Abstract

We present two versions of the well-known Banach contraction principle: one in the context of extended metric spaces for which the distance mapping is allowed to be infinite, the other in the context of metric spaces endowed with a compatible binary relation. We also point out that these two results and the Banach contraction principle are actually equivalent.
