1 Introduction

Variational inequalities are one of the most interesting and intensively studied classes of mathematical problems and there exists a considerable amount of literature [115] on the approximate solvability of nonlinear variational inequalities. In this paper, we consider, based on the projection methods, the approximate solvability for a system of generalized relaxed cocoercive nonlinear variational inequalities in Hilbert spaces. The results presented in this paper extend and improve the main results in [15].

Throughout this paper, we assume that H is a real Hilbert space with the inner product , and the induced norm . Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of H, and let P C be the metric projection of H onto C. Let T i :C×CH, g i :CC and f i :CH be relaxed cocoercive mappings for each i=1,2. We consider a system of generalized nonlinear variational inequality (SGNVI) problem as follows: find an element ( x , y )C×C such that

{ λ T 1 ( y , x ) + g 1 ( x ) f 1 ( y ) , x g 1 ( x ) 0 , x C  and  λ > 0 , μ T 2 ( x , y ) + g 2 ( y ) f 2 ( x ) , x g 2 ( y ) 0 , x C  and  μ > 0 .
(1.1)

SGNVI problem (1.1) is equivalent to the following projection problem:

{ g 1 ( x ) = P C ( f 1 ( y ) λ T 1 ( y , x ) ) , λ > 0 , g 2 ( y ) = P C ( f 2 ( x ) μ T 2 ( x , y ) ) , μ > 0 .
(1.2)

Next we consider some special cases of SGNVI problem (1.1), where I is the identity mapping.

  1. (1)

    If g 1 = g 2 =I, then SGNVI problem (1.1) is reduced to the following: find an element ( x , y )C×C such that

    { λ T 1 ( y , x ) + x f 1 ( y ) , x x 0 , x C  and  λ > 0 , μ T 2 ( x , y ) + y f 2 ( x ) , x y 0 , x C  and  μ > 0 .
    (1.3)
  2. (2)

    If f 1 = f 2 =I, then SGNVI problem (1.1) is reduced to the following: find an element ( x , y )C×C such that

    { λ T 1 ( y , x ) + g 1 ( x ) y , x g 1 ( x ) 0 , x C  and  λ > 0 , μ T 2 ( x , y ) + g 2 ( y ) x , x g 2 ( y ) 0 , x C  and  μ > 0 .
    (1.4)
  3. (3)

    If g 1 = g 2 = f 1 = f 2 =I, then SGNVI problem (1.1) is reduced to the following: find an element ( x , y )C×C such that

    { λ T 1 ( y , x ) + x y , x x 0 , x C  and  λ > 0 , μ T 2 ( x , y ) + y x , x y 0 , x C  and  μ > 0 .
    (1.5)
  4. (4)

    If T 1 and T 2 are univariate mappings, then SGNVI problem (1.1) is reduced to the following: find an element ( x , y )C×C such that

    { λ T 1 ( y ) + g 1 ( x ) f 1 ( y ) , x g 1 ( x ) 0 , x C  and  λ > 0 , μ T 2 ( x ) + g 2 ( y ) f 2 ( x ) , x g 2 ( y ) 0 , x C  and  μ > 0 .
    (1.6)
  5. (5)

    If g 1 = g 2 = f 1 = f 2 =I, T 1 and T 2 are univariate mappings, then SGNVI problem (1.1) is reduced to the following: find an element ( x , y )C×C such that

    { λ T 1 ( y ) + x y , x x 0 , x C  and  λ > 0 , μ T 2 ( x ) + y x , x y 0 , x C  and  μ > 0 .
    (1.7)
  6. (6)

    If g 1 = g 2 = f 1 = f 2 =I and μ=0, then SGNVI problem (1.1) is reduced to the following: find an element x C such that

    T 1 ( x , x ) , x x 0,xC.

2 Preliminaries

In order to prove our main results in the next section, we recall several definitions and lemmas.

Definition 2.1 Let T:CH be a mapping.

  1. (1)

    T is said to be β-Lipschitz continuous if there exists a constant β>0 such that

    TxTyβxy,x,yC.
  2. (2)

    T is said to be monotone if

    TxTy,xy0,x,yC.
  3. (3)

    T is said to be δ-strongly monotone if there exists a constant δ>0 such that

    TxTy,xyδ x y 2 ,x,yC.

