Cone-valued lower semicontinuous maps are used to generalize Cristi-Kirik’s fixed point theorem to Cone metric spaces. The cone under consideration is assumed to be strongly minihedral and normal. First we prove such a type of fixed point theorem in compact cone metric spaces and then generalize to complete cone metric spaces. Some more general results are also obtained in quasicone metric spaces. Copyright q 2009 T. Abdeljawad and E. Karapinar.
