Approximation of fixed points of weakly contractive nonself maps in Banach spaces (Q697439)

The authors present extensions and generalisations of theorems related with approximating fixed points due to \textit{Ya. Alber} and \textit{S. Guerre-Delabriere} [Analysis, München 21, No.~1, 17-39 (2001; Zbl 0985.47044)] from real Hilbert spaces to more general real uniformly smooth Banach spaces. We cite two results briefly stated in the abstract: Let \(K\) be a closed convex subset of a real uniformly smooth Banach space \(E.\) Suppose \(K\) is a nonexpansive retract of \(E\) with \(P\) as the nonexpansive retraction. Let \(T: K \rightarrow E\) be a d-weakly contractive map such that a fixed point \(x^* \in int(K)\) of \(T\) exists. It is proved that a descent-like approximation sequence converges strongly to \(x^*.\) Furthermore, if \(K\) is a nonempty closed convex subset of an arbitrary real Banach space and \(T : K \rightarrow E\) is a uniformly continuous d-weakly contractive map with \(F(T) :=\{x \in K: T x = x\} \neq\emptyset \), it is proved that a descent-like approximation sequence converges strongly to \(x^* \in F(T).\)
