A Characterization of Quasi-Metric Completeness in Terms of alpha-psi-Mappings Having Fixed Points

[EN] We obtain a characterization of Hausdorff left K-complete quasi-metric spaces by means of alpha-psi-contractive mappings, from which we deduce the somewhat surprising fact that one the main fixed point theorems of Samet, Vetro, and Vetro (see "Fixed point theorems for alpha-psi-contrac...

Sumario:[EN] We obtain a characterization of Hausdorff left K-complete quasi-metric spaces by means of alpha-psi-contractive mappings, from which we deduce the somewhat surprising fact that one the main fixed point theorems of Samet, Vetro, and Vetro (see "Fixed point theorems for alpha-psi-contractive type mappings", Nonlinear Anal. 2012, 75, 2154-2165), characterizes the metric completeness.
