A fixed point theorem for local pseudo-contractions in uniformly convex spaces

It is proved that if D is a bounded open subset of a uniformly convex Banach space X and is a continuous mapping which is a local pseudo-contraction (e.g., locally nonexpansive) on D, then T has a fixed point in D if there exists xD such that z–Tz<x–Tx for all x in the boundary of D.
