A general iterative algorithm for nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert spaces

Let H be a real Hilbert space. Suppose that T is a nonexpansive mapping on H with a fixed point, f is a contraction on H with coefficient 0<α<1, and F:H→H is a k-Lipschitzian and η-strongly monotone operator with k>0,η>0. Let . We proved that the sequence {x_n} generated by the iterative method x_n+1=α_nγf(x_n)+(I−μα_nF)Tx_n converges strongly to a fixed point , which solves the variational inequality , for x∈F_ix(T).     

A general iterative method for a finite family of nonexpansive mappings

We study the approximation of common fixed points of a finite family of nonexpansive mappings and suggest a modification of the iterative algorithm without the assumption of any type of commutativity. Also we show that the convergence of the proposed algorithm can be proved under some types of control conditions.     

New iterative scheme with nonexpansive mappings for equilibrium problems and variational inequality problems in Hilbert spaces

Recently, Ceng, Guu and Yao introduced an iterative scheme by viscosity-like approximation method to approximate the fixed point of nonexpansive mappings and solve some variational inequalities in Hilbert space (see Ceng et al. (2009) [9]). Takahashi and Takahashi proposed an iteration scheme to solve an equilibrium problem and approximate the fixed point of nonexpansive mapping by viscosity approximation method in Hilbert space (see Takahashi and Takahashi (2007) [12]). In this paper, we introduce an iterative scheme by viscosity approximation method for finding a common element of the set of a countable family of nonexpansive mappings and the set of an equilibrium problem in a Hilbert space. We prove the strong convergence of the proposed iteration to the unique solution of a variational inequality.     

Convergence theorems for a finite family of generalized nonexpansive multivalued mappings in CAT(0) spaces

We establish △-convergence and strong convergence theorems for an iterative process for a finite family of generalized nonexpansive multivalued mappings in a CAT(0) space. Moreover, we present a fixed point theorem for a pair consisting of a finite family of generalized nonexpansive single valued mappings, and a generalized nonexpansive multivalued mapping in CAT(0) spaces.     

Strong convergence of composite iterative schemes for a countable family of nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces

In this paper we propose a new modified viscosity approximation method for approximating common fixed points for a countable family of nonexpansive mappings in a Banach space. We prove strong convergence theorems for a countable family nonexpansive mappings in a reflexive Banach space with uniformly Gateaux differentiable norm under some control conditions. These results improve and extend the results of Jong Soo Jung [J.S. Jung, Convergence on composite iterative schemes for nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces, Fixed Point Theory and Appl. 2008 (2008) 14 pp., Article ID 167535]. Further, we apply our result to the problem of finding a zero of an accretive operator and extend the results of Kim and Xu [T.H. Kim, H.K. Xu, Strong convergence of modified Mann iterations, Nonlinear Anal. 61 (2005) 51-60], Ceng, et al. [L.-C. Ceng, A.R. Khan, Q.H. Ansari, J.-C, Yao, Strong convergence of composite iterative schemes for zeros of m-accretive operators in Banach space, Nonlinear Anal. 70 (2009)1830-1840] and Chen and Zhu [R. Chen, Z. Zhu, Viscosity approximation methods for accretive operator in Banach space, Nonlinear Anal. 69 (2008) 1356-1363].     

A general iterative method for equilibrium problems and fixed point problems in Hilbert spaces

The purpose of this paper is to study the strong convergence of a general iterative scheme to find a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping, the set of solutions of variational inequality for a relaxed cocoercive mapping and the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem. Our results extend the recent results of Takahashi and Takahashi [S. Takahashi, W. Takahashi, Viscosity approximation methods for equilibrium problems and fixed point problems in Hilbert spaces, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 331 (2007) 506–515], Marino and Xu [G. Marino, H.K. Xu, A general iterative method for nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert spaces, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 318 (2006) 43–52], Combettes and Hirstoaga [P.L. Combettes, S.A. Hirstoaga, Equilibrium programming in Hilbert spaces, J. Nonlinear Convex Anal. 6 (2005) 486–491], Iiduka and Takahashi, [H. Iiduka, W. Takahashi, Strong convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings and inverse-strongly monotone mappings, Nonlinear Anal. 61 (2005) 341–350] and many others.     

Strong convergence theorems for an infinite family of nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces

In an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, the normal Mann’s iteration algorithm has only weak convergence, in general, even for nonexpansive mappings. In order to get a strong convergence result, we modify the normal Mann’s iterative process for an infinite family of nonexpansive mappings in the framework of Banach spaces. Our results improve and extend the recent results announced by many others.     

Convergence to common fixed points of a finite family of nonexpansive mappings

We study approximation of common fixed points of a finite family of nonexpansive mappings and introduce an iterative scheme defined by using a convex combination of mappings. Strong convergence of the iteration is obtained under several types of control conditions.Received: 28 May 2004     

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.     

The viscosity approximation method for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces

A recent trend in the iterative methods for constructing fixed points of nonlinear mappings is to use the viscosity approximation technique. The advantage of this technique is that one can find a particular solution to the associated problems, and in most cases this particular solution solves some variational inequality. In this paper, we try to extend this technique to find a particular common fixed point of a finite family of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in a Banach space which is reflexive and has a weakly continuous duality map. Both implicit and explicit viscosity approximation schemes are proposed and their strong convergence to a solution to a variational inequality is proved.     

Convergence of iterative algorithms for multivalued mappings in Banach spaces

We show strong and weak convergence for Mann iteration of multivalued nonexpansive mappings T$T$ in a Banach space. Furthermore, we give a strong convergence of the modified Mann iteration which is independent of the convergence of the implicit anchor-like continuous path _zt∈tu+(1−t)T_zt$z_t\in tu+(1-t)T{z}_t$.     

On Kirk’s strong convergence theorem for multivalued nonexpansive mappings on CAT(0) spaces

We prove a strong convergence theorem for multivalued nonexpansive mappings which includes Kirk’s convergence theorem on CAT(0) spaces. The theorem properly contains a result of Jung for Hilbert spaces. We then apply the result to approximate a common fixed point of a countable family of single-valued nonexpansive mappings and a compact valued nonexpansive mapping.     

A modified Halpern-type iteration algorithm for a family of hemi-relatively nonexpansive mappings and systems of equilibrium problems in Banach spaces

In this paper, we prove strong convergence theorems by the hybrid method for a family of hemi-relatively nonexpansive mappings in a Banach space. Our results improve and extend the corresponding results given by Qin et al. [Xiaolong Qin, Yeol Je Cho, Shin Min Kang, Haiyun Zhou, Convergence of a modified Halpern-type iteration algorithm for quasi-?-nonexpansive mappings, Appl. Math. Lett. 22 (2009) 1051-1055], and at the same time, our iteration algorithm is different from the Kimura and Takahashi algorithm, which is a modified Mann-type iteration algorithm [Yasunori Kimura, Wataru Takahashi, On a hybrid method for a family of relatively nonexpansive mappings in Banach space, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 357 (2009) 356-363]. In addition, we succeed in applying our algorithm to systems of equilibrium problems which contain a family of equilibrium problems.
