recently, choudhury and metiya [fixed points of weak contractions in cone metric spaces, nonlinear analysis 72 (2010) 1589-1593] proved some fixed point theorems for weak contractions in cone metric spaces. weak contractions are generalizations of the banach's contraction mapping, which have been studied by several authors. in this paper, we introduce the notion of $f$-weak contractions and als...

The aim of this paper is to obtain extended variants of some common fixed point results in cone metric spaces in the case that the underlying cone is not normal. The first result concerns g-quasicontractions of D. Ilić and V. Rakočević [Common fixed points for maps on cone metric space, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 341 (2008), 876–882], and the second is concerned with HardyRogers-type conditions and e...

Wardowski (2011) in this paper for a normal cone metric space (X, d) and for the family A of subsets of X established a new cone metric H : A × A → E and obtained fixed point of set-valued contraction of Nadler type. Further, it is noticed in the work of Janković et al., 2011 that the fixed-point problem in the setting of cone metric spaces is appropriate only in the case when the underlying co...

and Applied Analysis 3 effectively larger than that of the ordinary conemetric spaces. That is, every cone metric space is a cone b-metric space, but the converse need not be true. The following examples show the above remarks. Example 7. Let X = {−1, 0, 1}, E = R, andP = {(x, y) : x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0}. Define d : X × X → P by d(x, y) = d(y, x) for all x, y ∈ X, d(x, x) = θ, x ∈ X, and d(−1, 0) = (3, ...

Introduction. We propose to investigate here the consequences of the identity of each pair chosen from three important generalizations of the relation of betweenness on a line, namely, algebraic betweenness [l, p. 27 J, metric betweenness [3, p. 36], and lattice betweenness [7, Part I I ] . We shall also find an interpretation of metric betweenness in the Banach space of all continuous function...