This implies that

TxTyδxy,x,yC,

that is, T is δ-expansive.

  1. (4)

    T is said to be γ-cocoercive if there exists a constant γ>0 such that

    TxTy,xyγ T x T y 2 ,x,yC.

Clearly, every γ-cocoercive mapping T is 1 γ -Lipschitz continuous.

  1. (5)

    T is said to be relaxed γ-cocoercive if there exists a constant γ>0 such that

    TxTy,xy(γ) T x T y 2 ,x,yC.
  2. (6)

    T is said to be relaxed (γ,δ)-cocoercive if there exist two constants γ,δ>0 such that

    TxTy,xy(γ) T x T y 2 +δ x y 2 ,x,yC.

Definition 2.2 A mapping T:C×CH is said to be relaxed (γ,δ)-cocoercive if there exist two constants γ,δ>0 such that for all x, x C,

T ( x , y ) T ( x , y ) , x x (γ) T ( x , y ) T ( x , y ) 2 +δ x x 2 ,y, y C.

Definition 2.3 A mapping T:C×CH is said to be β-Lipschitz continuous in the first variable if there exists a constant β>0 such that for all x, x C,

T ( x , y ) T ( x , y ) β x x ,y, y C.

Definition 2.4 P C :HC is called a metric projection if for every point xH, there exists a unique nearest point in C, denoted by P C x, such that

x P C xxy,yC.

Lemma 2.1 P C :HC is a metric projection, then P C is a nonexpansive mapping, i.e.,

P C x P C yxy,x,yH.

Lemma 2.2 [5]

Let { a n }, { b n } and { c n } be three nonnegative real sequences such that

a n + 1 (1 λ n ) a n + b n + c n ,n n 0 ,

where n 0 is some nonnegative integer, { λ n } is a sequence in (0,1) with n = 1 λ n =, b n =o( λ n ) and n = 1 c n <. Then lim n a n =0.

3 Main results

In this section, we present the projection methods and give the convergence analysis of SGNVI problem (1.1) involving relaxed (γ,δ)-cocoercive and β-Lipschitz continuous mappings in Hilbert spaces.

Theorem 3.1 Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let T i :C×CH be a relaxed ( γ i , δ i )-cocoercive and α i -Lipschitz continuous mapping in the first variable, let g i :CC be a relaxed ( η i , ρ i )-cocoercive and β i -Lipschitz continuous mapping, and let f i :CH be a relaxed ( η ¯ i , ρ ¯ i )-cocoercive and β ¯ i -Lipschitz continuous mapping for each i=1,2. Suppose that ( x , y )C×C is a solution to SGNVI problem (1.1). For any ( x 0 , y 0 )C×C, the sequences { x n } and { y n } are generated by

{ t n + 1 = ( 1 a n ) x n + a n ( x n g 1 ( x n ) + P C ( f 1 ( y n ) λ T 1 ( y n , x n ) ) ) , n 0 , x n + 1 = P C t n + 1 , n 0 , z n = y n g 2 ( y n ) + P C ( f 2 ( x n ) μ T 2 ( x n , y n ) ) , n 1 , y n = ( 1 b n ) x n + b n P C z n , n 1 ,
(3.1)

where λ,μ>0 and the following conditions are satisfied:

(1) 0 < a n , b n 1 ; (2) n = 0 a n = ; (3) n = 1 ( 1 b n ) < ; (4) 0 θ 2 , θ 5 < 1 ; (5) θ 4 + θ 6 1 ; (6) 0 < ( θ 1 + θ 3 ) ( θ 4 + θ 6 ) < ( 1 θ 2 ) ( 1 θ 5 ) ;

where

θ 1 = 1 2 λ δ 1 + 2 λ γ 1 α 1 2 + λ 2 α 1 2 , θ 2 = 1 2 ρ 1 + β 1 2 + 2 η 1 β 1 2 , θ 3 = 1 2 ρ ¯ 1 + β ¯ 1 2 + 2 η ¯ 1 β ¯ 1 2 , θ 4 = 1 2 μ δ 2 + 2 μ γ 2 α 2 2 + μ 2 α 2 2 , θ 5 = 1 2 ρ 2 + β 2 2 + 2 η 2 β 2 2 , θ 6 = 1 2 ρ ¯ 2 + β ¯ 2 2 + 2 η ¯ 2 β ¯ 2 2 .

