Abstract

In this paper, we deal with the notion of fuzzy metric space ( X , M , ∗ ) , or simply X , due to George and Veeramani. It is well known that such fuzzy metric spaces, in general, are not completable and also that there exist p -Cauchy sequences which are not Cauchy. We prove that if every p -Cauchy sequence in X is Cauchy, then X is principal, and we observe that the converse is false, in general. Hence, we introduce and study a stronger concept than principal, called strongly principal. Moreover, X is called weak p -complete if every p -Cauchy sequence is p -convergent. We prove that if X is strongly principal (or weak p -complete principal), then the family of p -Cauchy sequences agrees with the family of Cauchy sequences. Among other results related to completeness, we prove that every strongly principal fuzzy metric space where M is strong with respect to an integral (positive) t -norm ∗ admits completion.
