This article intends to initiate the study of Pompeiu–Hausdorff distance induced by an M-metric. The Nadler and Kannan type fixed point theorems for set-valued mappings are also established in the said spaces. Moreover, the discussion is supported with the aid of competent examples and a result on homotopy. This approach improves the current state of art in fixed point theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A new proper generalization of metric called as θ -metric is introduced by Khojasteh et al. (Mathematical Problems in Engineering (2013) Article ID 504609). In this paper, first we prove the Caristi type fixed point theorem in an alternative and comparatively new way in the context of θ -metric. We also investigate two θ -metrics on CB (X) (family of nonempty closed and bounded subsets of a set X). Furthermore, using the obtained θ -metrics on CB (X) , we prove two new fixed point results for multi-functions which generalize the results of Nadler and Lim type in the context of such spaces. In order to illustrate the usability of our results, we equipped them with competent examples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The main idea in this article is to establish some fixed and common fixed point results for multivalued H + -type contraction mappings in symmetric spaces. New results are accompanied with illustrative examples. An application of the obtained results to probabilistic spaces is presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
