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 theorem for pseudo-contractive mappings in Hilbert spaces

The purpose of this paper is to construct an Ishikawa type of hybrid algorithm for pseudo-contractive mappings in Hilbert spaces. Our results extend the recent ones announced by Yao et al. [Y.H. Yao, Y.C. Liou, G. Marino, A hybrid algorithm for pseudo-contractive mappings, Nonlinear Anal. 71 (2009) 4997-5002] and many others.     

On the rate of convergence in the individual ergodic theorem for the action of a semigroup

We consider the individual ergodic theorem for the action of a semigroup of measurepreserving mappings. We estimate the rate of convergence using estimates for the probability of large deviations for the ergodic averages with an essentially bounded averaging function. We find estimates for the rate of convergence of the ergodic averages in the cases of Benedicks–Carleson quadratic mappings, expanding mappings of Pomeau–Manneville type with a neutral point, and multidimensional shifts.

Strong convergence theorem for nonexpansive semigroups in Hilbert space

The purpose of this paper is to prove the strong convergence of a method combining the descent method and the hybrid method in mathematical programming for finding a point in the common fixed point set of a semigroup of nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert space.     

Fixed point theorems for non-Lipschitzian mappings of asymptotically nonexpansive type

LetX be a Banach space,K a nonempty, bounded, closed and convex subset ofX, and supposeT:K→K satisfies: for eachx∈K, lim sup _i→∞{sup _y∈K ‖t ⁱx−Tⁱy∼−‖x−y‖}≦0. IfT ^N is continuous for some positive integerN, and if either (a)X is uniformly convex, or (b)K is compact, thenT has a fixed point inK. The former generalizes a theorem of Goebel and Kirk for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings. These are mappingsT:K→K satisfying, fori sufficiently large, ‖Tⁱx−Tⁱy‖≦k _i‖x−y∼,x,y∈K, wherek _i→1 asi→∞. The precise assumption in (a) is somewhat weaker than uniform convexity, requiring only that Goebel’s characteristic of convexity, ɛ₀ (X), be less than one.

A strong convergence theorem for relatively nonexpansive mappings in a Banach space

In this paper, we prove a strong convergence theorem for relatively nonexpansive mappings in a Banach space by using the hybrid method in mathematical programming. Using this result, we also discuss the problem of strong convergence concerning nonexpansive mappings in a Hilbert space and maximal monotone operators in a Banach space.     

The ergodic theorem for Markov processes

Most of the material in Sections 4-5-6-8-11 has been published in [4]-[10]. We shall deal with the asymptotical behavior of the iterates of a Markov transition function. Our aim is to generalize the results about the ‘cyclic’ convergence of the iterates of a Markov matrix. Throughout the paper functional analytic methods are used and not probabilistic arguments. The report is self contained, modulo standart results from functional analysis, except for the decomposition into conservative and dissipative parts. Also we assume the existence of an invariant σ finite measure on the conservative part. This has been proved, under some restrictions, by several authors using probabilistic methods.
