Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the modified Halpern-type iterative method by the generalized f-projection operator for finding a common solution of fixed-point problem of a totally quasi--asymptotically nonexpansive mapping and a system of equilibrium problems in a uniform smooth and strictly convex Banach space with the Kadec-Klee property. Consequently, we prove the strong convergence for a common solution of above two sets. Our result presented in this paper generalize and improve the result of Chang et al., (2012), and some others.
1. Introduction
In 1953, Mann [1] introduced the following iteration process which is now known as Mann's iteration: where is nonexpansive, the initial guess element is arbitrary, and is a sequence in . Mann iteration has been extensively investigated for nonexpansive mappings. In an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, Mann iteration can conclude only weak conviergence (see [2, 3]).
Later, in 1967, Halpern [4] considered the following algorithm: where is nonexpansive. He proved the strong convergence theorem of to a fixed point of under some control condition . Many authors improved and studied the result of Halpern [4] such as Qin et al. [5], Wang et al. [6], and reference therein.
In 2008-2009, Takahashi and Zembayashi [7, 8] studied the problem of finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem in the framework of the Banach spaces.
On the other hand, Li et al. [9] introduced the following hybrid iterative scheme for approximation fixed points of relatively nonexpansive mapping using the generalized -projection operator in a uniformly smooth real Banach space which is also uniformly convex. They obtained strong convergence theorem for finding an element in the fixed point set of .
Recently, Ofoedu and Shehu [10] extended algorithm of Li et al. [9] to prove a strong convergence theorem for a common solution of a system of equilibrium problem and the set of common fixed points of a pair of relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings in the Banach spaces by using generalized -projection operator. Chang et al. [11] extended and improved Qin and Su [12] to obtain a strong convergence theorem for finding a common element of the set of solutions for a generalized equilibrium problem, the set of solutions for a variational inequality problem, and the set of common fixed points for a pair of relatively nonexpansive mappings in a Banach space.
Very recently, Chang et al. [13] extended the results of Qin et al. [5] and Wang et al. [6] to consider a modification to the Halpern-type iteration algorithm for a total quasi--asymptotically nonexpansive mapping to have the strong convergence under a limit condition only in the framework of Banach spaces.
The purpose of this paper is to be motivated and inspired by the works mentioned above, we introduce a modified Halpern-type iterative method by using the new hybrid projection algorithm of the generalized -projection operator for solving the common solution of fixed point for totally quasi--asymptoically nonexpansive mappings and the system of equilibrium problems in a uniformly smooth and strictly convex Banach space with the Kadec-Klee property. The results presented in this paper improve and extend the corresponding ones announced by many others.
2. Preliminaries and Definitions
Let be a real Banach space with dual , and let be a nonempty closed and convex subset of . Let be a bifunction, where is an arbitrary index set. The system of equilibrium problems is to find such that If is a singleton, then problem (2.1) reduces to the equilibrium problem, which is to find such that A mapping from into itself is said to be nonexpansive if is said to be asymptotically nonexpansive if there exists a sequence with as such that is said to be total asymptotically nonexpansive if there exist nonnegative real sequences , with , as and a strictly increasing continuous function with such that A point is a fixed point of provided . Denote by the fixed point set of ; that is, . A point in is called an asymptotic fixed point of if contains a sequence which converges weakly to such that . The asymptotic fixed point set of is denoted by .
The normalized duality mapping is defined by . If is a Hilbert space, then , where is the identity mapping. Consider the functional defined by where is the normalized duality mapping and denote the duality pairing of and .
If is a Hilbert space, then . It is obvious from the definition of that A mapping from into itself is said to be -nonexpansive [14, 15] if is said to be quasi--nonexpansive [14, 15] if and is said to be asymptotically -nonexpansive [15] if there exists a sequence with as such that is said to be quasi--asymptotically nonexpansive [15] if and there exists a sequence with as such that is said to be totally quasi--asymptotically nonexpansive, if and there exist nonnegative real sequences , with , as and a strictly increasing continuous function with such that A mapping from into itself is said to be closed if for any sequence such that and , then .
Alber [16] introduced the generalized projection is a map that assigns to an arbitrary point the minimum point of the functional ; that is, , where is the solution of the minimization problem: The existence and uniqueness of the operator follows from the properties of the functional and the strict monotonicity of the mapping (see, e.g., [16–20]). If is a Hilbert space, then and becomes the metric projection . If is a nonempty, closed, and convex subset of a Hilbert space , then is nonexpansive. This fact actually characterizes Hilbert spaces, and consequently, it is not available in more general Banach spaces. Later, Wu and Huang [21] introduced a new generalized -projection operator in the Banach space. They extended the definition of the generalized projection operators and proved some properties of the generalized -projection operator. Next, we recall the concept of the generalized -projection operator. Let be a functional defined by where , is positive number, and is proper, convex, and lower semicontinuous. From the definition of , Wu and Huang [21] proved the following properties:(1) is convex and continuous with respect to when is fixed; (2) is convex and lower semicontinuous with respect to when is fixed.
