I was looking at this definition of a contractive function and the only difference I saw between it and a Lipschitz function was the b and M. I am just wondering how you look at the connections between them.

for contraction mapping the main thing is that ##b<1##. Moreover, contraction takes a metric space into itself. Each contraction is a Lip. mapping
