Thereby, we prove pertinent fixed point theorems in an extended b-metric space (simply E b - metric space). Moreover, we present the characterization of the Hardy and Rogers mapping theorem for (a pair of) non-self maps, which gives a positive answer to the question raised by C. Boateng Ampadu [12] (Fixed Point Theory, 19(2018), No. 2, 449-452 DOI: 10.24193/fpt-ro.2018.2.35). Keywords : Extended b-metric space, an extended cyclic Banach contraction, ex- tended cyclic orbital F -expanding contraction, proximal cyclic Hardy and Rogers type mapping. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification : 47H10, 54H25.
