We prove convergence theorems of modified Ishikawa iterative sequence for two nonexpansive semigroups in Hilbert spaces by the two hybrid methods. Our results improve and extend the corresponding results announced by Saejung 2008 and some others. 1. Introduction Let C be a subset of real Hilbert spaces H with the inner product ·, · and the norm · . T : C → C is called a nonexpansive mapping if T x − T y ≤ x − y ∀x, y ∈ C. 1.1 We denote by FT the set of fixed points of T , that is, FT {x ∈ C : x T x}. Let {T t : t ≥ 0} be a family of mappings from a subset C of H into itself. We call it a nonexpansive semigroup on C if the following conditions are satisfied: i T 0x x for all x ∈ C; ii T s t T sT t for all s, t ≥ 0; iii for each x ∈ C the mapping t → T tx is continuous; iv T tx − T ty ≤ x − y for all x, y ∈ C and t ≥ 0. 2 Fixed Point Theory and Applications The Mann’s iterative algorithm was introduced by Mann 1 in 1953. This iterative process is now known as Mann’s iterative process, which is defined as xn1 αn xn 1 − αn T xn , n ≥ 0, 1.2 where the initial guess x0 is taken in C arbitrarily and the sequence {αn }∞ n0 is in the interval 0, 1. In 1967, Halpern 2 first introduced the following iterative scheme: x0 u ∈ C chosen arbitrarily, xn1 αn u 1 − αn T xn , 1.3 see also Browder 3. He pointed out that the conditions limn → ∞ αn 0 and ∞ n1 αn ∞ are necessary in the sence that, if the iteration 1.3 converges to a fixed point of T , then these conditions must be satisfied. On the other hand, in 2002, Suzuki 4 was the first to introduce the following implicit iteration process in Hilbert spaces: xn αn u 1 − αn T tn xn , n ≥ 1, 1.4 for the nonexpansive semigroup. In 2005, Xu 5 established a Banach space version of the sequence 1.4 of Suzuki 4. In 2007, Chen and He 6 studied the viscosity approximation process for a nonexpansive semigroup and prove another strong convergence theorem for a nonexpansive semigroup in Banach spaces, which is defined by xn1 αn fxn 1 − αn T tn xn , ∀n ∈ N, 1.5 where f : C → C is a fixed contractive mapping. Recently He and Chen 7 is proved a strong convergence theorem for nonexpansive semigroups in Hilbert spaces by hybrid method in the mathematical programming. Very recently, Saejung 8 proved a convergence theorem by the new iterative method introduced by Takahashi et al. 9 without Bochner integrals for a nonexpansive semigroup {T t : t ≥ 0} ∅ in Hilbert spaces: with F : ∞ t0 FT t / x0 ∈ H taken arbitrary, C1 C, x1 PC1 x0 , yn αn xn 1 − αn T tn xn , Cn1 z ∈ Cn : yn − z ≤ xn − z , xn1 PCn1 x0 , where PC denotes the metric projection from H onto a closed convex subset C of H. 1.6 Fixed Point Theory and Applications 3 In 1974, Ishikawa 10 introduced a new iterative scheme, which is defined recursively by yn βn xn 1 − βn T xn , xn1 αn xn 1 − αn T yn , 1.7 where the initial guess x0 is taken in C arbitrarily and the sequences {αn } and {βn } are in the interval 0, 1. In this paper, motivated by the iterative sequences 1.6 given by Saejung in 8 and Ishikawa 10, we introduce the modified Ishikawa iterative scheme for two nonexpansive semigroups in Hilbert spaces. Further, we obtain strong convergence theorems by using the hybrid methods. This result extends and improves the result of Saejung 8 and some others. 