| Summary: | The exploration of contractive inequalities which do not imply the continuity of the mapping at fixed points was an interesting open problem for quite some time. A significant amount of progress was made in the last two decades towards the solution of this problem. In the current paper, we attempt to address the question of discontinuity at fixed point with the help of <i>F</i>-contractions in a metric space. We establish a common fixed-point (CFP) result for such contractive mappings and investigate its discontinuity at the CFP. A fixed-circle result is also obtained consequently. |
