A Common Fixed Point Theorem in -Metric Spaces
Fixed Point Theory and Applications volume 2007, Article number: 027906 (2007)
Abstract
We give some new definitions of -metric spaces and we prove a common fixed point theorem for a class of mappings under the condition of weakly commuting mappings in complete -metric spaces. We get some improved versions of several fixed point theorems in complete -metric spaces.
