Denote by PC x the metric projection from x ∈ H onto C. Let T be a nonexpansive mapping on C, i.e., T : C → C and kT x − T yk ≤ kx − yk for all x, y ∈ C. We use F (T ) to denote the set of fixed points of T , i.e., F (T ) = {x ∈ C : x = T x}. We know that F (T ) is nonempty, if C is bounded, for more details see [1]. Let {T (t) : t > 0} be a nonexpansive semigroup on C, that is, (1) for each t > 0, T (t) is a nonexpansive mapping on C; (2) T (0)x = x for all x ∈ C; (3) T (t1 + t2 ) = T (t1 ) ◦ T (t2 ) for all t1 , t2 > 0; and (4) for each x ∈ C, the mapping T (.)x from (0, ∞) into C is continuous. Denote by F = ∩t>0 F (T (t)) the set of common fixed points for the semigroup {T (t) : t > 0}. We know that F is a closed convex subset in H and F 6= ∅ if C is compact (see, [2]). Let Ci , i = 1, 2, be two closed and convex subsets in H. Let Ti and {Ti (t) : t > 0}, i = 1, 2, be two nonexpansive mappings and semigroups on Ci , respectively. The problems studied in this paper is to find two elements p ∈ F := F (T1 ) ∩ F (T2 ) (1.1) q ∈ F1,2 := F1 ∩ F2 , (1.2) and where Fi = ∩t>0 F (Ti (t)). Assume that F and F1,2 are not empty. Some particular cases of (1.1) and (1.2) are the following: (i) when T1 = T2 = I, the identity mapping in H, (1.1) is the convex feasibility problem studied in [3]. (ii) when C1 = C2 = C, problems (1.1) and (1.2) are considered in [4]-[6]. For finding a fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping T on C, in 1953, Mann [7] proposed the following method: x0 ∈ C any element, xn+1 = αn xn + (1 − αn )T xn , n ≥ 0, (1.3) 25 Nguyen Buong and Nguyen Duc Lang that converges only weakly, in general (see [8] for an example). In 1967, Halpern [9] firstly proposed the following iteration process: xn+1 = βn u + (1 − βn )T xn , n ≥ 0, (1.4) where u, x0 are two fixed elements in C and {βn } ⊂ (0, 1). He pointed out P that the conditions limn→∞ βn = 0 and ∞ n=0 βn = ∞ are necessary in the sense that, if the iteration (1.4) converges to a fixed point of T , then these conditions must be satisfied. Further, the iteration method was investigated by Lions [10], Reich [11], Wittmann [12] and Song [13]. Recently, Alber [14] proposed the following descent-like method xn+1 = PC (xn − µn [xn − T xn ]), n ≥ 0, (1.5) and proved that if {µn } : µn > 0, µn → 0, as n → ∞ and {xn } is bounded, then: (i) there exists a weak accumulation point x̃ ∈ C of {xn }; (ii) all weak accumulation points of {xn } belong to F (T ); and (iii) if F (T ) is a singleton, i.e., F (T ) = {x̃}, then {xn } converges weakly to x̃. To obtain strong convergence for (1.3), Nakajo and Takahashi [15] introduced the hybrid Mann’s iteration method: x0 ∈ C, yn = αn xn + (1 − αn )T xn , Cn = {z ∈ C : kyn − zk ≤ kxn − zk}, (1.6) Qn = {z ∈ C : hxn − z, x0 − xn i ≥ 0}, xn+1 = PCn ∩Qn x0 , where {αn } ⊂ [0, a] for some a ∈ [0, 1). They showed that {xn } defined by (1.6) converges strongly to PF (T ) x0 as n → ∞. Recently, Yanes and Xu [16] adapted the iteration process (1.4) as follows: x0 ∈ C any element, yn = βn x0 + (1 − βn )T xn , Cn = {z ∈ C : kyn − zk2 ≤ kxn − zk2 + βn (kx0 k2 + 2hxn − x0 , zi)}, Qn = {z ∈ C : hxn − z, x0 − xn i ≥ 0}, xn+1 = PCn ∩Qn x0 . (1.7) 26 Hybrid descent-like halpern iteration methods... They proved that if T is a nonexpansive mapping on a closed convex subset C with F (T ) 6= ∅ and the sequence {βn } ⊂ (0, 1) is chosen such that limn→∞ βn = 0, then the sequence {xn } defined by (1.7) converges strongly to PF (T ) x0 as n → ∞. For finding an element p ∈ F, Nakajo and Takahashi [15] also introduced an iteration procedure as follows: x0 ∈ C any element, 1 yn = αn xn + (1 − αn ) tn Z tn T (s)xn ds, 0 Cn = {z ∈ C : kyn − zk ≤ kxn − zk}, (1.8) Qn = {z ∈ C : hxn − z, x0 − xn i ≥ 0}, xn+1 = PCn ∩Qn x0 , n ≥ 0, where αn ∈ [0,a] for some a ∈ [0,1) and {tn } is a positive real number divergent sequence. Under the conditions on {αn } and {tn }, the sequence {xn } defined by (1.8) converges strongly to PF x0 . If C ≡ H, then Cn and Qn in (1.6)-(1.8) are two halfspaces. So, the projection xn+1 onto Cn ∩ Qn in these methods can be found by an explicit formula [17]. Clearly, if C is a proper subset of H, then Cn and Qn in (1.6)(1.8) are not two halfspaces. Then, the following problem is posed: how to construct the closed convex subsets Cn and Qn and if we can express xn+1 of (1.6)-(1.8) in a similar form as in [17]? This problem is solved very recently in [18]-[20]. In this works, Cn and Qn are replaced by two halfspaces and yn is the right hand side of (1.5) with a modification. In this paper, motivated by (1.5), (1.7) and [14], [15], to solve problems (1.1) and (1.2) we introduce the following new iteration processes: x0 ∈ H any element, zn = xn − µn (xn − T1 PC1 xn ), yn = βn x0 + (1 − βn )T2 PC2 zn , Hn = {z ∈ H : kyn − zk2 ≤ kxn − zk2 + βn (kx0 k2 + 2hxn − x0 , zi)}, Wn = {z ∈ H : hxn − z, x0 − xn i ≥ 0}, xn+1 = PHn ∩Wn x0 , n ≥ 0; (1.9) 27 Nguyen Buong and Nguyen Duc Lang and x0 ∈ H any element, Z 1 tn z n = xn − µ n xn − T1 (s)PC1 xn ds , tn 0 Z 1 tn T2 (s)PC2 zn ds, yn = βn x0 + (1 − βn ) tn 0 Hn = {z ∈ H : kyn − zk2 ≤ kxn − zk2 (1.10) + βn (kx0 k2 + 2hxn − x0 , zi)}, Wn = {z ∈ H : hxn − z, x0 − xn i ≥ 0}, xn+1 = PHn ∩Wn x0 , n ≥ 0. We shall prove the strong convergence of the sequences {xn }, {yn } and {zn } defined by (1.9) and (1.10) to some elements p and q in sections 2 and 3, respectively. Below, the symbols * and → denote weak and strong convergence, respectively. 