A fixed point theorem for generalized contractions involving w-distances on complete quasi-metric spaces

We obtain a fixed point theorem for generalized contractions on complete quasi-metric spaces, which involves w-distances and functions of Meir-Keeler and Jachymski type. Our result generalizes in various directions the celebrated fixed point theorems of Boyd and Wong, and Matkowski. Some illustrative examples are also given.The authors are grateful to the referees for several useful suggestions.
