The paper is devoted to a generalization of Hillam's theorem. Let \(a<b\) and \(f:[a,b]\to[a,b]\). Then the iteration scheme \[ x_{n+1}= x_n(1-\lambda)+ \lambda f(x_n),\quad 0<\lambda<1, \quad x_0\in [a,b] \] , is called Hillam's iteration scheme. Hillam's theorem states that, if \(f:[a,b]\to[a,b]\) satisfies the Lipschitz condition with constants \(L={1-\lambda \over\lambda}\), then every solution of Hillam's iteration scheme converges to a fixed point of \(f\). In this note, a simple proof of Hillam's theorem is presented and a generalization of Hillam's theorem to infinite dimensions is obtained.
