Moreover, we assert that every separable $\\mathcal{F}$-metric space is second countable. Additionally, we acquire some interesting fixed point results concerning altering distance functions for contractive-type mappings and Kannan-type contractive mappings in this exciting context. However, most of the findings are well-furnished by several non-trivial numerical examples. Finally, we raise an open problem regarding the metrizability of such kind of spaces.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-06-15T10:27:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "47H10", "54H25" ], "keywords": [ "metric space", "topological developments", "fixed point results concerning", "point results concerning altering distance", "results concerning altering distance functions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
