We introduce a new general iterative method for finding a common element of the set of solutions of fixed point for nonexpansive mappings, the set of solution of generalized mixed equilibrium problems, and the set of solutions of the variational inclusion for aβ-inverse-strongly monotone mapping in a real Hilbert space. We prove that the sequence converges strongly to a common element of the above three sets under some mild conditions. Our results improve and extend the corresponding results of Marino and Xu2006, Su et al.2008, Klin-eam and Suantai2009, Tan and Chang2011, and some other authors.
1. Introduction
LetCbe a closed convex subset of a real Hilbert spaceHwith the inner product·,·and the norm·. LetFbe a bifunction ofC×CintoR, whereRis the set of real numbers,Ψ:C → H a mapping, andϕ:C → Ra real-valued function. The generalized mixed equilibrium problem is for findingx∈Csuch that
Fx, yΨx, y−xϕy−ϕx≥0, ∀y∈C. 1.1
The set of solutions of1.1is denoted by GMEPF, ϕ,Ψ, that is,
IfF ≡ 0, the problem1.1is reduced into the mixed variational inequality of Browder type1
for findingx∈Csuch that
Ψx, y−xϕy−ϕx≥0, ∀y∈C. 1.3
The set of solutions of1.3is denoted by MVIC, ϕ,Ψ.
IfΨ ≡ 0 andϕ ≡ 0, the problem1.1is reduced into the equilibrium problem 2for findingx∈Csuch that
Fx, y≥0, ∀y∈C. 1.4
The set of solutions of1.4is denoted by EPF. This problem contains fixed point problems and includes as special cases numerous problems in physics, optimization, and economics. Some methods have been proposed to solve the equilibrium problem; see3–5.
If F ≡ 0 and ϕ ≡ 0, the problem 1.1 is reduced into the Hartmann-Stampacchia
variational inequality6for findingx∈Csuch that
Ψx, y−x≥0, ∀y∈C. 1.5
The set of solutions of 1.5 is denoted by VIC,Ψ. The variational inequality has been extensively studied in the literature7.
IfF ≡ 0 andΨ≡0, the problem1.1is reduced into the minimize problem for finding x∈Csuch that
ϕy−ϕx≥0, ∀y∈C. 1.6
The set of solutions of1.6is denoted by Arg minϕ.
Iterative methods for nonexpansive mappings have recently been applied to solve convex minimization problems. Convex minimization problems have a great impact and influence on the development of almost all branches of pure and applied sciences. A typical problem is to minimize a quadratic function over the set of the fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping on a real Hilbert spaceH:
θx 1
2Ax, x −
x, y, ∀x∈FS, 1.7
whereAis a linear bounded operator,FSis the fixed point set of a nonexpansive mapping S, andyis a given point inH8.
Recall that a mappingS:C → Cis said to be nonexpansive if
for allx, y ∈ C. IfCis bounded closed convex andSis a nonexpansive mapping ofCinto itself, thenFSis nonempty9. We denote weak convergence and strong convergence by notationsand →, respectively. A mappingAofCintoHis called monotone if
Ax−Ay, x−y≥0, 1.9
for allx, y∈C. A mappingAofCintoHis calledα-inverse-strongly monotone if there exists a positive real numberαsuch that
Ax−Ay, x−y≥αAx−Ay2, 1.10
for allx, y∈C. It is obvious that anyα-inverse-strongly monotone mappingAis monotone and Lipschitz continuous mapping. A linear bounded operatorAis strongly positive if there exists a constantγ >0 with the property
Ax, x ≥γx2, 1.11
for all x ∈ H. A self mapping f : C → Cis a contractions onC if there exists a constant α∈0,1such that
fx−fy≤αx−y, 1.12
for allx, y ∈ C. We use C to denote the collection of all contraction on C. Note that each f∈ Chas a unique fixed point inC.
LetB:H → Hbe a single-valued nonlinear mapping andM:H → 2Ha set-valued
mapping. The variational inclusion problem is to findx∈Hsuch that
θ∈Bx Mx, 1.13
whereθis the zero vector inH. The set of solutions of problem1.13is denoted byIB, M. The variational inclusion has been extensively studied in the literature, see, for example,10–
13and the reference therein.
A set-valued mappingM:H → 2His called monotone if for allx, y ∈H,f ∈Mx,
and g ∈ Myimply x−y, f −g ≥ 0. A monotone mapping Mis maximal if its graph GM : {f, x ∈H×H : f ∈Mx}ofMis not properly contained in the graph of any other monotone mapping. It is known that a monotone mappingMis maximal if and only if, forx, f∈H×H,x−y, f−g ≥0 for ally, g∈GMimplyf∈Mx.
LetBbe an inverse-strongly monotone mapping ofCintoH, and letNCvbe normal
cone toCatv∈C, that is,NCv{w∈H:v−u, w ≥0,∀u∈C}, and define

