    A Generalized Contraction Principle With Control Functions on Partial Metric Spaces
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2012) Abdeljawad, Thabet; Karapinar, Erdal; Tas, Kenan
    Partial metric spaces were introduced by Matthews in 1994 as a part of the study of denotational semantics of data flow networks. In this article, we prove a generalized contraction principle with control functions phi and psi on partial metric spaces. The theorems we prove generalize many previously obtained results. We also give some examples showing that our theorems are indeed proper extensions. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Fixed points for cyclic orbital generalized contractions on complete metric spaces
    (de Gruyter Open Ltd, 2013) Karapinar, Erdal; Romaguera, Salvador; Tas, Kenan
    We prove a fixed point theorem for cyclic orbital generalized contractions on complete metric spaces from which we deduce, among other results, generalized cyclic versions of the celebrated Boyd and Wong fixed point theorem, and Matkowski fixed point theorem. This is done by adapting to the cyclic framework a condition of Meir-Keeler type discussed in [Jachymski J., Equivalent conditions and the Meir-Keeler type theorems, J. Math. Anal. Appl., 1995, 194(1), 293-303]. Our results generalize some theorems of Kirk, Srinavasan and Veeramani, and of Karpagam and Agrawal.
