Abstract

In the setting of Hilbert spaces, we introduce a relaxed hybrid steepest descent method for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping, the set of solutions of a variational inequality for an inverse strongly monotone mapping and the set of solutions of generalized mixed equilibrium problems. We prove the strong convergence of the method to the unique solution of a suitable variational inequality. The results obtained in this article improve and extend the corresponding results.

1. Introduction

LetHbe a real Hilbert space,Cbe a nonempty closed convex subset ofHand letPC

be the metric projection of Honto the closed convex subset C. LetS : C® Cbe a nonexpansivemapping, that is, ||Sx -Sy||≤ ||x-y|| for all x,y ÎC. We denote byF (S) the set fixed point ofS. IfC⊂His nonempty, bounded, closed and convex andS is a nonexpansive mapping ofCinto itself, thenF(S) is nonempty; see, for example, [1,2]. A mapping f:C® Cis acontraction onCif there exists a constanthÎ (0, 1) such that ||f(x) -f(y)|| ≤h||x- y|| for allx,y Î C. In addition, let D: C® Hbe a nonlinear mapping,:C®ℝ∪{+∞} be a real-valued function and letF:C×C®ℝ be a bifunction such thatC∩dom≠∅, whereℝis the set of real numbers and dom

= {xÎ C:(x)<+∞}.

Thegeneralized mixed equilibrium problemfor findingxÎCsuch that

F(x, y) +Dx, yx+ϕ(y)−ϕ(x)≥0, ∀yC. (1:1)

The set of solutions of (1.1) is denoted by GMEP(F,,D), that is,

GMEP (F, ϕ, D) ={xC:F(x, y) +Dx, yx+ϕ(y)−ϕ(x)≥0, ∀yC}.

We find that ifxis a solution of a problem (1.1), thenxÎdom.

IfD = 0, then the problem (1.1) is reduced into themixed equilibrium problem which is denoted by MEP(F,).

(2)

If = 0, then the problem (1.1) is reduced into the generalized equilibrium problem which is denoted by GEP(F,D).

If D= 0 and= 0, then the problem (1.1) is reduced into theequilibrium problem which is denoted by EP(F).

If F= 0 and= 0, then the problem (1.1) is reduced into thevariational inequality problemwhich is denoted by VI(C,D).

The generalized mixed equilibrium problems include, as special cases, some optimi-zation problems, fixed point problems, variational inequality problems, Nash equili-brium problems in noncooperative games, equiliequili-brium problem, Numerous problems in physics, economics and others. Some methods have been proposed to solve the pro-blem (1.1); see, for instance, [3,4] and the references therein.

Definition 1.1. LetB:C®Hbe nonlinear mappings. Then,Bis called

(1)monotone if〈Bx-By, x- y〉≥0,∀x,yÎC,

(2)b-inverse-strongly monotone if there exists a constantb> 0 such that

BxBy, xyβ||BxBy||2, ∀x, yC.

(3) A set-valued mappingQ:H®2His calledmonotoneif for allx,yÎ H, fÎ Qx andgÎQyimply〈x-y,f-g〉≥0. A monotone mappingQ:H®2His called max-imalif the graph G(Q) of Qis not properly contained in the graph of any other monotone mapping. It is well known that a monotone mapping Qis maximal if and only if for (x,f) ÎH×H,〈x-y,f- g〉≥0 for every (y,g) ÎG(Q) impliesfÎQx.

A typical problem is to minimize a quadratic function over the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping defined on a real Hilbert space H:

min xF

2Ax, xx, b,

where Fis the fixed point set of a nonexpansive mappingSdefined on Handbis a given point inH.

A linear-bounded operator Aisstrongly positiveif there exists a constantγ >¯ 0with the property

Ax, x ≥ ¯γ||x||2, ∀xH.

Recently, Marino and Xu [5] introduced a new iterative scheme by the viscosity approximation method:

xn+1=εnγf(xn) + (1−εnA)Sxn. (1:2)

They proved that the sequences {xn} generated by (1.2) converges strongly to the

unique solution of the variational inequality

(3)

which is the optimality condition for the minimization problem:

min xF(S)

2Ax, xh(x),

wherehis a potential function forgf.

For finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of variational inequalities for a ξ-inverse-strongly monotone mapping, Takahashi and Toyoda [6] introduced the following iterative scheme:

x0∈C chosen arbitrary,

xn+1=γnxn+ (1−γn)SPC(xnαnBxn), ∀n≥0,

(1:3)

where Bis a ξ-inverse-strongly monotone mapping, {gn} is a sequence in (0, 1), and

{an} is a sequence in (0, 2ξ). They showed that ifF(S) ∩VI(C,B) is nonempty, then

the sequence {xn} generated by (1.3) converges weakly to somezÎF(S)∩VI(C,B).

The method of the steepest descent, also known as The Gradient Descent, is the simplest of the gradient methods. By means of simple optimization algorithm, this popular method can find the local minimum of a function. It is a method that is widely popular among mathematicians and physicists due to its easy concept.

For finding a common element of F(S)∩ VI(C, B), let S: H® Hbe nonexpansive mappings, Yamada [7] introduced the following iterative scheme called thehybrid stee-pest descent method:

xn+1=SxnαnμBSxn, ∀n≥1, (1:4)

where x1 =x Î H, {an}⊂ (0, 1),B :H ® His a strongly monotone and Lipschitz

continuous mapping andμis a positive real number. He proved that the sequence {xn}

generated by (1.4) converged strongly to the unique solution of theF(S)∩VI(C,B). On the other hand, for finding an element of F(S)∩ VI(C, B)∩EP(F), Su et al. [8] introduced the following iterative scheme by the viscosity approximation method in Hilbert spaces:x1ÎH

F(un, y) + r1nyun, unxn ≥0, yC,

xn+1=αnf(xn) + (1−αn)SPC(unλnBun), ∀n≥1,

(1:5)

where an⊂[0, 1) and rn⊂(0, ∞) satisfy some appropriate conditions. Furthermore,

they prove {xn} and {un} converge strongly to the same pointzÎF(S)∩VI(C,B)∩EP

(F), wherez=PF(S)∩VI(C,B)∩EP(F)f(z).

For finding a common element ofF(S)∩GEP(F,D), letCbe a nonempty closed con-vex subset of a real Hilbert space H. LetDbe ab-inverse-strongly monotone mapping ofCintoH, and letSbe a nonexpansive mapping ofCinto itself, Takahashi and Taka-hashi [9] introduced the following iterative scheme:

⎧ ⎪ ⎨ ⎪ ⎩

F(un, y) +Dxn, yun+r1nyun, unxn ≥0, ∀yC,

yn=αnx+ (1−αn)un,

xn+1=γnxn+ (1−γn)Syn, ∀n≥1,

(4)

where {an}⊂[0, 1], {gn}⊂[0, 1] and {rn}⊂[0, 2b] satisfy some parameters

control-ling conditions. They proved that the sequence {xn} defined by (1.6) converges strongly

to a common element ofF(S)∩GEP(F,D).

Recently, Chantarangsi et al. [10] introduced a new iterative algorithm using a viscosity hybrid steepest descent method for solving a common solution of a generalized mixed equilibrium problem, the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of variational inequality problem in a real Hilbert space. Jaiboon [11] suggests and analyzes an iterative scheme based on the hybrid steepest descent method for find-ing a common element of the set of solutions of a system of equilibrium problems, the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of the variational inequality problems for inverse strongly monotone mappings in Hilbert spaces.

In this article, motivated and inspired by the studies mentioned above, we introduce an iterative scheme using a relaxed hybrid steepest descent method for finding a com-mon element of the set of solutions of generalized mixed equilibrium problems, the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and the set of solutions of variational inequal-ity problems for inverse strongly monotone mapping in a real Hilbert space. Our results improve and extend the corresponding results of Jung [12] and some others.

2. Preliminaries

Throughout this article, we always assume Hto be a real Hilbert space, and letCbe a nonempty closed convex subset of H. For a sequence {xn}, the notation of xn⇀ xand xn® xmeans that the sequence {xn} converges weakly and strongly tox, respectively.

