It is well known that any metric space is paracompact. As a generalization of metric spaces, cone metric spaces play very important role in fixed point theory, computer science, and some other research areas as well as in general topology. In this paper, a theorem which states that any cone metric s

✦ Synopsis
Using an old M. Krein's result and a result concerning symmetric spaces from [S. Radenović, Z. Kadelburg, Quasi-contractions on symmetric and cone symmetric spaces, Banach J. Math. Anal. 5 (1) (2011), 38-50], we show in a very short way that all fixed point results in cone metric spaces obtained recently, in which the assumption that the underlying cone is normal and solid is present, can be reduced to the corresponding results in metric spaces. On the other hand, when we deal with non-normal solid cones, this is not possible. In the recent paper [M.A. Khamsi, Remarks on cone metric spaces and fixed point theorems of contractive mappings, Fixed Point Theory Appl. 2010, 7 pages, Article ID 315398, doi:10.1115/2010/315398] the author claims that most of the cone fixed point results are merely copies of the classical ones and that any extension of known fixed point results to cone metric spaces is redundant; also that underlying Banach space and the associated cone subset are not necessary. In fact, Khamsi's approach includes a small class of results and is very limited since it requires only normal cones, so that all results with non-normal cones (which are proper extensions of the corresponding results for metric spaces) cannot be dealt with by his approach.

In this work we define and study quasi-contraction on a cone metric space. For such a mapping we prove a fixed point theorem. Among other things, we generalize a recent result of H. L. Guang and Z. Xian, and the main result of Ćirić is also recovered.
In this paper we present fixed point theorem for nonlinear quasi-contractive mappings defined on TVS-cone metric space, which generalizes earlier results obtained by Ilić and Rakočević [D.
In this paper, we study the uniqueness and existence of a common fixed point for a pair of mappings in cone metric space. The results extend and improve recent related results.
