Here, the concept of continuous s-point space is introduced in b-metric spaces. Under suitable assumptions, these spaces are absolute retracts and a generalization of the continuous midpoint spaces. Moreover, an important fixed point theorem is proved for nonexpansive mappings in continuous s-point spaces.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
