Convergence theorems for new classes of multivalued hemicontractive-type mappings

Abstract

Weak and strong convergence theorems are proved in Hilbert spaces for new classes of multivalued demicontractive-type and hemicontractive-type mappings which are related to the class of multivalued pseudocontractive-type mappings studied by Isiogugu (Fixed Point Theory Appl. 2013:61, 2013). Thus our results extend and improve several corresponding results in the contemporary literature.

1 Introduction

Let E be a normed space. A subset K of E is called proximinal if for each x∈E there exists k∈K such that

∥x−k∥=inf { ∥ x − y ∥ : y ∈ K } =d(x,K).

It is well known that every closed convex subset of a uniformly convex Banach space is proximinal. For a nonempty set E, we shall denote the family of all nonempty proximinal subsets of E by P(E), the family of all nonempty closed and bounded subsets of E by CB(E), the family of all nonempty closed, convex, and bounded subsets of E by CVB(E), the family of all nonempty closed subsets of E by C(X), the family of all nonempty subsets of E by 2 E , the identity on E by I, the weak topology of E by σ(E, E ∗ ), and the norm (or strong) topology of E by (E,∥⋅∥).

Let H denote the Hausdorff metric induced by the metric d on E, that is, for every A,B∈ 2 E ,

H(A,B)=max { sup a ∈ A d ( a , B ) , sup b ∈ B d ( b , A ) } .

If A,B∈CB(E), then

H(A,B)=inf { ϵ > 0 : A ⊆ N ( ϵ , B )  and  B ⊆ N ( ϵ , A ) } ,

where N(ϵ,C)= ⋃ c ∈ C {x∈E:d(x,c)<ϵ}. Let E be a normed space. Let T:D(T)⊆E→ 2 E be a multivalued mapping on E. A point x∈D(T) is called a fixed point of T if x∈Tx. The set F(T)={x∈D(T):x∈Tx} is called the fixed point set of T. A point x∈D(T) is called a strict fixed point of T if Tx={x}. The set F s (T)={x∈D(T):Tx={x}} is called the strict fixed point set of T. A multivalued mapping T:D(T)⊆E→ 2 E is called L-Lipschitzian if there exists L≥0 such that for all x,y∈D(T)

H(Tx,Ty)≤L∥x−y∥.
(1.1)

In (1.1) if L∈[0,1), T is said to be a contraction, while T is nonexpansive if L=1. T is called quasi-nonexpansive if F(T)={x∈D(T):x∈Tx}≠∅ and for all p∈F(T),

H(Tx,Tp)≤∥x−p∥.
(1.2)

Clearly every nonexpansive mapping with nonempty fixed point set is quasi-nonexpansive.

Several authors have studied various classes of multivalued mappings. In [1], Shahzad and Zegeye studied certain classes of multivalued nonself mappings in Banach spaces and constructed an appropriate net which converges strongly to a fixed point of the classes of the mappings. Recently, Isiogugu [2] introduced new classes of multivalued mappings as follows.

Definition 1.1 ([2])

Let X be a normed space. A multivalued mapping T:D(T)⊆X→ 2 X is said to be k-strictly pseudocontractive-type in the sense of Browder and Petryshyn [3] if there exists k∈[0,1) such that given any x,y∈D(T) and u∈Tx, there exists v∈Ty satisfying ∥u−v∥≤H(Tx,Ty) and

H 2 (Tx,Ty)≤ ∥ x − y ∥ 2 +k ∥ x − u − ( y − v ) ∥ 2 .
(1.3)

If k=1 in (1.3) T is said to be a pseudocontractive-type mapping. T is called nonexpansive-type if k=0. Clearly, every multivalued nonexpansive mapping is nonexpansive-type mapping.

From the definitions, it is clear that every multivalued nonexpansive-type mapping is k-strictly pseudocontractive-type and every k-strictly pseudocontractive-type mapping is pseudocontractive-type. Examples to show that the class of nonexpansive-type mappings is properly contained in the class of k-strictly pseudocontractive-type mappings and that the class of k-strictly pseudocontractive-type mappings is properly contained in the class of pseudocontractive-type mappings were given in [2]. The following theorems were also proved in [2].

