In 1964, A. I. Perov generalized the Banach contraction principle introducing, following the work of ¯D. Kurepa, a new approach to fixed point problems, by defining generalized metric spaces (also known as vector valued metric spaces), and providing some actual results for the first time. Using the recent approach of coordinate representation for a generalized metric of Jachymski and Klima, we verify in this article some natural properties of generalized metric spaces, already owned by standard metric spaces. Among other results, we show that the theorems of Nemytckii (1936) and Edelstein (1962) are valid in generalized metric spaces, as well. A new application to fractional differential equations is also presented. At the end we state a few open questions for young researchers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article, we introduce generalized cyclic contractions in the context of metric-like spaces and prove some new fixed point results concerning these contractions. Our results, extend and unify several results in existing literature. We present suitable examples to make our findings worth mentioning. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we introduce the concept of F--G--contraction mappings in F-metric spaces endowed with a graph and give some fixed point results for such contractions. Our results are generalization of some famous theorem in metric spaces to F--metric spaces endowed with a graph. Also, we give some examples that support obtained theoretical results.

This paper presents a new and general class of α - K ψ - s-contractions, involving α-admissible and - s simulation mappings considered in the setting of b-metric-like spaces. By applying this set of contractions associated with applications to integral equation, we unify, generalize, and increase the fixed point results range in the literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose is to ensure that a continuous convex contraction mapping of order two in b-metric spaces has a unique fixed point. Moreover, this result is generalized for convex contractions of order n in b-metric spaces and also in almost and quasi b-metric spaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we introduce the concept of a pair (f, h) called upper class of type II and αβ-contractive mappings. We obtain that all the corresponding established results of Hussain et al. [7] are immediately consequences of our main result. Our main result generalizes and modifies several existing results in literature. Also, an example is given to support the main result.
