Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new hybrid projection method for finding a common element of the set of common fixed points of two relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings, the set of
the variational inequality for an α-inverse-strongly monotone, and the set of solutions of the generalized
equilibrium problem in the framework of a real Banach space. We obtain a strong convergence theorem
for the sequences generated by this process in a 2-uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space.
Base on this result, we also get some new and interesting results. The results in this paper generalize,
extend, and unify some well-known strong convergence results in the literature.
1. Introduction

A Banach space
is uniformly convex if and only if

is said to be
-uniformly convex if there exists a constant
such that

-uniform convex is uniformly convex. One should note that no Banach space is
-uniform convex for

for all

Next, we give some examples which are closed relatively quasi-nonexpansive (see [8]).
Example 1.2.
Let
be the generalized projection from a smooth, strictly convex and reflexive Banach space
onto a nonempty closed and convex subset
of
. Then,
is a closed relatively quasi-nonexpansive mapping from
onto
with
.
Let
be a real Banach space and let
be a nonempty closed and convex subset of

be a mapping. The classical variational inequality problem for a mapping A is to find
such that

The set of solutions of (1.4) is denoted by
. Recall that A is called
(i)
monotone if

(ii)
an
-inverse-strongly monotone if there exists a constant
such that
(1.9)
Such a problem is connected with the convex minimization problem, the complementary problem, and the problem of finding a point
satisfying
.
Let
be a bifunction from
to

such that
(1.10)
The set of solutions of (1.10) is denoted by

Remark 1.3.
The class of relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings is more general than the class of relatively nonexpansive mappings [16–19] which requires the strong restriction
.
In Hilbert spaces
, Iiduka et al. [20] proved that the sequence
defined by:
and
(1.12)
where
is the metric projection of
onto
, and
is a sequence of positive real numbers, and converges weakly to some element of
.
It is well know that if
is a nonempty closed and convex subset of a Hilbert space
and
is the metric projection of
onto
, then
is nonexpansive. This fact actually characterizes Hilbert spaces and consequently, it is not available in more general Banach spaces. In this connection, Alber [4] recently introduced a generalized projection mapping
in a Banach space
which is an analogue of the metric projection in Hilbert spaces.
In 2008, Iiduka and Takahashi [21] introduced the following iterative scheme for finding a solution of the variational inequality problem for inverse-strongly monotone
in a
-uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space 
and
(1.13)
for every
where
is the generalized metric projection from
onto 
is the duality mapping from
into
, and
is a sequence of positive real numbers. They proved that the sequence
generated by (1.13) converges weakly to some element of
.
Matsushita and Takahashi [22] introduced the following iteration: a sequence
defined by
(1.14)
where the initial guess element
is arbitrary,
is a real sequence in 
is a relatively nonexpansive mapping, and
denotes the generalized projection from
onto a closed convex subset
of
. They proved that the sequence
converges weakly to a fixed point of
.
In 2005, Matsushita and Takahashi [19] proposed the following hybrid iteration method (it is also called the CQ method) with generalized projection for relatively nonexpansive mapping
in a Banach space
:
(1.15)
They proved that
converges strongly to
, where
is the generalized projection from
onto
.
Recently, Takahashi and Zembayashi [23] proposed the following modification of iteration (1.15) for a relatively nonexpansive mapping:
(1.16)
where
is the duality mapping on
. Then,
converges strongly to
where
is the generalized projection of
onto
Also, Takahashi and Zembayashi [24] proved the following iteration for a relatively nonexpansive mapping:
(1.17)
where
is the duality mapping on
. Then,
converges strongly to
where
is the generalized projection of
onto
Qin and Su [25] proved the following iteration for relatively nonexpansive mappings
in a Banach space
:
(1.18)
the sequence
generated by (1.18) converges strongly to 
In 2009, Wei et al. [26] proved the following iteration for two relatively nonexpansive mappings in a Banach space
:
(1.19)
if
and
are sequences in
such that
and
for some
then
generated by (1.19) converges strongly to a point
where the mapping
of
onto
is the generalized projection. Very recently, Cholamjiak [27] proved the following iteration:
(1.20)
where
is the duality mapping on
. Assume that 
, and
are sequences in
. Then
converges strongly to
, where 
Motivated and inspired by Iiduka and Takahashi [21], Takahashi and Zembayashi [23, 24], Wei et al. [26], Cholamjiak [27], and Kumam and Wattanawitoon [28], we introduce a new hybrid projection iterative scheme which is difference from the algorithm (1.20) of Cholamjiak in [27, Theorem 3.1] for two relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings in a Banach space. For an initial point
with
and
, define a sequence
as follows:
(1.21)
where
is the duality mapping on
. Then, we prove that under certain appropriate conditions on the parameters, the sequences
and
generated by (1.21) converge strongly to 
The results presented in this paper improve and extend the corresponding results announced by Iiduka and Takahashi [21], Wei et al. [26], Kumam and Wattanawitoon [28], and many other authors in the literature.