Theorem 1.1 Let K be a nonempty closed and convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Suppose that T:K→P(K) is a k-strictly pseudocontractive-type mapping from K into the family of all proximinal subsets of K with k∈(0,1) such that F(T)≠∅ and T(p)={p} for all p∈F(T). Suppose (I−T) is weakly demiclosed at zero. Then the Mann-type sequence defined by

x n + 1 =(1− α n ) x n + α n y n

converges weakly to q∈F(T), where y n ∈T x n with ∥ x n − y n ∥=d( x n ,T x n ) and α n is a real sequence in (0,1) satisfying: (i) α n →α<1−k; (ii) α>0; (iii) ∑ n = 1 ∞ α n (1− α n )=∞.

Theorem 1.2 Let K be a nonempty closed and convex subset of a real Hilbert space X. Suppose that T:K→P(K) is an L-Lipschitzian pseudocontractive-type mapping from K into the family of all proximinal subsets of K such that F(T)≠∅ and T(p)={p} for all p∈F(T). Suppose for any pair x,y∈K and u∈Tx with ∥x−u∥=d(x,Tx), there exists v∈Ty with ∥y−v∥=d(y,Ty) satisfying the conditions of Definition  1.1. Suppose T satisfies condition (1) (i.e., if there exists a nondecreasing function f:[0,∞)→[0,∞) with f(0)=0 and f(r)>0 for all r∈(0,∞) such that d(x,Tx)≥f(d(x,F(T))), ∀x∈K. Then the Ishikawa sequence defined by

{ y n = ( 1 − β n ) x n + β n u n , x n + 1 = ( 1 − α n ) x n + α n w n
(1.4)

converges strongly to p∈F(T), where u n ∈T x n with ∥ x n − u n ∥=d( x n ,T x n ), w n ∈T y n with ∥ y n − w n ∥=d( y n ,T y n ) satisfying the conditions in Definition  1.1 and { α n } and { β n } are real sequences satisfying: (i) 0≤ α n ≤ β n <1; (ii) lim inf n → ∞ α n =α>0; (iii) sup n ≥ 1 β n ≤β≤ 1 1 + L 2 + 1 .

In [4], Chidume et al. also considered a class of multivalued k-strictly pseudocontractive mappings defined as follows.

Let H be a real Hilbert space. A multivalued mapping T:D(T)⊆H→CB(H) is said to be k-strictly pseudocontractive if there exists k∈(0,1) such that for all x,y∈D(T) one has

H 2 (Tx,Ty)≤ ∥ x − y ∥ 2 +k ∥ x − u − ( y − v ) ∥ 2 ,∀u∈Tx,v∈Ty.

If k=1, T is said to be pseudocontractive mapping. They constructed a Mann-type iteration scheme which is an approximate fixed point sequence and obtain some strong convergence theorems for the class of k-strictly pseudocontractive mappings.

The following example shows that the class of multivalued pseudocontractive-type mappings considered by Isiogugu [2] is not a subclass of the multivalued pseudocontractive mappings considered by Chidume et al. [4].

Example 1.1 Let X=R (the reals with usual metric). Define T:[0,∞)→CB(R) by

Tx= [ − 5 x 2 , − 2 x ] .
(1.5)

It was shown in [2] that T is k-strictly pseudocontractive-type mapping hence pseudocontractive-type. However, for x=3, y=2 if we choose u=−6∈Tx and v=−5∈Ty then H 2 (Tx,Ty)= 25 4 and ∥ x − y ∥ 2 + ∥ x − u − ( y − v ) ∥ 2 =5. Consequently,

H 2 (Tx,Ty)> ∥ x − y ∥ 2 + ∥ x − u − ( y − v ) ∥ 2 ,

which implies that T is not pseudocontractive and hence not k-strictly pseudocontractive mapping in the sense of Chidume et al. [4].

It is our purpose in this work to introduce and study new classes of multivalued demicontractive-type and hemicontractive-type mappings which are more general than the class of multivalued quasi-nonexpansive mappings and are also related to the multivalued k-strictly pseudocontractive-type and pseudocontractive-type mappings of Isiogugu [2], single-valued mappings of Browder and Petryshyn [3], Hicks and Kubicek [5] and Naimpally and Singh [6]. We also prove weak and strong convergence theorems for approximation of fixed points of our classes of mappings.

