Numerical solutions to large-scale differential Lyapunov matrix equations

In this paper, we introduce an extension of multiple set split variational inequality problem (Censor et al. Numer. Algor. 59, 301–323 2012) to multiple set split equilibrium problem (MSSEP) and propose two new parallel extragradient algorithms for solving MSSEP when the equilibrium bifunctions are Lipschitz-type continuous and pseudo-monotone with respect to their solution sets. By using extragradient method combining with cutting techniques, we obtain algorithms for these problems without using any product space. Under certain conditions on parameters, the iteration sequences generated by the proposed algorithms are proved to be weakly and strongly convergent to a solution of MSSEP. An application to multiple set split variational inequality problems and a numerical example and preliminary computational results are also provided.     

Modified subgradient extragradient algorithms for variational inequality problems and fixed point problems

The subgradient extragradient method can be considered as an improvement of the extragradient method for variational inequality problems for the class of monotone and Lipschitz continuous mappings. In this paper, we propose two new algorithms as combination between the subgradient extragradient method and Mann-like method for finding a common element of the solution set of a variational inequality and the fixed point set of a demicontractive mapping.     

New subgradient extragradient methods for solving monotone bilevel equilibrium problems

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we propose new subgradient extragradient methods for finding a solution of a strongly monotone equilibrium problem over the solution set of another monotone equilibrium problem which usually is called monotone bilevel equilibrium problem in Hilbert spaces. The first proposed algorithm is based on the subgradient extragradient method presented by Censor et al. [Censor Y, Gibali A, Reich S. The subgradient extragradient method for solving variational inequalities in Hilbert space. J Optim Theory Appl. 2011;148:318–335]. The strong convergence of the algorithm is established under monotone assumptions of the cost bifunctions with Lipschitz-type continuous conditions recently presented by Mastroeni in the auxiliary problem principle. We also present a modification of the algorithm for solving an equilibrium problem, where the constraint domain is the common solution set of another equilibrium problem and a fixed point problem. Several fundamental experiments are provided to illustrate the numerical behaviour of the algorithms and to compare with others.     

Extragradient Methods and Linesearch Algorithms for Solving Ky Fan Inequalities and Fixed Point Problems

In this paper, we introduce some new iterative methods for finding a common element of the set of points satisfying a Ky Fan inequality, and the set of fixed points of a contraction mapping in a Hilbert space. The strong convergence of the iterates generated by each method is obtained thanks to a hybrid projection method, under the assumptions that the fixed-point mapping is a ??-strict pseudocontraction, and the function associated with the Ky Fan inequality is pseudomonotone and weakly continuous. A?Lipschitz-type condition is assumed to hold on this function when the basic iteration comes from the extragradient method. This assumption is unnecessary when an Armijo backtracking linesearch is incorporated in the extragradient method. The particular case of variational inequality problems is examined in a last section.     

Strong convergence of the iterative scheme based on the extragradient method for mixed equilibrium problems and fixed point problems of an infinite family of nonexpansive mappings

In this paper, we introduce an iterative scheme based on the extragradient approximation method for finding a common element of the set of common fixed points of a countable family of nonexpansive mappings, the set of solutions of a mixed equilibrium problem, and the set of solutions of the variational inequality problem for a monotone L-Lipschitz continuous mapping in a real Hilbert space. Then, the strong convergence theorem is proved under some parameters controlling conditions. Applications to optimization problems are given. The results obtained in this paper improve and extend the recent ones announced by Wangkeeree [R. Wangkeeree, An extragradient approximation method for equilibrium problems and fixed point problems of a countable family of nonexpansive mappings, Fixed Point Theory and Applications (2008) 17. doi:10.1155/2008/134148.

Weak and strong convergence theorems for asymptotically pseudo-contraction mappings in the intermediate sense in Hilbert spaces

In this paper, we prove both weak and strong convergence theorems for finding a common element of the solution set for a generalized equilibrium problem, the fixed point set of an asymptotically k-strict pseudo-contraction mapping in the intermediate sense, and the solution set of the variational inequality for a monotone and Lipschitz-continuous mapping by using a new hybrid extragradient method. Our results generalize and improve related results in the literatures.

Further we establish a strong convergence theorem based on this method. The results presented in this paper improves and generalizes the results given in Yao et al. [36] and Ceng et al. [7], and some known corresponding results in the literature.     

A hybrid extragradient method for general variational inequalities

In this paper, we introduce and study a hybrid extragradient method for finding solutions of a general variational inequality problem with inverse-strongly monotone mapping in a real Hilbert space. An iterative algorithm is proposed by virtue of the hybrid extragradient method. Under two sets of quite mild conditions, we prove the strong convergence of this iterative algorithm to the unique common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of the general variational inequality problem, respectively.

