    g-metric Spaces in Any Number of Arguments and Related Fixed-Point Theorems
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2014) Roldan, Antonio; Karapinar, Erdal; Kumam, Poom
    Inspired by the notion of Mustafa and Sims' G-metric space and the attention that this kind of metric has received in recent times, we introduce the concept of a G-metric space in any number of variables, and we study some of the basic properties. Then we prove that the family of this kind of metric is closed under finite products. Finally, we show some fixed-point theorems that improve and extend some well-known results in this field.

    On α-ψ< Contractive Mappings
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2013) Karapinar, Erdal; Kumam, Poom; Salimi, Peyman
    In this paper, we introduce the notion of alpha-psi-Meir-Keeler contractive mappings via a triangular alpha-admissible mapping. We discuss the existence and uniqueness of a fixed point of such a mapping in the setting of complete metric spaces. We state a number of examples to illustrate our results. MSC: 46N40, 47H10, 54H25, 46T99.

    Coupled fixed point theorems in cone metric spaces with a c-distance and applications
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2012) Karapinar, Erdal; Kumam, Poom; Sintunavarat, Wutiphol
    In this paper, we extend the very recent result of Sintunavarat et al. in the paper 'Coupled fixed point theorems for weak contraction mapping under F-invariant set' (Abstr. Appl. Anal. 2012:324874, 2012). In particular, we give an example of a nonlinear contraction mapping for which our result successfully detects a coupled fixed point in contrast to the result of Sintunavarat et al., which is not applied to show the existence of a coupled fixed point. As a consequence, the main results in this paper extend and unify many results in the topic of coupled fixed points including the results of Sintunavarat et al. Also, some applications of the main results are given. MSC: 54H25, 47H10.