2 Preliminaries

We shall need the following definitions and lemmas.

Definition 2.1 (see, e.g., [7])

Let E be a Banach space. Let T:D(T)⊆E→ 2 E be a multivalued mapping. I−T is said to be strongly demiclosed at zero if for any sequence { x n } n = 1 ∞ ⊆D(T) such that x n converges strongly to p and a sequence { y n } with y n ∈T x n for all n∈N such that { x n − y n } converges strongly to zero, then p∈Tp (i.e., 0∈(I−T)p).

Observe that if T is a multivalued Lipschitzian mapping, then I−T is strongly demiclosed.

Definition 2.2 (see, e.g., [7, 8])

Let E be a Banach space. Let T:D(T)⊆E→ 2 E be a multivalued mapping. I−T is said to be weakly demiclosed at zero if for any sequence { x n } n = 1 ∞ ⊆D(T) such that { x n } converges weakly to p and a sequence { y n } with y n ∈T x n for all n∈N such that { x n − y n } converges strongly to zero. Then p∈Tp (i.e., 0∈(I−T)p).

Definition 2.3 (see, e.g., [7, 8])

Let E be a Banach space. Let T:D(T)⊆E→ 2 E be a multivalued mapping. The graph of I−T is said to be closed in σ(E, E ∗ )×(E,∥⋅∥) (i.e., I−T is weakly demiclosed or demiclosed) if for any sequence { x n } n = 1 ∞ ⊆D(T) such that { x n } converges weakly to p and a sequence { y n } with y n ∈T x n for all n∈N such that { x n − y n } converges strongly to y. Then y∈(I−T)p (i.e., y=p−v for some v∈Tp).

Definition 2.4 A Banach X is said to satisfy Opial’s condition if whenever a sequence { x n } converges weakly to x∈X then it is the case that

lim inf∥ x n −x∥<lim inf∥ x n −y∥,

for all y∈X, y≠x.

Definition 2.5 ([9])

A multivalued mapping T:K→P(K) is said to satisfy condition (1) (see for example [9]) if there exists a nondecreasing function f:[0,∞)→[0,∞) with f(0)=0 and f(r)>0 for all r∈(0,∞) such that

d(x,Tx)≥f ( d ( x , F ( T ) ) ) ,∀x∈K.

Lemma 2.1 ([10])

Let { a n }, { β n }, and { γ n } be sequences of nonnegative real numbers satisfying the following relation:

a n + 1 ≤(1+ β n ) a n + γ n ,n≥ n 0 ,

where n 0 is a nonnegative integer. If ∑ β n <∞, ∑ γ n <∞, then lim n → ∞ a n exists.

Lemma 2.2 ([11])

Let K be a normed space. Let T:K→P(K) be a multivalued mapping and P T (x)={y∈Tx:∥x−y∥=d(x,Tx)}. Then the following are equivalent:

  1. (1)

    x∈Tx;

  2. (2)

    P T x={x};

  3. (3)

    x∈F( P T ).

Moreover, F(T)=F( P T ).

Lemma 2.3 ([12])

Let A,B∈CB(X) and a∈A. If γ>0, then there exists b∈B such that

d(a,b)≤H(A,B)+γ.

3 Main results

We now introduce the new classes of multivalued demicontractive-type and hemicontractive-type mappings and prove some convergence theorems for these classes of mappings.

Definition 3.1 Let X be a real normed space. A mapping T:D(T)⊆X→ 2 X is said to be demicontractive in the terminology of Hicks and Kubicek [5] if F(T)≠∅ and for all p∈F(T), x∈D(T) there exists k∈[0,1) such that

H 2 (Tx,Tp)≤ ∥ x − p ∥ 2 +k d 2 (x,Tx),
(3.1)

where H 2 (Tx,Tp)= [ H ( T x , T p ) ] 2 and d 2 (x,p)= [ d ( x , p ) ] 2 .

If k=1 in (3.1) then T is called a hemicontractive mapping.

The following are some examples of demicontractive mappings.

