Convergence theorems for fixed points of demicontinuous pseudocontractive mappings (Q2570909)

Let \(D\) be a nonempty open and convex subset of a real uniformly smooth Banach space \(E\). Suppose that \(T:\bar D\to E\) is a demicontinuous pseudocontractive mapping which satisfies for some \(z\in D\), \(Tx-z\neq\lambda (x-z)\) for \(x\in\partial D\), \(\lambda>1\), where \(\bar D\) denotes the closure of \(D\). Then the authors prove that (i) \(\bar D\subset\mathcal R(I+ r(1-T))\) for every \(r>0\); (ii) for a given \(y_0\in D\), there exists a unique path \(t\to y_t\in\bar D\), \(t\in[0,1]\), satisfying \(y_{t}:= tTy_t+(1-t)y_0\). Moreover, if \(F(T)\neq \emptyset\) or there exists \(y_0\in D\) such that the set \(K:=\{y\in D:Ty=\lambda y+(1-\lambda)y_0\text{ for }\lambda>1\}\) is bounded, then the authors prove that, as \(t\to 1^-\), the path \(\{y_{t}\}\) converges strongly to a fixed point of \(T\).
