Introduction and preliminaries Let E be a Banach space and let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of E. Let T : K→K be a mapping. Then T is called nonexpansive if T x − T y ≤ x − y 1.1 for all x, y ∈ K. T is called asymptotically nonexpansive if there exists a sequence {kn } ⊂ 1, ∞ that converges to 1 as n→∞ such that n T x − T n y ≤ kn x − y 1.2 for all x, y ∈ K and all n ≥ 1. Obviously, a nonexpansive mapping is asymptotically nonexpansive. In 1, Goebel and Kirk originally introduced the concept of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings and proved that if E is a uniformly convex Banach space and K is a nonempty closed convex bounded subset of E, then every asymptotically nonexpansive 2 Fixed Point Theory and Applications self-mapping on K has a fixed point. After that, many authors began to study the convergence of the iterative scheme generated by asymptotically nonexpansive mappings 2–12. In 8, the authors introduced an iterative scheme generated by a finite family of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings: xn αn xn−1 1 − αn Trlnn 1 xn , n ≥ 1, 1.3 where {αn } is a sequence in 0, 1, {Ti }N i1 : K→K are N asymptotically nonexpansive mappings, where K is a nonempty closed convex subset of a uniformly convex Banach space satisfying Opial’s condition 13, and where n ln N rn for some integers ln ≥ 0 φ, then {xn } generated by 1.3 and 1 ≤ rn ≤ N. Then the authors proved that if ∩N i1 FTi / strongly converges to a common fixed point of {Ti }N . i1 Let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of a uniformly convex Banach space E. Let S : K→K be a nonexpansive mapping and let T : K→K be an asymptotically nonexpansive mapping. In 10, the authors introduced the following modified Ishikawa iteration sequence with errors with respect to S and T : yn a n Sxn bn T n xn cn vn , xn1 an Sxn bn T n yn cn un , ∀n ≥ 1, 1.4 where {a n }, {bn }, {cn } are three real numbers sequences in 0, 1 satisfying a n bn cn 1, {an }, {bn }, {cn } are also three real numbers sequences in 0, 1 satisfying an bn cn 1, and {un } and {vn } are given bounded sequences in K. Then the authors proved that the sequence {xn } generated by 1.4 strongly converges to a common fixed point of S and T if some certain conditions are satisfied. Let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of a Banach space E and let f : K→K be a contraction with efficient λ 0 < λ < 1 such that fx − fy ≤ λx − y 1.5 for all x, y ∈ K. Shahzad and Udomene 9 studied the following implicit and explicit iterative schemes for an asymptotically nonexpansive mapping T with the sequence {kn } in a uniformly smooth Banach space: tn f xn kn tn f xn 1− kn xn xn1 1− tn n T xn , kn tn n T xn , kn 1.6 where {tn } is a sequence in 0, 1. They proved that the sequence {xn } converges strongly to the unique solution of some variational inequality if the sequence {tn } satisfies some certain conditions and the mapping T satisfies T xn − xn →0 as n→∞. Quite recently, Ceng et al. 12 introduced the following two implicit and explicit iterative schemes generated by a finite family of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings Shenghua Wang et al. 3 {Ti }N i1 with the same sequence {kn } in a reflexive Banach space with a weakly continuous duality map: 1 1 − tn f xn xn xn 1 − kn kn 1 1 − tn xn1 1 − f xn xn kn kn tn n T xn , kn rn tn n T xn , kn rn 1.7 where