Then the sequences { x n } and { y n } converge strongly to x and y , respectively.

Proof Since ( x , y )C×C is a solution to SGNVI problem (1.1), it follows that

{ x = x g 1 ( x ) + P C ( f 1 ( y ) λ T 1 ( y , x ) ) , y = y g 2 ( y ) + P C ( f 2 ( x ) μ T 2 ( x , y ) ) .

For n1, we have

x n + 1 x = P C t n + 1 P C x t n + 1 x = ( 1 a n ) x n + a n ( x n g 1 ( x n ) + P C ( f 1 ( y n ) λ T 1 ( y n , x n ) ) ) x ( 1 a n ) x n x + a n ( x n g 1 ( x n ) + P C ( f 1 ( y n ) λ T 1 ( y n , x n ) ) ) ( x g 1 ( x ) + P C ( f 1 ( y ) λ T 1 ( y , x ) ) ) ( 1 a n ) x n x + a n x n x ( g 1 ( x n ) g 1 ( x ) ) + a n P C ( f 1 ( y n ) λ T 1 ( y n , x n ) ) P C ( f 1 ( y ) λ T 1 ( y , x ) ) ( 1 a n ) x n x + a n x n x ( g 1 ( x n ) g 1 ( x ) ) + a n f 1 ( y n ) f 1 ( y ) λ ( T 1 ( y n , x n ) T 1 ( y , x ) ) ( 1 a n ) x n x + a n x n x ( g 1 ( x n ) g 1 ( x ) ) + a n y n y ( f 1 ( y n ) f 1 ( y ) ) + a n y n y λ ( T 1 ( y n , x n ) T 1 ( y , x ) ) .
(3.2)

Since g 1 is a relaxed ( η 1 , ρ 1 )-cocoercive and β 1 -Lipschitz continuous mapping, we have

x n x ( g 1 ( x n ) g 1 ( x ) ) 2 = x n x 2 2 g 1 ( x n ) g 1 ( x ) , x n x + g 1 ( x n ) g 1 ( x ) 2 x n x 2 2 ( ( η 1 ) g 1 ( x n ) g 1 ( x ) 2 + ρ 1 x n x 2 ) + β 1 2 x n x 2 = ( 1 2 ρ 1 + β 1 2 ) x n x 2 + 2 η 1 g 1 ( x n ) g 1 ( x ) 2 ( 1 2 ρ 1 + β 1 2 ) x n x 2 + 2 η 1 β 1 2 x n x 2 θ 2 2 x n x 2 ,
(3.3)

where θ 2 = 1 2 ρ 1 + β 1 2 + 2 η 1 β 1 2 . In a similar way, we can obtain that

y n y ( f 1 ( y n ) f 1 ( y ) ) θ 3 y n y ,
(3.4)

where θ 3 = 1 2 ρ ¯ 1 + β ¯ 1 2 + 2 η ¯ 1 β ¯ 1 2 . By the assumption that T 1 is a relaxed ( γ 1 , δ 1 )-cocoercive and α 1 -Lipschitz continuous mapping in the first variable, we have

y n y λ ( T 1 ( y n , x n ) T 1 ( y , x ) ) 2 = y n y 2 2 λ T 1 ( y n , x n ) T 1 ( y , x ) , y n y + λ 2 T 1 ( y n , x n ) T 1 ( y , x ) 2 y n y 2 2 λ ( ( γ 1 ) T 1 ( y n , x n ) T 1 ( y , x ) 2 + δ 1 y n y 2 ) + λ 2 T 1 ( y n , x n ) T 1 ( y , x ) 2 = ( 1 2 λ δ 1 ) y n y 2 + ( 2 λ γ 1 + λ 2 ) T 1 ( y n , x n ) T 1 ( y , x ) 2 ( 1 2 λ δ 1 ) y n y 2 + ( 2 λ γ 1 + λ 2 ) α 1 2 y n y 2 = θ 1 2 y n y 2 ,
(3.5)

where θ 1 = 1 2 λ δ 1 + 2 λ γ 1 α 1 2 + λ 2 α 1 2 . According to (3.2), (3.3), (3.4) and (3.5), we obtain that

x n + 1 x [ 1 a n ( 1 θ 2 ) ] x n x + a n ( θ 1 + θ 3 ) y n y .
(3.6)

