    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.

    A Note on 'coupled Fixed Point Theorems for Mixed g-monotone Mappings in Partially Ordered Metric Spaces'
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2014) Bilgili, Nurcan; Erhan, Inci M.; Karapinar, Erdal; Turkoglu, Duran
    Recently, some (common) coupled fixed theorems in various abstract spaces have appeared as a generalization of existing (usual) fixed point results. Unexpectedly, we noticed 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 very recent paper of Turkoglu and Sangurlu 'Coupled fixed point theorems for mixed g-monotone mappings in partially ordered metric spaces [Fixed Point Theory and Applications 2013, 2013:348]' can be considered as a consequence of the existing fixed point theorems on the topic in the literature. Furthermore, we give an example to illustrate that the main results of Turkoglu and Sangurlu (Fixed Point Theory Appl. 2013:348, 2013) has limited applicability compared to the mentioned existing fixed point result.

    Fixed Point Results for gm< Contractive and g-(α, Ψ)-Meir Contractive Mappings
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2013) Hussain, Nawab; Karapinar, Erdal; Salimi, Peyman; Vetro, Pasquale
    In this paper, first we introduce the notion of a G(m)-Meir-Keeler contractive mapping and establish some fixed point theorems for the G(m)-Meir-Keeler contractive mapping in the setting of G-metric spaces. Further, we introduce the notion of a G(c)(m)-Meir-Keeler contractive mapping in the setting of G-cone metric spaces and obtain a fixed point result. Later, we introduce the notion of a G-(alpha, psi)-Meir-Keeler contractive mapping and prove some fixed point theorems for this class of mappings in the setting of G-metric spaces.

    Cyclic Contractions Via Auxiliary Functions on g-metric Spaces
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2013) Bilgili, Nurcan; Karapinar, Erdal
    In this paper, we prove the existence and uniqueness of fixed points of certain cyclic mappings via auxiliary functions in the context of G-metric spaces, which were introduced by Zead and Sims. In particular, we extend, improve and generalize some earlier results in the literature on this topic.
