Suzuki-type fixed point results in b-metric spaces

Abstract An ingenious approach to generalize Banach contraction principle was adopted by Suzuki in his seminal papers (Proc Am Math Soc 136:1861–1869, 2008, Nonlinear Anal Theory Methods Appl 71:5313–5317, 2009). In this paper we prove certain common fixed point results for generalized Suzuki contractions in the set-up of b-metric spaces, where the b-metric function is not necessarily continuous. Finally, some examples are presented to verify the effectiveness and applicability of our main results.