2. Preliminaries This section collects some lemmas which will be used in the proofs for the main results in the next section. It is known that every Hilbert space H satisfies the Opial’s condition 11, that is, lim infxn − x < lim infxn − y, n→∞ n→∞ ∀y ∈ X, y / x. 2.1 Recall that the metric nearest point projection PC from a Hilbert space H to a closed convex subset C of H is defined as follows. Given x ∈ H, PC x is the only point in C with the property x − PC x inf x − y : y ∈ C . 2.2 PC x is characterized as follows. Lemma 2.1. Let H be a real Hilbert space, C a closed convex subset of H. Given x ∈ H and y ∈ C. Then y PC x if and only if there holds the inequality x − y, y − z ≥ 0, ∀z ∈ C. 2.3 Lemma 2.2. There holds the identity in a Hilbert space H λx 1 − λy2 λx2 1 − λy2 − λ1 − λx − y2 for all x, y ∈ H and λ ∈ 0, 1. 2.4 4 Fixed Point Theory and Applications Lemma 2.3 see 12, Lemma 1. Let {tn } be a real sequence and let τ be a real number such that lim infn tn ≤ τ ≤ lim supn tn . Suppose that either of the following holds: i lim supn tn1 − tn ≤ 0 or ii lim infn tn1 − tn ≥ 0, then τ is a cluster point of {tn }. Moreover, for ε > 0, k, m ∈ N, there exists m0 ≥ m such that |tj − τ| < ε for every integer j with m0 ≤ j ≤ m0 k. 3. Main Results 3.1. The Shrinking Projection Method In this section, we prove strong convergence of an iterative sequence generated by the shrinking hybrid projection method in mathematical programming. Theorem 3.1. Let C be a closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let {T t : t ≥ 0} and {St : t ≥ 0} be nonexpansive semigroups on C with a nonempty common fixed point set F, that ∞ is, F : ∞ / ∅. Let {αn } ⊂ 0, a ⊂ 0, 1, {βn } ⊂ b, c ⊂ 0, 1 and t0 FT t ∩ t0 FSt {tn } be the sequences such that lim infn → ∞ tn 0, lim supn → ∞ tn > 0, and limn → ∞ tn1 − tn 0. Suppose that {xn } is a sequence generated by the following iterative scheme: x0 ∈ H taken arbitrary, C1 C, x1 PC1 x0 , zn βn xn 1 − βn T tn xn , Cn1 3.1 yn αn xn 1 − αn Stn zn , u ∈ Cn : yn − u ≤ xn − u , xn1 PCn1 x0 , then {xn } converges strongly to PF x0 . Proof. We first show that Cn1 is closed and convex for each n ≥ 0. From the definition of Cn1 it is obvious that Cn1 is closed for each n ≥ 0. We show that Cn1 is convex for any n ≥ 0. Since yn − u ≤ xn − u ⇐⇒ 2xn − yn , u ≤ xn 2 − yn 2 , 3.2 Fixed Point Theory and Applications 5 and hence Cn1 is convex. Next we show that F ⊂ Cn1 for all n ≥ 0. Let p ∈ F, then we have zn − p βn xn 1 − βn T tn xn − p ≤ βn xn − p 1 − βn T tn xn − p ≤ βn xn − p 1 − βn xn − p ≤ xn − p, 3.3 yn − p αn xn 1 − αn Stn zn − p ≤ αn xn − p 1 − αn Stn zn − p ≤ αn xn − p 1 − αn zn − p. 3.4 Substituting 3.3 into 3.4, we have yn − p ≤ xn − p. 3.5 This means that p ∈ Cn1 for all n ≥ 0. Thus, {xn } is well defined. Since xn PCn x0 and xn1 ∈ Cn1 ⊂ Cn , we get x0 − xn , xn − xn1 ≥ 0 ∀n ∈ N. 3.6 Consequently, 0 ≤ x0 − xn , xn − xn1 x0 − xn , xn − x0 x0 − xn1 −xn − x0 , xn − x0 x0 − xn , x0 − xn1 3.7 ≤ −xn − x0 2 x0 − xn x0 − xn1 , for n ∈ N. This implies that x0 − xn ≤ x0 − xn1 ∀n ∈ N. 3.8 Therefore, {x0 − xn } is nondecreasing. From xn PCn x0 , we also have x0 − xn , xn − p ≥ 0, for all p ∈ Cn . Since F ⊆ Cn , we get x0 − xn , xn − p ≥ 0 ∀p ∈ F. 3.9 6 Fixed Point Theory and Applications Thus, for p ∈ F, we obtain 0 ≤ x0 − xn , xn − p −xn − x0 , xn − x0 x0 − xn , x0 − p ≤ −xn − x0 2 x0 − xn x0 − p. 3.10 Thus, xn − x0 ≤ x0 − p, for all p ∈ F and n ∈ N. Then limn → ∞ xn − x0 exists and {xn } is bounded. Next, we show that xn1 − xn → 0 as n → ∞. From 3.6 we have xn − xn1 2 xn − x0 x0 − xn1 2 xn − x0 2 2xn − x0 , x0 − xn1 x0 − xn1 2 xn − x0 2 2xn − x0 , x0 − xn xn − xn1 x0 − xn1 2 xn − x0 2 − 2x0 − xn , x0 − xn − 2x0 − xn , xn − xn1 x0 − xn1 2 3.11 ≤ xn − x0 2 − 2xn − x0 2 x0 − xn1 2 −xn − x0 2 x0 − xn1 2 . Since limn → ∞ xn − x0 exists, then lim xn − xn1 0. 3.12 n→∞ Further, as in the proof of 8, page 3, we have {xn } which is a Cauchy sequence. So, we have xn z. By definition of yn , we have yn − xn 1 − αn Stn zn − xn . 3.13 Since xn1 ∈ Cn1 and 3.12, we obtain Stn zn − xn ≤ 1 yn − xn 1 − αn 1 yn − xn1 xn1 − xn 1 − αn 1 ≤ xn − xn1 xn1 − xn 1 − αn ≤ 2 xn − xn1 −→ 0 1 − αn We now show that T tn xn − xn → 0. as n −→ ∞. 3.14 Fixed Point Theory and Applications 7 For p ∈ F, we have xn − p ≤ xn − Stn zn ≤ Stn zn − p. This implies that 0 ≤ xn − p − zn − p ≤ xn − Stn zn → 0 and hence xn − p2 − zn − p2 → 0. Moreover, since zn − p2 βn xn − p2 1 − βn T tn xn − p2 − βn 1 − βn xn − T tn xn 2 , 3.15 we have bcxn − T tn xn 2 ≤ βn 1 − βn xn − T tn xn 2 2 2 2 ≤ βn xn − p 1 − βn T tn xn − p − zn − p 2 2 ≤ xn − p − zn − p −→ 0. 3.16 And since Stn is a nonexpansive mapping, we obtain xn − Stn xn ≤ xn − Stn zn Stn zn − Stn xn , ≤ xn − Stn zn zn − xn . 3.17 Since zn − xn 1 − βn T tn xn − xn → 0 and xn − Stn zn → 0, we obtain lim xn − Stn xn 0. 3.18 n→∞ As in the proof of 12, Theorem 4, by Lemma 2.3, we can choose a sequence {tnk } of positive real numbers such that tnk −→ 0, 1 xnk − T tnk xnk −→ 0, tnk as k −→ ∞. 3.19 1 xnk − Stnk xnk −→ 0, tnk as k −→ ∞. 3.20 In similar way, we also have tnk −→ 0, 8 Fixed Point Theory and Applications Next, we show that z ∈ F. To see this, we fix t > 0, xnk − T tz ≤ t/tnk −1 T jtn xn − T j 1 tn xn k k k k j0 t t t T tnk xnk − T tnk z T tnk z − T tz t t t ≤ ≤ t tnk t tnk nk nk xnk − T tnk xnk xnk nk t − z T t − tnk z − z tnk 3.21 xnk − T tnk xnk xnk − z sup{T sz − z : 0 ≤ s ≤ tnk }. As xnk → z and 3.19, we obtain xnk → T tz and so T tz z. Similarly, we have Stz z. Thus z ∈ F. Finally, we show that z PF x0 . Since F ⊂ Cn1 and xn1 PCn1 x0 , xn1 − x0 ≤ q − x0 ∀n ∈ N, q ∈ F. 3.22 But xn → z as n → ∞, we have z − x0 ≤ q − x0 ∀q ∈ F. 3.23 Hence z PF x0 as required. This completes the proof. Corollary 3.2. Let C be a closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let {T t : t ≥ 0} be nonexpansive semigroups on C with a nonempty common fixed point set F, that is, F : ∞ / ∅. Let {αn } ⊂ 0, a ⊂ 0, 1, {βn } ⊂ b, c ⊂ 0, 1 and {tn } be the sequences such t0 FT t that lim infn → ∞ tn 0, lim supn → ∞ tn > 0, and limn → ∞ tn1 − tn 0. Suppose that {xn } is a sequence iteratively generated by the following iterative scheme: x0 ∈ H taken arbitrary, C1 C, x1 PC1 x0 , Cn1 yn αn xn 1 − αn T tn zn , zn βn xn 1 − βn T tn xn , u ∈ Cn : yn − u ≤ xn − u , xn1 PCn1 x0 , then {xn } converges strongly to PF x0 . Proof. Putting Stn T tn , in Theorem 3.1, we obtain the conclusion immediately. 3.24 Fixed Point Theory and Applications 9 Corollary 3.3 see 8, Theorem 2.1. Let C be a closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let {T t : t ≥ 0} be a nonexpansive semigroups on C with a nonempty common fixed point set ∅. Let {αn } ⊂ 0, a ⊂ 0, 1 and {tn } be the sequences such that F, that is, F : ∞ t0 FT t / lim infn → ∞ tn 0, lim supn → ∞ tn > 0, and limn → ∞ tn1 − tn 0. Suppose that {xn } is a sequence iteratively generated by the following iterative scheme: x0 ∈ H taken arbitrary, C1 C, x1 PC1 x0 , Cn1 zn αn xn 1 − αn T tn xn , u ∈ Cn : yn − u ≤ xn − u , 3.25 xn1 PCn1 x0 , then xn → PF x0 . Proof. If Stn T tn for all n ∈ N and T t I for every t > 0 in Theorem 3.1 then 3.1 reduced to 3.25. By using Theorem 3.1, we get the following conclusion. 3.2. The CQ Hybrid Method In this section, we consider the modified Ishikawa iterative scheme computing by the CQ hybrid method 13–15. We use the same idea as Saejung’s Theorem 2.2 in 8 and our Theorem 3.1 to obtain the following result and the proof is omitted. Theorem 3.4. Let C be a closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let {T t : t ≥ 0} and {St : t ≥ 0} be nonexpansive semigroups on C with a nonempty common fixed point set F, that ∞ is, F : ∞ / ∅. Let {αn } ⊂ 0, a ⊂ 0, 1, {βn } ⊂ b, c ⊂ 0, 1 and t0 FT t ∩ t0 FSt {tn } be the sequences such that lim infn → ∞ tn 0, lim supn → ∞ tn > 0, and limn → ∞ tn1 − tn 0. Suppose that {xn } is a sequence generated by the following iterative scheme: x0 ∈ H taken arbitrary, yn αn xn 1 − αn Stn zn , zn βn xn 1 − βn T tn xn , Cn u ∈ C : yn − u ≤ xn − u , 3.26 Qn {u ∈ C : xn − x0 , u − xn ≥ 0}, xn1 PCn ∩Qn x0 , then {xn } converges strongly to PF x0 . Proof. First, we show that both Cn and Qn are closed and convex, and Cn ∩ Qn / ∅ for all n ∈ N ∪ {0}. It follows easily from the definition that Cn and Qn are just intersection of C and the half-spaces see also 9. As in the proof of the preceding theorem, we have F ⊂ Cn for all n ∈ N ∪ {0}. Clearly, F ⊂ C Q0 . Suppose that F ⊂ Qk for some k ∈ N ∪ {0}, 10 Fixed Point Theory and Applications we have p ∈ Ck ∩ Qk . In particular, xk1 − x0 , p − xk1 ≥ 0, that is, p ∈ Qk1 . It follows from the induction that F ⊂ Qn for all n ∈ N ∪ {0}. This proves the claim. Next, we show that xn − T tn xn → 0, and xn − Stn xn → 0. We first claim that xn1 − xn → 0. Indeed, as xn1 ∈ Qn and xn PQn x0 , xn − x0 ≤ xn1 − x0 ∀n ∈ N. 3.27 For fixed z ∈ F. It follows from F ⊂ Qn for all n ∈ N that xn − x0 ≤ z − x0 ∀n ∈ N. 3.28 This implies that sequence {xn } is bounded and lim xn − x0 exists. 