LetM:H → 2Hbe a set-valued maximal monotone mapping; then the single-valued
mappingJM,λ:H → Hdefined by
JM,λx IλM−1x, x∈H 1.15
is called the resolvent operator associated with M, whereλis any positive number and I is the identity mapping. It is worth mentioning that the resolvent operator is nonexpansive, 1-inverse-strongly monotone and that a solution of problem 1.13 is a fixed point of the operatorJM,λI−λBfor allλ >015.
In 2000, Moudafi16introduced the viscosity approximation method for nonexpan-sive mapping and proved that, ifHis a real Hilbert space, the sequence{xn}defined by the iterative method below, with the initial guessx0∈C, is chosen arbitrarily,
xn1αnfxn 1−αnSxn, n≥0, 1.16
where{αn} ⊂ 0,1satisfies certain conditions and converges strongly to a fixed point ofS
sayx∈Cwhich is the unique solution of the following variational inequality:
I−fx, x−x≥0, ∀x∈FS. 1.17
In 2006, Marino and Xu8introduced a general iterative method for nonexpansive mapping. They defined the sequence{xn}generated by the algorithmx0∈C:
xn1αnγfxn I−αnASxn, n≥0, 1.18
where{αn} ⊂ 0,1andAis a strongly positive linear bounded operator. They proved that, if C H and the sequence {αn} satisfies appropriate conditions, then the sequence {xn} generated by1.18converges strongly to a fixed point ofSsayx∈Hwhich is the unique solution of the following variational inequality:
A−γfx, x−x ≥0, ∀x∈FS, 1.19
which is the optimality condition for the minimization problem

For finding a common element of the set of fixed points of nonexpansive mappings and the set of solution of the variational inequalities, letPCbe the projection ofHontoC. In
2005, Iiduka and Takahashi17introduced following iterative process forx0∈C:
xn1αnu 1−αnSPCxn−λnAxn, ∀n≥0, 1.21
where u ∈ C, {αn} ⊂ 0,1, and{λn} ⊂ a, b for some a, b with 0 < a < b < 2β. They proved that under certain appropriate conditions imposed on{αn}and{λn}, the sequence
{xn}generated by1.21converges strongly to a common element of the set of fixed points of nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for an inverse-strongly monotone mappingsayx∈Cwhich solve some variational inequality

In 2011, Tan and Chang12introduced following iterative process for{Tn :C → C}

where {αn} ⊂ 0,1, λ ∈ 0,2α, and μ ∈ 0,2β. The sequence {xn} defined by 1.24
converges strongly to a common element of the set of fixed points of nonexpansive mapping, the set of solutions of the variational inequality, and the generalized equilibrium problem.

2. Preliminaries
LetHbe a real Hilbert space andCa nonempty closed convex subset ofH. Recall that the
nearest point projection PC fromH onto C assigns to each x ∈ H the unique point in
PCx∈Csatisfying the property
x−PCxmin
y∈Cx−y. 2.1
The following characterizes the projectionPC. We recall some lemmas which will be needed
in the rest of this paper.
Lemma 2.1. The functionu∈Cis a solution of the variational inequality1.5if and only ifu∈C
satisfies the relationuPCu−λΨufor allλ >0.
Lemma 2.2. For a givenz∈H,u∈C,uPCz⇔ u−z, v−u ≥0, for allv∈C.
It is well known thatPCis a firmly nonexpansive mapping ofHontoCand satisfies
PCx−PCy2≤
PCx−PCy, x−y

Moreover,PCxis characterized by the following properties:PCx∈Cand, for allx∈H,y∈C,
x−PCx, y−PCx
≤0. 2.3
Lemma 2.3see19. LetM:H → 2Hbe a maximal monotone mapping, and letB:H → Hbe
a monotone and Lipshitz continuous mapping. Then the mappingLMB:H → 2His a maximal
monotone mapping.
Lemma 2.4see20. Each Hilbert spaceH satisfies Opial’s condition, that is, for any sequence
{xn} ⊂Hwithxn x, the inequality lim infn→ ∞xn−x<lim infn→ ∞xn−yholds for each
y∈Hwithy /x.
Lemma 2.5see21. Assume that{an}is a sequence of nonnegative real numbers such that
an1≤

where{γn} ⊂0,1and{δn}is a sequence inRsuch that
i∞n1γn∞,
iilim supn→ ∞δn/γn≤0 or
∞
n1|δn|<∞.
Then limn→ ∞an0.
Lemma 2.6see22. LetCbe a closed convex subset of a real Hilbert spaceH, and letT :C → C
be a nonexpansive mapping. ThenI−Tis demiclosed at zero, that is,
xn x, xn−Txn−→0 2.5
For solving the generalized mixed equilibrium problem, let us assume that the bifunctionF : C×C → R, the nonlinear mapping Ψ : C → H is continuous monotone, andϕ:C → Rsatisfies the following conditions:
A1Fx, x 0 for allx∈C;
A2Fis monotone, that is,Fx, y Fy, x≤0 for anyx, y∈C;
A3for each fixedy∈C,x→Fx, yis weakly upper semicontinuous;
A4for each fixedx∈C,y→Fx, yis convex and lower semicontinuous;
B1for eachx∈Candr >0, there exist a bounded subsetDx⊆Candyx ∈Csuch that,
for anyz∈C\Dx,

