    Θ-Metric Space: a Generalization
    (Hindawi Ltd, 2013) Khojasteh, Farshid; Karapınar, Erdal; Karapinar, Erdal; Radenovic, Stojan; Karapınar, Erdal; Mathematics; Mathematics
    We introduce the notion of theta-metric as a generalization of a metric by replacing the triangle inequality with a more generalized inequality. We investigate the topology of the spaces induced by a theta-metric and present some essential properties of it. Further, we give characterization of well-known fixed point theorems, such as the Banach and Caristi types in the context of such spaces.
