Strong convergence theorems for multi-step Noor iterations with errors in Banach spaces

In this paper, we established two strong convergence theorems for a multi-step Noor iterative scheme with errors for mappings of asymptotically nonexpansive in the intermediate sense(asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive, respectively) in Banach spaces. Our results extend and improve the recent ones announced by Xu and Noor [B.L. Xu, M.A. Noor, Fixed-point iterations for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 267 (2002) 444-453], Cho, Zhou and Guo [Y.J. Cho, H. Zhou, G. Guo, Weak and strong convergence theorems for three-step iterations with errors for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings, Comput. Math. Appl. 47 (2004) 707-717], and many others.     

Demiclosed principle and convergence for modified three step iterative process with errors of non-Lipschitzian mappings

A demiclosed principle is proved for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in the intermediate sense. Moreover, it is proved that the modified three-step iterative sequence converges weakly and strongly to common fixed points of three asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in the intermediate sense under certain conditions. The results of this paper improve and extend the corresponding results of [M.O. Osilike, S.C. Aniagbosor, Weak and strong convergence theorems for fixed points of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings, Math. Comput. Modelling 32 (2000) 1181-1191; G.E. Kim, T.H. Kim, Mann and Ishikawa iterations with errors for non-Lipschitzian mappings in Banach spaces, Comput. Math. Appl. 42 (2001) 1565-1570; B.L. Xu, M.A. Noor, Fixed point iterations for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 267 (2002) 444-453; K. Nammanee, S. Suantai, The modified Noor iterations with errors for non-Lipschitzian mappings in Banach spaces, Appl. Math. Comput. 187 (2007) 669-679; K. Nammanee, M.A. Noor, S. Suantai, Convergence criteria of modified Noor iterations with errors for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 314 (2006) 320-334] and other corresponding known ones. On the other hand, we show the necessary and sufficient condition for the strong convergence of the modified three-step iterative sequence to some common fixed points of .     

Strong convergence theorems by hybrid method for asymptotically -strict pseudo-contractive mapping in Hilbert space

In this paper, we introduce the hybrid method of modified Mann’s iteration for an asymptotically k-strict pseudo-contractive mapping. Then we prove that such a sequence converges strongly to P_F(T)x₀. This main theorem improves the result of Issara Inchan [I. Inchan, Strong convergence theorems of modified Mann iteration methods for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert spaces, Int. J. Math. Anal. 2 (23) (2008) 1135–1145] and concerns the result of Takahashi et al. [W. Takahashi, Y. Takeuchi, R. Kubota, Strong convergence theorems by hybrid methods for families of nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert space, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 341 (2008) 276–286], and many others.     

Iterative approximation of a zero of accretive operator in Banach space

This paper introduces an iteration scheme for viscosity approximation of a zero of accretive operator in a reflexive Banach space with weakly continuous duality mapping. A new iterative sequence is introduced and strong convergence of the algorithm {x_n} is proved. The results improve and extend the results of Su [Xiaolong Qin, Yongfu Su, Approximation of a zero point of accretive operator in Banach spaces, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 320 (2007) 415-424] and some others.     

Convergence criteria of modified Noor iterations with errors for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings

In this paper, weak and strong convergence theorems of the modified Noor iterations with errors are established for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces. The results obtained in this paper extend and improve the several recent results in this area.     

New iterative schemes for asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive nonself-mappings in Banach spaces

In this paper, a new two-step iterative scheme with errors is introduced for two asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive nonself-mappings. Several convergence theorems are established in real Banach spaces and real uniformly convex Banach spaces. Our theorems improve and extend the results due to Thianwan [S. Thianwan, Common fixed point of new iterations for two asymptotically nonexpansive nonself-mappings in a Banach space, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 224 (2009) 685-695] and many other papers.     

