We define and study a quantale-valued Wijsman structure on the hyperspace of all non-empty closed sets of a quantale-valued metric space. We show its admissibility and that the metrical coreflection coincides with the quantale-valued Hausdorff metric and that, for a metric space, the topological coreflection coincides with the classical Wijsman topology. We further define an index of compactnes...

A common fixed point result for weakly increasing mappings satisfying generalized contractive type of Zhang in ordered metric spaces are derived.

*Correspondence: [email protected] Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics, Plovdiv University, Plovdiv, 4000, Bulgaria Abstract In this paper, we develop a unified theory for cone metric spaces over a solid vector space. As an application of the new theory, we present full statements of the iterated contraction principle and the Banach contraction principle in cone metric spaces over a sol...

We introduce the functor ◦∗ which assigns to every metric space X its symmetric join ◦∗X . As a set, ◦∗X is a union of intervals connecting ordered pairs of points in X . Topologically, ◦∗X is a natural quotient of the usual join of X with itself. We define an Isom(X)–invariant metric d∗ on ◦∗X . Classical concepts known for H and negatively curved manifolds are defined in a precise way for any...

Based on previous results that study the completion of fuzzy metric spaces, we show that every intuitionistic fuzzy quasi-metric space, using the notion of fuzzy metric space in the sense of Kramosil and Michalek to obtain a generalization to the quasi-metric setting, has a bicompletion which is unique up to isometry.

In 2007, Long-Guang and Xian[3] replaced introduced cone metric spaces. They replaced the set of real numbers by an ordered Banach space in the definition of metric and generalized the notion of metric space. Recently, Ayse Sönemaz [5] proved a cone metric space with a normal cone, of course it has to be strongly minihedral, is paracompact. In this paper we omit the strongly minihedral of cone....
