A critical remark on “Fixed point theorems for occasionally weakly compatible mappings”

In the present paper, we show that under contractive conditions, the existence of a common fixed point and occasional weak compatibility are equivalent conditions. We also show that contractive conditions employed by Jungck and Rhoades [Fixed point theorems for occasionally weakly compatible mapping...
