Abstract

In this paper, we consider the class of enriched nonexpansive mappings in the setting of geodesic spaces. We obtain a number of fixed point theorems for these mappings in geodesic spaces. Further, we employ the SP iterative method and present some new convergence theorems for the class of enriched nonexpansive mappings under different assumptions. We present some results concerning and strong convergence.

1. Introduction

Nonexpansive mappings are those class of nonlinear mappings which have Lipschitz constant equal to one. A nonexpansive mapping needs not to admit a fixed point in a complete space. However, Browder [1], Göhde [2], and Kirk [3] independently ensured the existence of fixed points of nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces under certain geometric assumptions. Many mathematicians have generalized and extended these results and considered a number of nonlinear mappings, see [49] (see also the references therein).

In 2019, Berinde [10] considered a new class of nonlinear mappings by enriching nonexpansive mappings, known as enriched nonexpansive mappings. He obtained some fixed point theorems for these classes of mappings in Hilbert spaces. It was observed in [10, 11] that class of enriched nonexpansive mappings has strong relations with averaged and nonexpansive mappings.

On the other hand, in 1970, Takahashi [12] considered the structure of convexity outside linear spaces. These spaces are fruitful in the context of fixed point theory. Goebel and Kirk [13] employed Krasnosel’skiĭ-Mann iterative method to find fixed points of nonexpansive mappings in hyperbolic type spaces. In the recent years, a number of papers have appeared in the literature dealing with the fixed point theorems in nonlinear spaces, see [1424].

The class of enriched nonexpansive mappings has been studied only in linear spaces. Now it is natural to extend this class of mappings outside of linear spaces (or in nonlinear spaces) and ensure the existence of fixed points. The aim of this paper is to study the class of enriched nonexpansive mappings in geodesic spaces. We observe that for every -enriched nonexpansive mapping, one can define a nonexpansive mapping, and the set of fixed points of both the mappings remains the same. Therefore, the existence of fixed points for -enriched nonexpansive mappings is equivalent to existence of fixed points for nonexpansive mappings. However, the convergence of fixed points for -enriched nonexpansive mappings is slightly different than the convergence of fixed points for nonexpansive mappings. We prove that Krasnosel’skiĭ method converges to fixed point of mapping. Further, we use SP iterative method to reckon fixed points of -enriched nonexpansive mappings under certain assumptions. These results are new even in Hilbert spaces. Our results extend, complement, and generalize some results from [10, 11, 16, 19, 2527].

2. Preliminaries

3. Main Results

In 2019, Berinde [10] considered a new class of mappings which is defined below.

Definition 18. Let be a Banach space and a mapping. The mapping is called -enriched nonexpansive if in such a way that for all

It can be noted that 0-enriched mapping is nonexpansive mapping. Even both the class of mappings, that is, quasi-nonexpansive and -enriched nonexpansive, are independent in nature, cf. [27].

Remark 19. Take , and it is straight forward from (19) that Take, then From the above inequality, we can take convex combination of and the identity mappings.

In view of Remark 19, we consider Definition 18 in -hyperbolic spaces.

4. SP Iterative Method

In this section, we present some convergence results for SP iterative process. For a fix and the mapping , the SP iterative method in the setting of hyperbolic metric spaces can be defined as follows [26]: where , , and are sequences in .