Example 3.1 Every multivalued quasi-nonexpansive mapping is demicontractive.

Example 3.2 Let X be a normed space. Suppose that T is a multivalued mapping such that F(T)≠∅ and that P T is a k-strictly pseudocontractive-type mapping; then P T is demicontractive.

Example 3.3 Let X be a normed space. Let T:D(T)⊆X→P(X) be a multivalued k-strictly pseudocontractive-type with a nonempty fixed point set. Suppose Tp={p} for all p∈F(T); then for any x∈D(T), p∈F(T) and u∈Tx with ∥u−x∥=d(x,Tx) we have

H 2 (Tx,Tp)≤ ∥ x − p ∥ 2 +k ∥ x − u ∥ 2 = ∥ x − p ∥ 2 +k d 2 (x,Tx);

therefore, T is demicontractive-type.

Example 3.4 Let X=R (the reals with usual metric). Define T:R→ 2 R by

Tx= { [ − 3 x 2 , − 2 x ] , x ∈ ( − ∞ , 0 ] , [ − 2 x , − 3 x 2 ] , x ∈ ( 0 , ∞ ) .
(3.2)

Then F(T)={0}. For each x∈(−∞,0)∪(0,∞),

H 2 ( T x , T 0 ) = | − 2 x − 0 | 2 = 4 | x − 0 | 2 = | x − 0 | 2 + 3 | x | 2 , d 2 ( x , T x ) = | x − ( − 3 x 2 ) | 2 = | 5 x 2 | 2 = 25 4 | x | 2 .

Therefore,

H 2 (Tx,T0)= | x − 0 | 2 +3 | x | 2 = | x − 0 | 2 + 12 25 d 2 (x,Tx)≤ | x − 0 | 2 +k d 2 (x,Tx).

Consequently, T is demicontractive-type with k= 12 25 . It then follows that T is hemicontractive. Observe that T is not quasi-nonexpansive so that the class of multivalued quasi-nonexpansive mappings is properly contained in the class of multivalued demicontractive-type mappings.

Next is an example of a multivalued mapping T with F(T)≠∅, Tp={p} for all p∈Tp for which P T is a demicontractive-type but not a k-strictly pseudocontractive-type mapping.

Example 3.5 Let X=R (the reals with usual metric). Define T:[−1,1]→ 2 [ − 1 , 1 ] by

Tx= { [ − 1 , 2 3 x sin 1 x ] , x ∈ ( 0 , 1 ] , { 0 } , x = 0 , [ 2 3 x sin 1 x , 1 ] , x ∈ [ − 1 , 0 ) .
(3.3)

Then F(T)={0}. For each x∈[−1,1],

P T x= { { 2 3 x sin 1 x } , x ≠ 0 , { 0 } , x = 0 ,
(3.4)

which is demicontractive-type but not k-strictly pseudocontractive-type (see for example [5]).

The following example shows that the class of demicontractive mapping is properly contained in the class of hemicontractive mappings.

Example 3.6 Let X=R (the reals with the usual metric). Define T:R→ 2 R by

Tx= { [ − 2 x , 0 ] , x ∈ [ 0 , ∞ ) , [ 0 , − 2 x ] , x ∈ ( − ∞ , 0 ) .
(3.5)

Then F(T)={0}. For each x∈(−∞,0)∪(0,∞),

H 2 ( T x , T 0 ) = | 2 x − 0 | 2 = 2 | x − 0 | 2 = | x − 0 | 2 + | x − 0 | 2 , d 2 ( x , T x ) = | x − 0 | 2 = | x − 0 | 2 .

Therefore,

H 2 (Tx,T0)≤ | x − 0 | 2 + | x − 0 | 2 = | x − 0 | 2 + d 2 (x,Tx)> | x − 0 | 2 +k d 2 (x,Tx),
(3.6)

∀x∈B and ∀k∈[0,1). Therefore, T is hemicontractive but not demicontractive.

Other examples of hemicontractive mappings include the following.

Example 3.7 Let X be a normed space. Suppose T is a multivalued mapping such that F(T)≠∅ and P T is pseudocontractive-type mapping; then P T is hemicontractive.