For every pointxÎH, there exists a unique nearest point inC, denoted byPCx, such that ||xPCx|| ≤ ||xy||, ∀xC.

Such a mapping PCfromHontoCis called the metric projection.

The following known lemmas will be used in the proof of our main results.

Lemma 2.1.Let H be a real Hilbert spaces H. Then, the following identities hold:

(i)for each xÎH and x*ÎC, x* =PCx⇔〈x- x*,y- x*〉≤0,∀yÎC;

(ii)PC:H®C is nonexpansive, that is, ||PCx-PCy||≤||x- y||,∀x,yÎH;

(iii)PCis firmly nonexpansive, that is, ||PCx- PCy||2 ≤〈PCx-PCy,x-y〉,∀x,yÎH;

(iv) ||tx+ (1 -t)y||2=t||x||2+ (1 -t)||y||2 -t(1 -t)||x- y||2,∀tÎ[0, 1],∀x,yÎH; (v) ||x+y||2 ≤||x||2+ 2〈y,x+y〉.

Lemma 2.2. [2]Let H be a Hilbert space, let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of H, and let B be a mapping of C into H. Let x*ÎC. Then, forl>0,

x∗∈VI(C, B)⇔x∗=PC(x∗−λBx∗),

where PCis the metric projection of H onto C.

Lemma 2.3. [2]Let H be a Hilbert space, and let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of H. Letb>0,and let A:C®H beb-inverse strongly monotone. If0<ϱ≤2b, then I -ϱA is a nonexpansive mapping of C into H, where I is the identity mapping on H.

(5)

Proof. For anyx, yÎCand 0<an≤2ξ, we have (SαnBS)x−(SαnBS)y

=||(SxSy)−αn(BSxBSy)||2 =||Sx−Sy||22α

nSx−Sy, BSxBSy+αn2||BSx−BSy||2

2αnξ||BSx−BSy||+α2n||BSx−BSy||2 =||x−y||2+αn(αn−2ξ)||BSx−BSy||2

≤ ||x−y||2.

Hence, S-anBSis a nonexpansive mapping ofCintoH.□

Lemma 2.5. [13]Let B be a monotone mapping of C into H and let NCw1 be the

nor-mal cone to C at w1 Î C, that is, NCw1 = {w Î H: 〈w1 - w2, w〉 ≥0, ∀w2 Î C}and

define a mapping Q on C by

Qw1=

Bw1+NCw1, w1∈C;

∅, w1∈C.

Then, Q is maximal monotone and0 ÎQw1if and only if w1Î VI(C,B).

Lemma 2.6. [14]Each Hilbert space H satisfies Opial’s condition, that is, for any sequence{xn}⊂H with xn⇀x, the inequality

lim inf

n→∞ ||xnx||<lim infn→∞ ||xny||

holds for each yÎH with y ≠x.

Lemma 2.7. [5]Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of H and let f be a contrac-tion of H into itself with coefficient hÎ (0, 1)and A be a strongly positive

linear-bounded operator on H with coefficientγ >¯ 0.Then, for0< γ < γη¯,

xy, (Aγf)x−(Aγf)y ≥(γ¯−ηγ)||xy||2, x, yH.

That is, A-gf is strongly monotone with coefficientγ¯−ηγ.

Lemma 2.8. [5]Assume A to be a strongly positive linear-bounded operator on H with coefficientγ >¯ 0and0<r≤||A||-1. Then,||IρA|| ≤1−ργ¯.

For solving the generalized mixed equilibrium problem and the mixed equilibrium problem, let us give the following assumptions for the bifunctionF, the functionand the setC:

(H1)F(x,x) = 0,∀xÎ C;

(H2)Fis monotone, that is, F(x,y) +F(y,x)≤0 ∀x,y ÎC; (H3) for eachyÎC,xaF(x,y) is weakly upper semicontinuous; (H4) for eachxÎ C, yaF(x,y) is convex;

(H5) for eachxÎ C, yaF(x,y) is lower semicontinuous;

(B1) for each xÎ H and l>0, there exist abounded subset Gx ⊆C and yx Î C

such that for anyzÎC\n Gx,

F(z, yx) +ϕ(yx)−ϕ(z) +1λyxz, zx<0; (2:1)

(B2)Cis a bounded set.

