Abstract

Very recently, Hussain and Kanwal (Trans A Razmadze Math Inst 172(3):481–490, 2018) proved some (coupled) fixed point results in this setting for \(\alpha -\psi \)-contractive mappings on the setting of \({\mathcal {F}}\)-metric spaces that was initiated by Jleli and Samet (Fixed Point Theory Appl 2018:128, 2018). In this note, we underline that the proof of Hussain and Kanwal (Trans A Razmadze Math Inst 172(3):481–490, 2018) has a gap. We provide two examples to illustrate our observation. We also correct the proof and improved the result by replacing \(\alpha \)-admissibility by orbital \(\alpha \)-admissibility.