2 Strong convergence to a common fixed point of two nonexpansive mappings We formulate the following facts needed in the proof of our results. Lemma 2.1 [21]. Let H be a real Hilbert. There holds the following identity: kλx + (1 − λ)yk2 = λkxk2 + (1 − λ)kyk2 − λ(1 − λ)kx − yk2 . Lemma 2.2 [16]. Let C be a nonempty, closed and convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. For any x ∈ H, there exists a unique z ∈ C such that kz − xk ≤ ky − xk for all y ∈ C, and z = PC x if and only if hz − x, y − zi ≥ 0 for all y ∈ C. Lemma 2.3. (Demiclosedness principle) [21]. If C is a nonempty, closed and convex subset of a real Hilbert space H, T is a nonexpansive mapping on C, {xn } is a sequence in C such that xn * x and xn − T xn → 0, then x − T x = 0. Lemma 2.4 [22]. Every Hilbert space H has Randon-Riesz property or Kadec- 28 Hybrid descent-like halpern iteration methods... Klee property, that is, for a sequence {xn } ⊂ H with xn * x and kxn k → kxk, then there holds xn → x. Now, we are in a position to prove the following result. Theorem 2.5. Let C1 and C2 be two nonempty, closed and convex subsets in a real Hilbert space H and let T1 and T2 be two nonexpansive mappings on C1 and C2 , respectively, such that F := F (T1 ) ∩ F (T2 ) 6= ∅. Assume that {µn } and {βn } are sequences in [0,1] such that µn ∈ (a, b) for some a, b ∈ (0, 1) and βn → 0. Then, the sequences {xn }, {zn } and {yn }, defined by (1.9), converge strongly to the same point u0 = PF x0 , as n → ∞. Proof. First, note that kyn − zk2 ≤ kxn − zk2 + βn (kx0 k2 + 2hxn − x0 , zi) is equivalent to βn 1 h(1 − βn )xn + βn x0 − yn , zi ≤ hxn − yn , xn i − kyn − xn k2 + kx0 k2 . 2 2 Thus, Hn is a halfspace. It is clear that F (T ) = F (T PC ) := {p ∈ H : T PC p = p} for any mapping T from C into C. So, we have that F = F (T̃1 ) ∩ F (T̃2 ) where T̃i = Ti PCi , i = 1, 2, and T̃i , i = 1, 2, are also two nonexpansive mappings on H. Hence, by (1.9) and Lemma 2.1, we obtain for any p ∈ F that kzn − pk2 = k(1 − µn )(xn − p) + µn (T̃1 xn − p)k2 = (1 − µn )kxn − pk2 + µn kT̃1 xn − pk2 − (1 − µn )µn kxn − T̃1 xn k2 ≤ (1 − µn )kxn − pk2 + µn kxn − pk2 − (1 − µn )µn kxn − T̃1 xn k2 ≤ kxn − pk2 − (1 − µn )µn kxn − T̃1 xn k2 ≤ kxn − pk2 . (2.1) Nguyen Buong and Nguyen Duc Lang 29 By the similar argument and the convexity of k.k2 , we also obtain kyn − pk2 = kβn x0 + (1 − βn )T̃2 zn − pk2 ≤ βn kx0 − pk2 + (1 − βn )kT̃2 zn − T̃2 pk2 ≤ βn kx0 − pk2 + (1 − βn )kzn − pk2 ≤ βn kx0 − pk2 + (1 − βn )kxn − pk2 = kxn − pk2 + βn (kx0 − pk2 − kxn − pk2 ) = kxn − pk2 + βn (kx0 k2 + 2hxn − x0 , pi). Therefore, p ∈ Hn for all n ≥ 0. It means that F (T ) ⊂ Hn for all