(6)

define a mappingT(λF,ϕ):HCas follows:

Tλ(F,ϕ)(x) =

zC: F(z, y) +ϕ(y)−ϕ(z) +1

λyz, zx ≥0, yC

, ∀zH.

Then, the following properties hold:

(i)For each xÎ H,Tλ(F,ϕ)(x)=∅;

(ii)T(λF,ϕ)is single-valued;

(iii)Tλ(F,ϕ)is firmly nonexpansive, that is, for any x,y ÎH,

||T(λF,ϕ)xTλ(F,ϕ)y||2≤Tλ(F,ϕ)xTλ(F,ϕ)y, xy;

(iv)F(Tλ(F,ϕ)) =MEP(F, ϕ);

(v)MEP(F,)is closed and convex.

Lemma 2.10. [16]Assume {an}to be a sequence of nonnegative real numbers such that

an+1≤(1−bn)an+cn, n≥0,

where {bn}is a sequence in (0, 1)and{cn}is a sequence inℝsuch that

(1)∞n=1bn=∞, (2)lim supn−∞cn

bn ≤0or

n=1|cn|<

Then, limn®∞an= 0.

3. Main results

In this section, we are in a position to state and prove our main results.

Theorem 3.1. Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H. Let F be bifunction from C×C toℝsatisfying (H1)-(H5), and let : C®ℝ∪{+∞}be a proper lower semicontinuous and convex function with either (B1) or (B2). Let B, D be two ξ,b-inverse strongly monotone mapping of C into H, respectively, and let S: C ® C be a nonexpansive mapping. Let f: C® C be a contraction mapping withhÎ(0, 1), and let A be a strongly positive linear-bounded operator withγ >¯ 0and0< γ < γη¯.

Assume that Θ:= F(S)∩ VI(C, B) ∩GMEP(F, , D)≠∅. Let {xn}, {yn}and {un} be sequences generated by the following iterative algorithm:

⎧ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎨ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎩

x1=xC chosen arbitrary,

un=Tλ(Fn,ϕ)(xnλnDxn),

yn=βnγf(xn) + (IβnA)PC(SunαnBSun),

xn+1= (1−δn)yn+δnPC(SynαnBSyn), ∀n≥1,

(3:1)

(7)

(C1) limn®∞bn= 0and

n=1βn=∞,

(C2) {δn}⊂[0,b],for some bÎ(0, 1)andlimn®∞|δn+1-δn| = 0,

(C3) {ln}⊂[c,d]⊂(0, 2b)andlimn®∞|ln+1-ln| = 0,

(C4) {an}⊂[e,g]⊂(0, 2ξ)andlimn®∞|an+1-an| = 0.

Then, {xn}converges strongly to z ÎΘ,which is the unique solution of the variational inequality

γf(z)−Az, xz ≤0, ∀x. (3:2)

Proof. We may assume, in view of bn ® 0 as n ® ∞, that bn Î (0, ||A||-1). By

Lemma 2.8, we obtain||IβnA|| ≤1−βnγ¯,∀nÎN.

We divide the proof of Theorem 3.1 into six steps.

Step 1. We claim that the sequence {xn} is bounded.

Now, letpÎΘ. Then, it is clear that

p=Sp=PC(pαnBp) =Tλ(Fn,ϕ)(pλnDp).

Letun=Tλ(Fn,ϕ)(xnλnDxn)∈domϕ,Dbe b-inverse strongly monotone and 0≤ln ≤2b. Then, we have

||unp|| ≤ ||xnp||. (3:3)

Let zn=PC(Sun-anBSun) andS- anBSbe a nonexpansive mapping. Then, we have

from Lemma 2.4 that

||znp|| ≤ ||unp|| ≤ ||xnp|| (3:4)

and

||ynp|| ≤ βn||γf(xn)−Ap||+||1−βnA||||znp||

βn||γf(xn)−Ap||+ (1−βnγ¯)||znp||

βnγ||f(xn)−f(p)||+βn||γf(p)−Ap||+ (1−βnγ¯)||xnp||

βnγ η||xnp||+βn||γf(p)−Ap||+ (1−βnγ¯)||xnp||

= (1−(γ¯−ηγ)βn)||xnp||+βn||γf(p)−Ap||.

