Abstract
In this paper, we prove Kannan - type fixed point theorem for four self mappings
in non-normal cone pentagonal metric spaces. Our results extend and improve the
recent results announced by many authors.
AMS subject classification: 47H10, 54H25.

ping principle, Weakly compatible maps.
1. Introduction
Let (X, d) be a metric space and S : X → X be a mapping. Then S is called Kannan
contraction if there exists α ∈[0, 1/2) such that
d(Sx,Sy) ≤ α
d(x,Sx) + d(y,Sy)
, for all x,y ∈ X. (1)
Kannan [10] proved that if X is complete, then every Kannan contraction has a fixed
point.
