Abstract
In this paper, we introduce the concept of a quaternion-valued $G$-metric spaces which generalize real-valued $G$-metric spaces, complex-valued $G$-metric spaces, real-valued metric spaces and complex-valued metric spaces known in the literature. Analogous the Banach contraction principle, Kannan's and Chatterjea's fixed point theorem are proved. Our results generalize many known results in fixed point theory.
