Abstract In the paper, we continue the research of Borsík and Doboš on functions which allow us to introduce a metric to the product of metric spaces. We extend their scope to a broader class of spaces which usually fail to satisfy the triangle inequality, albeit they tend to satisfy some weaker form of this axiom. In particular, we examine the behavior of functions preserving b-metric inequality. We provide analogues of the results of Borsík and Doboš adjusted to the new broader setting. The results we obtained are illustrated with multitude of examples. Furthermore, the connections of newly introduced families of functions with the ones already known from the literature are investigated.

AbstractA quasi-metric is a distance function which satisfies the triangle inequality but is not symmetric in general. Quasi-metrics are a subject of comprehensive investigation both in pure and applied mathematics in areas such as in functional analysis, topology and computer science. The main purpose of this paper is to extend the convergence and Cauchy conditions in a quasi-metric space by using the notion of asymptotic density. Furthermore, some results obtained are related to completeness, compactness and precompactness in this setting using statistically Cauchy sequences.

In this paper, we introduce the concept of extended partial S b -metric spaces, which is a generalization of the extended S b -metric spaces. Basically, in the triangle inequality, we add a control function with some very interesting properties. These new metric spaces generalize many results in the literature. Moreover, we prove some fixed point theorems under some different contractions, and some examples are given to illustrate our results.

In this article, in the sequel of extending b-metric spaces, we modify controlled metric type spaces via two control functions α ( x , y ) and μ ( x , y ) on the right-hand side of the b - triangle inequality, that is, d ( x , y ) ≤ α ( x , z ) d ( x , z ) + μ ( z , y ) d ( z , y ) , for all x , y , z ∈ X . Some examples of a double controlled metric type space by two incomparable functions, which is not a controlled metric type by one of the given functions, are presented. We also provide some fixed point results involving Banach type, Kannan type and ϕ -nonlinear type contractions in the setting of double controlled metric type spaces.

Metric spaces provide a framework for analysis and have several very useful properties. Many of these properties follow in part from the  triangle inequality. However, there are several applications in which the triangle inequality does not hold but in which we may still like to perform analysis. This paper investigates what happens if the triangle inequality is removed all together, leaving what is called a distance space, and also what happens if the triangle inequality is replaced with a much more general two parameter relation, which is herein called the "power triangle inequality". The power triangle inequality represents an uncountably large class of inequalities, and includes the  triangle inequality,  relaxed triangle inequality, and   inframetric inequality as special cases. The power triangle inequality is defined in terms of a function that is herein called the power triangle function. The power triangle function is itself a power mean, and as such is continuous and monotone with respect to its exponential parameter, and also includes the operations of  maximum,  minimum,  mean square,  arithmetic mean, geometric mean, and  harmonic mean as special cases.

AbstractA generalized metric space has been defined by Branciari as a metric space in which the triangle inequality is replaced by a more general inequality. Subsequently, some classical metric fixed point theorems have been transferred to such a space. In this paper, we continue in this direction and prove a version of Fisher’s fixed point theorem in generalized metric spaces.

AbstractDetermining meaningful lower bounds on the supremal strict p-negative type of classes of finite metric spaces is a difficult nonlinear problem. In this paper we use an elementary approach to obtain the following result: given a finite metric space (X,d) there is a constant ζ>0, dependent only on n=∣X∣ and the scaled diameter 𝔇=(diamX)/min{d(x,y)∣x⁄=y} of X (which we may assume is >1), such that (X,d) has p-negative type for all p∈[0,ζ] and strict p-negative type for all p∈[0,ζ). In fact, we obtain A consideration of basic examples shows that our value of ζ is optimal provided that 𝔇≤2. In other words, for each 𝔇∈(1,2] and natural number n≥3, there exists an n-point metric space of scaled diameter 𝔇 whose supremal strict p-negative type is exactly ζ. The results of this paper hold more generally for all finite semi-metric spaces since the triangle inequality is not used in any of the proofs. Moreover, ζ is always optimal in the case of finite semi-metric spaces.

In metric fixed point theory, the conditions like “symmetry” and “triangle inequality” play a predominant role. In this paper, we introduce a new kind of metric space by using symmetry, triangle inequality, and other conditions like self-distances are zero. In this paper, we introduce the weaker forms of integral type metric spaces, thereby we establish the existence of unique fixed point theorems. As usual, illustrations and counter examples are provided wherever necessary.

Many problems in pure and applied mathematics reduce to a problem of common fixed point of some self-mapping operators which are defined on metric spaces. One of the generalizations of metric spaces is the partial metric space in which self-distance of points need not to be zero but the property of symmetric and modified version of triangle inequality is satisfied. In this paper, some well-known results on common fixed point are investigated and generalized to the class of partial metric spaces.