Definition 2.1. Let be a real Banach space with its dual . Let be a nonempty, closed, and convex subset of . We say that is a generalized -projection operator if
A Banach space with norm is called strictly convex if for all with and . Let be the unit sphere of . A Banach space is called smooth if the limit exists for each . It is also called uniformly smooth if the limit exists uniformly for all . The modulus of smoothness of is the function defined by . The modulus of convexity of (see [22]) is the function defined by . In this paper we denote the strong convergence and weak convergence of a sequence by and , respectively.
Remark 2.2. The basic properties of , , , and (see [18]) are as follows.(i)If is an arbitrary Banach space, then is monotone and bounded. (ii)If is a strictly convex, then is strictly monotone.(iii)If is a smooth, then is single valued and semicontinuous. (iv)If is uniformly smooth, then is uniformly norm-to-norm continuous on each bounded subset of . (v)If is reflexive smooth and strictly convex, then the normalized duality mapping is single valued, one-to-one, and onto. (vi)If is a reflexive strictly convex and smooth Banach space and is the duality mapping from into , then is also single valued, bijective, and is also the duality mapping from into , and thus and . (vii)If is uniformly smooth, then is smooth and reflexive.(viii) is uniformly smooth if and only if is uniformly convex.(ix)If is a reflexive and strictly convex Banach space, then is norm-weak*-continuous.
Remark 2.3. If is a reflexive, strictly convex, and smooth Banach space, then , if and only if . It is sufficient to show that if then . From (2.6), we have . This implies that . From the definition of , one has . Therefore, we have (see [18, 20, 23] for more details).
Recall that a Banach space has the Kadec-Klee property [18, 20, 24], if for any sequence and with and , then as . It is well known that if is a uniformly convex Banach space, then has the Kadec-Klee property.
We also need the following lemmas for the proof of our main results.
Lemma 2.4 (see Change et al. [25]). Let be a nonempty, closed, and convex subset of a uniformly smooth and strictly convex Banach space with the Kadec-Klee property. Let be a closed and total quasi--asymptotically nonexpansive mapping with nonnegative real sequence and with , as and a strictly increasing continuous function with . If , then the fixed point set is a closed convex subset of .
Lemma 2.5 (see Wu and Hung [21]). Let be a real reflexive Banach space with its dual and a nonempty, closed, and convex subset of . The following statement hold:(1) is a nonempty, closed and convex subset of for all ; (2)if is smooth, then for all , if and only if (3)if is strictly convex and is positive homogeneous (i.e., for all such that where ), then is single-valued mapping.
Lemma 2.6 (see Fan et al. [26]). Let be a real reflexive Banach space with its dual and be a nonempty, closed and convex subset of . If is strictly convex, then is single valued.
Recall that is single-valued mapping when is a smooth Banach space. There exists a unique element such that where . This substitution in (2.14) gives
Now we consider the second generalized projection operator in Banach space (see [9]).
Definition 2.7. Let be a real smooth Banach space, and let be a nonempty, closed, and convex subset of . We say that is generalized -projection operator if
Lemma 2.8 (see Deimling [27]). Let be a Banach space, and let be a lower semicontinuous convex function. Then there exist and such that
Lemma 2.9 (see Li et al. [9]). Let be a reflexive smooth Banach space, and let be a nonempty, closed, and convex subset of . The following statements hold: (1) is nonempty, closed and convex subset of for all ; (2)for all , if and only if (3)if is strictly convex, then is single-valued mapping.
Lemma 2.10 (see Li et al. [9]). Let be a real reflexive smooth Banach space, let be a nonempty, closed, and convex subset of , , and let . Then
Remark 2.11. Let be a uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space and for all , then Lemma 2.10 reduces to the property of the generalized projection operator considered by Alber [16].
If for all and , then the definition of totally quasi--asymptotically nonexpansive is equivalent to if , and there exist nonnegative real sequences , with , as and a strictly increasing continuous function with such that
For solving the equilibrium problem for a bifunction , let us assume that satisfies the following conditions: (A1) for all ; (A2) is monotone; that is, for all ; (A3)for each , (A4)for each , is convex and lower semicontinuous.
For example, let be a continuous and monotone operator of into and define Then, satisfies (A1)–(A4). The following result is in Blum and Oettli [28].
Lemma 2.12 (see Blum and Oettli [28]). Let be a closed convex subset of a smooth, strictly convex, and reflexive Banach space , let be a bifunction from to satisfying (A1)–(A4), and let and . Then, there exists such that
Lemma 2.13 (see Takahashi and Zembayashi [8]). Let be a closed convex subset of a uniformly smooth, strictly convex, and reflexive Banach space , and let be a bifunction from to satisfying conditions (A1)–(A4). For all and , define a mapping as follows: Then the following hold: (1) is single-valued; (2) is a firmly nonexpansive-type mapping [29]; that is, for all , (3); (4) is closed and convex.
