Abstract

In this paper,  the concept of fuzzy metric-like spaces is introduced which generalizes  the notion of fuzzy metric spaces given by George and Veeramani \cite{Vee1}. Some fixed point results for fuzzy contractive mappings on fuzzy metric-like spaces are derived. These results generalize several comparable results from the current literature. We also provide illustrative examples in support of our new results where result from current literature are not applicable.
