We consider the relationship between when the r-times composition of two maps commute, and the concepts of coincidence point, weakly compatible mappings, (EA)-property, (EA)-like property, and compatible mappings of type (A), and obtain some higher-order fixed point theorems in the sense of [Clement Ampadu, Fixed Point Theory for Higher-Order Mappings.