rn n mod N and {tn } is a sequence in 0, 1. Then they proved that if the control sequence {tn } satisfies some certain condition and Ti xn −xn →0 as n→∞ for each i 1, 2, . . . , N, then both schemes 1.7 strongly converge a common fixed point x∗ of {Ti }N i1 which solves the variational inequality I − fx∗ , J p − x∗ ≥ 0, p∈ N F Ti , 1.8 i1 where FTi denotes the set of fixed points of the mapping Ti for each i 1, 2, . . . , N. Let E be a Banach space and let E∗ be the dual space of E. Given a continuous strictly increasing function ϕ : R →R such that ϕ0 0 and limt→∞ ϕt ∞, we associate a ∗ possibly multivalued generalized duality map Jϕ : E→2E , defined as Jϕ x x∗ ∈ E∗ : x∗ x xϕ x , x∗ ϕ x 1.9 for every x ∈ E. We call the function ϕ a gauge. If ϕt t for all t ≥ 0, then we call Jϕ a normalized duality mapping and write it as J. A Banach space E is said to have a weakly continuous generalized duality map if there exists a continuous strictly increasing function ϕ : R →R such that ϕ0 0, limt→∞ ϕt ∞, and Jϕ is single valued and sequentially continuous from E with the weak topology to E∗ with the weak∗ topology. For instance, every lp -space 1 < p < ∞ has a weakly continuous generalized duality map for ϕt tp−1 . t For each t ≥ 0, let Φt 0 ϕxdx. The following property may be seen in many literatures. Property 1.1. Let E be a real Banach space and let Jϕ be the duality map associated with the gauge ϕ. Then for all x, y ∈ E and jx y ∈ Jϕ x y one holds Φ x y ≤ Φ x y, jx y . 1.10 x y2 ≤ x2 2 y, jx y 1.11 One also holds for all x, y ∈ E and jx y ∈ Jx y. 4 Fixed Point Theory and Applications Lemma 1.2 see 14. Let E be a Banach space satisfying a weakly continuous duality map and let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of E. Let T : K→K be an asymptotically nonexpansive mapping with fixed point. Then I − T is demiclosed at zero. 2. Strong convergence results In this section, let E be a reflexive Banach space with a weakly continuous duality map Jϕ , where ϕ is a gauge and let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of E. Let {Ti }∞ i1 : K→K be an infinite countable family of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings such that n T x − T n y ≤ kin x − y i i 2.1 for all x, y ∈ K, where the sequence {kin } ⊂ 1, ∞ and limn→∞ kin 1 for each i 1, 2, . . . . For each n 1, 2, . . . , let bn sup{kin | i 1, 2, . . .} and assume sup bn | n 1, 2, . . . < ∞, lim bn b < ∞. 2.2 n→∞ Taking bn max{bn , b} for each n 1, 2, . . . , obviously, we have lim bn b ≥ 1, b sup bn | n 1, 2, . . . < ∞. n→∞ 2.3 Moreover, the following inequality n T x − T n y ≤ bn x − y i i 2.4 holds for all x, y ∈ K and each i 1, 2 . . . . Take an integer r > 1 arbitrarily. For each n ≥ 1, define the mapping Sni : K→K by Sni Tn−1ri 2.5 S11 T1 , . . . , S1r Tr , S21 Tr1 , . . . , S2r T2r , . . . . 2.6 for each i 1, 2, . . . , r, that is, Shenghua Wang et al. 5 For each i 1, 2, . . . , r, let {αni } ⊂ 0, 1 be a sequence real numbers. For each n ≥ 1, define the mapping Wn of K into itself by Wn Unr αnr Snnr Unr−1 1 − αnr I, 2.7 where Un1 αn1 Snn1 1 − αn1 I, Un2 αn2 Snn2 Un1 1 − αn2 I, 2.8 .. . Unr−1 αnr−1 Snnr−1 Unr−2 1 − αnr−1 I. We call Wn a W-mapping generated by Sn1 , Sn2 , . . . , Snr and αn1 , αn2 , . . . , αnr. Let f : K→K be a λ-contraction with 0 < λ < 1/b r . Take a sequence of real numbers{tn } ⊂ 0, b such that lim tn 0, n→∞ tn < b1 − bnr λ , 1 − λbnr n ≥ 1. 