Abstract

In this paper we introduce the notion of $\psi$-contractions for self maps on S-metric spaces and establish a fixed point theorem for such maps. We also introduce a new subclass of S-metric spaces called KKS metric spaces and prove a fixed point theorem for a $\psi$-contraction on a KKS metric space. An open problem is also given at the end of the paper.
