In this paper, we introduce a function in order to measure the distancebetween two order intervals of fuzzy numbers, and show that this function isa metric. We investigate some properties of this metric, and finally presentan application. We think that this study could provide a more generalframework for researchers studying on interval analysis, fuzzy analysis andfuzzy decision making.

In this paper, we study the existence of integral solutions of fuzzy fractional differential systems with nonlocal conditions under Caputo generalized Hukuhara derivatives. These models are considered in the framework of completegeneralized metric spaces in the sense of Perov. The novel feature of our approach is the combination of the convergentmatrix technique with Schauder fixed point princi...

In this paper we consider the so called a vector metric space, which is a generalization of metric space, where the metric is Riesz space valued. We prove some common fixed point theorems for three mappings in this space. Obtained results extend and generalize well-known comparable results in the literature.

1. INTRODUCTION. When studying a metric space, it is valuable to have a mental picture that displays distance accurately. When the space is Z, Q, or R, we usually form such a picture by imagining points on the " number line ". When the space is X = Z 2 , Q 2 , R 2 , or C we use a planar picture in which nonempty discs (sets of the form {x ∈ X : d(x, b) ≤ γ } or {x ∈ X : d(x, b) < β}, with metri...

In this paper, the notion of cyclic $varphi$-contraction in fuzzymetric spaces is introduced and a fixed point theorem for this typeof mapping is established. Meantime, an example is provided toillustrate this theorem. The main result shows that a self-mappingon a G-complete fuzzy metric space has a unique fixed point if itsatisfies the cyclic $varphi$-contraction. Afterwards, some results inco...
