A selfmapping f of a metric space (X, d) is nonexpansive (ε-nonexpansive) if d(f(x), f(y)) ≤ d(x, y) for all x, y ∊ X (respectively if d(x, y) < ε). In [1], M. Edelstein proved that a nonexpansive mapping f of En admits a fixed point provided the f-closure of En (i.e. the set of all points which are cluster points of {fn(x)} for some x) is nonempty. R. D. Holmes [2] considered commutative semigroups of selfmappings of a metric space and obtained fixed point theorems for such semigroups under certain contractivity conditions.
