Abstract
Common fixed point results are presented for generalized (
ψ
,
φ) - weak contractive mappings with constants in complete metric spaces. Our results extend previous results of Chugh (2014), Đorić (2009), Zhang and Song (2009), as well as of Kikkawa and Suzuki (2008), Rhoades (2001), Nadler (1969) and others.

Introduction
Let (X, d) be a complete metric space and T be a self map
on X. Then T is called a contraction if there exists r∈ [0, 1) such that
d(Tx, Ty) ≤ r d(x, y) for all x, y ∈ X.
We know that if X is complete, then every contraction has
a fixed point (Banach contraction mapping principle).
The following general common fixed point theorem is due to Sastry and Naidu [18].
Theorem 1.1. Let X be a complete metric space and S, T: X → X. Assume there exists r ∈ [0, 1) such that for every x, y ∈ X,

(1.1.) Then S and T have a unique common fixed point.
Very recently, Suzuki [22] introduced a weaker
notation of contraction and obtained the following
theorem, which is a new type of generalizations of the
classical Banach contraction principle.

Let X be a complete metric space and let T: X → X.
Assume there exists r ∈[0, 1) such that for each x, y ∈ X, θ(r) d(x, Tx) ≤ d(x, y) implies d(Tx, Ty) ≤ r d(x, y).
This type of generalization of contraction
mapping has been a very active field of research during
last five years. Suzuki contractive condition has been dealt
with in a number of papers [4], [5], [7], [9-15] and [19-23].
A mapping T: X → X is said to be φ – weak contractive if
there exists a map φ: [0, +∞) → [0, +∞) with φ(0) = 0 and
φ(t) > 0 for all t > 0 such that
d(Tx, Ty) ≤ d(x, y) − φ(d(x, y)) for all x, y ∈ X .
The concept of φ−weak contractive mappings was defined
by Daffer and Kaneko [3] in 1995.
Rhoades [16] proved the following fixed point
theorem for φ – weak contractive single-valued map
generalizing the Banach contraction principle.
Theorem 1.3. Let (X, d) be a complete metric space and let T: X → X be a map such that
d(Tx, Ty) ≤ d(x, y) − φ(d(x, y)), for all x, y ∈ X ,
where φ: [0, +∞) → [0, +∞) is a continuous and
non-decreasing function with φ(0) = 0 and φ(t) > 0 for all t > 0.
Then T has a unique fixed point.
Also, two maps S, T: X → X are called generalized φ –
weak contraction if there exists a map
φ: [0, +∞) → [0, +∞) with φ(0) = 0 and φ(t) > 0 for all t > 0 such that
d(Sx, Ty) ≤ M(x, y) − φ(M(x, y)),
for all x, y ∈ X, where
M(x,y) =max

In 2014, Chugh [2] proved the following result.
Theorem 1.4. Let (X, d) be a complete metric space and let S, T : X → X. Assume that there exists r ∈ [0, 1) such
that for every x, y ∈ X,
min{d(x, Sx), d(y, Ty)} ≤ (1+ r) d(x, y)
implies
d(Sx, Ty) ≤ d(x, y) − φ d(x, y),
Then there exists z ∈ X such that z ∈ Sz ∩Tz.
In 2009, Zhang and Song [24] proved the
following theorem for generalized φ- weak contraction
(see also [17]) which is defined for two mappings and gave
conditions for the existence of a common fixed point.
Theorem 1.5. Let (X, d) be a complete metric space and let S, T: X → X be two mappings such that for all x, y ∈ X
d(Sx, Ty) ≤ M(x, y) − φ(M(x, y)),
where
φ: [0, +∞) → [0, +∞) is lower semi-continuous function with φ(t) = 0 if and only if t = 0.
Then there exists the unique point z∈ X such that z = Tz =
Sz.
Dutta and Choudhary [8] gave the following
theorem by introducing a new generalization of contraction
principle.
Theorem 1.6. Let (X, d) be a complete metric space and let T: X → X be a map satisfying the inequality
ψ
d(Tx, Ty) ≤ψ
d(x, y) − φ(d(x, y)),where
ψ
, φ: [0, +∞) → [0, +∞) are both continuous andmonotone non-decreasing functions with φ(t) =
ψ
(t) = 0 ifand only if t = 0. Then T has a unique fixed point.
Đorić [6] used generalized (
ψ
,
φ) weak contraction whichis defined for two maps and gave conditions for the
existence of a common fixed point as follows.
Theorem 1.7. Let (X, d) be a complete metric space and Let S, T: X → X be two selfmaps such that for all x, y ∈ X
ψ
d(Sx, Ty) ≤ψ
(M(x, y)) − φ(M(x, y)),where
(i)
ψ
: [0, +∞) → [0, +∞) is continuous and monotone(ii) φ: [0, +∞) → [0, +∞) is lower semi-continuous function with φ(t) = 0 if and only if t = 0.
Then there exists the unique point z∈ X such that
z = Tz = Sz.
In this paper, we established a common fixed point
theorem which is generalization of Theorem 1.7. The idea
is in line with Theorem 1.3 where a generalization of
Theorem 1.1 has been established by use of Suzuki
contractive condition.
2. Main Results
In this paper, the following theorem is our main result.
Theorem 2.1. Let (X, d) be a complete metric space and let S and T be maps on X. Assume that for each x, y ∈ X,

min{d(x, Sx), d(y, Ty)} ≤ d(x, y) implies
ψ
(d(Sx, Ty))≤ψ
(M(x, y)) − φ(M(x, y)),(2.1)
where
ψ
and φ are defined as above. Then S and T have acommon fixed point.

Similarly if n is even, we obtain

Therefore, for all n ≥ 0,
d x

(r) ≤ψ
(r) - φ(r),i.e. φ(r) ≤ 0.
Then φ(r) = 0 by the property of function φ, and furthermore by property of function φ
φ(r) = 0 implies r = 0.

The following examples show the generality of
our results.
Example 2.1 Let X = {(0, 0), (0, 4), (4, 0), (0, 5), (5, 0), (4, 5), (5, 4)} be endowed with the metric d defined by

Then S and T do not satisfy the condition (1.1) of Theorem
verified that all the hypotheses of Theorem 2.1 are satisfied

.Corollary 2.1. Let (X, d) be a complete metric space and let S and T be maps on X. Assume that for each x, y ∈ X,
1
2
min{d(x, Sx), d(y, Ty)} ≤ d(x, y)implies
d(Sx, Ty) ≤M(x, y) − φ (M(x, y)),
where φ is defined as above. Then S and T have a common
fixed point.
Proof: It comes from Theorem 2.1 by taking
ψ
an identitymap.
Corollary 2.2. Let (X, d) be a complete metric space and let T be a map on X. Assume that for each x, y ∈ X,
1
2
d(x, Tx)} ≤ d(x, y) implies
ψ
(d(Tx, Ty)) ≤ψ
(M(x, y)) − φ (M(x,y)),
where
ψ
and φ are defined as above. Then T has a uniquefixed point.
Proof: It comes from Theorem 2.1 by taking S = T.