Similarly, and letwn=PC(Syn-anBSyn) in (3.4). Then, we can prove that

||wnp|| ≤ ||ynp|| ≤(1−(γ¯−ηγ)βn)||xnp||+βn||γf(p)−Ap||, (3:5)

which yields that

||xn+1−p|| ≤(1−δn)||ynp||+δn||wnp||

≤(1−δn)||ynp||+δn||ynp|| =||ynp|||

≤(1−(γ¯−ηγ)βn)||xnp||+βn||γf(p)−Ap||

||xnp||, ||γ

f(p)−Ap|| (γ¯−ηγ)

≤. . .

≤max

||x1−p||, ||γf(p)−Ap|| (γ¯−ηγ)

(8)

This shows that {xn} is bounded. Hence, {un}, {zn}, {yn}, {wn}, {BSun}, {BSyn}, {Azn} and

{f(xn)} are also bounded.

We can choose some appropriate constantM >0 such that

M≥max

sup n≥1{||

.

(3:6)

Step 2. We claim that limn®∞||xn+1-xn|| = 0.

It follows from Lemma 2.9 that un−1=Tλ(Fn−1,ϕ)(xn−1−λn−1Dxn−1) and

un=Tλ(Fn,ϕ)(xnλnDxn)for all n≥1, and we get

F(un−1, y)+ϕ(y)−ϕ(un−1)+Dxn−1, yun−1+ 1 λn−1

yun−1, un−1−xn−1 ≥0, ∀yC(3:7)

and

F(un, y) +ϕ(y)−ϕ(un) +Dxn, yun+ 1 λn

yun, unxn ≥0, ∀yC.(3:8)

Takey =un-1 in (3.8) andy=unin (3.7), and then we have

F(un−1, un)+ϕ(un)−ϕ(un−1)+Dxn−1, unun−1+ 1

λn−1

unun−1, un−1−xn−1 ≥0

and

F(un, un−1) +ϕ(un−1)−ϕ(un) +Dxn, un−1−un+

λn

un−1−un, unxn ≥0.

Adding the above two inequalities, the monotonicity ofFimplies that

≥0

and

0≤

un−1−un, λn−1(DxnDxn−1) + λn−1 λn

unun−1, un−1−un+

1−λn−1 λn

(unxn) + (xnλn−1Dxn)

−(xn−1−λn−1Dxn−1) .

Without loss of generality, let us assume that there existscÎ ℝsuch that ln> c >0, ∀n≥1. Then, we have

||unun−1||2≤ ||unun−1||

||xnxn−1||+1−λλn−1n ||unxn||

and hence,

||unun−1|| ≤ ||xnxn−1||+

(3:9)

Since S-anBSis nonexpansive for eachn≥1, we have

||znzn−1||=||PC(SunαnBSun)−PC(Sun−1−αn−1BSun−1)|| ≤ ||(SunαnBSun)−(Sun−1−αn−1BSun−1)||

=||(SunαnBSun)−(Sun−1−αnBSun−1) + (αn−1−αn)BSun−1||

≤ ||(SunαnBSun)−(Sun−1−αnBSun−1)||+|αn−1−αn|||BSun−1|| ≤ ||unun−1||+|αn−1−αn|||BSun−1||.

(3:10)

Substituting (3.9) into (3.10), we obtain

||znzn−1|| ≤ ||xnxn−1||+

c|λnλn−1|M+|αn−1−αn|||BSun−1||. (3:11)

From (3.1), we have

=||βnγ(f(xn)−f(xn−1)) + (βnβn−1)γf(xn−1)

Substituting (3.11) into (3.12) yields

Since wn=PC(Syn-anBSyn) andS- anBSis nonexpansive mapping, we have ||wnwn−1||=||PC(SynαnBSyn)−PC(Syn−1−αn−1BSyn−1)||

Then, we have

||xn+1−xn|| ≤(1−bn)||xnxn−1||+cn, ∀n≥0. (3:16)

From the conditions (C1)-(C4), we find that

lim

n=0

bn=∞ and limsup n→∞ cn≤0.

