Moreover, some fixed point theorems for generalized contractions in cone rectangular metric spaces are pro- vided. The results of this paper can be considered as the improvment and extension of [W.S. Du, A note on cone metric fixed point theory and its equivalence, Nonlin- ear Analysis, 72 (5) (2010), 2259-2261], [P. Ghosh, A. Deb Ray, A charactrization of completeness of generalized metric spaces using generalized Banach contraction principle, Demonstratio mathematica 45 (3) (2012) 717-724].