n ≥ 0. Next, we show by mathematical induction that F (T ) ⊂ Hn ∩ Wn for each n ≥ 0. For n = 0, we have W0 = H, and hence F (T ) ⊂ H0 ∩ W0 . Suppose that xi is given and F (T ) ⊂ Hi ∩ Wi for some i > 0. There exists a unique element xi+1 ∈ Hi ∩ Wi such that xi+1 = PHi ∩Wi x0 . Therefore, by Lemma 2.2, hxi+1 − x0 , p − xi+1 i ≥ 0 for each p ∈ Hi ∩ Wi . Since F (T ) ⊂ Hi ∩ Wi , we get F (T ) ⊂ Wi+1 . So, we have F (T ) ⊂ Hi+1 ∩ Wi+1 . Further, since F (T ) is a nonempty, closed and convex subset of H, there exists a unique element u0 ∈ F (T ) such that u0 = PF (T ) x0 . From xn+1 = PHn ∩Wn (x0 ), we obtain kxn+1 − x0 k ≤ kz − x0 k for every z ∈ Hn ∩ Wn . As u0 ∈ F (T ) ⊂ Wn , we get kxn+1 − x0 k ≤ ku0 − x0 k ∀ n ≥ 0. (2.2) This implies that {xn } is bounded. Now, we show that lim kxn+1 − xn k = 0. n→∞ (2.3) From the definition of Wn and Lemma 2.2, we have xn = PWn x0 . As xn+1 ∈ Hn ∩ Wn , we obtain kxn+1 − x0 k ≥ kxn − x0 k ∀ n ≥ 0. Therefore, {kxn − x0 k} is a nondecreasing and bounded sequence. So, there exists limn→∞ kxn − x0 k = c. On the other hand, from xn+1 ∈ Wn , it follows that hxn − x0 , xn+1 − xn i ≥ 0, 30 Hybrid descent-like halpern iteration methods... and hence kxn − xn+1 k2 = kxn − x0 − (xn+1 − x0 )k2 = kxn − x0 k2 − 2hxn − x0 , xn+1 − x0 i + kxn+1 − x0 k2 ≤ kxn+1 − x0 k2 − kxn − x0 k2 ∀n ≥ 0. Thus, (2.3) is proved by using the last inequality and limn→∞ kxn − x0 k = c. Next, since xn+1 ∈ Hn we have that kyn − xn+1 k2 ≤ kxn − xn+1 k2 + βn (kx0 k + 2hxn − x0 , zi)}. Therefore, from (2.3), the boundness of {xn }, βn → 0 and the last inequality, it follows that lim kyn − xn+1 k = 0. (2.4) n→∞ This together with (2.3) implies that lim kyn − xn k = 0. n→∞ (2.5) Noticing that T̃2 zn = yn − βn (xn − T̃2 zn ) + βn (xn − x0 ), we have kxn − T̃2 zn k ≤ kxn − yn k + βn kxn − T̃2 zn k + βn kxn − x0 k. From (2.2) and the last inequality, it follows that 1 kxn − yn k + βn ku0 − x0 k . kxn − T̃2 zn k ≤ 1 − βn By βn → 0 (βn ≤ 1 − β for some β ∈ (0, 1)), (2.5) and the last inequality, we obtain lim kxn − T̃2 zn k = 0. (2.6) n→∞ Now, we shall prove that kxn − T̃1 xn k → 0 and kxn − T̃2 xn k → 0, as n → ∞. Indeed, since {xn } is bounded, for any p ∈ F and any subsequence {T̃1 xnk − xnk } of {T̃1 xn − xn } there exists a subsequence {xnj } ⊂ {xnk } such that lim kxnj − pk = lim sup kxnk − pk = a. j→∞ k→∞ By (2.6), (2.1) and the following inequalities kxnj − pk ≤ kxnj − T̃2 znj k + kT̃2 znj − pk ≤ kxnj − T̃2 znj k + kznj − pk ≤ kxnj − T̃2 znj k + kxnj − pk, 31 Nguyen Buong and Nguyen Duc Lang we get that lim kxnj − pk = lim kznj − pk = a. j→∞ j→∞ Again from (2.1) and the condition on µn , it implies that a(1 − b)kT̃1 xnj − xnj k ≤ kxnj − pk − kznj − pk. So, kT̃1 