Double controlled metric type spaces and some fixed point results (Q2337284)

Summary: In this article, in the sequel of extending \(b\)-metric spaces, we modify controlled metric type spaces via two control functions \(\alpha(x, y)\) and \(\mu(x, y)\) on the right-hand side of the \(b\)-triangle inequality, that is, \[ d (x, y) \leq \alpha(x, z) d(x, z) + \mu(z, y) d(z, y),\text{ for all } x, y, z \in X. \] 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 \(\phi\)-nonlinear type contractions in the setting of double controlled metric type spaces.