Common fixed point results for two new classes of hybrid pairs in symmetric spaces

Some common fixed point theorems due to Abbas and Khan [M. Abbas, A.R. Khan, Common fixed points of generalized contractive hybrid pairs in symmetric spaces, Fixed Point Theor. Appl. 2009 (2009) 11, Article ID 869407, doi:10.1155/2009/869407], and Abbas and Rhoades [M. Abbas, B.E. Rhoades, Common fixed point theorems for hybrid pairs of occasionally weakly compatible mappings defined on symmetric spaces, Pan. Amer. Math. J. 18 (1) (2008) 55-62] are proved for two new classes of hybrid pair of mappings which contain occasionally weakly compatible hybrid pairs as a proper subclass. Consequently, some results proved by Hussain et al. [N. Hussain, M.A. Khamsi, A. Latif, Common fixed points for JH-operators and occasionally weakly biased pairs under relaxed conditions, Nonlinear Anal. 74 (2011) 2133-2140], Bhatt et al. [A. Bhatt, et al., Common fixed point theorems for occasionally weakly compatible mappings under relaxed conditions, Nonlinear Anal. 73 (2010) 176-182] and many others are extended to hybrid pair of mappings. Examples are also presented to support the concepts defined in the paper.

A reconsideration on convergence of three-step iterations for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings

We illustrate that the control conditions of the main convergence theorems of Yao and Noor [Convergence of three-step iterations for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings, Appl. Math. Comput. in press] are incorrect. We also provide new control conditions which are complementary to Nilsrakoo and Saejung’s results [W. Nilsrakoo, S. Saejung, A new three-step fixed point iteration scheme for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings, Appl. Math. Comput. 181 (2006) 1026–1034].     

Convergence theorems of fixed points for asymptotically hemi-pseudocontractive mappings

In this paper, the concept of asymptotically hemi-pseudocontractive mapping in Banach space, which is a proper generalization of asymptotically pseudocontractive mapping with nonempty fixed point set as shown by an example, is introduced. Some sufficient and necessary conditions on the strong convergence of the modified Ishikawa and the modified Mann iteration sequences with mean errors for uniformly L-Lipshitzian asymptotically hemi-pseudocontractive mappings are presented.     

Convergence theorems for equilibrium problem, variational inequality problem and countably infinite relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings

In this paper, we introduce an iterative process which converges strongly to a common element of set of common fixed points of countably infinite family of closed relatively quasi- nonexpansive mappings, the solution set of generalized equilibrium problem and the solution set of the variational inequality problem for a γ-inverse strongly monotone mapping in Banach spaces. Our theorems improve, generalize, unify and extend several results recently announced.     

On operator valued sequences of multipliers and R-boundedness

In recent papers (cf. [J.L. Arregui, O. Blasco, (p,q)-Summing sequences, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 274 (2002) 812-827; J.L. Arregui, O. Blasco, (p,q)-Summing sequences of operators, Quaest. Math. 26 (2003) 441-452; S. Aywa, J.H. Fourie, On summing multipliers and applications, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 253 (2001) 166-186; J.H. Fourie, I. Röntgen, Banach space sequences and projective tensor products, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 277 (2) (2003) 629-644]) the concept of (p,q)-summing multiplier was considered in both general and special context. It has been shown that some geometric properties of Banach spaces and some classical theorems can be described using spaces of (p,q)-summing multipliers. The present paper is a continuation of this study, whereby multiplier spaces for some classical Banach spaces are considered. The scope of this research is also broadened, by studying other classes of summing multipliers. Let E(X) and F(Y) be two Banach spaces whose elements are sequences of vectors in X and Y, respectively, and which contain the spaces c₀₀(X) and c₀₀(Y) of all X-valued and Y-valued sequences which are eventually zero, respectively. Generally spoken, a sequence of bounded linear operators (un)⊂L(X,Y) is called a multiplier sequence from E(X) to F(Y) if the linear operator from c₀₀(X) into c₀₀(Y) which maps (xi)∈c₀₀(X) onto (unxn)∈c₀₀(Y) is bounded with respect to the norms on E(X) and F(Y), respectively. Several cases where E(X) and F(Y) are different (classical) spaces of sequences, including, for instance, the spaces Rad(X) of almost unconditionally summable sequences in X, are considered. Several examples, properties and relations among spaces of summing multipliers are discussed. Important concepts like R-bounded, semi-R-bounded and weak-R-bounded from recent papers are also considered in this context.     

