Abstract We consider six self-maps satisfying the condition of commuting and weak compatibility of mappings
and the purpose of this paper is to give some common fixed points theorems for complete multiplicative metric
space.
Keywords: commuting mapping, complete multiplicative metric spaces, weakly compatible maps and common
fixed points

1. Introduction
The concept of multiplicative metric spaces is
introduced by M. Özavsar [8].They also gave some
topological properties of the relevant multiplicative metric
space and now it’s more general than well-known metric
space. Fixed point theorems are admirable tool for
Existence and uniqueness of the solutions to various
mathematical models like differential, integral and partial
differential equations and vibrational inequalities etc. The
study of metric space plays very important role to many
fields both in pure and applied science [4]. Abounding
researchers extended the notion of a metric space such as
vector valued metric space of Perov [3], a cone metric
spaces of Huang and Zhang [7], a modular metric spaces
of Chistyakov [17], for details about multiplicative metric
space and related concepts, we refer the reader to[8] etc.
It is well know that the set of positive real numbers
ℝ
+
is not complete according to the usual metric. To
overcome this problem, In 2008, Bashirov [2] Introduced
the concept of multiplicative metric spaces as follows:
Definition 1.1. [8] Let X be a nonempty set.
Multiplicative metric is a mapping d: X×X → ℝ
+
satisfying the following conditions
(1.1) d(x, y) ≥ 1 for all x, y ∈ X and d(x, y) = 1 if and
only if x = y,
(1.2) d(x, y) = d(y, x) for all x, y ∈ X,
(1.3) d(x, z) ≤ d(x, y) ∙d(y, z) for all x, y, z ∈ X
(multiplicative triangle inequality)
To articulate the importance of this study, we should
first note that ℝ
+
is a complete multiplicative metric space
with respect to the multiplicative metric. Furthermore, we
introduce concept of multiplicative contraction mapping
and prove some fixed point theorems of multiplicative
contraction mappings on multiplicative metric spaces.
Definition 1.2. [8] (Multiplicative ball) Let (X, d) be a
multiplicative metric space, x ∈ X and ε > 1. We now
define a set B
ε
(x) = {y ∈ X | d(x, y) < ε}, which is called
multiplicative open ball of radius ε with centre x.
Similarly, one can describe multiplicative closed ball as
( ) { }
y X|d Bε(x x, ) . y ε = ∈ ≤
Definition 1.3. [8] (Multiplicative interior point): Let (X,
d) be a multiplicative metric space and A⊂ X. Then we
call x ∈ A a multiplicative interior point of A if there
exists an ε > 1 such that B
ε
(x) ⊂ A. The collection of all
interior points of A is called multiplicative interior of A
and denoted by int(A).
Definition 1.4. [8] (Multiplicative open set): Let (X, d) be
a multiplicative metric space and A⊂ X. If every point of
A is a multiplicative interior point of A, i.e., A = int(A),
then A is called a multiplicative open set.
Definition 1.5. [8] Let (X, d) be a multiplicative metric
space. A point x ∈ X is said to be multiplicative limit
point of S ⊂ X if and only if (B
ε
(x) \ {x}) ∩ S ≠∅ for
every ε > 1. The set of all multiplicative limit points of the
set S is denoted by S ′.
Definition 1.6. [8] Let (X, d) be a multiplicative metric
space. We call a set S ⊂ X multiplicative closed in (X, d)
if S contains all of its multiplicative limit points.
Definition 1.7. [8] (Multiplicative convergence): Let (X, d)
be a multiplicative metric space, {x
n
} be a sequence in X
and x ∈ X. If for every multiplicative open ball B
ε
(x),
there exists a natural number N such that n ≥ N⇒x
n
∈B
ε
(x),
then the sequence {x
n
} is said to be multiplicative
convergent to x, denoted by x
n
→ x (n → ∞).
