چکیده

We show that a metric space embeds in the rectilinear plane (i.e., is L 1-embeddable in R 2) if and only if every subspace with five or six points does. A simple construction shows that for higher dimensions k of the host rectilinear space the number c(k) of points that need to be tested grows at least quadratically with k, thus disproving a conjecture of Seth and Jerome Malitz.

Embedding into the rectilinear grid

We show that the embedding of metric spaces into the l1-grid Z can be characterized in essentially the same fashion as in the case of the l1-plane R . In particular, a metric space can be embedded into Z iff every subspace with at most 6 points is embeddable. Moreover, if such an embedding exists, it can be constructed in polynomial time (for finite spaces) . q 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Netw...

Fixed point results in cone metric spaces endowed with a graph

In this paper, we prove the existence of fixed point for Chatterjea type mappings under $c$-distance in cone metric spaces endowed with a graph. The main results extend, generalized and unified some fixed point theorems on $c$-distance in metric and cone metric spaces.

Rational Geraghty Contractive Mappings and Fixed Point Theorems in Ordered $b_2$-metric Spaces

In 2014, Zead Mustafa introduced $b_2$-metric spaces, as a generalization of both $2$-metric and $b$-metric spaces. Then new fixed point results for the classes of  rational Geraghty contractive mappings of type I,II and III in the setup of $b_2$-metric spaces are investigated. Then, we prove some fixed point theorems under various contractive conditions in partially ordered $b_2$-metric spaces...
