Fixed point theorems on orthogonal metric spaces via altering distance functions

Abstract

In 1984, Khan et al. [3] established some fixed point theorems in complete and compact metric spaces by using altering distance functions. In 2017, Gordji et al. [2] described the notion of orthogonal set and orthogonal metric spaces. In their work, they held a generalization of Banach fixed point theorem in this interestingly-defined construction and in addition, applied their acquired results to demonstrate the existence of a solution of an ordinary differential equation. In this paper, some fixed point theorems on orthogonal metric spaces via altering distance functions inspired by [3] and [2] are presented.