Modified block iterative algorithm for Quasi-?-asymptotically nonexpansive mappings and equilibrium problem in banach spaces

The purpose of this paper is to propose a modified block iterative algorithm for find a common element of the set of common fixed points of an infinite family of quasi-?-asymptotically nonexpansive mappings and the set of an equilibrium problem. Under suitable conditions, some strong convergence theorems are established in a uniformly smooth and strictly convex Banach space with the Kadec-Klee property. As an application, at the end of the paper a numerical example is given. The results presented in the paper improve and extend the corresponding results in Qin et al. [Convergence theorems of common elements for equilibrium problems and fixed point problem in Banach spaces, J. Comput. Appl. Math., 225, 2009, 20-30], Zhou et al. [Convergence theorems of a modified hybrid algorithm for a family of quasi-?-asymptotically nonexpansive mappings, J. Appl. Math.

Equivalence theorems of the convergence between Ishikawa and Mann iterations with errors for generalized strongly successively Φ-pseudocontractive mappings without Lipschitzian assumptions

In this paper, the equivalence of the strong convergence between the modified Mann and Ishikawa iterations with errors in two different schemes by Xu [Y.G. Xu, Ishikawa and Mann iteration process with errors for nonlinear strongly accretive operator equations, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 224 (1998) 91-101] and Liu [L.S. Liu, Ishikawa and Mann iterative process with errors for nonlinear strongly accretive mappings in Banach spaces, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 194 (1995) 114-125] respectively is proven for the generalized strongly successively Φ-pseudocontractive mappings without Lipschitzian assumption. Our results generalize the recent results of the papers [Zhenyu Huang, F. Bu, The equivalence between the convergence of Ishikawa and Mann iterations with errors for strongly successively pseudocontractive mappings without Lipschitzian assumption, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 325 (1) (2007) 586-594; B.E. Rhoades, S.M. Soltuz, The equivalence between the convergences of Ishikawa and Mann iterations for an asymptotically nonexpansive in the intermediate sense and strongly successively pseudocontractive maps, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 289 (2004) 266-278; B.E. Rhoades, S.M. Soltuz, The equivalence between Mann-Ishikawa iterations and multi-step iteration, Nonlinear Anal. 58 (2004) 219-228] by extending to the most general class of the generalized strongly successively Φ-pseudocontractive mappings and hence improve the corresponding results of all the references given in this paper by providing the equivalence of convergence between all of these iteration schemes for any initial points u₁, x₁ in uniformly smooth Banach spaces.     

Lim's theorems for multivalued mappings in CAT(0) spaces

Let X be a complete CAT(0) space. We prove that, if E is a nonempty bounded closed convex subset of X and a nonexpansive mapping satisfying the weakly inward condition, i.e., there exists p∈E such that ∀x∈E, ∀α∈[0,1], then T has a fixed point. In Banach spaces, this is a result of Lim [On asymptotic centers and fixed points of nonexpansive mappings, Canad. J. Math. 32 (1980) 421-430]. The related result for unbounded R-trees is given.     

Convergence of iterates with errors of asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive mappings and applications

In this paper, we consider a generalized iterative process with errors to approximate the common fixed points of two asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive mappings. A convergence theorem has been obtained which generalizes a known result. This theorem has then been used to prove another convergence theorem which, in turn, generalizes a number of results.     

Letter to the Editor: A note on the preconditioned Gauss-Seidel (GS) method for linear systems

Wen Li (J. Comput. Appl. Math., 182 (2005) 81-90) asserted that there are some errors in article by Hiroshi Niki, Kyouji Harada, Munenori Morimoto and Michio Sakakihara (J. Comput. Appl. Math., 164-165 (2004) 587-600). And Li presented a new proof for the corresponding results in H. Niki et al. In this paper, we point out some errors in Li’s assertion. Moreover, we show that a new proof presented by Li is imperfect.

Approximation theorems for total quasi-?-asymptotically nonexpansive mappings with applications

The purpose of this article is to prove some approximation theorems of common fixed points for countable families of total quasi-?-asymptotically nonexpansive mappings which contain several kinds of mappings as its special cases in Banach spaces. In order to get the approximation theorems, the hybrid algorithms are presented and are used to approximate the common fixed points. Using this result, we also discuss the problem of strong convergence concerning the maximal monotone operators in a Banach space. The results of this article extend and improve the results of Matsushita and Takahashi [S. Matsushita, W.
