Abstract: Abstract We only briefly discuss this topic because metric fixed point theory in these spaces has been discussed extensively elsewhere (see, e.g., [72] or [107, Chapter 4 ]). However, since some of the spaces we discuss below are hyperconvex (in particular the so-called ℝ $$\mathbb{R}$$ -trees) we touch on a few of the relevant properties of these spaces.
