Abstract

The book is devoted to various aspects of fixed point theory in metric spaces and their generalizations. Fixed points for contractions, a topic treated in many places, is omitted from this presentation. The book is divided into three parts: I. Metric spaces, II. Length spaces and geodesic spaces, and III. Beyond metric spaces.
