Some notes on PD-operator pairs

Abstract

This paper points out several remarks on the paper of Pathak and Rai[H. K.Pathak and D. Rai, Common fixed point theorems for PD-operator pairs under relaxed con-ditions with applications, Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 239 (2013)103-113]. In fact, under contractive conditions (assumed in the above paper), proving existence of common fixed point by assuming the notion of PD-operator is equivalent to proving the existence of common fixed point by assuming the existence of common fixed point.