Example 3.8 Let X be a normed space. Let T:D(T)⊆X→P(X) be a multivalued pseudocontractive-type with a nonempty fixed point set. Suppose Tp={p} for all p∈F(T); then for any x∈D(T), p∈F(T) and u∈Tx with ∥u−x∥=d(x,Tx) we have

H 2 (Tx,Tp)≤ ∥ x − p ∥ 2 + ∥ x − u ∥ 2 = ∥ x − p ∥ 2 + d 2 (x,Tx).

The following lemma shows that Lemma 2.3 is also valid for all A,B∈P(E) and γ=0.

Lemma 3.1 Let E be a metric space. If A,B∈P(E) and a∈A, then it is a simple consequence of the Hausdorff metric H that there exists b∈B such that

d(a,b)≤H(A,B).
(3.7)

Proof Let E be a metric space and P(E) be the family of all nonempty proximinal subsets of E. Let A,B∈P(E) and a∈A. Since B is proximinal, there exists b a ∈B such that

d(a,B)=d(a, b a ).

Observe that

H ( A , B ) = max { sup u ∈ A d ( u , B ) , sup v ∈ B d ( v , A ) } ≥ sup u ∈ A d ( u , B ) ≥ d ( a , B ) = d ( a , b a ) .

Hence the result follows. □

Remark 3.1 Lemma 3.1 holds if E is a reflexive real Banach space and P(E) is replaced with CB(K) with B weakly closed (see for example [4]).

We now prove the following theorems.

Theorem 3.1 Let K be a nonempty closed and convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Suppose that T:K→P(K) is a demicontractive mapping from K into the family of all proximinal subsets of K with k∈(0,1) and T(p)={p} for all p∈F(T). Suppose (I−T) is weakly demiclosed at zero. Then the Mann type sequence defined by

x n + 1 =(1− α n ) x n + α n y n ,
(3.8)

converges weakly to q∈F(T), where y n ∈T x n and α n is a real sequence in (0,1) satisfying: (i) α n →α<1−k; (ii) α>0.

Proof Using the well-known identity:

∥ t x + ( 1 − t ) y ∥ 2 =t ∥ x ∥ 2 +(1−t) ∥ y ∥ 2 −t(1−t) ∥ x − y ∥ 2 ,

which holds for all x,y∈H and for all t∈[0,1], we obtain

∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 = ∥ ( 1 − α n ) x n + α n y n − p ∥ 2 = ∥ ( 1 − α n ) ( x n − p ) + α n ( y n − p ) ∥ 2 = ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 − α n ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − y n ∥ 2 ≤ ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n H 2 ( T x n , T p ) − α n ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − y n ∥ 2 ≤ ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n [ ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + k d 2 ( x n , T x n ) ] − α n ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − y n ∥ 2 ≤ ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n k ∥ x n − y n ∥ 2 − α n ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − y n ∥ 2 = ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 − α n ( 1 − ( α n + k ) ) ∥ x n − y n ∥ 2 .
(3.9)

It then follows that lim n → ∞ ∥ x n −p∥ exists; hence { x n } is bounded. Also,

∑ n = 1 ∞ α n ( 1 − ( α n + k ) ) ∥ x n − y n ∥ 2 ≤ ∥ x 0 − p ∥ 2 <∞.

Since α>0 from (ii), we have lim n → ∞ ∥ x n − y n ∥=0. Thus lim n → ∞ d( x n ,T x n )=0. Also since K is closed and { x n }⊆K with { x n } bounded, there exist a subsequence { x n t }⊆{ x n } such that { x n t } converges weakly to some q∈K. Also lim n → ∞ ∥ x n − y n ∥=0 implies that lim n → ∞ ∥ x n t − y n t ∥=0. Since (I−T) is weakly demiclosed at zero we have q∈Tq. Since H satisfies Opial’s condition [13] we find that { x n } converges weakly to q∈F(T). □

Corollary 3.1 Let K be a nonempty closed and convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Suppose that T:K→P(K) is k-strictly pseudocontractive-type mapping from K into the family of all proximinal subsets of K with k∈(0,1) such that F(T)≠∅ and T(p)={p} for all p∈F(T). Suppose (I−T) is weakly demiclosed at zero. Then the Mann sequence { x n } defined in Theorem  3.1 converges weakly to a point of F(T).

