    Some Remarks About the Existence of Coupled g-coincidence Points
    (Springeropen, 2015) Erhan, Inci M.; Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco; Shahzad, Naseer
    Very recently, in a series of subsequent papers, Nan and Charoensawan introduced the notion of g-coincidence point of two mappings in different settings (metric spaces and G-metric spaces) and proved some theorems in order to guarantee the existence and uniqueness of such kind of points. Although their notion seems to be attractive, in this paper, we show how this concept can be reduced to the unidimensional notion of coincidence point, and how their main theorems can be seen as particular cases of existing results. Moreover, we prove that the proofs of their main statements have some gaps.

    Discussion on Generalized-(αψ, Βφ)-Contractive Mappings Via Generalized Altering Distance Function and Related Fixed Point Theorems
    (Hindawi Ltd, 2014) Berzig, Maher; Karapinar, Erdal; Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco
    We extend the notion of (alpha psi, beta phi)-contractive mapping, a very recent concept by Berzig and Karapinar. This allows us to consider contractive conditions that generalize a wide range of nonexpansive mappings in the setting of metric spaces provided with binary relations that are not necessarily neither partial orders nor preorders. Thus, using this kind of contractive mappings, we show some related fixed point theorems that improve some well known recent results and can be applied in a variety of contexts.

    On Some Fixed Point Theorems Under (α, Ψ, Φ)-Contractivity Conditions in Metric Spaces Endowed With Transitive Binary Relations
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2015) Shahzad, Naseer; Karapinar, Erdal; Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco
    After the appearance of Nieto and Rodriguez-Lopez's theorem, the branch of fixed point theory devoted to the setting of partially ordered metric spaces have attracted much attention in the last years, especially when coupled, tripled, quadrupled and, in general, multidimensional fixed points are studied. Almost all papers in this direction have been forced to present two results assuming two different hypotheses: the involved mapping should be continuous or the metric framework should be regular. Both conditions seem to be different in nature because one of them refers to the mapping and the other one is assumed on the ambient space. In this paper, we unify such different conditions in a unique one. By introducing the notion of continuity of a mapping from a metric space into itself depending on a function alpha, which is the case that covers the partially ordered setting, we extend some very recent theorems involving control functions that only must be lower/upper semi-continuous from the right. Finally, we use metric spaces endowed with transitive binary relations rather than partial orders.

    Some Inevitable Remarks on "tripled Fixed Point Theorems for Mixed Monotone Kannan Type Contractive Mappings"
    (Hindawi Publishing Corp, 2014) Alsulami, Hamed H.; Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco; Karapinar, Erdal; Radenovic, Stojan
    We advise that the proof of Theorem 12 given by Borcut et al. (2014) is not correct, and it cannot be corrected using the same technique. Furthermore, we present some similar results as an approximation to the opened question if that statement is valid.

    Coincidence Point Theorems in Quasi-Metric Spaces Without Assuming the Mixed Monotone Property and Consequences in g-metric Spaces
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2014) Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco; Karapinar, Erdal; de la Sen, Manuel
    In this paper, we present some coincidence point theorems in the setting of quasi-metric spaces that can be applied to operators which not necessarily have the mixed monotone property. As a consequence, we particularize our results to the field of metric spaces, partially ordered metric spaces and G-metric spaces, obtaining some very recent results. Finally, we show how to use our main theorems to obtain coupled, tripled, quadrupled and multidimensional coincidence point results.

    A Note on '(g, f)-closed Set and Tripled Point of Coincidence Theorems for Generalized Compatibility in Partially Metric Spaces'
    (Springeropen, 2014) Karapinar, Erdal; Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco
    Recently, some (common) multidimensional fixed theorems in partially ordered complete metric spaces have appeared as a generalization of existing (usual) fixed point results. Unexpectedly, we realized that most of such (common) coupled fixed theorems are either weaker or equivalent to existing fixed point results in the literature. In particular, we prove that the results included in the very recent paper (Charoensawan and Thangthong in Fixed Point Theory Appl. 2014:245, 2014) can be considered as a consequence of existing fixed point theorems on the topic in the literature.

    Irremissible Stimulate on 'unified Fixed Point Theorems in Fuzzy Metric Spaces Via Common Limit Range Property'
    (Springeropen, 2014) Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco; Karapinar, Erdal; Kumam, Poom
    One of the goals of this short note is to alert researchers as regards some mistakes that appeared in a recent paper (Chauhan, Khan and Kumar in J. Inequal. Appl. 2013: 182, 2013). This entails main proofs based on a false result, which invalidates all statements. We also give a complete revision of the antecedents of this work in order to find the main reasons of the mistakes. Finally, the main aim of this note is to propose a correct, more general version of the main theorems in the paper mentioned.

    A Proposal to the Study of Contractions in Quasi-Metric Spaces
    (Hindawi Ltd, 2014) Alsulami, Hamed H.; Karapinar, Erdal; Khojasteh, Farshid; Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco
    We investigate the existence and uniqueness of a fixed point of an operator via simultaneous functions in the setting of complete quasi-metric spaces. Our results generalize and improve several recent results in literature.

    Some remarks on 'Multidimensional fixed point theorems for isotone mappings in partially ordered metric spaces'
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2014) Agarwal, Ravi P.; Karapinar, Erdal; Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco
    The main aim of this paper is to advise researchers in the field of Fixed Point Theory against an extended mistake that can be found in some proofs. We illustrate our claim proving that theorems in the very recent paper (Wang in Fixed Point Theory Appl. 2014: 137, 2014) are incorrect, and we provide different corrected versions of them.

    Remarks on 'Coupled coincidence point results for a generalized compatible pair with applications'
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2014) Erhan, Inci M.; Karapinar, Erdal; Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco; Shahzad, Naseer
    Very recently, Hussain et al. (Fixed Point Theory Appl. 2014:62, 2014) announced the existence and uniqueness of some coupled coincidence point. In this short note we remark that the announced results can be derived from the coincidence point results in the literature.
