Strong convergence theorems for variational inequalities and split equality problem (Q2443686)

Summary: Let \(H_1\), \(H_2\) and \(H_3 \) be real Hilbert spaces, let \(C\subseteq H_2\) be two nonempty closed convex sets, and let \(A:H_1\to H_3\), \(B:H_2\to H_3\) be two bounded linear operators. The split equality problem (SEP) is to find \(x\in C\), \(y\in Q\) such that \(Ax=By\). Let \(H=H_1\times H_2\); consider \(f:H\to H\) a contraction with coefficient \(0<\alpha <1\), a strongly positive linear bounded operator \(T:H\to H\) with coefficient \(\bar{\gamma}>0\), and \(M:H\to H\) is a \(\beta\)-inverse strongly monotone mapping. Let \(0<\gamma <\bar{\gamma}/\alpha\), \(S=C\times Q \) and \(G:H\to H_3\) be defined by restricting to \(H_1\) is \(A\) and restricting to \(H_2\) is \(-B\), that is, \(G\) has the matrix form \(G=[A,-B]\). It is proved that the sequence \(\{w_n\}=\{(x_n,y_n)\}\subseteq H\) generated by the iterative method \(w_{n+1} = P_S [\alpha_n,\gamma f(w_n) + (I-\alpha_nT) P_S (I-\gamma_n G^* G) P_S (w_n -\lambda_n Mw_m)]\) converges strongly to \(\bar{w}\) which solves the SEP and the following variational inequality: \(\langle (T-\lambda f)\bar{w},w-\bar{w}\rangle \geq 0\) and \(\langle M\bar{w},w-\bar{w}\rangle \geq 0\) for all \(w\in S\). Moreover, if we take \(M=G^*G:H \to H\), \(\gamma_n=0\), then \(M\) is a \(\beta\)-inverse strongly monotone mapping, and the sequence \(\{w_n\}\) generated by the iterative method \(w_{n+1} =\alpha_n \gamma f(w_n) + (I-\alpha_n T) P_S(w_n -\lambda_n G^* Gw_n)\) converges strongly to \(\bar{w}\) which solves the SEP and the following variational inequality: \(\langle (T-\lambda f)\bar{w}, w-\bar{w} \rangle\geq 0\) for all \(w\in S\).