Therefore, applying Lemma 2.10 to (3.16), we have

lim

n→∞||xn+1−xn||= 0. (3:17)

Step 3. We claim that limn®∞||Swn-wn|| = 0.

For anypÎΘand Lemma 2.4, we obtain

From (3.1) and (3.32), we can compute

(3:34)

which implies that

lim

n→∞||DxnDp||= 0. (3:35)

In addition, from the firmly nonexpansivity ofT(λFn,ϕ), we have

Hence, we obtain

Substituting (3.36) into (3.32) to get

||ynp||2≤(1−βnγ¯)2||unp||2+β2n||γf(xn)−Ap||2+ 2βn(I−βnA)(znp),γf(xn)−Ap

and hence,

+βn2||γf(xn)−Ap||2+ 2βn(IβnA)(znp), γf(xn)−Ap. (3:38)

It follows that

(3:39)

This together with ||xn+1- xn|| ® 0, ||Dxn -Dp|| ® 0,bn® 0 as n® ∞and the

condition onlnimplies that

lim

n→∞||xnun||= 0 and nlim→∞

||xnun||

λn = 0. (3:40)

Consequently, from (3.17) and (3.40)

||xn+1−un|| ≤ ||xn+1−xn||+||xnun|| →0 asn→ ∞. (3:41)

From (3.1) and condition (C1), we have

||ynzn||= ||βnγf(xn) + (1−βnA)znzn|| ≤βn||γf(xn)−Azn|| →0 asn→ ∞.(3:42)

Since S-anBSis nonexpansive mapping(Lemma 2.4), we have ||wnzn||=||PC(SynαnBSyn)−PC(SunαnBSun)||

≤ ||(SαnBS)yn−(SαnBS)un||

≤ ||ynun||.

(3:43)

Next, we will show that ||xn-yn||®0 as n®∞.

We considerxn+1-yn=δn(wn-yn) = δn(wn-zn+zn-yn).

From (3.43), we have

||xn+1−yn|| ≤δn(||wnzn||+||znyn||)

δn(||ynun||+||znyn||)

δn(||xn+1−yn||+||xn+1−un||+||znyn||).

(3:44)

From the condition (C2), (3.41) and (3.42), it follows that

||xn+1−yn|| ≤ δn

1−δn(||

xn+1−un||+||znyn||)≤ b

1−b(||xn+1−un||+||znyn||)→0.(3:45)

From (3.17) and (3.45), we obtain

||xnyn|| ≤ ||xnxn+1||+||xn+1−yn|| →0 asn→ ∞. (3:46)

We observe that

||Swnwn|| ≤ ||SwnSzn||+||SznSyn||+||Synwn||

≤ ||wnzn||+||znyn||+||Synwn||

≤ ||ynun||+||znyn||+||Synwn||

≤ ||ynxn||+||xnun||+||znyn||+||Synwn||.

(15)

Consequently, we obtain

lim

n→∞||Swnwn||= 0. (3:48)

Step 4. We prove that the mapping PΘ(gf+ (I-A)) has a unique fixed point. Let fbe a contraction ofCinto itself with coefficienthÎ(0, 1). Then, we have

P(γf+ (IA))(x)−P(γf+ (IA))(y)≤ ||(γf+ (IA))(x)−(γf+ (IA))(y)||

γ||f(x)−f(y)||+||I −A|| ||xy||

γ η||x−y||+ (1− ¯γ)||x−y|| = (1−(γ¯−ηγ))||x−y||, ∀x,yC.

Since0<1−(γ¯−ηγ)<1, it follows thatPΘ(gf+ (I-A)) is a contraction ofCinto itself. Therefore, by the Banach Contraction Mapping Principle, it has a unique fixed point, sayzÎC, that is,

z=P(γf + (IA))(z).

Step 5. We claim thatq ÎF(S)∩VI(C,B)∩GMEP(F, ,D). First, we show that qÎF(S).

