Strong convergence theorems by the viscosity approximation method for a countable family of nonexpansive mappings (Q946830)

The authors prove a strong convergence theorem for a countable family of nonexpansive mappings in a real Banach space. The main result is as follows: Let \(E\) be a uniformly convex Banach space with a uniformly Gâteaux differentiable norm and \(C\) be a closed convex subset of \(E\). Let \(\{T_n\}\) be a countable family of nonexpansive mappings of \(C\) into itself with a nonempty common fixed point and \(f\) be a contractive mapping of \(C\) into itself with the Lipschitz constant \(a<1\). Let \(\{\lambda_n\}\) be a sequence of real numbers in \((0,1]\) such that \(\lambda_n\leq b<1\) for all \(n\geq2\). Suppose that \(W_n\) is the \(W\)-mapping generated by \(T_n,T_{n-1},\dots,T_1\) and \(\lambda_n,\lambda_{n-1},\dots,\lambda_1\). Let \(\{x_n\}\) be a sequence generated by \(x_1\in C\) and \(x_{n+1}=\alpha_n f(x_n)+(1-\alpha_n)W_nx_n\) for \(n\geq1\), where \(\{\alpha_n\}\subset[0,1]\) satisfies \(\lim_n\alpha_n=0\), \(\sum_{n=1}^\infty\alpha_n=\infty\) and \(\sum_{n=1}^\infty|\alpha_n-\alpha_{n+1}|<\infty\). Then \(\{x_n\}\) converges strongly to \(z\) which is a common fixed point of \(\{T_n\}\) and \(z\) is the image of the sunny nonexpansive retraction of \(C\) onto the set of common fixed points of \(\{T_n\}\).
