I. INTRODUCTION
In this paper
X,d denotes a metric space, and A, B, S and T self-maps on X.Definition 1:A and S are compatible [1] if
ASx ,SAx

whenever

It is known that Definition 1 and Definition 2 are equivalent if both S and A are continuous, but are independent of each other in general. Individual conditions in (3) define the following two weaker forms of Definition 2, as given in [3].

(a) one of A, B, S and T is continuous, and
(b)
A,S and
B,T are either A- compatible or S-compatible. Then A, B, S and T will have a unique common fixed point.In this paper we obtain a generalization of Theorem 1 by relaxing the completeness of X,
weakening the inequality (5),
dropping the continuity condition (a), and weakening the notion of A and S compatibilities.
II. MAIN RESULT
Definition 4 (cf. [2]): Self-maps A and S are weakly compatible if they commute at their coincidence point.
Remark 1: It is easily seen that Definition 1 and Definitions 3(a)-3(b) imply Definition 4. That is weak compatibility is a weaker than compatibility, A and S-compatibilities.
Theorem 2. Let A, B, S and T be self-maps on X satisfying the inclusions (4) and the inequality

(c) T(X)S(X) is a complete subspace of X, and

A,S and

. In view of (17) then it follows that z is a common fixed point of self-maps A, B, S and T.Uniqueness of the common fixed point follows easily from the inequality (7).
Remark 2. The completeness of the space X is restricted to that of its subspace, namely T(X)S(X) (cf. Condition (c) of Theorem 2). Condition (b) imples (d) in view of Remark 1. Further the inequality (5) implies (7) with the choice
f e c 2 b a
q . It is important to note that the continuity of none of the four maps is needed to obtain a fixed point. Thus Theorem 2 is a generalization of Theorem 1.