Assume q∉F(S). Sincewniqand q≠Sq, based on Opial’s condition (Lemma 2.6), it follows that

lim inf

i→∞ ||wniq||<lim infi→∞ ||wniSq||

≤lim inf

i→∞ {||wniSwni||+||SwniSq||} = lim inf

i→∞ ||SwniSq||

≤lim inf

i→∞ ||wniq||.

This is a contradiction. Thus, we haveq ÎF(S). Next, we prove that qÎGMEP(F, ,D).

From Lemma 2.9 thatun=Tλ(Fn,ϕ)(xnλnDxn)for all n≥1 is equivalent to

F(un, y) +ϕ(y)−ϕ(un) +Dxn, yun+ 1 λn

yun, unxn ≥0, ∀yC.

From (H2), we also have

ϕ(y)−ϕ(un) +Dxn, yun+ 1 λn

yun, unxn ≥ −F(un, y)≥F(y, un).

Replacingnbyni, we obtain

ϕ(y)−ϕ(uni) +Dxni, yuni+

yuni,

unixni λni

F(y, uni). (3:49)

Let yt=ty+ (1 -t)qfor alltÎ(0, 1] andyÎC. Sincey ÎCand qÎC, we obtainyt

(16)

ytuni, Dytytuni, Dytϕ(yt) +ϕ(uni)− Dxni, ytuni

ytuni,

unixni λni

+F(yt, uni)

ytuni, DytDuni+ytuni, DuniDxniϕ(yt)

+ϕ(uni)− {ytuni,

unixni λni

}+F(yt, uni).

(3:50)

Since||unixni|| →0, i ® ∞we obtain||DuniDxni|| →0. Furthermore, by the monotonicity of D, we have

ytuni, DytDuni ≥0.

Hence, from (H4), (H5) and the weak lower semicontinuity of , uniλnixni →0and

uniq, we have

ytq, Dyt ≥ −ϕ(yt) +ϕ(q) +F(yt, q) asi→ ∞. (3:51)

From (H1), (H4) and (3.51), we also get

0 =F(yt, yt) +ϕ(yt)−ϕ(yt)

tF(yt, y) + (1−t)F(yt, q) +(y) + (1−t)ϕ(q)−ϕ(yt) =t[F(yt, y) +ϕ(y)−ϕ(yt)] + (1−t)[F(yt, q) +ϕ(q)−ϕ(yt)]

t[F(yt, y) +ϕ(y)−ϕ(yt)] + (1−t)ytq, Dyt =t[F(yt, y) +ϕ(y)−ϕ(yt)] + (1−t)tyq, Dyt.

Dividing byt, we get

F(yt, y) +ϕ(y)−ϕ(yt) + (1−t)yq, Dyt ≥0.

Lettingt®0 in the above inequality, we arrive that, for eachyÎ C,

F(q, y) +ϕ(y)−ϕ(q) +yq, Dq ≥0.

This implies that qÎGMEP(F,,D). Finally, we prove thatq ÎVI(C,B).

We define the maximal monotone operator:

Qq1=

Bq1+NCq1, q1∈C,

∅, q1∈C.

Since Bis ξ-inverse strongly monotone and by condition (C4), we have

BxBy, xyξ||Bx− −By||2≥0.

Then, Qis maximal monotone. Let (q1, q2)ÎG(Q). Sinceq2 -Bq1 ÎNCq1 andwnÎ C, we have〈q1 -wn,q2 - Bq1〉≥0. On the other hand, fromwn=PC(Syn-anBSyn), we

have

q1−wn, wn−(SynαnBSyn) ≥0,

that is,

q1−wn,

wnSyn αn

+BSyn

(17)

Therefore, we obtain

q1−wni, q2 ≥ q1−wni, Bq1

(3:52)

Noting that||wniSyni|| →0asi® ∞, we obtain

q1−q, q2 ≥0.

Since Qis maximal monotone, we obtain that qÎ Q-10, and henceq Î VI(C, B). This impliesqÎΘ. Sincez=PΘ(gf+ (I-A))(z), we have

lim sup

n→∞

γf(z)−Az, xnz = lim i→∞

γf(z)−Az,xniz =

γf(z)−Az, qz ≤0.(3:53)

On the other hand, we have

γf(z)−Az, ynz =

γf(z)−Az, ynxn +

γf(z)−Az, xnz

≤ ||γf(z)−Az|| ||ynxn||+

γf(z)−Az, xnz .

