The Fixed Points of Contractions of f-Quasimetric Spaces

详细

The recent articles of Arutyunov and Greshnov extend the Banach and Hadler Fixed-Point Theorems and the Arutyunov Coincidence-Point Theorem to the mappings of (q₁, q₂)-quasimetric spaces. This article addresses similar questions for f-quasimetric spaces.

Given a function f: R ₊² → R₊ with f(r₁, r₂) → 0 as (r₁, r₂) → (0, 0), an f-quasimetric space is a nonempty set X with a possibly asymmetric distance function ρ: X² → R+ satisfying the f-triangle inequality: ρ(x, z) ≤ f(ρ(x, y), ρ(y, z)) for x, y, z ∈ X. We extend the Banach Contraction Mapping Principle, as well as Krasnoselskii’s and Browder’s Theorems on generalized contractions, to mappings of f-quasimetric spaces.