Proof The proof follows easily from Example 3.3 and Theorem 3.1. □

Corollary 3.2 Let H be a real Hilbert space and K a nonempty closed and convex subset of H. Let T:K→P(K) be a multivalued mapping from K into the family of all proximinal subsets of K. Suppose P T is a demicontractive mapping with k∈(0,1) and (I− P T ) is weakly demiclosed at zero. Then the Mann sequence { x n } defined in Theorem  3.1 converges weakly to a point of F(T).

Proof The proof follows easily from Lemma 2.2 and Theorem 3.1. □

Remark 3.2 Since the choice of y n ∈T x n in the Mann-type iteration scheme is independent of d( x n ,T x n ), we can also replace P(K) with CB(K) in Theorem 3.1 and its corollaries. Furthermore, since lim n → ∞ d( x n ,T x n )=0, one can impose standard conditions on T or K which guarantee strong convergence.

Theorem 3.2 Let K be a nonempty closed and convex subset of a real Hilbert space X. Suppose that T:K→P(K) is an L-Lipschitzian hemicontractive mapping from K into the family of all proximinal subsets of K and Tp={p} for all p∈F(T). Suppose T satisfies condition (1). Then the Ishikawa sequence defined by

{ y n = ( 1 − β n ) x n + β n u n , x n + 1 = ( 1 − α n ) x n + α n w n
(3.10)

converges strongly to p∈F(T), where u n ∈T x n , w n ∈T y n satisfying the conditions of Lemma  3.1 and { α n } and { β n } are real sequences satisfying: (i) 0≤ α n ≤ β n <1; (ii)  lim inf n → ∞ α n =α>0; (iii) sup n ≥ 1 β n ≤β≤ 1 1 + L 2 + 1 .

Proof

∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 = ∥ ( 1 − α n ) x n + α n w n − p ∥ 2 ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 = ∥ ( 1 − α n ) ( x n − p ) + α n ( w n − p ) ∥ 2 ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 = ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n ∥ w n − p ∥ 2 ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 = − α n ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 ≤ ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n H 2 ( T y n , T p ) ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 = − α n ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 ≤ ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n [ ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 = + d 2 ( y n , T y n ) ] − α n ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 = ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 + α n d 2 ( y n , T y n ) ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 = − α n ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 ,
(3.11)
d 2 ( y n , T y n ) ≤ ∥ y n − w n ∥ 2 d 2 ( y n , T y n ) = ∥ ( 1 − β n ) x n + β n u n − w n ∥ 2 d 2 ( y n , T y n ) = ∥ ( 1 − β n ) ( x n − w n ) + β n ( u n − w n ) ∥ 2 d 2 ( y n , T y n ) = ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 + β n ∥ u n − w n ∥ 2 d 2 ( y n , T y n ) ≤ − β n ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 .
(3.12)

Equations (3.11) and (3.12) imply that

∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 ≤ ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 ≤ + α n [ ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 + β n ∥ u n − w n ∥ 2 ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 ≤ − β n ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 ] ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 ≤ − α n ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 ,
(3.13)
∥ y n − p ∥ 2 = ∥ ( 1 − β n ) x n + β n u n − p ∥ 2 ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 = ∥ ( 1 − β n ) ( x n − p ) + β n ( u n − p ) ∥ 2 ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 = ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + β n ∥ u n − p ∥ 2 − β n ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 ≤ ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + β n H 2 ( T x n , T p ) − β n ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 ≤ ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + β n [ ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + d 2 ( x n , T x n ) ] ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 = − β n ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 ≤ ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + β n ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + β n ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 = − β n ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 ∥ y n − p ∥ 2 = ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + β n 2 ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 .
(3.14)

Equations (3.13) and (3.14) imply that

∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 ≤ ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n [ ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + β n 2 ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 ] + α n [ ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 + β n ∥ u n − w n ∥ 2 − β n ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 ] − α n ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 = ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n β n 2 ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 + α n ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 + α n β n ∥ u n − w n ∥ 2 − α n β n ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 − α n ( 1 − α n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 ≤ ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n β n 2 ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 + α n β n H 2 ( T x n , T y n ) − α n ( β n − α n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 − α n β n ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 ≤ ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 + α n β n 2 ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 + α n β n 3 L 2 ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 − α n β n ( 1 − β n ) ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 − α n ( β n − α n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 = ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 − α n β n [ 1 − 2 β n − L 2 β n 2 ] ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 − α n ( β n − α n ) ∥ x n − w n ∥ 2 = ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 − α n β n [ 1 − 2 β n − L 2 β n 2 ] ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 .

