Monotone CQ iteration processes for nonexpansive semigroups and maximal monotone operators

Nakajo and Takahashi [K. Nakajo, W. Takahashi, Strong convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings and nonexpansive semigroups, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 279 (2003) 372–379] proved strong convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings, nonexpansive semigroups and the proximal point algorithm for zero-point of monotone operators in Hilbert spaces by the CQ iteration method. The purpose of this paper is to modify the CQ iteration method of K. Nakajo and W. Takahashi using the monotone CQ method, and to prove strong convergence theorems. In the proof process of this article, the Cauchy sequence method is used, so we proceed without use of the demiclosedness principle and Opial’s condition, and other weak topological techniques.     

Strong convergence theorems for strongly nonexpansive sequences

The aim of this paper is to prove a strong convergence theorem for a pair of sequences of nonexpansive mappings in a Hilbert space, where one of them is a strongly nonexpansive sequence, and provide some applications of the theorem.     

On asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in hyperconvex metric spaces

Since bounded hyperconvex metric spaces have the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings, it is natural to extend such a powerful result to asymptotically nonexpansive mappings. Our main result states that the approximate fixed point property holds in this case. The proof is based on the use, for the first time, of the ultrapower of a metric space.

     

Hybrid Mann-Halpern iteration methods for nonexpansive mappings and semigroups

In this paper, we introduce some new iteration methods based on the hybrid method in mathematical programming, the Mann’s iterative method and the Halpern’s method for finding a fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping and a common fixed point of a nonexpansive semigroup Hilbert spaces.     

Three-step iterations for variational inequalities and nonexpansive mappings

In this paper, we introduce a new three-step iterative scheme for finding the common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of the variational inequality using the technique of updating the solution. We show that the sequence converges strongly to a common element of two sets under some control conditions. Results proved in this paper may be viewed as an improvement and refinement of the recent results of Noor and Huang [M. Aslam Noor, Z. Huang, Three-step methods for nonexpansive mappings and variational inequalities, Appl. Math. Comput., in press] and Yao and Yao [Y. Yao, J.C. Yao, On modified iterative method for nonexpansive mappings and monotone mappings, Appl. Math. Comput., in press].     

Ruelle operator with nonexpansive IFS on the line

Ruelle operator defined by weakly contractive iterated function systems (IFS) satisfying the open set condition was discussed in the paper [K.S. Lau, Y.L. Ye, Ruelle operator with nonexpansive IFS, Studia Math. 148 (2001) 143-169]. There, one of our theorems gave a sufficient condition for the possession of the Perron-Frobenius property. In this paper we consider Ruelle operator defined by nonexpansive IFS on the line instead of by weakly contractive one. And we prove, under the same condition, that the newly defined Ruelle operator has the Perron-Frobenius property. It extends the Ruelle-Perron-Frobenius theorem partially to the nonexpansive IFS.     

Strong convergence theorems by hybrid methods for families of nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert spaces

In this paper, we prove a strong convergence theorem by the hybrid method for a family of nonexpansive mappings which generalizes Nakajo and Takahashi's theorems [K. Nakajo, W. Takahashi, Strong convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings and nonexpansive semigroups, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 279 (2003) 372-379], simultaneously. Furthermore, we obtain another strong convergence theorem for the family of nonexpansive mappings by a hybrid method which is different from Nakajo and Takahashi. Using this theorem, we get some new results for a single nonexpansive mapping or a family of nonexpansive mappings in a Hilbert space.     

How to recognize nonexpansive mappings and isometric mappings

In two real Banach spaces, we shall present two conditions, under one of which each nonexpansive mapping must be an isometry.     

Fixed point theory for a class of generalized nonexpansive mappings

In this paper we introduce two new classes of generalized nonexpansive mapping and we study both the existence of fixed points and their asymptotic behavior.     

Convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings and feasibility problems

In this paper, we introduce an iteration scheme given by finite nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces and then prove weak convergence theorems which are connected with the problem of image recovery. Using the results, we consider the problem of finding a common fixed point of finite nonexpansive mappings.     

Common fixed points of a nonexpansive semigroup and a convergence theorem for Mann iterations in geodesic metric spaces

First, we consider a strongly continuous semigroup of nonexpansive mappings defined on a closed convex subset of a complete CAT(0) space and prove a convergence of a Mann iteration to a common fixed point of the mappings. This result is motivated by a result of Kirk (2002) and of Suzuki (2002). Second, we obtain a result on limits of subsequences of Mann iterations of multivalued nonexpansive mappings on metric spaces of hyperbolic type, which leads to a convergence theorem for nonexpansive mappings on these spaces.     

Viscosity approximation methods for a finite family of nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces

By using viscosity approximation methods for a finite family of nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces, some sufficient and necessary conditions for the iterative sequence to converging to a common fixed point are obtained.

Fixed point properties for nonexpansive representations of topological semigroups

In this paper, we study a fixed point and a nonlinear ergodic properties for an amenable semigroup of nonexpansive mappings on a nonempty subset of a Hilbert space.     

Convergence of Krasnoselskii-Mann iterations of nonexpansive operators

In this paper, we show that a generic nonexpansive operator on a closed and convex, but not necessarily bounded, subset of a hyperbolic space has a unique fixed point which attracts the Krasnoselskii-Mann iterations of this operator.     

A strong convergence theorem for relatively nonexpansive mappings in a Banach space

In this paper, we prove a strong convergence theorem for relatively nonexpansive mappings in a Banach space by using the hybrid method in mathematical programming. Using this result, we also discuss the problem of strong convergence concerning nonexpansive mappings in a Hilbert space and maximal monotone operators in a Banach space.     

Characterizations of common fixed points of one-parameter nonexpansive semigroups, and convergence theorems to common fixed points

Some results on generalized equilibrium problems involving a family of nonexpansive mappings

In this paper, we introduce an iterative method for finding a common element in the solution set of generalized equilibrium problems, in the solution set of variational inequalities and in the common fixed point set of a family of nonexpansive mappings. Strong convergence theorems are established in the framework of Hilbert spaces.     

Strong convergence of iterative sequences for nonexpansive mappings

An iterative algorithm is proposed for finding a fixed point of a nonexpansive self-mapping of a closed convex subset of a Banach space with a uniformly Gâteaux differentiable norm, and an estimate of the convergence speed also is given.     

Strong convergence theorems by hybrid methods for a finite family of nonexpansive mappings and inverse-strongly monotone mappings

In this paper, we introduce and study an iterative scheme by a hybrid method for finding a common element of the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem, the set of common fixed points of a finite family of nonexpansive mappings and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for an inverse-strongly-monotone mapping in a real Hilbert space. Then, we prove that the iterative sequence converges strongly to a common element of the three sets. Using this result, we consider the problem of finding a common fixed point of a finite family of nonexpansive mappings and a strictly pseudocontractive mapping and the problem of finding a common element of the set of common fixed points of a finite family of nonexpansive mappings and the set of zeros of an inverse-strongly monotone mapping. The results obtained in this paper extend and improve the several recent results in this area.
