    On Almost Contractions in Partially Ordered Metric Spaces via Implicit Relations
    (Springeropen, 2012) Gul, Ugur; Karapinar, Erdal
    In this paper, we prove general fixed point theorems for self-maps of a partially ordered complete metric space which satisfy an implicit type relation. Our method relies on constructive arguments involving Picard type iteration processes and our uniqueness result uses comparability arguments. Our results generalize a multitude of fixed point theorems in the literature to the context of partially ordered metric spaces.

    A Generalization for the Best Proximity Point of Geraghty-Contractions
    (Springeropen, 2013) Bilgili, Nurcan; Karapinar, Erdal; Sadarangani, Kishin
    In this paper, we introduce the notion of Geraghty-contractions and consider the related best proximity point in the context of a metric space. We state an example to illustrate our result.

    A Short Note on c*-valued Contraction Mappings
    (Springeropen, 2016) Alsulami, Hamed H.; Agarwal, Ravi P.; Karapinar, Erdal; Khojasteh, Farshid
    In this short note we point out that the recently announced notion, the C*-valued metric, does not bring about a real extension in metric fixed point theory. Besides, fixed point results in the C*-valued metric can be derived from the desired Banach mapping principle and its famous consecutive theorems.

    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.