Next, we estimate y n y . From (3.1), we see that

y n y = ( 1 b n ) x n + b n P C z n y ( 1 b n ) x n y + b n P C z n P C y ( 1 b n ) x n y + b n z n y = ( 1 b n ) x n y + b n y n g 2 ( y n ) + P C ( f 2 ( x n ) μ T 2 ( x n , y n ) ) ( y g 2 ( y ) + P C ( f 2 ( x ) μ T 2 ( x , y ) ) ) ( 1 b n ) x n y + b n y n y ( g 2 ( y n ) g 2 ( y ) ) + b n P C ( f 2 ( x n ) μ T 2 ( x n , y n ) ) P C ( f 2 ( x ) μ T 2 ( x , y ) ) ( 1 b n ) x n y + b n y n y ( g 2 ( y n ) g 2 ( y ) ) + b n x n x ( f 2 ( x n ) f 2 ( x ) ) + b n x n x μ ( T 2 ( x n , y n ) T 2 ( x , y ) ) .
(3.7)

Similarly, we obtain that

y n y ( g 2 ( y n ) g 2 ( y ) ) θ 5 y n y ,
(3.8)

where θ 5 = 1 2 ρ 2 + β 2 2 + 2 η 2 β 2 2 , and

x n x ( f 2 ( x n ) f 2 ( x ) ) θ 6 x n x ,
(3.9)

where θ 6 = 1 2 ρ ¯ 2 + β ¯ 2 2 + 2 η ¯ 2 β ¯ 2 2 , and

x n x μ ( T 2 ( x n , y n ) T 2 ( x , y ) ) θ 4 x n x ,
(3.10)

where θ 4 = 1 2 μ δ 2 + 2 μ γ 2 α 2 2 + μ 2 α 2 2 . According to (3.7), (3.8), (3.9) and (3.10), we obtain that

y n y ( 1 b n ) x n y + b n θ 5 y n y + b n θ 6 x n x + b n θ 4 x n x ( 1 b n ) x n x + ( 1 b n ) x y + b n θ 5 y n y + b n ( θ 4 + θ 6 ) x n x ,
(3.11)

that is,

(1 b n θ 5 ) y n y (1 b n ) x y + [ 1 b n + b n ( θ 4 + θ 6 ) ] x n x .
(3.12)

By conditions (1), (4) and (5), we have

1 1 b n θ 5 1 1 θ 5 and1 b n + b n ( θ 4 + θ 6 ) θ 4 + θ 6 .
(3.13)

Substituting (3.13) into (3.12), we have

y n y 1 b n 1 θ 5 x y + θ 4 + θ 6 1 θ 5 x n x .
(3.14)

According (3.6) and (3.14), for n1, we have

x n + 1 x [ 1 a n ( 1 θ 2 ( θ 1 + θ 3 ) ( θ 4 + θ 6 ) 1 θ 5 ) ] x n x + a n ( θ 1 + θ 3 ) 1 θ 5 ( 1 b n ) x y [ 1 a n ( 1 θ 2 ( θ 1 + θ 3 ) ( θ 4 + θ 6 ) 1 θ 5 ) ] x n x + ( θ 1 + θ 3 ) 1 θ 5 ( 1 b n ) x y .
(3.15)

From conditions (1), (2), (3) and (6), we get

a n ( 1 θ 2 ( θ 1 + θ 3 ) ( θ 4 + θ 6 ) 1 θ 5 ) (0,1), n = 1 a n ( 1 θ 2 ( θ 1 + θ 3 ) ( θ 4 + θ 6 ) 1 θ 5 ) =

and

n = 1 ( θ 1 + θ 3 ) 1 θ 5 (1 b n ) x y <.

The conditions in Lemma 2.2 are satisfied, then x n x 0 (as n), i.e., x n x (as n).

On the one hand, from condition (3) we know that 1 b n 0 (as n). On the other hand, from (3.14) and the result that x n x (as n), we can get y n y 0 (as n), i.e., y n y (as n).

This completes the proof of Theorem 3.1. □

When g 1 = g 2 =I, f 1 = f 2 =I, then we have θ 2 = θ 5 =0, θ 3 = θ 6 =0, respectively. And from Theorem 3.1 we can get the following results immediately.

