Abstract

We introduce the modified iterations of Mann's type for nonexpansive mappings and asymptotically nonexpansive mappings to have the strong convergence in a uniformly convex Banach space. We study approximation of common fixed point of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in Banach space by using a new iterative scheme. Applications to the accretive operators are also included.

1. Introduction

Let be a real Banach space, a nonempty closed convex subset of , and a mapping. Recall that is a nonexpansive mapping [1] if for all , and is asymptotically nonexpansive [2] if there exists a sequence with for all and such that for all integers and . A point is a fixed point of provided . Denote by the set of fixed points of ; that is, .

Iterative methods are often used to solve the fixed point equation . One classical iteration process is introduced in 1953 by Mann [3] which is well known as Mann iteration process and is defined as follows: where the sequence is chosen in and the initial guess is arbitrarily chosen.

There exists rich literature on the convergence of Mann iteration for different classes of operators considered on various spaces. Mann’s iteration method (1) has been proved to be a powerful method for solving nonlinear operator equations involving nonexpansive mapping, asymptotically nonexpansive mapping, and other kinds of nonlinear mapping; see [311] and the references therein.

It is known that Mann’s iteration method (1) is in general not strongly convergent for nonexpansive mappings. So to get strong convergence, one has to modify the iteration method (1). In this regard, we will show the modified iteration in Section 3.

Motivated and inspired by the research going on in these fields, we suggest and analyze now new modified Mann’s iteration for finding the common fixed point of the nonexpansive mappings and asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in Banach space. We propose the modified Mann’s iteration and consider the strong convergence of the approximate solutions for nonexpansive and asymptotically nonexpansive in Banach space.

We suggest and analyze the following iterative: and if there exists two sequences and generated by

Our second modification of Mann’s iteration method (1) is adaption to (2) for finding a zero of an -accretive operator , for which we assume that the zero set . Our iterations process is given by (4), and sequences and are as follows (6), where, for each , is the resolvent of . We prove that not only defined by (4) but also and generated by (6) converge strongly to a zero of under certain assumptions in a uniformly Banach space.

We write to indicate that the sequence converges strongly to . Using is to denote the set of common fixed point of the mappings , , and , and using is to denote the set of common fixed points of the mappings and .

Since arbitrarily and exists, consequently, exists by Lemma 3. From Lemma 3 and (68), we get Since is a nondecreasing function satisfying , for all , therefore, we have Let , since and , therefore, there exists a constant such that, for all , we have in particular, There must exist such that From (70), it can be obtained that, when , This implies that is a Cauchy sequence in a closed convex subset of a Banach space . Thus, it must converge to a point in ; let .
For all , on lines similar to Theorem 8, from , it can be proved that . As is an arbitrary positive number, thus, . Similarly, we have , and then ( as ).
Finally, we prove .
Let , and put , for all . Then, We have . Now, Since and the boundedness of and , we get Moreover, and imply that Thus, given by Lemma 2 that So so we obtain that for (64) and (82), and it means . This completes the proof.

5. Application: Convergence to a Zero of Accretive Operators

Let be a real Banach space. Recall that an operator (possibly multivalued) with domain and range in is said to be accretive if, for each and , there exists a such that where is the normalized duality map from to the dual space given by An accretive operator is -accretive if for all . Denote the zero set of by

For an -accretive operator with and convex, the problem of finding a zero of , that is, has extensively been investigated due to its applications in related problems such as minimization problems, variational inequality problems, and nonlinear evolution equations.

It is known that the resolvent of , defined by for , is a nonexpansive mapping from to and it is straightforward to see that coincides with the fixed point set of for any . Therefore, (87) is equivalent to the fixed point problem . Then an interesting approach to solving this problem is via iterative methods for nonexpansive mappings. We need the resolvent identity [15].

Theorem 10. Let be a uniformly convex Banach space, and let be an m-accretive operator in such that , is nonexpansive commuting mappings for all () satisfying Condition . Given , , and are sequences in (0,1), such that , , and for some for all .

Theorem 11. Let be a nonempty bounded closed convex subset of a uniformly convex Banach space , and let be an m-accretive operator in such that , is nonexpansive for all () satisfying Condition (I). Given , , and are sequences in (0,1) such that , , and for some for all .
Define two sequences and in by algorithm (6); then and strongly converge to a zero of .

Proof. Only a sketch of the proof is given here.
Take any arbitrary ; it follows from Lemma 1 that and exist. From Lemma 2, it can be shown that and . Since is nonexpansive for all (), it follows from lemma 2.6 that and . Therefore, all the conditions in Theorems 7, 8, and 9, are satisfied and using the same argument in those theorems, the conclusion of Theorem 11 can be obtained immediately.
