Abstract
In this paper, we compare relation between n-tuple fixed point results and fixed point theorems in abstract metric spaces and metric-like spaces. Actually, we show that the results of n-tuple fixed point can be obtained from fixed point theorems and conversely. Thus, some recent results about both fixed points and n-tuple fixed points are equivalent against the claims of some authors.