Corollary 3.1 Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let T i :C×CH be a relaxed ( γ i , δ i )-cocoercive and α i -Lipschitz continuous mapping in the first variable, and let f i :CH be a relaxed ( η ¯ i , ρ ¯ i )-cocoercive and β ¯ i -Lipschitz continuous mapping for each i=1,2. Suppose that ( x , y )C×C is a solution to problem (1.3). For any ( x 0 , y 0 )C×C, the sequences { x n } and { y n } are generated by

{ x n + 1 = ( 1 a n ) x n + a n P C ( f 1 ( y n ) λ T 1 ( y n , x n ) ) , n 0 , y n = ( 1 b n ) x n + b n P C ( f 2 ( x n ) μ T 2 ( x n , y n ) ) , n 1 ,
(3.16)

where λ,μ>0 and the following conditions are satisfied:

(1) 0 < a n , b n 1 ; (2) n = 0 a n = ; (3) n = 1 ( 1 b n ) < ; (4) θ 4 + θ 6 1 ; (5) 0 < ( θ 1 + θ 3 ) ( θ 4 + θ 6 ) < 1 ;

where

θ 1 = 1 2 λ δ 1 + 2 λ γ 1 α 1 2 + λ 2 α 1 2 , θ 3 = 1 2 ρ ¯ 1 + β ¯ 1 2 + 2 η ¯ 1 β ¯ 1 2 , θ 4 = 1 2 μ δ 2 + 2 μ γ 2 α 2 2 + μ 2 α 2 2 , θ 6 = 1 2 ρ ¯ 2 + β ¯ 2 2 + 2 η ¯ 2 β ¯ 2 2 .

Then the sequences { x n } and { y n } converge strongly to x and y , respectively.

Corollary 3.2 Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let T i :C×CH be a relaxed ( γ i , δ i )-cocoercive and α i -Lipschitz continuous mapping in the first variable, and let g i :CC be a relaxed ( η i , ρ i )-cocoercive and β i -Lipschitz continuous mapping for each i=1,2. Suppose that ( x , y )C×C is a solution to problem (1.4). For any ( x 0 , y 0 )C×C, the sequences { x n } and { y n } are generated by

{ t n + 1 = ( 1 a n ) x n + a n ( x n g 1 ( x n ) + P C ( y n λ T 1 ( y n , x n ) ) ) , n 0 , x n + 1 = P C t n + 1 , n 0 , z n = y n g 2 ( y n ) + P C ( x n μ T 2 ( x n , y n ) ) , n 1 , y n = ( 1 b n ) x n + b n P C z n , n 1 ,
(3.17)

where λ,μ>0 and the following conditions are satisfied:

(1) 0 < a n , b n 1 ; (2) n = 0 a n = ; (3) n = 1 ( 1 b n ) < ; (4) 0 θ 2 , θ 5 < 1 ; (5) θ 4 1 ; (6) 0 < θ 1 θ 4 < ( 1 θ 2 ) ( 1 θ 5 ) ;

where

θ 1 = 1 2 λ δ 1 + 2 λ γ 1 α 1 2 + λ 2 α 1 2 , θ 2 = 1 2 ρ 1 + β 1 2 + 2 η 1 β 1 2 , θ 4 = 1 2 μ δ 2 + 2 μ γ 2 α 2 2 + μ 2 α 2 2 , θ 5 = 1 2 ρ 2 + β 2 2 + 2 η 2 β 2 2 .

Then the sequences { x n } and { y n } converge strongly to x and y , respectively.

Corollary 3.3 Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let T i :C×CH be a relaxed ( γ i , δ i )-cocoercive and α i -Lipschitz continuous mapping in the first variable for each i=1,2. Suppose that ( x , y )C×C is a solution to problem (1.5). For any ( x 0 , y 0 )C×C, the sequences { x n } and { y n } are generated by

{ x n + 1 = ( 1 a n ) x n + a n P C ( y n λ T 1 ( y n , x n ) ) , n 0 , y n = ( 1 b n ) x n + b n P C ( x n μ T 2 ( x n , y n ) ) , n 1 ,
(3.18)

where λ,μ>0 and the following conditions are satisfied:

(1) 0 < a n , b n 1 ; (2) n = 0 a n = ; (3) n = 1 ( 1 b n ) < ; (4) θ 4 1 ; (5) 0 < θ 1 θ 4 < 1 ;

where

θ 1 = 1 2 λ δ 1 + 2 λ γ 1 α 1 2 + λ 2 α 1 2 , θ 4 = 1 2 μ δ 2 + 2 μ γ 2 α 2 2 + μ 2 α 2 2 .