From (3.46) and (3.53), we obtain that

lim sup n→∞

γf(z)−Az, ynz ≤0. (3:54)

Step 6. Finally, we claim thatxn®z, wherez=PΘ(gf+ (I-A))(z). We note that

ynz2=||(I −βnA)(znz) +βn(γf(xn)−Az)||2

≤ ||(I−βnA)(znz)||2+ 2βn(γf(xn)−Az), (IβnA)(znz) +βn(γf(xn)−Az)

(3:55)

which implies that

||ynz||2≤

||xnz||2

+ βn

1−γ ηβn

βnγ¯2||xnz||2+ 2γf(z)−Az,ynz

(18)

On the other hand, we have

Setln= (21γ¯γ ηβγ η)nβn anden=1βγ ηβn n

. Then, we have

||xn+1−z||2≤(1−bn)||xnz||2+ cn, ∀n≥0. (3:58)

From the condition (C1) and (3.54), we see that

lim n→∞ln= 0,

n=0

ln=∞ and lim sup n→∞

en≤0.

Therefore, applying Lemma 2.10 to (3.58), we get that {xn} converges strongly tozÎ

This completes the proof. □

Corollary 3.2.Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H, let B beξ-inverse-strongly monotone mapping of C into H, and let S:C®C be a nonex-pansive mapping. Let f:C®C be a contraction mapping withhÎ (0, 1),and let A be

a strongly positive linear-bounded operator withγ >¯ 0and0< γ < γη¯.Assume thatΘ:

=F(S)∩VI(C,B)≠∅.Let{xn}and{yn}be sequence generated by the following iterative algorithm:

⎧ ⎨ ⎩

x1=xC chosen arbitrary,

yn=βnγf(xn) + (IβnA)PC(SxnαnBSxn),

xn+1= (1−δn)yn+δnPC(SynαnBSyn), ∀n≥1,

where {δn}and{bn}are two sequences in(0, 1)satisfying the following conditions:

(C1) limn®∞bn= 0and

n=1βn=∞,

(C2) {δn}⊂[0,b],for some bÎ(0, 1)andlimn®∞|δn+1-δn| = 0,

(C3) {an}⊂[e,g]⊂(0, 2ξ)andlimn®∞|an+1-an| = 0.

Then, {xn}converges strongly to z ÎΘ,which is the unique solution of the variational inequality

γf(z)−Az, xz ≤0, ∀x. (3:59)

Proof. PutF(x,y) ==D= 0 for all x,y Î Candln= 1 for all n≥1 in Theorem

3.1, we get un=xn. Hence, {xn} converges strongly tozÎ Θ, which is the unique

Corollary 3.3. [12]Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H and let F be bifunction from C ×C to ℝsatisfying (H1)-(H5). Let S: C® C be a nonexpansive mapping and let f : C® C be a contraction mapping withhÎ (0, 1). Assume that Θ:=F(S)∩EP(F)≠∅. Let {xn}, {yn}and{un}be sequence generated by the following iterative algorithm:

⎧ ⎨ ⎩

x1=xC chosen arbitrary,

yn=βnf(xn) + (1−βn)STλFnxn,

xn+1= (1−δn)yn+δnSyn, ∀n≥1,

where {δn}and{bn}are two sequences in (0, 1)and{ln}⊂(0, ∞)satisfying the follow-ing conditions:

(C1) limn®∞bn= 0and

n=1βn=∞,

(C2) {δn}⊂[0,b],for some bÎ(0, 1)andlimn®∞|δn+1-δn| = 0,

(C3) limn®∞|ln+1- ln| = 0.

Then, {xn}converges strongly to zÎΘ.

Proof. Put=D= 0,g= 1,A=Iandan= 0 in Theorem 3.1. Then, we havePC(Sun)

=SunandPC(Syn) =Syn. Hence, {xn} generated by (3.60) converges strongly to zÎ Θ.