Approximating a Zero of Sum of Two Monotone Operators Which Solves a Fixed Point Problem in Reflexive Banach Spaces

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to introduce an iterative method for approximating a point in the set of zeros of the sum of two monotone mappings, which is also a solution of a fixed point problem for a Bregman strongly nonexpansive mapping in a real reflexive Banach space. With our iterative technique, we state and prove a strong convergence theorem for approximating an element in the intersection of the set of solutions of a variational inclusion problem for sum of two monotone mappings and the set of solutions of a fixed point problem for Bregman strongly nonexpansive mapping. We give applications of our result to convex minimization problem, convex feasibility problem, variational inequality problem, and equilibrium problem. Our result complements and extends some recent results in literature.     

Extragradient algorithms for equilibrium problems and symmetric generalized hybrid mappings

In this paper, we propose new algorithms for finding a common point of the solution set of a pseudomonotone equilibrium problem and the set of fixed points of a symmetric generalized hybrid mapping in a real Hilbert space. The convergence of the iterates generated by each method is obtained under assumptions that the fixed point mapping is quasi-nonexpansive and demiclosed at 0, and the bifunction associated with the equilibrium problem is weakly continuous. The bifunction is assumed to be satisfying a Lipschitz-type condition when the basic iteration comes from the extragradient method. It becomes unnecessary when an Armijo back tracking linesearch is incorporated in the extragradient method.     

AN EXTRAGRADIENT METHOD FOR RELAXED COCOERCIVE VARIATIONAL INEQUALITY AND EQUILIBRIUM PROBLEMS

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the problem of finding the common element of the set of common fixed points of a countable family of nonexpansive mappings, the set of an equilibrium problem and the set of solutions of the variational inequality prob- lem for a relaxed cocoercive and Lipschitz continuous mapping in Hilbert spaces. Then, we show that the sequence converges strongly to a common element of the above three sets under some parameter controlling conditions, which are connected with Yao, Liou, Yao[17], Takahashi[12] and many others.

Accelerated hybrid and shrinking projection methods for variational inequality problems

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we introduce several new extragradient-like approximation methods for solving variational inequalities in Hilbert spaces. Our algorithms are based on Tseng's extragradient method, subgradient extragradient method, inertial method, hybrid projection method and shrinking projection method. Strong convergence theorems are established under appropriate conditions. Our results extend and improve some related results in the literature. In addition, the efficiency of our algorithms is shown through numerical examples which are defined by the hybrid projection methods.     

Hybrid extragradient method for general equilibrium problems and fixed point problems in Hilbert space

In this paper, we introduce an iterative scheme by the hybrid methods for finding a 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 in a Hilbert space. 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. Our results extend and improve the results of Bnouhachem et al. [A. Bnouhachem, M. Aslam Noor, Z. Hao, Some new extragradient iterative methods for variational inequalities, Nonlinear Analysis (2008) doi:10.1016/j.na.2008.02.014] and many others.     

A new shrinking gradient-like projection method for equilibrium problems

The paper proposes a new shrinking gradient-like projection method for solving equilibrium problems. The algorithm combines the generalized gradient-like projection method with the monotone hybrid method. Only one optimization program is solved onto the feasible set at each iteration in our algorithm without any extra-step dealing with the feasible set. The absence of an optimization problem in the algorithm is explained by constructing slightly different cutting-halfspace in the monotone hybrid method. Theorem of strong convergence is established under standard assumptions imposed on equilibrium bifunctions. An application of the proposed algorithm to multivalued variational inequality problems (MVIP) is presented. Finally, another algorithm is introduced for MVIPs in which we only use a value of main operator at the current approximation to construct the next approximation. Some preliminary numerical experiments are implemented to illustrate the convergence and computational performance of our algorithms over others.     

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.     

General Iterative Methods for Semigroups of Nonexpansive Mappings Related to Optimization Problems

Abstract

In this article, we introduce two general iterative methods for a certain optimization problem of which the constrained set is the set of the solution set of the variational inequality problem for the fixed point set of nonexpansive semigroups in Hilbert spaces. Under some control conditions, we establish the strong convergence of the proposed methods to the fixed point set, which is the unique solution of a certain optimization problem. Applications to solutions of equilibrium problems are also presented.     

Parallel Algorithms for Solving a Class of Variational Inequalities over the Common Fixed Points Set of a Finite Family of Demicontractive Mappings

Abstract

We propose parallel algorithms for solving a class of variational inequalities over the set of common fixed points for a finite family of demicontractive mappings in real Hilbert spaces. Under some suitable conditions, we prove that the sequence generated by the proposed algorithms converges strongly to a solution of the problem. We apply the proposed algorithms to strongly monotone variational inequality problems with pseudomonotone equilibrium constraints by defining a quasi-nonexpansive and demi-closed mapping whose fixed point set coincides with the solution set of the equilibrium problem.