Then the sequences { x n } and { y n } converge strongly to x and y , respectively.

Corollary 3.4 Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let T i :CH be a relaxed ( γ i , δ i )-cocoercive and α i -Lipschitz continuous mapping, let g i :CC be a relaxed ( η i , ρ i )-cocoercive and β i -Lipschitz continuous mapping, and let f i :CH be a relaxed ( η ¯ i , ρ ¯ i )-cocoercive and β ¯ i -Lipschitz continuous mapping for each i=1,2. Suppose that ( x , y )C×C is a solution to problem (1.6). For any ( x 0 , y 0 )C×C, the sequences { x n } and { y n } are generated by

{ t n + 1 = ( 1 a n ) x n + a n ( x n g 1 ( x n ) + P C ( f 1 ( y n ) λ T 1 ( y n ) ) ) , n 0 , x n + 1 = P C t n + 1 , n 0 , z n = y n g 2 ( y n ) + P C ( f 2 ( x n ) μ T 2 ( x n ) ) , n 1 , y n = ( 1 b n ) x n + b n P C z n , n 1 ,
(3.19)

where λ,μ>0 and the following conditions are satisfied:

(1) 0 < a n , b n 1 ; (2) n = 0 a n = ; (3) n = 1 ( 1 b n ) < ; (4) 0 θ 2 , θ 5 < 1 ; (5) θ 4 + θ 6 1 ; (6) 0 < ( θ 1 + θ 3 ) ( θ 4 + θ 6 ) < ( 1 θ 2 ) ( 1 θ 5 ) ;

where

θ 1 = 1 2 λ δ 1 + 2 λ γ 1 α 1 2 + λ 2 α 1 2 , θ 2 = 1 2 ρ 1 + β 1 2 + 2 η 1 β 1 2 , θ 3 = 1 2 ρ ¯ 1 + β ¯ 1 2 + 2 η ¯ 1 β ¯ 1 2 , θ 4 = 1 2 μ δ 2 + 2 μ γ 2 α 2 2 + μ 2 α 2 2 , θ 5 = 1 2 ρ 2 + β 2 2 + 2 η 2 β 2 2 , θ 6 = 1 2 ρ ¯ 2 + β ¯ 2 2 + 2 η ¯ 2 β ¯ 2 2 .

Then the sequences { x n } and { y n } converge strongly to x and y , respectively.

Corollary 3.5 Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let T i :CH be a relaxed ( γ i , δ i )-cocoercive and α i -Lipschitz continuous mapping for each i=1,2. Suppose that ( x , y )C×C is a solution to problem (1.7). For any ( x 0 , y 0 )C×C, the sequences { x n } and { y n } are generated by

{ x n + 1 = ( 1 a n ) x n + a n P C ( y n λ T 1 ( y n ) ) , n 0 , y n = ( 1 b n ) x n + b n P C ( x n μ T 2 ( x n ) ) , n 1 ,
(3.20)

where λ,μ>0 and the following conditions are satisfied:

(1) 0 < a n , b n 1 ; (2) n = 0 a n = ; (3) n = 1 ( 1 b n ) < ; (4) θ 4 1 ; (5) 0 < θ 1 θ 4 < 1 ;

where

θ 1 = 1 2 λ δ 1 + 2 λ γ 1 α 1 2 + λ 2 α 1 2 , θ 4 = 1 2 μ δ 2 + 2 μ γ 2 α 2 2 + μ 2 α 2 2 .

Then the sequences { x n } and { y n } converge strongly to x and y , respectively.

For μ=0, b n =1 in Corollary 3.3, we arrive at the following result.

Corollary 3.6 Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let T 1 :C×CH be a relaxed ( γ 1 , δ 1 )-cocoercive and α 1 -Lipschitz continuous mapping in the first variable. Suppose that x C is a solution to problem (1.8). For any x 0 C, the sequence { x n } is generated by

x n + 1 =(1 a n ) x n + a n P C ( x n λ T 1 ( x n , x n ) ) ,n0,