2.9 Note that since λ < 1/b r , one has 0 < b1 − bnr λ/1 − λbnr ≤ b. Therefore, the sequence {tn } can be taken easily to satisfy the condition 2.9, for example, tn 1/nb1 − bnr λ/1 − λbnr . Then, we introduce an implicit iterative scheme xn 1− b − tn tn xn r1 f Wn xn r1 Wn xn , r1 bn bn bn b n ≥ 1. 2.10 By using the following lemmas, we will prove that the implicit scheme 2.10 is well defined. Lemma 2.1. Let {Ti }∞ i1 : K→K be an infinite countable family of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings with the sequences {kin } and let Wn be a W-mapping generated by 2.7 for each n φ, then ∩∞ 1, 2, . . . . If ∩∞ i1 FTi / i1 FTi ⊂ FWn for each n 1, 2, . . . . Proof. The conclusion is obtained directly from the definition of Wn . Lemma 2.2. Let {Ti }∞ i1 : K→K with the sequences {kin } and let Wn be the W-mapping generated by 2.7 for each n 1, 2, . . . . Then one holds Wn x − Wn y ≤ bnr x − y for all n ≥ 1 and all x, y ∈ K. 2.11 6 Fixed Point Theory and Applications Proof. For any x, y ∈ K all n ≥ 1, we first see noting that bn ≥ 1 Un1 x − Un1 y αn1 Sn 1 − αn1 I x − αn1 Sn 1 − αn1 I y n1 n1 ≤ αn1 Snn1 x − Snn1 y 1 − αn1 x − y n n αn1 Tn−1r1 x − Tn−1r1 y 1 − αn1 x − y ≤ αn1 kn−1r1n x − y 1 − αn1 x − y ≤ αn1 bn x − y 1 − αn1 x − y ≤ αn1 bn x − y 1 − αn1 bn x − y bn x − y, Un2 x − Un2 y αn2 Sn Un1 1 − αn2 I x − αn2 Sn Un1 1 − αn2 I y n2 n2 ≤ αn2 Snn2 Un1 x − Snn2 Un1 y 1 − αn2 x − y n n αn2 Tn−1r2 Un1 x − Tn−1r2 Un1 y 1 − αn2 x − y ≤ αn2 kn−1r2n Un1 x − Un1 y 1 − αn2 x − y ≤ αn2 bn Un1 x − Un1 y 1 − αn2 x − y ≤ αn2 bn2 x − y 1 − αn1 bn2 x − y 2.12 bn2 x − y. Similarly, for each i 3, . . . , r − 1, we have Uni x − Uni y ≤ bni x − y. 2.13 Hence, Wn x − Wn y αnr Snnr Un r−1 1 − αnr I x − αnr Snnr Un r−1 1 − αnr I y ≤ αnr Snnr Un r−1 x − Snnr Un r−1 y 1 − αnr x − y ≤ bnr x 2.14 − y. This completes the proof. Now we prove that the implicit scheme 2.10 is well defined. Since 0 < tn < b1 − bnr λ/1 − λbnr , we obtain b b − tn tn λ < 1. bn bn 2.15 tn b − tn x r1 f Wn x r1 Wn x r1 bn bn bn 2.16 0<1− bnr1 Hence, the mapping x → T x : 1− b Shenghua Wang et al. 7 is a contraction on K. In fact, to see this, taking any x, y ∈ K, by Lemma 2.2 we have b tn b − tn 1 − T x − T y x − f W y x − W y x − y fW W n n n n bnr1 bnr1 bnr1 b − tn λbnr b tn ≤ 1 − r1 x − y x − y r1 bnr x − y r1 bn bn bn 2.17 b − tn tn b x − y λ 1 − r1 b b bn n n ≤ x − y, which implies that the implicit scheme 2.10 is well defined. For the implicit scheme 2.10, we have strong convergence as follows. Theorem 2.3. Assume 2.9, FT ∩∞ φ and limn→∞ xn −Ti xn 0 for each i 1, 2, . . . . i1 FTi / Then {xn } converges strongly to a common fixed point x ∈ FT , where x solves the variational inequality I − fx, Jp − x ≥ 0, p ∈ FT . 2.18 Proof. First, we prove that {xn } is bounded. By using Property 1.1, Lemmas 2.1, 2.2, for any z ∈ FT , we have noting 0 < 1 − b/bnr1 b − tn /bn λ tn /bn < 1 b 1 − xn − z xn − z r1 bn 2 b − tn r1 fz − z bn b 1 − ≤ xn − z r1 bn 2 b − tn tn f Wn xn − fz r1 Wn xn − z r1 bn bn 2 b − tn tn f Wn xn − fz r1 Wn xn − z bnr1 bn 2b − tn fz − z, jxn − z r1 bn b − tn 2 tn b ≤ 1 − r1 xn − z r1 f Wn xn − f Wn z r1 Wn xn − Wn z bn bn bn 2b − tn fz − z, j xn − z r1 bn b b − tn λ tn 2 xn − z2 2b − tn fz − z, j xn − z ≤ 1 − r1 r1 bn bn bn bn b b − tn λ tn 2b − tn 2 ≤ 1 − r1 xn − z fz − z, j xn − z r1 b b bn bn n n 2 2b − tn 1 − ηn xn − z fz − z, j xn − z , r1 bn 2.19 8 Fixed Point Theory and Applications where ηn b bnr1 − b − tn tn λ− > 0. bn bn 2.20 It follows from 2.19 that xn − z2 ≤ 2b − tn fz − z, jxn − z . ηn bnr1 2.21 Since limn→∞ bn b, limn→∞ tn 0, we have lim b − tn n→∞ η br1 n n 1 . 