Hybrid algorithm for fixed points of weak relatively nonexpansive mappings and applications

In this paper, we introduce an iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a weak relatively nonexpansive mapping, the set of solutions of the variational inequality for the monotone mapping and the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem in a 2-uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space. Then we show that the iterative sequence converges strongly to a common element of the three sets. In this paper, we also give an example which is a weak relatively nonexpansive mapping but not a relatively nonexpansive mapping in Banach space $l^2$.     

A hybrid approximation method for equilibrium and fixed point problems for a monotone mapping and a nonexpansive mapping

The purpose of this paper is to present an iterative scheme by a hybrid method for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping, the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for α-inverse-strongly monotone mappings in the framework of a Hilbert space. We show that the iterative sequence converges strongly to a common element of the above three sets under appropriate conditions. Additionally, the idea of our results are applied to find a zero of a maximal monotone operator and a strictly pseudocontractive mapping in a real Hilbert space.     

An implicit iterative scheme for monotone variational inequalities and fixed point problems

In this paper we introduce an implicit iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of common fixed points of N$N$ nonexpansive mappings and the set of solutions of the variational inequality problem for a monotone, Lipschitz-continuous mapping. The implicit iterative scheme is based on two well-known methods: extragradient and approximate proximal. We obtain a weak convergence theorem for three sequences generated by this implicit iterative scheme. On the basis of this theorem, we also construct an implicit iterative process for finding a common fixed point of N+1$N+1$ mappings, such that one of these mappings is taken from the more general class of Lipschitz pseudocontractive mappings and the other N$N$ mappings are nonexpansive.

In this paper, we introduce an iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for an α ‐inverse strongly monotone mapping in a Hilbert space. We show that the sequence converges strongly to a common element of two sets under some mild conditions on parameters (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

In this paper, we introduce an iterative process which converges strongly to a common element of a set of common fixed points of finite family of closed relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings, the solution set of generalized equilibrium problem and the solution set of the variational inequality problem for an $\alpha$-inverse strongly monotone mapping in Banach spaces.     

A general iterative scheme for nonexpansive mappings and inverse-strongly monotone mappings

In this paper, we introduce an general iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for an inverse-strongly monotone mapping in a Hilbert space. We show that the iterative sequence converges strongly to a common element of the two sets. Using this results, we consider the problem of finding a common fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping and a strictly pseudocontractive mapping and the problem of finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of zeros of an inverse-strongly monotone mapping. The results of this paper extended and improved the results of Iiduka and Takahashi (Nonlinear Anal. 61:341–350, 2005).     

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.     

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.

We show that the sequence converges strongly to a common element of the above three sets under some parameters controlling conditions. This main theorem extends a recent result of Ceng et al. (Math Meth Oper Res 67:375–390, 2008) and many others.     

A hybrid iterative scheme for mixed 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 mixed equilibrium problem (MEP) and the set of common fixed points of finitely many nonexpansive mappings in a real Hilbert space. First, by using the well-known KKM technique we derive the existence and uniqueness of solutions of the auxiliary problems for the MEP. Second, by virtue of this result we introduce a hybrid iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of solutions of MEP and the set of common fixed points of finitely many nonexpansive mappings. Furthermore, we prove that the sequences generated by the hybrid iterative scheme converge strongly to a common element of the set of solutions of MEP and the set of common fixed points of finitely many nonexpansive mappings.

In this paper, we introduce an iterative process for finding the common element of the set of common fixed points of a countable family of nonexpansive mappings and the set of solutions of the variational inequality problem for an α$\alpha$-inverse-strongly-monotone mapping. We obtain a weak convergence theorem for a sequence generated by this process. Moreover, we apply our result to the problem for finding a common element of the set of equilibrium problems and the set of solutions of the variational inequality problem of a monotone mapping.     

Weak Convergence of an Iterative Method for Pseudomonotone Variational Inequalities and Fixed-Point Problems

We consider an iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of solutions of a pseudomonotone, Lipschitz-continuous variational inequality problem and the set of common fixed points of N nonexpansive mappings. The proposed iterative method combines two well-known schemes: extragradient and approximate proximal methods. We derive a necessary and sufficient condition for weak convergence of the sequences generated by the proposed scheme.     

Strong convergence of an iterative method for pseudo-contractive and monotone mappings

In this paper, we introduce an iterative process which converges strongly to a common element of fixed points of pseudo-contractive mapping and solutions of variational inequality problem for monotone mapping. As a consequence, we provide an iteration scheme which converges strongly to a common element of set of fixed points of finite family continuous pseudo-contractive mappings and solutions set of finite family of variational inequality problems for continuous monotone mappings. Our theorems extend and unify most of the results that have been proved for this class of nonlinear mappings.

We show that the sequence converge strongly to a common element of the above three sets under some parameters controlling conditions. The result extends and improves a recent result of Chang et al. (Nonlinear Anal. 70:3307–3319, 2009) and many others.

In this paper we study hybrid iterative scheme for finding a common element of set of solutions of generalized mixed equilibrium problem, set of common fixed points of finite family of weak relatively nonexpansive mapping and null spaces of finite family of γ-inverse strongly monotone mappings in a 2-uniformly convex and uniformly smooth real Banach space. Our results extend, improve and generalize the results of several authors which are announced recently. Application of our theorem to solution of equations of Hammerstein-type is of independent interest.

Then, we prove the strongly convergent theorem by a hybrid extragradient method to the common element of the set of fixed points of nonexpansive mappings, the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem and the set of solutions of a variational inequality problem.

Hao, Some new extragradient iterative methods for variational inequalities, Nonlinear Analysis (2008) doi:10.1016/j.na.2008.02.014] and many others.     

Iterative Approaches to Solving Equilibrium Problems and Fixed Point Problems of Infinitely Many Nonexpansive Mappings

Recently, O’Hara, Pillay and Xu (Nonlinear Anal. 54, 1417–1426, 2003) considered an iterative approach to finding a nearest common fixed point of infinitely many nonexpansive mappings in a Hilbert space. Very recently, Takahashi and Takahashi (J. Math. Anal. Appl. 331, 506–515, 2007) introduced 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. In this paper, motivated by these authors’ iterative schemes, we introduce a new iterative approach to finding a common element of the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem and the set of common fixed points of infinitely many nonexpansive mappings in a Hilbert space. The main result of this work is a strong convergence theorem which improves and extends results from the above mentioned papers.

In this paper, we construct a new iterative scheme by hybrid method for approximation of common element of set of zeroes of a finite family of ??-inverse-strongly monotone operators and set of common solutions to a system of generalized mixed equilibrium problems in a 2-uniformly convex real Banach space which is also uniformly smooth. Then, we prove strong convergence of the scheme to a common element of the two sets.

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.
