Viscosity methods of asymptotically pseudocontractive and asymptotically nonexpansive mappings for variational inequalities (Q1925369)

Summary: Let \(\{t_n\} \subset (0, 1)\) be such that \(t_n \rightarrow 1\) as \(n \rightarrow \infty \), let \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) be two positive numbers such that \(\alpha + \beta = 1\), and let \(f\) be a contraction. If \(T\) be a continuous asymptotically pseudocontractive self-mapping of a nonempty bounded closed convex subset \(K\) of a real reflexive Banach space with a uniformly Gateaux differentiable norm, under suitable conditions on the sequence \(\{t_n\}\), we show the existence of a sequence \(\{x_n\}_n\) satisfying the relation \(x_n = (1 - t_n/k_n)f(x_n) + (t_n/k_n)T^nx_n\) and prove that \(\{x_n\}\) converges strongly to the fixed point of \(T\), which solves some variational inequality provided \(T\) is uniformly asymptotically regular. As an application, if \(T\) be an asymptotically nonexpansive self-mapping of a nonempty bounded closed convex subset \(K\) of a real Banach space with a uniformly Gateaux differentiable norm and which possesses uniform normal structure, we prove that the iterative process defined by \(z_0 \in K, z_{n+1} = (1 - t_n/k_n)f(z_n) + (\alpha t_n/k_n)T^nz_n + (\beta t_n/k_n)z_n\) converges strongly to the fixed point of \(T\).
