The concept of a 2-metric space, introduced by S. GAHLER [l], provides a natural abstraction of the area function for EnoLIDean triangles. Recently, KHAN and FISHER [2] have introduced a necessary and sufficient condition which guarantees the existence of a common fixed point for a pair of continuo

Abstract
In a Banach space E (pre)ordered by a cone we consider a mapping f : [v,w] โ E (v,w โ E, v โค w) which satisfies v โค f(v) and f(w) โค w. We show that f has a smallest and a greatest fixed point, if it is continuous, quasimonotone increasing and condensing, in essence. Finally we admit discontinuities with upward jumps.

## liitroduction In this paper we give common fixed point theorems for mappings fulfilling some nonlinear contraction type conditions on a 2-metric space. For the notions see 0 1. The concept of a %metric space (XI d ) has been investigated by S. GAHLER in [7]. For other papers on 2-metric spaces
