Introduction: Appropriate definition of the distance measure between diffusion tensors has a deep impact on Diffusion Tensor Image (DTI) segmentation results. The geodesic metric is the best distance measure since it yields high-quality segmentation results. However, the important problem with the geodesic metric is a high computational cost of the algorithms based on it. The main goal of this ...

recently, rahimi et al. [comp. appl. math. 2013, in press] dened the conceptof quadrupled xed point in k-metric spaces and proved several quadrupled xed pointtheorems for solid cones on k-metric spaces. in this paper some quadrupled xed point resultsfor t-contraction on k-metric spaces without normality condition are proved. obtainedresults extend and generalize well-known comparable result...

Malignant melanoma is a highly aggressive skin cancer that can be difficult to manage once metastasis has occurred. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNFα) is a cytokine that influences the tumor microenvironment, activates tumor inflammation, and induces cell death(Balkwill, 2009). TNFα induces the signal-transduction pathways associated with cell survival through NF-κB or caspase 8. Melanoma cells ...

‎In this study‎, ‎we investigate topological properties of fuzzy strong‎ b-metric spaces defined in [13]‎. ‎Firstly‎, ‎we prove Baire's theorem for‎ ‎these spaces‎. ‎Then we define the product of two fuzzy strong b-metric spaces‎ ‎defined with same continuous t-norms and show that $X_{1}times X_{2}$ is a‎ ‎complete fuzzy strong b-metric space if and only if $X_{1}$ and $X_{2}$ are‎ ‎complete fu...

There are two definitions of Einstein-Finsler spaces introduced by Akbar-Zadeh, which we will show is equal along the integral curves $I$-invariant projective vector fields. The sub-algebra $C$-projective fields, leaving $H$-curvature invariant, has been studied extensively. Here on a closed Finsler space with negative definite Ricci curvature reduces to that Killing Moreover, if an admits such...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of an extended metric space ($p$-metric space) as a new generalization of the concept of $b$-metric space. Also, we present the concept of $(psi ,varphi )_{Omega}$-contractive mappings and we establish some fixed point results for this class of mappings in ordered complete $p$-metric spaces. Our results generalize several well...

Partial metric spaces were introduced by Matthews in 1994 as a part of the study of denotational semantics of data flow networks. In 2014 Asadi and {it et al.} [New Extension of $p$-Metric Spaces with Some fixed point Results on $M$-metric paces, J. Ineq. Appl. 2014 (2014): 18] extend the Partial metric spaces to $M$-metric spaces. In this work, we introduce the class of $F(psi,varphi)$-contrac...

in this paper, we improve some recent coupled fixed point resultsfor single-valued operators in the framework of ordered $b$-metricspaces established by bota et al. [m-f. bota, a. petrusel, g.petrusel and b. samet, coupled fixed point theorems forsingle-valued operators in b-metric spaces, fixed point theoryappl. (2015) 2015:231]. also, we prove that perov-type fixed pointtheorem in ordered gen...
