Abstract
In this paper, we present some coincidence point results in the framework of quasi-metric spaces using contractive conditions involving simulation functions. As consequences, we are able to particularize these results to a variety of situations including G-metric spaces. The results presented in this paper generalize and extend several comparable results in the existing literature. In addition, some examples are given.
