The main purpose of this paper is to introduce several concepts of the metric-like spaces. For instance, we define concepts such as equal-like points, cluster points and completely separate points. Furthermore, this paper is an attempt to present compatibility definitions for the distance between a point and a subset of a metric-like space and also for the distance between two subsets of a metr...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of an extended metric space ($p$-metric space) as a new generalization of the concept of $b$-metric space. Also, we present the concept of $(psi ,varphi )_{Omega}$-contractive mappings and we establish some fixed point results for this class of mappings in ordered complete $p$-metric spaces. Our results generalize several well...

in this paper, we generalize fuzzy banach contraction theorem establishedby v. gregori and a. sapena [fuzzy sets and systems 125 (2002) 245-252]using notion of altering distance which was initiated by khan et al. [bull. austral.math. soc., 30(1984), 1-9] in metric spaces.

in this paper, we introduce a new class of implicit functions and also common property (e.a) in modified intuitionistic fuzzy metric spaces and utilize the same to prove some common fixed point theorems in modified intuitionistic fuzzy metric spaces besides discussing related results and illustrative examples. we are not aware of any paper dealing with such implicit functions in modified intuit...

we consider the concept of ω-distance on a complete partially ordered g-metric space and prove some common fi xed point theorems.

the sequential $p$-convergence in a fuzzy metric space, in the sense of george and veeramani, was introduced by d. mihet as a weaker concept than convergence. here we introduce a stronger concept called $s$-convergence, and we characterize those fuzzy metric spaces in which convergent sequences are $s$-convergent. in such a case $m$ is called an $s$-fuzzy metric. if $(n_m,ast)$ is a fuzzy metri...

In this paper, the poset $BX$ of formal balls is studied in fuzzy partial metric space $(X,p,*)$. We introduce the notion of layered complete fuzzy partial metric space and get that the poset $BX$ of formal balls is a dcpo if and only if $(X,p,*)$ is layered complete fuzzy partial metric space.

We define and study a quantale-valued Wijsman structure on the hyperspace of all non-empty closed sets of a quantale-valued metric space. We show its admissibility and that the metrical coreflection coincides with the quantale-valued Hausdorff metric and that, for a metric space, the topological coreflection coincides with the classical Wijsman topology. We further define an index of compactnes...

Based on previous results that study the completion of fuzzy metric spaces, we show that every intuitionistic fuzzy quasi-metric space, using the notion of fuzzy metric space in the sense of Kramosil and Michalek to obtain a generalization to the quasi-metric setting, has a bicompletion which is unique up to isometry.
