A hybrid approximation method for equilibrium and fixed point problems for a monotone mapping and a nonexpansive mapping

The purpose of this paper is to present an iterative scheme by a hybrid method for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping, the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for α -inverse-strongly monotone mappings in the framework of a Hilbert space. We show that the iterative sequence converges strongly to a common element of the above three sets under appropriate conditions. Additionally, the idea of our results are applied to find a zero of a maximal monotone operator and a strictly pseudocontractive mapping in a real Hilbert space.

A hybrid extragradient method for general variational inequalities

In this paper, we introduce and study a hybrid extragradient method for finding solutions of a general variational inequality problem with inverse-strongly monotone mapping in a real Hilbert space. An iterative algorithm is proposed by virtue of the hybrid extragradient method. Under two sets of quite mild conditions, we prove the strong convergence of this iterative algorithm to the unique common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of the general variational inequality problem, respectively.

Viscosity approximation methods for nonexpansive mappings and inverse-strongly monotone mappings in Hilbert spaces

Let C be a closed convex subset of a Hilbert space H. Let f is a contraction on C. Let S be a nonexpansive mapping of C into itself and A be an α-inverse-strongly monotone mapping of C into H. Assuming that F(S)∩VI(C,A)≠φ, and x0=x∈C, in this paper we introduce the iterative process xn+1=αnf(xn)+βnxn+γn(μSxn+(1−μ)(PC(I−λnA)yn)), where yn=PC(I−λnA)xn. We prove that {xn} and {yn} converge strongly to the same point z∈F(S)∩VI(C,A). As its application, we give a strong convergence theorem for nonexpansive mapping and strictly pseudo-contractive mapping in a Hilbert space.

A general iterative scheme for nonexpansive mappings and inverse-strongly monotone mappings

In this paper, we introduce an general iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for an inverse-strongly monotone mapping in a Hilbert space. We show that the iterative sequence converges strongly to a common element of the two sets. Using this results, we consider the problem of finding a common fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping and a strictly pseudocontractive mapping and the problem of finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of zeros of an inverse-strongly monotone mapping. The results of this paper extended and improved the results of Iiduka and Takahashi (Nonlinear Anal. 61:341–350, 2005).

Algorithms of common solutions to quasi variational inclusion and fixed point problems

The purpose of this paper is to present an iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of solutions to the variational inclusion problem with multivalued maximal monotone mapping and inverse-strongly monotone mappings and the set of fixed points of nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert space. Under suitable conditions, some strong convergence theorems for approximating this common elements are proved. The results presented in the paper not only improve and extend the main results in Korpelevich (Ekonomika i Matematicheskie Metody, 1976, 12(4):747–756), but also extend and replenish the corresponding results obtained by Iiduka and Takahashi (Nonlinear Anal TMA, 2005, 61(3):341–350), Takahashi and Toyoda (J Optim Theory Appl, 2003, 118(2):417–428), Nadezhkina and Takahashi (J Optim Theory Appl, 2006, 128(1):191–201), and Zeng and Yao (Taiwanese Journal of Mathematics, 2006, 10(5):1293–1303).

A new method for solving equilibrium problem fixed point problem and variational inequality problem with application to optimization

In this paper, we introduce a new iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem, the set of common fixed point for a family of infinitely nonexpansive mappings and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for α -inverse-strongly monotone mappings in a Hilbert space. Under suitable conditions, some strong convergence theorems for approximating a common element of the above three sets are obtained. As applications, at the end of the paper we utilize our results to study the optimization problem and some convergence problem for strictly pseudocontractive mappings. The results presented in the paper extend and improve some recent results of Yao and Yao [Y.Y. Yao, J.C. Yao, On modified iterative method for nonexpansive mappings and monotone mappings, Appl. Math.

Strong convergence theorems by a relaxed extragradient method for a general system of variational inequalities

In this paper, we introduce and study a relaxed extragradient method for finding solutions of a general system of variational inequalities with inverse-strongly monotone mappings in a real Hilbert space. First, this system of variational inequalities is proven to be equivalent to a fixed point problem of nonexpansive mapping. Second, by using the demi-closedness principle for nonexpansive mappings, we prove that under quite mild conditions the iterative sequence defined by the relaxed extragradient method converges strongly to a solution of this system of variational inequalities. In addition, utilizing this result, we provide some applications of the considered problem not just giving a pure extension of existing mathematical problems.

In this paper, we introduce an iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping, the set of solutions of the variational inequality for an inverse-strongly monotone mapping and the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem in a Hilbert space. We show that the iterative sequence converges strongly to a common element of the three sets. The results of this paper extended and improved the results of H. Iiduka and W.

Therefore, by using the above result, an iterative algorithm for the solution of a optimization problem was obtained.

Some new unified iteration schemes with errors for nonexpansive mappings and variational inequalities

In this paper, we suggest and analyze a class of unified iteration schemes with errors for the variational inequalities coupled with nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert spaces. The main results of this paper extend the main results of Iiduka and Takahashi [H. Iiduka, W. Takahashi, Strong convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings and inverse-strongly monotone mappings, Nonlinear Anal. 61 (2005) 341–350], and Takahasi and Toyoda [W. Takahasi, M. Toyoda, Weak convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings and monotone mappings, J. Optim. Theory Appl. 118 (2) (2003) 417–428] to the case of strong convergence for relaxed ( γ, r)-cocoercive mappings involved in variational inequalities. Results obtained in this paper may be viewed as an refinement of the previously known results in this field.

Viscosity approximation methods for nonexpansive mappings and monotone mappings

Viscosity approximation methods for nonexpansive mappings are studied. Consider the iteration process { x n } , where x 0 ∈ C is arbitrary and x n + 1 = α n f ( x n ) + ( 1 − α n ) S P C ( x n − λ n A x n ) , f is a contraction on C, S is a nonexpansive self-mapping of a closed convex subset C of a Hilbert space H. It is shown that { x n } converges strongly to a common element of the set of fixed points of nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for an inverse strongly-monotone mapping which solves some variational inequality.

In this paper, we introduce an iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for an inverse-strongly monotone mapping in a Hilbert space. Then we show that the sequence converges strongly to a common element of two sets. Using this result, we consider the problem of finding a common fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping and a strictly pseudocontractive mapping and the problem of finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of zeros of an inverse-strongly monotone mapping.

In this paper, we introduce an iteration process of finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of a variational inequality problem for an inverse strongly-monotone mapping, and then obtain a weak convergence theorem. Using this result, we obtain a weak convergence theorem for a pair of a nonexpansive mapping and a strictly pseudocontractive mapping. Further, we consider the problem of finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of zeros of an inverse strongly-monotone mapping.
