Abstract
We establish results of existence and uniqueness of common fixed point and point of coincidence for two self mappings defined both in a metric space and in a partial metric space. Further, we show that such points are zeros of a given function. Finally, we stress that from our main result it is possible to deduce several well-known results in the literature.
