The aim of this paper is to provide a new framework for the study of measures of noncompactness in generalized metric spaces. Firstly, we introduce the notion of w-measure of noncompactness on metric spaces with a w-distance and extend the diameter and Kuratowski functionals to this setting. At the end we give a characterization of metric completeness via our main results, providing a new answer to the open question mentioned by Arandjelović in his PhD thesis [2].

The study of metrization has led to the development of a number of new topological spaces, called generalized metric spaces, within the past fifteen years. For a survey of results in metrization theory involving many of these spaces, the reader is referred to [13]. Quite a few of these generalized metric spaces have been studied extensively, somewhat independently of their role in metrization theorems. Specifically, we refer here to characterizations of these spaces by various workers as images of metric spaces. Results in this area have been obtained by Alexander [2], Arhangel'skii [3], Burke [5], Heath [10], Michael [15], Nagata [16], and the author [1], to mention a few. Later we will recall specifically some of these results.

AbstractIn this paper, introducing a contraction principle on generalized metric spaces, a generalization of Banach’s fixed point theorem is obtained under the completeness condition of the space. Moreover, it is established that, using such contraction principle, completeness of the generalized metric space can be characterized.

Fixed point theorems for mappings satisfying Geraghty-type contractive conditions are proved in the frame of partial metric spaces, ordered partial metric spaces, and metric-type spaces. Examples are given showing that these results are proper extensions of the existing ones.

This paper discusses the properties of convergence of sequences to limit cycles defined by best proximity points of adjacent subsets for two kinds of weak contractive cyclic maps defined by composite maps built with decreasing functions with either the so-calledr-weaker Meir-Keeler orr,r0-stronger Meir-Keeler functions in generalized metric spaces. Particular results about existence and uniqueness of fixed points are obtained for the case when the sets of the cyclic disposal have a nonempty intersection. Illustrative examples are discussed.