xnj − xnj k → 0 and hence kT̃1 xn − xn k → 0, as n → ∞. Further, since kT̃2 xn − xn k ≤ kT̃2 xn − T̃2 zn k + kT̃2 zn − xn k ≤ kxn − zn k + kT̃2 zn − xn k, lim kzn − xn k = lim µn kT̃1 xn − xn k = 0, n→∞ n→∞ (2.7) by (2.6) and kT̃1 xn −xn k → 0, we also obtain that kT̃2 xn −xn k → 0. Since {xn } is bounded, there exists a subsequence {xni } of {xn } that converges weakly to some element p ∈ H as i → ∞. By Lemmas 2.3 and kT̃1 xn −xn k, kT̃2 xn −xn k → 0, we have that p ∈ F . Now, from (2.2) and the weak lower semicontinuity of the norm it implies that kx0 − u0 k ≤ kx0 − pk ≤ lim inf kx0 − xnj k ≤ lim sup kx0 − xnj k ≤ kx0 − u0 k. j→∞ j→∞ Thus, we obtain limj→∞ kx0 − xnj k = kx0 − u0 k = kx0 − pk. This implies xkj → p = u0 by Lemma 2.4. By the uniqueness of the projection u0 = PF x0 , we have that xn → u0 . Consequently, from (2.7) it follows that zn → u0 . From (2.5), we also get that yn → u0 . This completes the proof. We have the following corollaries. Corollary 2.6. Let Ci , i = 1, 2, be two nonempty, closed and convex subsets in a real Hilbert space H. Let Ti , i = 1, 2, be two nonexpansive mappings on Ci such that F (T1 ) ∩ F (T2 ) 6= ∅. Assume that {µn } is a sequence such that 0 < a ≤ µn ≤ b < 1. Then, the sequences {xn } and {yn }, defined by x0 ∈ H any element, yn = T2 PC2 (xn − µn (xn − T1 PC1 xn )), Hn = {z ∈ H : kyn − zk ≤ kxn − zk}, Wn = {z ∈ H : hxn − z, x0 − xn i ≥ 0}, xn+1 = PHn ∩Wn (x0 ), n ≥ 0, 32 Hybrid descent-like halpern iteration methods... converge strongly to the same point u0 = PF (T ) x0 , as n → ∞. Proof. By putting βn ≡ 0 in Theorem 2.5, we obtain the conclusion. Corollary 2.7. Let Ci , i = 1, 2, be two nonempty, closed and convex subsets in a real Hilbert space H such that C := C1 ∩ C2 6= ∅. Assume that {µn } and {βn } are sequences in [0,1] such that µn ∈ (a, b) for some a, b ∈ (0, 1) and βn → 0. Then, the sequences {xn }, {zn } and {yn }, defined by x0 ∈ H any element, zn = xn − µn (xn − PC1 xn ), yn = βn x0 + (1 − βn )PC2 zn , Hn = {z ∈ H : kyn − zk2 ≤ kxn − zk2 + βn (kx0 k + 2hxn − x0 , zi)}, Wn = {z ∈ H : hxn − z, x0 − xn i ≥ 0}, xn+1 = PHn ∩Wn x0 , n ≥ 0, converge strongly to the same point u0 = PC x0 , as n → ∞. Proof. By putting T1 = T2 = I in Theorem 2.5, we obtain the conclusion. 3 Strong convergence to a common fixed point of two nonexpansive semigroups We need the following Lemma in the proof of our result. Lemma 3.1 [23]. Let C be a nonempty bounded closed convex subset in a real Hilbert space H and let {T (t) : t > 0} be a nonexpansive semigroup on C. Then, for any h > 0 Z t Z 1 1 t lim sup sup T (h) T (s)yds − T (s)yds = 0. t 0 t 0 t→∞ y∈C Now, we prove the following result. Theorem 3.2. Let C1 and C2 be two