mapping on X. Assume d(t x,ty) < d(x, y) for all x,y X with x y. Then T has a unique fixed point. In 2009, Suzuki 3] improved the results of Banach and Edelstein in the following theorem. Theorem 1.2. Let (X, d ) be a compact metric space and T be a mapping on X. Assume that 1 2 d(x, T x) < d(x, y) implies d(t x, Ty) < d(x, y) for x, y X. Then T has a unique fixed point. In 2006, Mustafa Z. and Sims B. introduced a new class of generalized metric spaces (see 4]) which are called G-metric spaces. Recently, Mustafa Z et. al. studied many fixed point theorems for mapping various contractive conditions on complete G-Metric spaces (see 5] -8]). In this paper, firstly, we prove some fixed point theorems for contractions and generalized contractions in the compact G-metric spaces (Theorem 3.1, Theorem 3.4). Our results generalize Theorem (1.1), Theorem (1.2), in compact G- Metric spaces. Finally, we prove a fixed point theorem for self- mapping satisfying a new contractive condition in compact G-metric spaces which generalize Theorem (3.1). Corresponding author.

Definition 2.1. Let X be a non empty set, and G : X X X R + be a function satisfying the following axioms: (G1) G(x,y,z) = 0 if x = y = z; (G2) 0 < G(x,x,y), for all x, y X, with x y; (G3) G(x,x,y) G(x,y,z), for all x, y, z X, with z y; (G4) G(x, y, z) = G(x, z, y) = G(y, z, x) = (symmetry in all three variables); (G5) G(x, y, z) G(x, a, a) + G(a, y, z), for all x, y, z, a X, (rectangle inequality). Then the function G is called a generalized metric, or, more specifically a G-metric on X, and the pair (X,G) is called a G-metric space. Example 2.1. Let R be the set of all real numbers. Define G : R R R R + by G(x,y,z) = x y + y z + z x, for all x,y,z X. Then it is clear that (R,G) is a G-metric space. Proposition 2.1. Let (X,G)be a G-metric space. Then for any x,y,z and a X, it follows that: (1) If G(x,y,z) = 0 then x = y = z, (2) G(x,y,z) G(x,x,y) + G(x,x,z), (3) G(x,y,y) 2G(y,x,x), (4) G(x,y,z) G(x,a,z) + G(a,y,z), (5) G(x,y,z) 2 3 (G(x,y,a) + G(x,a,z) + G(a,y,z)), (6) G(x,y,z) G(x,a,a) + G(y,a,a) + G(z,a,a). Definition 2.2. Let (X,G) be a G-metric space, and (x n ) be a sequence of points of X, we say that (x n ) is G-convergent to x if for any ε > 0, there exists n 0 N such that G(x,x n,x m ) < ε, for all n,m n 0. Proposition 2.2. Let (X,G) be a G-metric space. Then the following are equivalent: (1) (x n ), is G-convergent to x, (2) G(x n,x n,x) 0, as n, (3) G(x n,x,x) 0, as n, (4) G(x m,x n,x) 0, as m,n. Definition 2.3. Let (X,G) be a G-metric space, a sequence (x n ) is called G-Cauchy if given ε > 0, there is n 0 N such that G(x n,x m,x l ) < ε, f or all n,m,l n 0. Definition 2.4. Let (X,G) and (X,G ) be G-metric spaces and let f : (X,G) (X,G ) be a function, then f is said to be G-continuous at a point a X, if given ε > 0, there exists δ > 0 such that x, y X;G(a,x,y) < δ implies G ( f (a), f (x), f (y)) < ε. A function f is G-continuous on X if, and only if, it is G-continuous at all a X. Proposition 2.3. Let (X, G) be a G-metric space. Then the function G(x,y,z) is continuous in all variables. Definition 2.5. A G-metric space (X, G) is said to be G-complete if every G-Cauchy sequence in (X,G) is G- convergent in (X,G). Definition 2.6. A G-metric space (X,G) is said to be a compact G-metric space if it is G-complete and G-totally bounded.

