In this paper a new fixed point theorem for upper semicontinuous set-valued mappings with closed acyclic values is established in the setting of an abstract convex structure – called a locally G-convex space, which generalises usual convexity such as locally convex H-spaces, locally convex spaces (locally H-convex spaces), hyperconvex metric spaces and locally convex topological spaces. Our fixed point theorem includes corresponding Fan-Glicksberg type fixed point theorems in locally convex H-spaces, locally convex spaces, hyperconvex metric space and locally convex spaces in the existing literature as special cases.
