Abstract: Schweizer, Sklar and Thorp proved in 1960 that a Menger space $(G,D,T)$ under a continuous $t$-norm $T$, induce a natural topology $au$ wich is metrizable. We extend this result to any probabilistic metric space $(G,D,star)$ provided that the triangle function $star$ is continuous. We prove in this case, that the topological space $(G,au)$ is uniformly homeomorphic to a (deterministic) metric space $(G,sigm{a}_D)$ for some canonical metric $sigm{a}_D$ on $G$. As applications, we extend the fixed point theorem of Hicks to probabilistic metric spaces which are not necessarily Menger spaces and we prove a probabilistic Arzela-Ascoli type theorem.