3.29 xn1 − xn , xn − x0 ≥ 0. 3.30 n→∞ Notice that This implies that xn1 − xn 2 xn1 − x0 2 − 2xn1 − xn , xn − x0 − x0 − xn 2 ≤ xn1 − x0 2 − xn − x0 2 −→ 0. 3.31 By using the same argument of Saejung 8, Theorem 2.2, page 6 and in the proof of Theorem 3.1, we have T tn xn − xn → 0 and Stn xn − xn → 0. And we can choose a subsequence {nk } of {n} such that xnk z ∈ C, tnk → 0, 1/tnk xnk − T tnk xnk → 0 and 1/tnk xnk − Stnk xnk → 0 as k → ∞. From 3.21, we obtain lim supxnk − T tz ≤ lim supxnk − z, k→∞ k→∞ lim supxnk − Stz ≤ lim supxnk − z. k→∞ 3.32 k→∞ By the Opial’s condition of H, we have z T tz and z Stz for all t > 0, that is, z ∈ F. We note that x0 − PF x0 ≤ x0 − z ≤ lim infx0 − xnk ≤ lim supx0 − xnk ≤ x0 − PF x0 . k→∞ k→∞ 3.33 This implies that lim x0 − xnk x0 − PF x0 x0 − z. k→∞ 3.34 Fixed Point Theory and Applications 11 Therefore, xnk −→ PF x0 z, as k −→ ∞. 3.35 Hence the whole sequence must converge to PF x0 z, as required. This completes the proof. Corollary 3.5. Let C be a closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let {T t : t ≥ 0} be nonexpansive semigroups on C with a nonempty common fixed point set F, that is, F : ∞ ∅. Let {αn } ⊂ 0, a ⊂ 0, 1, {βn } ⊂ b, c ⊂ 0, 1 and {tn } be the sequences such that t0 FT t / lim infn → ∞ tn 0, lim supn → ∞ tn > 0, and limn → ∞ tn1 − tn 0. Suppose that {xn } is a sequence iteratively generated by the following iterative scheme: x0 ∈ H taken arbitrary, yn αn xn 1 − αn T tn zn , zn βn xn 1 − βn T tn xn , Cn u ∈ C : yn − u ≤ xn − u , 3.36 Qn {u ∈ C : xn − x0 , u − xn ≥ 0}, xn1 PCn ∩Qn x0 , then {xn } converges strongly to PF x0 . Proof. If Stn T tn for all n ∈ N ∪ {0}, in Theorem 3.4 then 3.26 reduced to 3.36. So, we obtain the result immediately. We also deduce the following corollary. Corollary 3.6 see 8, Theorem 2.2. Let C be a closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let {T t : t ≥ 0} be a nonexpansive semigroups on C with a nonempty common fixed point set ∅. Let {αn } ⊂ 0, a ⊂ 0, 1 and {tn } be the sequences such that F, that is, F : ∞ t0 FT t / lim infn → ∞ tn 0, lim supn → ∞ tn > 0 and limn → ∞ tn1 − tn 0. Suppose that {xn } is a sequence iteratively generated by the following iterative scheme: x0 ∈ H taken arbitrary, zn αn xn 1 − αn T tn xn , Cn u ∈ C : yn − u ≤ xn − u , Qn {u ∈ C : xn − x0 , u − xn ≥ 0}, xn1 PCn ∩Qn x0 , then xn → PF x0 . 3.37 12 Fixed Point Theory and Applications Acknowledgments The authors would like to thank the editors and the anonymous referees for their valuable suggestions which help to improve this paper.
