A fixed point theorem for pointwise eventually nonexpansive mappings in nearly uniformly convex Banach spaces

The purpose of this paper is to prove the existence of a fixed point for a pointwise eventually nonexpansive mapping in a nearly uniformly convex Banach space. This provides an affirmative answer to a question given by Kirk and Xu [W.A. Kirk, Hong-Kun Xu, Asymptotic pointwise contraction, Nonlinear Anal. 69 (2008), 4706-4712].     

A fixed point theorem for nonexpansive semigroups in p-uniformly convex Banach spaces

We prove that if RUC(S) has a left invariant mean,ρ = {T _s :s ∈S} is a continuous representation ofS as nonexpansive mappings on a closed convex subsetC of a p-uniformly convex and p-uniformly smooth Banach space andC contains an element of bounded orbit, thenC contains a common fixed point forρ.     

Fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings versus that for nonexpansive semigroups

The main result of this paper is that a closed convex subset of a Banach space has the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings if and only if it has the fixed point property for nonexpansive semigroups.     

Common fixed point theorem for noncommuting mappings satisfying a generalized asymptotically nonexpansive condition

We present a common fixed point theorem for generalized asymptotically nonexpansive and noncommuting mappings in normed linear spaces.      

Fixed point properties of semigroups of nonexpansive mappings

We prove that if H is a Hilbert space then the Schatten (trace) class operators on H has the weak^∗ fixed point property for left reversible semigroups. This answered positively a problem raised by A.T.-M. Lau. We also prove that if M is a finite von Neumann algebra then any nonempty bounded convex subset of the non-commutative L¹-space associated to M that is compact for the measure topology has the fixed point property for left reversible semigroups.     

The fixed point property for multivalued nonexpansive mappings

We show some properties concerning geometrical constants of Banach spaces which imply the existence of fixed points for multivalued nonexpansive mappings and we study the relationship between these properties.     

A fixed point theorem for weakly Zamfirescu mappings

In [5], Zamfirescu (1972) gave a fixed point theorem that generalizes the classical fixed point theorems by Banach, Kannan, and Chatterjea. In this paper, we follow the ideas of Dugundji and Granas to extend Zamfirescu’s fixed point theorem to the class of weakly Zamfirescu maps. A continuation method for this class of maps is also given.     

Minimum-norm fixed point of nonexpansive mappings with applications

The purpose of this paper is to present two new iterative algorithms to find the minimum norm fixed point of nonexpansive nonself-mappings in the framework of Hilbert spaces. The results presented in this paper improve and extend the corresponding ones announced by Yao and Xu [Yao Y, Xu HK. Iterative methods for finding minimum norm fixed point of mappings with applications. Optimization. 2011;60:645–658] and many others. Some applications to convex minimization and split feast problems(SFP) are also included.     

An ergodic theorem for semigroups of nonexpansive mappings in a Hilbert space

J. B. Baillon [C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris Ser. A.280 (1975), 1511–1514] proved an ergodic theorem for a single nonexpansive mapping in a Hilbert space, which is a nonlinear version of von Neumann's mean ergodic theorem. In this paper, we study the ergodic behavior of a semigroup of nonexpansive mappings. We try to find a sequence of means on the semigroup, generalizing the Cesàro means on $\text{N}$, such that the corresponding sequence of nonexpansive mappings converges to a projection onto the set of common fixed-points. Our method of proof is an appropriate modification of A. Pazy's proof [Israel J. Math.26 (1977), 197–204] of Baillon's theorem.     

Strong convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings and nonexpansive semigroups

In this paper, we show strong convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings and nonexpansive semigroups in Hilbert spaces by the hybrid method in the mathematical programming.     

Approximation of fixed points for amenable semigroups of nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces

The purpose of this paper is to study iterative schemes of Browder and Halpern types for a semigroup of nonexpansive mappings on a compact convex subset of a smooth (and strictly convex) Banach space with respect to a sequence of strongly asymptotic invariant means defined on an appropriate space of bounded real valued functions of the semigroup. Various applications to the additive semigroup of nonnegative real numbers and commuting pairs of nonexpansive mappings are also presented.     

Edelstein's method and fixed point theorems for some generalized nonexpansive mappings

A new condition for mappings, called condition (C), which is more general than nonexpansiveness, was recently introduced by Suzuki [T. Suzuki, Fixed point theorems and convergence theorems for some generalized nonexpansive mappings, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 340 (2008) 1088-1095]. Following the idea of Kirk and Massa Theorem in [W.A. Kirk, S. Massa, Remarks on asymptotic and Chebyshev centers, Houston J. Math. 16 (1990) 364-375], we prove a fixed point theorem for mappings with condition (C) on a Banach space such that its asymptotic center in a bounded closed and convex subset of each bounded sequence is nonempty and compact. This covers a result obtained by Suzuki [T. Suzuki, Fixed point theorems and convergence theorems for some generalized nonexpansive mappings, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 340 (2008) 1088-1095]. We also present fixed point theorems for this class of mappings defined on weakly compact convex subsets of Banach spaces satisfying property (D). Consequently, we extend the results in [T. Suzuki, Fixed point theorems and convergence theorems for some generalized nonexpansive mappings, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 340 (2008) 1088-1095] to many other Banach spaces.     

A note on connection properties of fixed point sets of nonexpansive mappings

We consider a discrete-time GALERKIN method for nonlinear evolution equations. We prove convergence properties of this method under various hypotheses. Moreover, we deal with iteration methods reducing the nonlinear GALERKIN equations to linear equations in finite dimensional spaces.     

Uniformly nonsquare Banach spaces have the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings

It is shown that if the modulus Γ_X of nearly uniform smoothness of a reflexive Banach space satisfies , then every bounded closed convex subset of X has the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings. In particular, uniformly nonsquare Banach spaces have this property since they are properly included in this class of spaces. This answers a long-standing question in the theory.     

A new iterative method for equilibrium problems and fixed point problems of infinitely nonexpansive mappings and monotone mappings

In this paper, we introduce a new iterative scheme for finding the common element of the set of common fixed points of infinitely many nonexpansive mappings, the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for α-inverse-strongly monotone mapping in Hilbert spaces. We prove that the sequence converges strongly to a common element of the above three sets under some parameters controlling conditions. This main result improve and extend Plubtieng and Punpaeng’s corresponding result [S. Plubtieng, R. Punpaeng, A new iterative method for equilibrium problems and fixed point problems of nonexpansive mappings and monotone mappings, Applied Mathematics and Computation 197 (2008), 548–558]. Using this theorem, we obtain three corollaries.