It then follows from Lemma 2.1 that lim n → ∞ ∥ x n −p∥ exists. Hence { x n } is bounded so { u n } and { w n } also are. We then have from (3.15), (ii), and (iii)

∑ n = 0 ∞ α 2 [ 1 − 2 β − L 2 β 2 ] ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 ≤ ∑ n = 0 ∞ α n β n [ 1 − 2 β n − L 2 β n 2 ] ∥ x n − u n ∥ 2 ≤ ∑ n = 0 ∞ [ ∥ x n − p ∥ 2 − ∥ x n + 1 − p ∥ 2 ] ≤ ∥ x 0 − p ∥ 2 + D < ∞ .

It then follows that lim n → ∞ ∥ x n − u n ∥=0. Since u n ∈T x n we have d( x n ,T x n )≤∥ x n − u n ∥→0 as n→∞. Since T satisfies condition (1), lim n → ∞ d( x n ,F(T))=0. Thus there exists a subsequence { x n k } of { x n } such that ∥ x n k − p k ∥≤ 1 2 k for some { p k }⊆F(T). From (3.10)

∥ x n k + 1 − p k ∥≤∥ x n k − p k ∥.

We now show that { p k } is a Cauchy sequence in F(T). We have

∥ p k + 1 − p k ∥ ≤ ∥ p k + 1 − x n k + 1 ∥ + ∥ x n k + 1 − p k ∥ ≤ 1 2 k + 1 + 1 2 k = 1 2 k − 1 .

Therefore { p k } is a Cauchy sequence and converges to some q∈K because K is closed. Now,

∥ x n k −q∥≤∥ x n − p k ∥+∥ p k −q∥.

Hence x n k →q as k→∞. We have

d ( q , T q ) ≤ ∥ q − p k ∥ + ∥ p k − x n k ∥ + d ( x n k , T x n k ) + H ( T x n k , T q ) ≤ ∥ q − p k ∥ + ∥ p k − x n k ∥ + d ( x n k , T x n k ) + L ∥ x n k − q ∥ .

Hence, q∈Tq and { x n k } converges strongly to q. Since lim∥ x n −q∥ exists we see that x n converges strongly to q∈F(T). □

Corollary 3.3 Let K be a nonempty closed and convex subset of a real Hilbert space X. Suppose that T:K→P(K) is an L-Lipschitzian pseudocontractive-type mapping from K into the family of all proximinal subsets of K such that F(T)≠∅ and T(p)={p} for all p∈F(T). Suppose T satisfies condition (1). Then the Ishikawa sequence { x n } defined in (3.10) converges strongly to p∈F(T).

Proof The proof follows easily from Example 3.8, Lemma 3.1, and Theorem 3.2. □

Corollary 3.4 Let H be a real Hilbert space and K a nonempty closed and convex subset of H. Let T:K→P(K) be a multivalued mapping from K into the family of all proximinal subsets of K such that F(T)≠∅. Suppose P T is an L-Lipschitzian hemicontractive mapping. If T satisfies condition (1). Then the Ishikawa sequence { x n } defined in (3.10) converges strongly to p∈F(T).

Proof The proof follows easily from Lemma 2.2 and Theorem 3.2. □

Remark 3.3 In Theorem 3.2 and its corollaries we can replace P(K) with CB(K) with additional condition that T is weakly closed for all x∈D(T)=K in order to ensure that u n and w n satisfy Lemma 3.1 as indicated in Remark 3.1. Furthermore, since lim n → ∞ d( x n ,T x n )=0, the additional requirement that (I−T) is weakly demiclosed at zero in Theorem 3.2 yields weak convergence without condition (1).