nonempty closed convex subsets in a real Hilbert space H and let {T1 (t) : t > 0} and {T2 (t) : t > 0} be two nonexpansive semigroups on C1 and C2 , respectively, such that F = F1 ∩ F2 6= ∅ where 33 Nguyen Buong and Nguyen Duc Lang Fi = ∩t>0 F (Ti (t)), i = 1, 2. Assume that {µn } and {βn } are sequences in [0,1] such that µn ∈ (a, b) for some a, b ∈ (0, 1) and βn → 0 and {tn } is a positive real divergent sequence. Then, the sequences {xn }, {zn } and {yn }, defined by (1.10), converge strongly to the same point u0 = PF x0 , as n → ∞. Proof. For each p ∈ F, we have for each s > 0 that p = PCi p = T̃i (s)p, i = 1, 2, where T̃i (s) = Ti (s)PCi , and hence from (1.10) and Lemma 2.1, we obtain that 2 Z tn 1 2 T̃1 (s)xn )ds − p kzn − pk = (1 − µn )(xn − p) + µn tn 0 2 Z tn 1 = (1 − µn )(xn − p) + µn [T̃1 (s)xn − T̃1 (s)p]ds tn 0 Z 2 1 tn 2 T̃1 (s)xn − T̃1 (s)pds = (1 − µn )kxn − pk + µn tn 0 Z tn 2 1 (3.1) T̃1 (s)xn ds − (1 − µn )µn xn − tn 0 Z 2 1 tn 2 T̃1 (s)xn ds ≤ kxn − pk − (1 − µn )µn xn − tn 0 ≤ kxn − pk2 . By the similar argument and the convexity of k.k2 , we also obtain 2 Z tn 1 2 T̃2 (s)zn ds − p kyn − pk = βn (x0 − p) + (1 − βn ) tn 0 Z 1 tn 2 [T̃2 (s)zn − T̃2 (s)p]ds ≤ βn kx0 − pk + (1 − βn ) tn 0 2 ≤ βn kx0 − pk2 + (1 − βn )kzn − pk2 ≤ βn kx0 − pk2 + (1 − βn )kxn − pk2 = kxn − pk2 + βn (kx0 − pk2 − kxn − pk2 ) = kxn − pk2 + βn (kx0 k2 + 2hxn − x0 , pi). Therefore, p ∈ Hn for n ≥ 0. It means that F ⊂ Hn for n ≥ 0. As in the proof of Theorem 2.5, we can obtain the following properties: (i) F ⊂ Hn ∩ Wn , kxn+1 − x0 k ≤ ku0 − x0 k, u0 = PF x0 (3.2) 34 Hybrid descent-like halpern iteration methods... for n ≥ 0. This implies that {xn } is bounded. (ii) lim kxn+1 − xn k = 0. (3.3) lim kyn − xn+1 k = 0. (3.4) lim kyn − xn k = 0. (3.5) n→∞ n→∞ n→∞ Noticing that Z Z 1 tn 1 tn T̃2 (s)zn ds = yn − βn xn − T̃2 (s)zn ds +βn (xn − x0 ), tn 0 tn 0 we have 1 kxn − tn Z tn T̃2 (s)zn dsk ≤ kxn − yn k Z 1 tn T̃2 (s)zn ds +βn kxn − x0 k. +βn xn − tn 0 0 From (3.2) and the last inequality, it follows that Z 1 tn 1 kxn − yn k + βn ku0 − x0 k . T̃2 (s)zn ds ≤ xn − tn 0 1 − βn By βn → 0 (βn ≤ 1 − β for some β ∈ (0, 1)), (3.5) and the last inequality, we obtain Z 1 tn lim xn − (3.6) T̃2 (s)zn ds = 0. n→∞ tn 0 As in the proof of Theorem 2.5, by using (3.6) we can obtain that Z 1 tn T̃i (s)xn ds = 0, i = 1, 2, lim xn − n→∞ tn 0 (3.7) and lim kxn − zn k = 0. n→∞ Since 1 tn Z tn T̃i (s)xn ds ∈ Ci , i = 1, 2, 0 we have that 1 PCi xn − tn Z tn 0 Z 1 tn T̃i (s)xn ds = PCi xn − PCi T̃i (s)xn ds tn 0 Z 1 tn ≤ xn − T̃i (s)xn ds , tn 0 (3.8) Nguyen Buong and Nguyen Duc Lang and hence from (3.7) it implies that Z 1 tn T̃i (s)xn ds = 0, i = 1, 2. lim PCi xn − n→∞ tn 0 35 (3.9) Since {xn } is bounded, there exists a subsequence {xnj } of {xn } that converges weakly to some element q ∈ H as j → ∞. From (3.7) and (3.9), we also obtain that uinj := PCi xnj → q as j → ∞. It means that q ∈ C1 ∩ C2 . Then, for each h > 0, we have that Z tn 1 i i i i Ti (s)un ds kTi (h)un − un k ≤ Ti (h)un − Ti (h) tn 0 Z tn Z 1 tn 1 i + Ti (h) Ti (s)un ds − Ti (s)uin ds tn 0 tn 0 Z 1 tn (3.10) Ti (s)uin ds − uin + tn 0 Z 1 tn ≤2 Ti (s)uin ds − uin tn 0 Z tn Z 1 tn 1 i + T (h) Ti (s)un ds − Ti (s)uin ds . tn 0 tn 0 Let C0i = {z ∈ Ci : kz − u0 k ≤ 2kx0 − u0 k}. Since u0 = PF x0 ∈ Ci , we have that kuinj − u0 k = kPCi xnj − PCi u0 k ≤ kxnj − u0 k ≤ 2kx0 − uo k. So, C0i is a nonempty bounded closed convex subset. It is easy to verify that {Ti (t) : t > 0} is a nonexpansive semigroup on C0i . By Lemma 3.1, we get Z tn Z 1 1 tn i lim Ti (h) T (s)un ds − T (s)uin ds = 0 n→∞ tn 0 tn 0 for every fixed h > 0 and hence by (3.9)-(3.10) we obtain that lim kTi (h)uinj − uinj k = 0 j→∞ for each h > 0. By Lemma 2.3, q ∈ F (Ti (h)) for all h > 0. It means that q ∈ F. As in the proof of Theorem 2.5, by using (3.2), (3.5) and (3.8), we also obtain that the sequences {xn }, {yn } and {zn }, defined by (1.10), converge strongly to u0 as n → ∞. This completes the proof. Corollary 3.3. Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset in a real Hilbert 36 Hybrid descent-like halpern iteration methods... space H and let {T (t) : t > 0} be a nonexpansive semigroup on C such that F = ∩t>0 F (T (t)) 6= ∅. Assume that {βn } is a sequence in [0,1] such that βn → 0. Then, the sequences {xn } and {yn }, defined by x0 ∈ H any element, 1 yn = βn x0 + (1 − βn ) tn Z tn T (s)PC (xn )ds, 0 Hn = {z ∈ H : kyn − zk2 ≤ kxn − zk2 + βn (kx0 k + 2hxn − x0 , zi)}, Wn = {z ∈ H : hxn − z, x0 − xn i ≥ 0}, xn+1 = PHn ∩Wn (x0 ), n ≥ 0, converge strongly to the same point u0 = PF x0 , as n → ∞. Proof. By putting T1 (s) = I for all s > 0, C1 = H, C2 = C and T2 (s) = T (s) in Theorem 3.2, we obtain the conclusion. Corollary 3.4. Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset in a real Hilbert space H and let {T (t) : t > 0} be a nonexpansive semigroup on C such that F = ∩t>0 F (T (t)) 6= ∅. Assume that {αn } is a sequence in [0,1] such that αn → 1. Then, the sequences {xn } and {yn }, defined by x0 ∈ H any element, Z 1 tn 1 tn T (s)PC xn − µn xn − T (s)PC xn ds ds , yn = tn 0 tn 0 Z Hn = {z ∈ H : kyn − zk ≤ kxn − zk}, Wn = {z ∈ H : hxn − z, x0 − xn i ≥ 0}, xn+1 = PHn ∩Wn (x0 ), n ≥ 0, converge strongly to the same point u0 = PF x0 , as n → ∞. Proof. By putting βn ≡ 0, C2 = H, C1 = C, T2 (s) = I and T1 (s) = T (s) for all s > 0 in Theorem 3.2, we obtain the conclusion. References [1] E.F.
