Later, there are many au- thors who have some detailed discussions and applications of a probabilistic metric space, for example, we may see Schweizer and Sklar [8]. Besides, there are many results about fixed point theorems in a probabilistic metric space with contractive types having ap- peared; we may see the papers [ 1–3, 9– 12]. In this paper, we will prove two common fixed point theorems for four self-mappings and two set-valued mappings with φ-contractive condition in a Menger space, which ´ generalize some results of Dedeic and Sarapa [4, 5], and Sehgal and Bharucha-Reid [9]. A mapping F : R → R+ is said to be a distribution if it is nondecreasing left continuous with inf {F (t) : t ∈ R} = 0 and sup {F (t) : t ∈ R} = 1. We will denote by the set of all distribution functions while G will always denote the specific distribution function defined by ⎧ ⎨ 0, t ≤ 0, G(t) = (1.1) ⎩ 1, t 0. A probabilistic metric space (PM-space) [7] is an ordered pair (X , ) consisting of a nonempty set X and a mapping from X ×X into the collections of all distribution functions on R. For x,y ∈ X , we denote the distributi
