Nadler and Kannan Type Set Valued Mappings in M-Metric Spaces and an Application.

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]