3. Main Results
In this section, we establish a new hybrid iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of solutions of an equilibrium problems, the common fixed point set of two relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings, and the solution set of variational inequalities for
-inverse strongly monotone in a 2-uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space.
Theorem 3.1.
Let
be a nonempty closed and convex subset of a 2-uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space

.
Proof.
We have several steps to prove this theorem as follows:Step 1. We show that
is closed and convex.
Clearly
is closed and convex. Suppose that
is closed and convex for each
. Since for any
, we know that
(3.2)
is equivalent to
(3.3)
So,
is closed and convex. Then, by induction,
is closed and convex for all
.Step 2. We show that
is well defined.
Put
for all
. On the other hand, from Lemma 2.8 one has
is relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings and
Supposing
for
by the convexity of
for each
, we have
(3.4)
and so
(3.5)
For all
, we know from Lemma 2.10, that
(3.6)
Since
and from
being an
-inverse-strongly monotone, we get
(3.7)
From Lemma 2.1 and
being an
-inverse-strongly monotone, we obtain
(3.8)
Substituting (3.7) and (3.8) into (3.6), we have
(3.9)
Replacing (3.9) into (3.5), we get
(3.10)
Substituting (3.10) into (3.4), we also have
(3.11)
This shows that
and hence, 
. Hence, 
for all
. This implies that the sequence
is well defined.Step 3. We show that
exists and
is bounded.
From
and
we have
(3.12)
and from Lemma 2.5, we have
(3.13)
From (3.12) and (3.13), then
are nondecreasing and bounded. So, we obtain that
exists. In particular, by (1.6), the sequence
is bounded. This implies that
is also bounded.Step 4. We show that
is a Cauchy sequence in
.
Since 
, for
, by Lemma 2.5, we have
(3.14)
Taking
, we have
We have
. From Lemma 2.3, we get
. Thus
is a Cauchy sequence.Step 5. We cliam that
, as
.
By the completeness of
, the closedness of
and
is a Cauchy sequence (from Step 4); we can assume that there exists
such that
as
.
By definition of
, we have
(3.15)
Since
exists, we get
(3.16)
It follow form Lemma 2.3, that
(3.17)
Since
and from the definition of
, we have
(3.18)
and so
(3.19)
Hence
(3.20)
By using the triangle inequality, we obtain
(3.21)
By (3.17), (3.20), we get
(3.22)
Since
is uniformly norm-to-norm continuous on bounded subsets of
, we have
(3.23)Step 6. Show that
.
Applying (3.4) and (3.11), we get
From Lemma 2.9 and
, we observe that
(3.24)
From (3.22), (3.23) and Lemma 2.3, we get
(3.25)
Since
is uniformly norm-to-norm continuous, we obtain
(3.26)
From
, we have
as
and
(3.27)
By (A2), that
(3.28)
and
, we get
for all
. For
, define
. Then
which implies that
From (A1), we obtain that
(3.29)
Thus
From (A3), we have
for all
. Hence
.Step 7. We show that
.
From definition of
, we have
(3.30)
Since
, we have
(3.31)
It follows from (3.16) that
(3.32)
again from Lemma 2.3, we get
(3.33)
By using the triangle inequality, we get
(3.34)
Again by (3.17) and (3.33), we also have
(3.35)
Since
is uniformly norm-to-norm continuous, we obtain
(3.36)
Since
(3.37)
from (3.22), (3.25), and (3.35), we have
(3.38)
Since
is uniformly norm-to-norm continuous, we also have
(3.39)
From (3.1), we get
(3.40)
it follows that
(3.41)
and hence
(3.42)
Since
for some
, (3.36), and (3.39), one has
Since
is uniformly norm-to-norm continuous, we get
(3.43)
Since
(3.44)
from (3.35) and (3.43), we obtain
(3.45)
Since
is closed and
, we have
.
On the other hand, we note that
(3.46)
It follows from
and
, that
(3.47)
Furthermore, from (3.4) and (3.5),
(3.48)
and hence
(3.49)
From (3.47) and (3.49), we have
(3.50)
From Lemma 2.5, Lemma 2.10, and (3.8), we compute
(3.51)
Applying Lemmas 2.3 and (3.50), we obtain that
(3.52)
Again since
is uniformly norm-to-norm continuous on bounded set, we have
(3.53)
Since
(3.54)
by (3.35) and (3.52), we have
(3.55)
and hence
(3.56)From (3.1) we obtain that
(3.57)
and hence
(3.58)
so
(3.59)By (3.53), (3.56) andcondition
for some
we obtain
(3.60)
Since
is uniformly norm-to-norm continuous on bounded set, we obtain
(3.61)
Since
, then
Thus by the closedness of
and
we get
. Hence
.Step 8. We show that
.
Define
by Theorem 2.11;
is maximal monotone and
. Let
. Since
, we get
.
From
, we have
(3.62)
On the other hand, since
, then by Lemma 2.4, we have
(3.63)
and hence
(3.64)
It follows from (3.62) and (3.64), that
(3.65)
Where
. Taking the limit as
and (3.53), we obtain
. By the maximality of
, we have
; that is,
.Step 9. We show that
.
From
, we have 
Since
, we also have
(3.66)
By taking limit
, we obtain that
(3.67)
By Lemma 2.4, we can conclude that
and
as
. This completes the proof.
Setting
in Theorem 3.1., so, we obtain the following corollary.
Corollary 3.2.
