Viscosity approximation to common fixed points of families of nonexpansive mappings with generalized contractions mappings

Let X$X$ be a reflexive and smooth real Banach space which has a weakly sequentially continuous duality mapping. In this paper, we consider the following viscosity approximation scheme _xn+1=_λn+1f(_xn)+(1−_λn+1)_Tn+1xn$x_{n+1}={\lambda }_{n+1}f\left(x_n\right)+(1-{\lambda }_{n+1})T_{n+1}{x}_n$ (where f$f$ is a generalized contraction mapping) for infinitely many nonexpansive self-mappings _T1,_T2,_T3,…$T_1,T_2,T_3,\dots$ in X$X$. We establish a strong convergence result which generalizes some results in the literature.     

Viscosity approximation methods for nonexpansive mappings and monotone mappings

Viscosity approximation methods for nonexpansive mappings are studied. Consider the iteration process {xn}, where x₀∈C is arbitrary and xn+1=αnf(xn)+(1−αn)SPC(xn−λnAxn), f is a contraction on C, S is a nonexpansive self-mapping of a closed convex subset C of a Hilbert space H. It is shown that {xn} converges strongly to a common element of the set of fixed points of nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for an inverse strongly-monotone mapping which solves some variational inequality.     

Viscosity approximation methods for generalized equilibrium problems and fixed point problems

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the problem of finding a common element of the set of solutions of a generalized equilibrium problem (for short, GEP) and the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping in the setting of Hilbert spaces. By using well-known Fan-KKM lemma, we derive the existence and uniqueness of a solution of the auxiliary problem for GEP. On account of this result and Nadler’s theorem, we propose an iterative scheme by the viscosity approximation method for finding a common element of the set of solutions of GEP and the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping. Furthermore, it is proven that the sequences generated by this iterative scheme converge strongly to a common element of the set of solutions of GEP and the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping.     

Approximation methods for common fixed points for a countable family of nonexpansive mappings

Let E=L_p or l_p space, 1<p<∞. Let K be a closed, convex and nonempty subset of E. Let be a family of nonexpansive self-mappings of K. For arbitrary fixed δ∈(0,1), define a family of nonexpansive maps by S_i?(1−δ)I+δT_i where I is the identity map of K. Let . It is proved that the iterative sequence {x_n} defined by: x₀∈K,x_n+1=α_nu+∑_i≥1σ_i,tnS_ix_n,n≥0 converges strongly to a common fixed point of the family where {α_n} and {σ_i,tn} are sequences in (0,1) satisfying appropriate conditions, in each of the following cases: (a) E=l_p,1<p<∞, and (b) E=L_p,1<p<∞ and at least one of the maps T_i’s is demicompact. Our theorems extend the results of [P. Maingé, Approximation methods for common fixed points of nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert space, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 325 (2007) 469-479] from Hilbert spaces to l_p spaces, 1<p<∞.     

The common minimal-norm fixed point of a finite family of nonexpansive mappings

Consider a finite family of nonexpansive mappings which are defined on a closed convex subset of a Hilbert space H. Suppose the set of common fixed points of this family is nonempty. We then address the problem of finding the minimum-norm element of this common fixed point set. We introduce both cyclic and parallel iteration methods to find this minimal-norm element.

Viscosity methods for common solutions for equilibrium and hierarchical fixed point problems

Implicit and explicit viscosity methods for finding common solutions of equilibrium and hierarchical fixed points are presented. These methods are used to solve systems of equilibrium problems and variational inequalities where the involving operators are complements of nonexpansive mappings.

Viscosity approximation methods for generalized equilibrium problems and fixed point problems with applications

In this paper, we introduce a general iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of common solutions of generalized equilibrium problems, the set of common fixed points of a family of infinite non-expansive mappings. Strong convergence theorems are established in a real Hilbert space under suitable conditions. As some applications, we consider convex feasibility problems and equilibrium problems. The results presented improve and extend the corresponding results of many others.     

Viscosity approximation methods for equilibrium problems and fixed point problems in Hilbert spaces

In this paper, we introduce an iterative scheme by the viscosity approximation method for finding a common element of the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem and the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping in a Hilbert space. Then, we prove a strong convergence theorem which is connected with Combettes and Hirstoaga's result [P.L. Combettes, S.A. Hirstoaga, Equilibrium programming in Hilbert spaces, J. Nonlinear Convex Anal. 6 (2005) 117-136] and Wittmann's result [R. Wittmann, Approximation of fixed points of nonexpansive mappings, Arch. Math. 58 (1992) 486-491]. Using this result, we obtain two corollaries which improve and extend their results.
