An Atsuji space is a metric space X such that each continuous function form X to an arbitrary metric space Y is uniformly continuous. We here present (i) characterizations of metric spaces with Atsuji completions; (ii) Cantor-type theorems for Atsuji spaces; (iii) a fixed point theorem for self-maps of an Atsuji space.