B2Cis a bounded set.
Lemma 2.7see23. LetC be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert spaceH. Let
F :C×C → Rbe a bifunction mapping satisfying (A1)–(A4), and letϕ :C → Rbe convex and lower semicontinuous such thatC∩domϕ /∅. Assume that either (B1) or (B2) holds. Forr >0 and x∈H, there existsu∈Csuch that

Define a mappingKr :H → Cas follows:
Krx

2.8
for allx∈H. Then, the following hold:
iKris single valued;
iiKris firmly nonexpansive, that is, for anyx, y∈H, Krx−Kry2 ≤ Krx−Kry, x−y;
iiiFKr MEPF, ϕ;
ivMEPF, ϕis closed and convex.
Lemma 2.8see8. Assume that Ais a strongly positive linear bounded operator on a Hilbert
spaceHwith coefficientγ >0 and 0< ρ≤ A−1; thenI−ρA ≤1−ργ.
3. Strong Convergence Theorems
Theorem 3.1. Let H be a real Hilbert space, C a closed convex subset ofH, B,Ψ : C → H
beβ,σ-inverse-strongly monotone mappings, respectively. Letϕ : C → Rbe a convex and lower semicontinuous function,f :C → Ca contraction with coefficientα0< α <1,M:H → 2Ha

Ω:FS∩GMEPF, ϕ,Ψ∩IB, M/∅. 3.1
Suppose that{xn}is a sequences generated by the following algorithm forx0 ∈Carbitrarily:

C2{rn} ⊂c, dwithc, d∈0,2σand∞n1|rn1−rn|<∞,
C3λ∈0,2β.
Then{xn} converges strongly toq ∈ Ω, whereq PΩγf I −Aq which solves the

Proof. Due to condition C1, we may assume without loss of generality, then, that αn ∈
0,A−1for alln. ByLemma 2.8, we have thatI−α
nA ≤ 1−αnγ. Next, we will assume
thatI−A ≤ 1−γ.
Next, we will divide the proof into six steps.
Step 1. We will show that{xn},{un}are bounded.
SinceB,Ψareβ,σ-inverse-strongly monotone mappings, we have that
I−λBx−I−λBy2
x−y−λBx−By2
x−y2−2λx−y, Bx−Byλ2Bx−By2
≤x−y2λλ−2βBx−By2
≤x−y2.
In a similar way, we can obtain
I−rnΨx−I−rnΨy2≤x−y2. 3.6
It is clear that if 0< λ <2β, 0< rn<2σ, thenI−λB,I−rnΨare all nonexpansive.
PutynJM,λun−λBun,n≥0. It follows that

Hence, we have that
yn−q≤xn−q. 3.9

Therefore{xn}is bounded, so are{yn},{Syn},{Bun},{fxn}, and{ASyn}.

SinceI−λBare nonexpansive, we also have that

So

By conditionC1, limn→ ∞xn−xn10, limn→ ∞Ψxn−Ψq0, and limn→ ∞Bun−Bq0.
So, we have thatxn−un → 0,un−yn → 0 asn → ∞. It follows that
xn−yn≤ xn−unun−yn−→0, asn−→ ∞. 3.38
From3.2, we have that

3.39
By conditionC1and limn→ ∞yn−1−yn 0, we obtain thatxn−Syn → 0 asn → ∞.
Next, we observe that

3.40
Since{ASyn}is bounded and by conditionC1, we have thatxn1−Syn → 0 asn → ∞, and
xn−Syn≤ xn−xn1xn1−Syn. 3.41
Since limn→ ∞xn−xn10 and limn→ ∞xn1−Syn0, it implies thatxn−Syn → 0 as
n → ∞. Hence, we have that
xn−Sxn ≤xn−SynSyn−Sxn
≤xn−Synyn−xn.
By3.38and limn→ ∞xn−Syn 0, we obtainxn−Sxn → 0 asn → ∞. Moreover, we
also have that
yn−Syn≤yn−xnxn−Syn. 3.43
By3.38and limn→ ∞xn−Syn0, we obtainyn−Syn → 0 asn → ∞.
Step 5. We show that q ∈ Ω : FS∩GMEPF, ϕ,Ψ∩IB, M and lim supn→ ∞γf − Aq, Syn −q ≤ 0. It is easy to see that PΩγf I −Ais a contraction of H into itself.
Indeed, since 0< γ < γ/α, we have that
PΩγf I−Ax−PΩγf I−Ay≤γf I−Ax−γf−I−Ay
≤γfx−fyI−Ax−y
≤γαx−y1−γx−y
≤1−γγαx−y.
3.44
HenceHis complete, and there exists a unique fixed pointq∈Hsuch thatqPΩγf I−
Aq. ByLemma 2.2, we obtain thatγf−Aq, w−q ≤0 for allw∈Ω.
Next, we show that lim supn→ ∞γf−Aq, Syn−q ≤0, whereqPΩγfI−Aq
is the unique solution of the variational inequalityγf−Aq, p−q ≥0, for allp∈Ω. We can choose a subsequence{yni}of{yn}such that
lim sup
n→ ∞
γf−Aq, Syn−q lim