Let X be a compact G-metric space. If T : X X satisfies G(T (x 1 ),T (x 2 ),T (x 3 )) < G(x 1,x 2,x 3 ) when x 1 x 2 x 3 in X, then T has a unique fixed point in X and the fixed point can be found as the limit of T n (x 0 ) as n for any x 0 X. Proof. Let given by ϕ : X 0;1) ϕ(x) = G(x,T (x),t 2 (x)) Since X is compact, the function G(x,T (x),t 2 (x)) takes on its minimum value, there is an a X such that G(a,T (a),t 2 (a)) < G(x,T (x),t 2 (x)) f or all x X. We ll show by contradiction that a is a fixed point for T. If T (a) a then the hypothesis about T in the theorem (taking x 1 = a and x 2 = T (a), x 3 = T (T (a))) says G(T (a),t (T (a)),t (T 2 (a))) G(a,T (a),t 2 (a)). which contradicts the minimality of G(a,T (a),t 2 (a)) among all numbers G(x,T (x),t 2 (x)). So T (a) = a. To show T has at most one fixed point in X, suppose T has three fixed points a 1 a 2 a 3. Then G(a 1,a 2,a 3 ) = G(T (a 1 ),T (a 2 ),T (a 3 ))) < G(a 1,a 2,a 3 ). This is impossible, so a 1 = a 2 = a 3, Finally, we show for any x X that the sequence x n = T n (x 0 ) G-converges to a as n : If for some k 0 we have x k = a, then x k+1 = T (x k ) = T (a) = a, and more generally x n = a, for all n k, so (x n ) G-converges to a since the terms of the sequence equal a for all large n. Now we may assume instead that x n a for all n. Let T be a contractive map of a compact G-metric space X into itself and x 0 X. Then show that T x 0,T 2 x 0,T 3 x 0,... G-converge to the unique fixed point of T. Let a denote the unique fixed point of T. Then G(T n+1 x 0,a,a) = G(T (T n x 0 ),Ta,Ta) < G(T n x 0,a,a),n = 1,2,... Thus, ( G(T n+1 x 0,a,a) ) n 1 is a decreasing sequence of nonnegative numbers and hence converges to λ, say, lim n G(T n+1 x 0,a,a) = λ. The sequence (T n x 0 ), being in the compact G-metric space has a G-convergent subsequence (T n kx 0 ) k 1. Let limt n kx 0 = y. Then by continuity of G-metric space we get G(y,a,a) = limg(t n kx 0,a,a) = λ. If λ 0, then y a k k and so λ = G(y,a,a) > G(Ty,Ta,Ta) = lim k G(T (T n k x 0 ),Ta,Ta) lim k supg(t 2 (T n k x 0 ),T 2 a,t 2 a)...... lim k supg(t n k+1 x 0,T n k+1 n k a,t n k+1 n k a) = lim k supg(t n+1 x 0,a,a) = λ This is a contradiction. So λ =0 and hence y = a. Thus a is the only limit of (T n x 0 ). Example 3.1. Let X = 0,1] and G(x,y,z) = x y + y z + x z be a G-metric on X. Define T : X X by T (x) = 1+x 1. Then T satisfies the condition of Theorem (3.1 ) and so T has a unique fixed point.
http://www.ispacs.com/journals/jiasc/2015/jiasc-00071/ 23 Proof. For all x, y X, we have T x Ty = x y (1 + x)(1 + y), Ty T z = y z (1 + y)(1 + z), T z T x = z x (1 + z)(1 + x) when x y, T x Ty x y = 1 (1 + x)(1 + y) < 1, G(T x,ty,t z) = T x Ty + Ty T z + T z T x < x y + y z + z x = G(x,y,z), Hence T has a unique fixed point in 0,1] at x = 1+ 5 2 0.61803 Proposition 3.1. A G-continuous, iteratively contractive self-map T on a compact G-metric space (X, G) has a unique fixed point a and liminfg(t n x,t n y,t n z) = 0 f or all x, y, z X, n (3.1) So a is a limit point of every orbit. Proof. Since T is iteratively contractive, i.e., given x y z, there exists r in N with G(T r x,t r y,t r z)<g(x,y,z). (3.2) The existence of a fixed point a follows from Theorem 3.1 with T = T r and uniqueness follows from (3.2). Suppose liminfg(t n x,t n y,t n z) = ε > 0, for some x,y,z X. Since X is compact there exists a limit point (u,v,w) of ((T n x,t n y,t n z)) with G(u,v,w) = ε. Apply (3.2) to u,v,w to get r with G(T r u,t r v,t r w)< ε. Since (u,v,w) is a limit point of ((T n x,t n y,t n z),) so is (T r u,t r v,t r w). Hence, by the definition of ε, ε G(T r u,t r v,t r w),a contradiction. So ε = 0 which gives (3.1). Apply (3.1) with y = z = a to conclude that a is a limit point of every orbit (T n x). Proposition 3.2. A continuous self-map T on a compact G-metric space (X,G) has a fixed point if, and only if, given x y z, there exists h : X X such that T h = ht and G(hx,hy,hz) < G(x,y,z). Proof. Given Tw = w, take hx = w for all x, T h(x) = Tw = w = ht (x),and G(hx,hy,hz) = G(w,w,w) = 0 < G(x,y,z). For the converse take w with G(w,Tw,T 2 w) = ming(x,t x,t 2 x). Suppose w Tw. Get h with T h = ht and x G(h(w),h(Tw),h(T 2 w)) < G(w,Tw,T 2 w). For x = hw, this inequality becomes G(x,T x,t 2 x) < G(w,Tw,T 2 w), contradicting our choice of w. Secondly, we prove a fixed point result of Suzuki type in compact G-metric spaces: Theorem 3.2. Let (X,G) be a compact G- metric space and let T be a mapping on X. Assume that αg(x,t x,t x) < G(x,y,z),implies G(T x,ty,t z) < G(x,y,z), (3.3) for α (0, 2 1 ], x, y, z X. Then T has a unique fixed point.
http://www.ispacs.com/journals/jiasc/2015/jiasc-00071/ 24 Proof. If we consider then there exists a sequence (x n ) in X such that β = inf{g(x,t x,t x) : x X} lim G(x n,t x n,t x n ) = β. Since X is compact G- metric space, there exists v,w X such that a sequence (x n ) is G- converges to v X, and (T x n ) G- converge to w X. We assume β > 0. Hence, by the continuity of the function G, we have We can choose k N such that for n N with n k. Thus, β = lim G(x n,t x n,t x n ) = G(v,w,w) = lim G(x n,w,w) G(x n,w,w) > 2 3 β,and G(x n,t x n,t x n ) < 2 3α β G(x n,t x n,t x n ) < 2 3α β < 1 α G(x n,w,w) αg(x n,t x n,t x n ) < G(x n,w,w) f or n k. By hypotheses (3.3), G(T x n,tw,tw) < G(x n,w,w) holds for n k. This implies G(w,Tw,Tw) = lim G(x n,tw,tw) lim G(x n,w,w) = β From the definition of β, we obtain G(w, Tw, Tw) = β. Since αg(w, Tw, Tw) < G(w, Tw, Tw), we have G(Tw,T 2 w,t 2 w) < G(w,Tw,Tw) = β which contradicts the definition of β. Therefore we obtain β = 0. We next show that T has a fixed point. We assume that T does not have a fixed point. Then G(T x n,t 2 x n,t 2 x n ) < G(x n,t x n,t x n ) (3.4) holds for every n N because 0 < αg(x n,t x n,t x n ) < G(x n,t x n,t x n ). We have lim G(v,T x n,t x n ) = G(v,w,w) = lim G(x n,t x n,t x n ) = β = 0; which implies that (T x n ) also G-converges to v. Using the rectangle inequality ( We put x = v, y = T 2 x n, a = T 2 x n ), we have lim G(v,T 2 x n,t 2 x n ) lim G(v,T x n,t x n ) + lim G(T x n,t 2 x n,t 2 x n ) using (3.4), we get Thus, (T 2 x n ) G-converges to v. If then we have lim G(v,T 2 x n,t 2 x n ) lim G(v,T x n,t x n ) + lim G(x n,t x n,t x n ) = 0. αg(x n,t x n,t x n ) G(x n,v,v) and αg(t x n,t 2 x n,t 2 x n ) G(v,T x n,t x n ) G(x n,t x n,t x n ) G(x n,v,v) + G(T x n,t x n,v) αg(x n,t x n,t x n ) + αg(t x n,t 2 x n,t 2 x n ) < αg(x n,t x n,t x n ) + αg(x n,t x n,t x n ) = 2αG(x n,t x n,t x n ) (2α 1)G(x n,t x n,t x n ) > 0,hence (2α 1) > 0 = α > 1 2
http://www.ispacs.com/journals/jiasc/2015/jiasc-00071/ 25 which is a contradiction. Hence for every n N, either αg(x n,t x n,t x n ) < G(x n,v,v) or αg(t x n,t 2 x n,t 2 x n ) < G(T x n,t x n,v) holds. So by hypotheses (3.3), we conclude that one of the following inequalities holds for all n in an infinite subset of N: G(T x n,t v,t v) < G(x n,v,v) or G(T 2 x n,t 2 x n,t v) < G(T x n,t x n,v) holds. Hence one of the following holds: In the first case, we obtain which implies T v = v. Also, in the second case, we obtain G(v,T v,t v) = lim G(T x n,t v,t v) < lim G(x n,v,v) = 0 G(v,v,T v) = lim G(T 2 x n,t 2 x n,t v) < lim G(T x n,t x n,v) = 0. Hence, we have v is a fixed point of T in both cases, this is a contradiction, therefore T has a fixed point.to prove the uniqueness, fix y, z, x X with y z x. Then since αg(x,t x,t x) = 0 < G(x,y,z), we have G(T x,ty,t z) = G(x,y,z) < G(x,y,z), this is a contradiction, and hence T has a unique fixed point. Corollary 3.1. Let (X,G) be a compact G- metric space and T be a mapping on X. Assume that αg(x,t x,x) < G(x,y,z),implies G(T x,ty,t z) < G(x,y,z) for α (0, 2 1 ], x, y, z X. Then T has a unique fixed point. Example 3.2. Let X = 0,1] and G(x,y,z) = x y + y z + x z be a G-metric on X. Define T : X X by T x = x 4. Then T satisfies the condition of Theorem 2.4 and so T has a unique fixed point. Proof. For all x, y, z X, we have G(T x,ty,t z) = 1 ( x y + y z + x z ) < x y + y z + x z = G(x,y,z) 4 and hence G(T x,ty,t z) < G(x,y,z). Now for x = 0, we have αg(x,t x,t x) = G(0,0,0) = 0 < G(x,y,z),Then for all x,y,z X. αg(x,t x,t x) < G(x,y,z) = G(T x,ty,t z) < G(x,y,z), Finally, We prove a fixed point theorems for self- mapping satisfying a new contractive condition in compact G-metric spaces which generalized the Theorem(3.1): Theorem 3.3. Let T be a continuous mapping of a compact G- metric space X into itself satisfying the condition G(T x,ty,t z) ] G(x,Ty,T z)g(y,t x,t z)g(z,ty,t x)g(x,t x,t x) + G(y,Ty,T z) + G(x,y,z) < α 1 + G(x,Ty,T z)g(y,t x,t z)g(x,t x,t z)g(y,ty,ty)g(z,t z,t z) + G(y,T x,t z)g(x,y,z) + γg(y,t x,t z) + δg(x,y,z), for all x, y, z X,where α, γ, δ are non negative reals such that 2α + γ + δ < 1.Then T has unique fixed point.
http://www.ispacs.com/journals/jiasc/2015/jiasc-00071/ 26 Proof. We define a function f on X, such that f (x) = G(x, T x, x).since T is G-continuous, therefore f is also. From compactness of X, there exist p X, such that f (p) = inf{ f (x) : x X}, G(p,T p, p) < G(x,T x,x) (3.5) if f (p) 0, it follows that T (p) p, then f (T (p)) = G(T p,t (T (p)), p) = G(T p,t 2 p,t p) < G(T p,t 2 p,t p)g(t p,t p,t p)g(p,t 2 p,t p)g(p,t p,t p) + G(T p,t 2 ] p,t p) + G(p,T p, p) α 1 + G(p,T 2 p,t p)g(t p,t p,t p)g(p,t p,t p)g(t p,t 2 p,t 2 p)g(p,t p,t p) + G(T p,t p,t p)g(p,t p, p) (1 α)g(t p,t 2 p,t p) < (α + δ)g(p,t p, p) G(T p,t 2 p,t p) < + γg(t p,t p,t p) + δg(p,t p, p) < αg(p,t p, p) + δg(p,t p, p) + αg(t p,t 2 p,t p), (α + δ) G(p,T p, p) < G(p,T p, p), (1 α) because 2α +γ +δ < 1,which is a contradiction of condition (3.5), and so p = T (p).to prove the uniqueness, suppose that T (p 1 ) = p 1,T (p 2 ) = p 2,then G(T p 1,T p 2,T p 1 ) = G(p 1, p 2, p 1 ) ] G(p2, p 2, p 1 ) + G(p 1, p 2, p 1 ) < α + γg(p 2, p 1, p 1 ) + δg(p 1, p 2, p 1 ) 1 + G(p 2, p 1, p 1 )G(p 1, p 2, p 1 ) by use proposition(2.2), we get ] G(p 1, p 2, p 1 ) G(T p 1,T p 2,T p 1 ) = G(p 1, p 2, p 1 ) < 2α 1 + G(p 1, p 2, p 1 )G(p 1, p 2, p 1 ) where This is a contradiction, hence p is a unique fixed point. + 2γG(p 2, p 1, p 1 ) + δg(p 1, p 2, p 1 ) G(p 1, p 2, p 1 ) < (2α + γ + δ)g(p 1, p 2, p 1 ) < G(p 1, p 2, p 1 ). Theorem 3.4. Let T be a continuous mapping of a compact G- metric space X into itself satisfying the conditions G(T x,ty,t z) ] G(x,Ty,T z)g(y,t x,t z)g(z,ty,t x)g(y,ty,ty) + G(y,Ty,T z) + G(x,y,z) < α 1 + G(x,Ty,T z)g(y,t x,t z)g(x,t x,t z)g(y,ty,ty)g(z,t z,t z) + G(y,T x,t z)g(x,y,z) + δg(x,y,z), f or all x,y,z X, where α,δ are non negative reals such that 2α + δ < 1.Then T has unique fixed point. Proof. We define a function f on X, such that f (x) = G(x,T x,x). From compactness of X, there exist p X, such that f (p) = inf{ f (x) : x X}, if f (p) 0, it follows that T (p) p, then f (T (p)) = G(T p,t 2 p,t p) < G(T p,t 2 p,t p)g(t p,t p,t p)g(p,t 2 p,t p)g(t p,t 2 p,t 2 p) + G(T p,t 2 ] p,t p) + G(p,T p, p) α 1 + G(p,T 2 p,t p)g(t p,t p,t p)g(p,t p,t p)g(t p,t 2 p,t 2 p)g(p,t p,t p) + G(T p,t p,t p)g(p,t p, p) + δg(p,t p, p), G(T p,t 2 p,t p) < αg(p,t p, p) + δg(p,t p, p) + αg(t p,t 2 p,t p), (1 α)g(t p,t 2 p,t p) < (α + δ)g(p,t p, p) G(T p,t 2 p,t p) < (α + δ) G(p,T p, p) < G(p,T p, p), (1 α) because 2α + δ < 1, which is a contradiction, and so p = T (p). Using the same method of Theorem (3.6), we can prove the uniqueness.
http://www.ispacs.com/journals/jiasc/2015/jiasc-00071/ 27 Theorem 3.5. Let T be a continuous mapping of a compact G- metric space X into itself satisfying the conditions G(T x,ty,t z) ] G(x,Ty,T z)g(y,t x,t z)g(z,ty,t x)g(z,t z,t z) + G(y,Ty,T z) + G(x,y,z) < α 1 + G(x,Ty,T z)g(y,t x,t z)g(x,t x,t z)g(y,ty,ty)g(z,t z,t z) + G(y,T x,t z)g(x,y,z) + δg(x,y,z), for all x,y,z X,where α,δ are non negative reals such that 2α + δ < 1.Then T has unique fixed point.