1 − λbr 2.22 Hence, {xn } is bounded. Now we prove that {xn } strongly converges to a common fixed point x ∈ FT . To see this, we assume that x is a weak limit point of {xn } and a subsequence {xnj } of {xn } converges weakly to x. Then by the assumption of the theorem and Lemma 1.2, we have x ∈ FTi for every i 1, 2, . . . . In 2.21, replacing xn with xnj and z with x, respectively, and then taking the limit as j→∞, we obtain by the weak continuity of the duality map J lim xnj − x 0. 2.23 j→∞ Therefore, xnj →x. We further show that x solves the variational inequality I − fx, Jp − x ≥ 0, p ∈ FT . 2.24 To see this result, taking any p ∈ FT , then by using Property 1.1, Lemmas 2.1 and 2.2 we compute Φ xn − p b − tn b − tn b tn 1 − Φ x x W f W − x − p − p x − p x n n n n n n n bnr1 bnr1 bnr1 bnr1 tn b − tn tn ≤Φ 1 − r1 xn − p r1 Wn xn − p r1 f Wn xn − xn , Jϕ xn − p bn bn bn b − tn tn ≤ 1 − r1 tn Φ xn − p r1 fWn xn − xn , Jϕ xn − p , bn bn 2.25 Shenghua Wang et al. 9 which implies that br1 − 1tn Φ xn − p . xn − f Wn xn , Jϕ xn − p ≤ n b − tn 2.26 Now in 2.26, replacing xn with xnj and noting limn→∞ bn b and limn→∞ tn 0, we obtain x − fx, Jϕ x − p lim xnj − f Wnj xnj , Jϕ xnj − p j→∞ ≤ lim sup bnr1 − 1tnj j j→∞ b − tnj Φ xnj − p 0, 2.27 which implies that x is a solution to 2.24. Finally, we prove that the sequence {xn } strongly converges to x. It suffices to prove that the variational inequality 2.24 can have only one solution. To see this, assuming that both u ∈ FT and v ∈ FT are solutions to 2.24, we have I − fu, Ju − v ≤ 0, I − fv, Jv − u ≤ 0. 2.28 I − fu − I − fv, Ju − v ≤ 0. 2.29 Adding them yields However, since f is a λ-contraction, we have that 1 − λu − v2 ≤ I − fu − I − fv, Ju − v , 2.30 which implies that u v. This completes the proof. Remark 2.4. In Theorem 2.3, the condition that limn→∞ Ti xn − xn 0 for each i 1, 2, . . . is necessary see 9, 12. This theorem shows that if for each n 1, 2, . . ., the supremum of the sequence {kin }, that is, sup{kin | i 1, 2, . . .}, is finite and the limit of the sequence sup {kin | i 1, 2, . . .}∞ n1 exists, then by choosing the contraction constant λ and the control sequence {tn } we can obtain the common fixed point of {Ti }∞ i1 . Corollary 2.5. Let {Ti }N i1 K→K be a finite family of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings with the sequences {kin } and let Wn be a W-mapping generated by T1 , T2 , . . . , TN and αn1 , αn2 , . . . , αnN for each n 1, 2, . . . . Let the sequence {tn } ⊂ 0, 1 and satisfy tn < 1−knN λ/1−λknN and tn →0, where kn max{k1n , k2n , . . . , kNn } for each n 1, 2, . . . . Assume that k sup{kn | n 1, 2, . . .} < ∞. Let f be a contraction with λ0 < λ < 1/kN . Consider the implicit iterative scheme xn 1− 1 knN1 xn 1 − tn tn f Wn xn N1 Wn xn . knN1 kn 2.31 10 Fixed Point Theory and Applications N φ and Ti xn − xn →0 as n→∞ for each i 1, 2, . . . , N, If {Ti }N i1 satisfy the condition ∩i1 FTi / then {xn } converges strongly to a common fixed point x ∈ ∩N i1 FTi , where x solves the variational inequality I − fx, Jp − x ≥ 0, p∈ N F Ti . 2.32 i1 Proof. In Theorem 2.3, take bn kn , b limn→∞ kn 1, b k, and r N. Then, this corollary can obtained directly from Theorem 2.3.
