In 1965, Kirk proved that if
is a nonempty weakly compact convex subset of a Banach space with normal structure,
then every nonexpansive mapping
has a fixed point. The purpose of this paper is to outline various generalizations
of Kirk's fixed point theorem to semigroup of nonexpansive mappings and for Banach
spaces associated to a locally compact group.
