Abstract

In this paper we consider complete cone metric spaces. We generalize some definitions such as c-nonexpansive and (c,λ)-uniformly locally contractive functions f-closure, c-isometric in cone metric spaces, and certain fixed point theorems will be proved in those spaces. Among other results, we prove some interesting applications for the fixed point theorems in cone metric spaces.
