Contractive maps have nice properties concerning fixed points; a big amount of literature has been devoted to fixed points of nonexpansive maps. The class of shrinking (or strictly contractive) maps is slightly less popular: few specific results on them (not applicable to all nonexpansive maps) appear in the literature and some interesting problems remain open.

Abstract
Contractive maps have nice properties concerning fixed points; a big amount of literature has been devoted to fixed points of nonexpansive maps. The class of shrinking (or strictly contractive) maps is slightly less popular: few specific results on them (not applicable to all nonexpansive maps) appear in the literature and some interesting problems remain open. As an attempt to fill this gap, a condition half way between shrinking and contractive maps has been studied recently. Here we continue the study of the latter notion, solving some open problems concerning these maps.