. 3.45
As{yni}is bounded, there exists a subsequence{ynij}of{yni}which converges weakly tow.
We may assume without loss of generality thatyni w.
We claim thatw∈Ω. Sinceyn−Syn → 0,xn−Sxn → 0, andxn−yn → 0 and
byLemma 2.6, we have thatw∈FS.
Next, we show thatw∈GMEPF, ϕ,Ψ. SinceunKrnxn−rnΨxn, we know that

It follows byA2that

3.49
Fromuni−xni → 0, we have thatΨuni −Ψxni → 0. Further, fromA4and the weakly
lower semicontinuity ofϕ,uni−xni/rni → 0 anduni w, we have that
yt−w,Ψyt

Lettingt → 0, we have, for eachy∈C, that
Fw, yϕy−ϕw y−w,Ψw ≥0. 3.53
This implies thatw∈GMEPF, ϕ,Ψ.
Lastly, we show thatw∈IB, M. In fact, sinceBis aβ-inverse-strongly monotone,B is monotone and Lipschitz continuous mapping. It follows fromLemma 2.3thatMBis a maximal monotone. Letv, g∈GMB, sinceg−Bv∈Mv. Again sinceyni JM,λuni−
λBuni, we have thatuni−λBuni ∈IλMyni, that is,1/λuni−yni−λBuni∈Myni. By
virtue of the maximal monotonicity ofMB, we have that

It follows from the maximal monotonicity ofBMthatθ∈MBw, that is,w∈IB, M. Therefore,w∈Ω. It follows that

Since{xn}is bounded, whereη ≥ γfxn−Aq2 −2ASyn−qγfxn−Aq

whereςn 2Syn −q, γfq−Aqηαn. By lim supn→ ∞γf −Aq, Syn −q ≤ 0, we get
lim supn→ ∞ςn ≤ 0. ApplyingLemma 2.5, we can conclude thatxn → q. This completes the
proof.

Remark 3.5. InCorollary 3.4we generalize and improve the result of Klin-eam and Suantai
4. Applications
In this section, we apply the iterative scheme 1.25 for finding a common fixed point of nonexpansive mapping and strictly pseudocontractive mapping and also applyTheorem 3.1
for finding a common fixed point of nonexpansive mappings and inverse-strongly monotone mappings.
Definition 4.1. A mapping T : C → C is called strictly pseudocontraction if there exists a constant 0≤κ <1 such that
Tx−Ty2≤
x−y2κI−Tx−I−Ty2, ∀x, y∈C. 4.1
If κ 0, then S is nonexpansive. In this case, we say that T : C → C is a κ-strictly pseudocontraction. PuttingBI−T. Then, we have that
I−Bx−I−By2 ≤
x−y2κBx−By2, ∀x, y∈C. 4.2
Observe that
I−Bx−I−By2x−y2Bx−By2−2x−y, Bx−By, ∀x, y∈C. 4.3
Hence, we obtain
x−y, Bx−By≥ 1−κ
2 Bx−By 2
, ∀x, y∈C. 4.4
Then,Bis1−κ/2-inverse-strongly monotone mapping.
UsingTheorem 3.1, we first prove a strong convergence theorem for finding a common fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping and a strict pseudocontraction.
Theorem 4.2. LetHbe a real Hilbert space,Ca closed convex subset ofH,B,Ψ :C → Hbeβ,
σ-inverse-strongly monotone mappings,ϕ : C → Ra convex and lower semicontinuous function,
f :C → Ca contraction with coefficientα0 < α <1, andAa strongly positive linear bounded operator ofHinto itself with coefficientγ >0. Assume that 0 < γ < γ/α. LetSbe a nonexpansive mapping ofCinto itself, and letT be aκ-strictly pseudocontraction ofCinto itself such that
Ω:FS∩FT∩GMEPF, ϕ,Ψ/∅. 4.5
Suppose that{xn}is a sequence generated by the following algorithm forx0, un∈Carbitrarily:
