Fixed Point Theory and Applications volume 2012, Article number: 99 (2012)
Abstract
We introduce an iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of solutions for systems of equilibrium problems and systems of variational inequalities and the set of common fixed points for an infinite family and left amenable semigroup of nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert spaces. The results presented in this paper mainly extend and improved some well-known results in the literature.

1. Introduction
Let H be a real Hilbert space and let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of H.
Let A: C → H be a nonlinear mapping. The classical variational inequality problem is to fined x ∈ C such that
The set of solution of (1) is denoted by VI(C, A), i.e.,
Recall that the following definitions:
-
(1)
A is called monotone if
-
(2)
A is called α-strongly monotone if there exists a positive constant α such that
-
(3)
A is called μ-Lipschitzian if there exist a positive constant μ such that
-
(4)
A is called α-inverse strongly monotone, if there exists a positive real number α > 0
such that
It is obvious that any α-inverse strongly monotone mapping B is -Lipschitzian.
-
(5)
A mapping T : C → C is called nonexpansive if ∥ Tx - Ty ∥≤∥ x - y ∥ for all x, y ∈ C. Next, we denote by Fix(T) the set of fixed point of T.
-
(6)
A mapping f : C → C is said to be contraction if there exists a coefficient α ∈ (0, 1) such that
-
(7)
A set-valued mapping U : H → 2His called monotone if for all x, y ∈ H, f ∈ Ux and g ∈Uy imply 〈x - y, f - g〉 ≥ 0.
-
(8)
A monotone mapping U : H → 2His maximal if the graph G(U) of U is not properly contained in the graph of any other monotone mapping.
It is known that a monotone mapping U is maximal if and only if for (x, f) ∈ H × H, 〈x - y, f - g〉 ≤ 0 for every (y, g) ∈ G(U) implies that f ∈ Ux. Let B be a monotone mapping of C into H and let N C x be the normal cone to C at x ∈ C, that is, N C x = {y ∈ H : 〈x - z, y〉 ≤ 0, ∀z ∈ C} and define
Then U is the maximal monotone and 0 ∈ Ux if and only if x ∈ VI(C, B); see [1].
Let F be a bi-function of C×C into ℝ, where ℝ is the set of real numbers. The equilibrium problem for F : C × C → ℝ is to determine its equilibrium points, i.e the set
Let be a family of bi-functions from C × C into ℝ. The system of equilibrium problems for is to determine common equilibrium points for , i.e the set
Numerous problems in physics, optimization, and economics reduce into finding some element of EP(F). Some method have been proposed to solve the equilibrium problem; see, for instance [2–5]. The formulation (3), extend this formalism to systems of such problems, covering in particular various forms of feasibility problems [6, 7].
Given any r > 0 the operator defined by
is called the resolvent of F, see [3]. It is shown [3] that under suitable hypotheses on F (to be stated precisely in Sect. 2), is single- valued and firmly nonexpansive and
satisfies
Using this result, in 2007, Yao et al. [8], proposed the following explicit scheme with respect to W-mappings for an infinite family of nonexpansive mappings:
They proved that if the sequences {α n }, {β n }, {γ n } and {r n } of parameters satisfy appropriate conditions, then, the sequences {x n } and both converge strongly to the unique , where . Their results extend and improve the corresponding results announced by Combettes and Hirstoaga [3] and Takahashi and Takahashi [5].
Very recently, Jitpeera et al. [9], introduced the iterative scheme based on viscosity and Cesàro mean
where B : C → H is β-inverse strongly monotone, φ: C → ℝ ∪ {∞} is a proper lower semi-continuous and convex function, Ti: C → C is a nonexpansive mapping for all i = 1, 2, ..., n, {α n }, {β n }, {δ n } ⊂ (0, 1), {λ n } ⊂ (0, 2β) and {r n } ⊂ (0, ∞) satisfy the following conditions
-
(i)
lim n →∞ α n = 0, ,
-
(ii)
lim n →∞ δ n = 0
-
(iii)
0 < lim inf n →∞ β n ≤ lim sup n →∞ β n < 1.
-
(iv)
{λ n } ⊂ [a, b] ⊂ (0, 2β) and lim inf n →∞ | λ n +1 - λ n |= 0,
-
(v)
lim inf n →∞ r n > 0 and lim inf n →∞ | r n +1 - r n |= 0.
They show that if is nonempty, then the sequence {x n } converges strongly to the z = P θ (I - A + γf )z which is the unique solution of the variational inequality
In this paper, motivated and inspired by Yao et al. [8, 10–15], Lau et al. [16], Jitpeera et al. [9], Kangtunyakarn [17] and Kim [18], Atsushiba and Takahashi [19], Saeidi [20], Piri [21–23] and Piri and Badali [24], we introduce the following iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of solutions for a system of equilibrium problems for a family of equilibrium bi-functions, systems of variational inequalities, the set of common fixed points for an infinite family ψ = {T i , i = 1, 2, ...} of nonexpansive mappings and a left amenable semigroup φ = {T t : t ∈ S} of nonexpansive mappings, with respect to W-mappings and a left regular sequence {μ n } of means defined on an appropriate space of bounded real-valued functions of the semigroup
where A: C → H be β-inverse monotone map and B : C → H be δ-inverse monotone map. We prove that under mild assumptions on parameters like that in Yao et al. [8], the sequences {x n } and converge strongly to , where .
Compared to the similar works, our results have the merit of studying the solutions of systems of equilibrium problems, systems of variational inequalities and fixed point problems of amenable semigroup of nonexpansive mappings. Consequence for nonnegative integer numbers is also presented.
2. Preliminaries
Let S be a semigroup and let B(S) be the space of all bounded real valued functions defined on S with supremum norm. For s ∈ S and f ∈ B(S), we define elements l s f and r s f in B(S) by
Let X be a subspace of B(S) containing 1 and let X* be its topological dual. An element μ of X* is said to be a mean on X if ∥ μ ∥ = μ(1) = 1. We often write μ t (f(t)) instead of μ(f) for μ ∈ X* and f ∈ X. Let X be left invariant (respectively right invariant), i.e., l s (X) ⊂ X (respectively r s (X) ⊂ X) for each s ∈ S. A mean μ on X is said to be left invariant (respectively right invariant) if μ(l s f) = μ(f) (respectively μ(r s f) = μ(f)) for each s ∈ S and f ∈ X. X is said to be left (respectively right) amenable if X has a left (respectively right) invariant mean. X is amenable if X is both left and right amenable. As is well known, B(S) is amenable when S is a commutative semigroup, see [25]. A net {μ α } of means on X is said to be strongly left regular if
for each s ∈ S, where is the adjoint operator of l s .
Let S be a semigroup and let C be a nonempty closed and convex subset of a reflexive Banach space E. A family φ = {T t : t ∈ S} of mapping from C into itself is said to be a nonexpansive semigroup on C if T t is nonexpansive and T ts = T t T s for each t, s ∈ S. By Fix(φ) we denote the set of common fixed points of φ, i.e.
Lemma 2.1. [25] Let S be a semigroup and C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a reflexive Banach space E. Let φ = {T t : t ∈ S} be a nonexpansive semigroup on H such that {T t x : t ∈ S} is bounded for some x ∈ C, let X be a subspace of B(S) such that 1 ∈ X and the mapping t → 〈T t x, y*〉 is an element of X for each x ∈ C and y* ∈ E*, and μ is a mean on X. If we write T μ x instead of ∫ T t xdμ(t), then the followings hold.

Let C be a nonempty subset of a Hilbert space H and T : C → H a mapping. Then T is said to be demiclosed at v ∈ H if, for any sequence {x n } in C, the following implication holds:
where → (respectively ⇀) denotes strong (respectively weak) convergence.
Lemma 2.2. [26] Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a Hilbert space H and suppose that T : C → H is nonexpansive. then, the mapping I - T is demiclosed at zero.
Lemma 2.3. [27] For a given x ∈ H, y ∈ C,
It is well known that P C is a firmly nonexpansive mapping of H onto C and satisfies
Moreover, P C is characterized by the following properties: P C x ∈ C and for all x ∈ H, y ∈ C,
It is easy to see that (7) is equivalent to the following inequality
Using Lemma 2.3, one can see that the variational inequality (1) is equivalent to a fixed point problem. It is easy to see that the following is true:
Lemma 2.4. [28] Let {x n } and {y n } be bounded sequences in a Banach space E and let {α n } be a sequence in [0, 1] with . Suppose x n +1 = α n x n +(1-α n )y n for all integers n ≥ 0 and
Then, .
Let F : C × C → ℝ be a bi-function. Given any r > 0, the operator defined by

(A1) F (x, x) = 0 for all x ∈ C,
(A2) F is monotone, i.e, F(x, y) + F(y, x) ≤ 0 for all x, y ∈ C,
(A3) for all x, y, z ∈ C, limt→0F(tz + (1 - t)x, y) ≤ F (x, y),
(A4) for all x ∈ C, y → F(x, y) is convex and lower semi-continuous.
Given r > 0, define the operator , the resolvent of F, by

Let T1, T2, ... be an infinite family of mappings of C into itself and let λ1, λ2, ... be a real numbers such that 0 ≤ λ i < 1 for every i ∈ ℕ. For any n ∈ ℕ, define a mapping W n of C into C as follows:
Such a mapping W n is called the W-mapping generated by T1, T2, ..., T n and λ1, λ2, ..., λ n .

Notation Throughout the rest of this paper the open ball of radius r centered at 0 is denoted by B r . For a subset A of H we denote by the closed convex hull of A. For ε > 0 and a mapping T : D → H, we let F ϵ (T; D) be the set of ϵ-approximate fixed points of T, i.e., F ϵ (T ; D) = {x ∈ D :∥ x - Tx ∥ ≤ ϵ}. Weak convergence is denoted by ⇀ and strong convergence is denoted by →.
3. Strong convergence
Theorem 3.1. Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H, A: C → H a β-inverse strongly monotone, B : C → H a γ-inverse strongly monotone, S a semigroup and φ = {T t : t ∈ S} be a nonexpansive semigroup from C into C such that . Let X be a left invariant subspace of B(S) such that 1 ∈ X, and the function t → 〈T t x, y〉 is an element of X for each x ∈ C and y ∈ H, {μ n } a left regular sequence of means on X such that lim n →∞ ∥μ n +1 - μ n ∥ = 0. Let be a finite family of bi-functions from C × C into ℝ which satisfy (A1)-(A4) and an infinite family of nonexpansive mappings of C into C such that for each i ∈ ℕ and . Let {α n }, {β n }, {γ n } and {η n } be a sequences in (0, 1). Let {ζ n } a sequence in (0, 2β), {δ n } a sequence in (0, 2γ), be sequences in (0, ∞) and {λ n } a sequence of real numbers such that 0 < λ n ≤ b < 1. Assume that,
(B1) lim n →∞ η n = η ∈ (0, 1), lim n →∞ α n = 0 and ,
(B2) 0 < lim inf n →∞ β n ≤ lim sup n →∞ β n < 1,
(B3) α n + β n + γ n = 1,
(B4) lim n →∞ | ζ n +1 - ζ n |= lim n →∞ | δ n +1 - δ n |= 0,
(B5) lim inf n →∞ r k , n > 0 and lim n →∞ (r k , n +1 - r k , n ) = 0 for k ∈ {1, 2, · · ·, M}.
Let f be a contraction of C into itself with coefficient α ∈ (0, 1) and given x1 ∈ C arbitrarily. If the sequences {x n }, {y n } and {z n } are generated iteratively by x1 ∈ C and
then, the sequences {x n }, {y n } and converge strongly to , which is the unique solution of the system of variational inequalities:
Proof. Since A is a β-inverse strongly monotone map, for any x, y ∈ C, we have
It follows that
Since B is a β-inverse strongly monotone map, repeating the same argument as above, we can deduce that
Let , in the context of the variational inequality problem the characterization of projection (9) implies that p = P C (p - ζ n Ap) and p = P C (p - δ n Bp). Using (12) and (13), we get
By taking v n = P C (z n - ζ n Az n ), w n = P C (z n - δ n Bz n ) and for k ∈ {1, 2, ..., M} and for all n ∈ ℕ, we shall equivalently write scheme (11) as follows:
We shall divide the proof into several steps.
Step 1. The sequence {x n } is bounded.
Proof of Step 1. Let . Since for each k ∈ {1, 2, ..., M}, is nonexpansive we have
Thus, by Lemmas 2.1, 2.5 and (14), we have
By induction,
Step 2. Let {u n } be a bounded sequence in H. Then
for every k ∈ {1, 2, ..., M}.
Proof of Step 2. This assertion is proved in [27, Step 2].
Step 3. Let {u n } be a bounded sequence in H. Then
This assertion is proved in [21, Step 3].
Step 4. limn→∞∥ x n +1 - x n ∥ = 0.
Proof of Step 4. Setting x n +1 = β n x n + (1 - β n )t n for all n ≥ 1, we have
Therefore, we have
On the other hand
Observing that , and we get
and
Take y = z n +1 in (17) and y = z n in (18), by using (A2), it follows that
and hence
Thus, we have
Since v n = P C (z n - ζ n Az n ) and w n = P C (z n - δ n Bz n ), it follows from the definition of {y n } that
Therefore,
This together with conditions (B1), (B4), Steps 2 and 3 imply that
Hence by Lemma 2.4, we obtain lim n →∞ ∥ t n - x n ∥ = 0. Consequently,
Step 5. , ∀k ∈ {0, 1, 2, ..., M - 1}.
Proof of Step 5. Let and k ∈ {1, 2, ..., M - 1}. Since is firmly nonexpansive, we obtain
It follows that
Using Lemma 2.9, (14) and (19), we obtain
Then, we have
It is easily seen that lim inf n →∞ γ n > 0. So we have
Step 6. .
Proof of Step 6. Observe that
hence
It follows from conditions (B1), (B2) and Step 4, that
Step 7. limn→∞∥ x n - T t x n ∥ = 0, for all t ∈ S.
Proof of Step 7. Let and set and D = {y ∈ H : ∥ y - p ∥ ≤ M0}, we remark that D is bounded closed convex set, {y n } ⊂ D and it is invariant under , φ and W n for all n ∈ ℕ. We will show that
Let ϵ > 0. By [33, Theorem 1.2], there exists δ > 0 such that
Also by [33, Corollary 1.1], there exists a natural number N such that
for all t, s ∈ S and y ∈ D. Let t ∈ S. Since {μ n } is strongly left regular, there exists N0 ∈ ℕ such that for n ≥ N0 and i = 1, 2, ..., N. Then, we have
By Lemma 2.1 we have
It follows from (21), (22), (23) and (24) that
for all y ∈ D and n ≥ N0. Therefore,
Since ϵ > 0 is arbitrary, we get (20).
Let t ∈ S and ϵ > 0. Then, there exists δ > 0, which satisfies (21). From condition (B1), (20) and Step 6, there exists N1 ∈ ℕ such that , for all y ∈ D and for all n ≥ N1. We note that
for all n ≥ N1. Therefore, we have
for all n ≥ N1. This shows that
Since ϵ > 0 is arbitrary, we get lim n →∞ ∥ x n - T t (x n ) ∥ = 0.
Step 8. The weak ω-limit set of {x n }, ω ω {x n }, is a subset of .
Proof of Step 8. Let z ∈ ω ω {x n } and let be a subsequence of {x n } weakly converging to z, we need to show that . Noting Step 5, with no loss of generality, we may assume that . At first, note that by (A2) and given y ∈ C and k ∈ {1, 2, ..., M}, we have
Step 5 and condition(B5) imply that
Since , from the lower semi-continuity of F k +1 on the second variable, we have F k +1(y, z) ≤ 0 for all y ∈ C and for all k ∈ {0, 1, 2, ..., M - 1}. For t with 0 < t ≤ 1 and y ∈ C, let y t = ty + (1 - t)z. Since y ∈ C and z ∈ C, we have y t ∈ C and hence F k +1(y t , z) ≤ 0. So from the convexity of F k +1 on second variable, we have
hence F k +1(y t , y) ≥ 0. therefore, we have F k +1(z, y) ≥ 0 for all y ∈ C and k ∈ {0, 1, 2, ..., M- 1}. Therefore .
Since , it follows by Step 7 and Lemma 2.2 that z ∈ Fix(T t ) for all t ∈ S. Therefore, z ∈ Fix(φ). We will show z ∈ Fix(W). Assume z ∉ Fix(W) Since , by our assumption, we have T i z ∈ Fix(φ),∀i ∈ ℕ and then W n z ∈ Fix(φ). Hence by Lemma 2.1, , therefore by Lemma 2.5, we get
Now, by (25), Step 6, Lemma 2.6 and Opial's condition, we have
This is a contradiction. So we get .
Now, let us show that z ∈ VI(C, A) ∩ VI(C, B). Observe that,
From (26), we have
which implies that
Therefore, from step 4 and condition B1, we obtain
On the other hand from (26), we have
which implies that
Therefore, from step 4 and condition B1, we obtain
From (6) and (12), we have
So we obtain
By using the same method as (29), we have
From (29), (30) and definition of y n , we have,
By (31), we have
which implies that
and
Therefore, from 0 < lim inf n →∞ γ n ≤ lim sup n →∞ γ n < 1, condition B1, step 4, (27) and (28) we get
Let U : H → 2Hbe a set-valued mapping is defined by
where N C x is the normal cone to C at x ∈ C. Since A is monotone. Thus U is maximal monotone see [1]. Let (x, y) ∈ G(U), hence y - Ax ∈ N C x and since v n = P C (z n - ζ n Az n ) therefore, 〈x - v n , y - Ax〉 ≥ 0. On the other hand from (7), we have
i.e.,
Therefore, we have
From (32), we get . Noting that and A is -lipschitzian, we obtain
Since U is maximal monotone, we have z ∈ U-10, and hence z ∈ VI(C, A). Let V : H → 2Hbe a set-valued mapping is defined by
where N C x is the normal cone to C at x ∈ C. Since B is monotone. Thus U is maximal monotone see [1]. Repeating the same argument as above, we can derive z ∈ VI(C, B). Therefore, .
Step 9. There exists a unique x* ∈ C such that
Proof of Step 9. Note that f is a contraction mapping with coefficient α ∈ (0, 1). Then for all x, y ∈ H. Therefore is a contraction of H into itself, which implies that there exists a unique element x* ∈ H such that . at the same time, we note that x* ∈ C. Using Lemma 2.3, we have
We can choose a subsequence of {x n } such that
Since is bounded, therefore, has subsequence such that . With no loss of generality, we may assume that . Applying Step 8 and (34), we have
Step 10, The sequences {x n } converges strongly to x*, which is obtained in Steep 9.
Proof of Step 10. We have
Which implies that
where
By Step 9, and condition (B1), we get lim sup n →∞ τ n ≤ 0. Now applying Lemma 2.8 to (35), we conclude that x n → x*. Consequently, from , we have , for all k ∈ {1, 2, ..., M}.
Corollary 3.2. (see Yao et al. [8]) Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H, F a bi-functions from C×C into ℝ which satisfy (A1) - (A4) and an infinite family of nonexpansive mapping of C into C such that . Let {α n }, {β n } and {γ n } are three sequences in (0, 1) such that α n + β n + γ n = 1 and {r n } ⊂ (0, ∞). Suppose the following conditions are satisfied:
(B1) lim n →∞ α n = 0 and ,
(B2) 0 < lim inf n →∞ β n ≤ lim sup n →∞ β n < 1,
(B3) lim inf n →∞ r n > 0 and lim n →∞ (r n +1 - r n ) = 0.
Let f be a contraction of C into itself with coefficient α ∈ (0, 1) and given x1 ∈ C arbitrarily. Then the sequence {x n } generated by
converge strongly to , where .
Proof. Take A = B = 0, φ = {I}, F1 = F and F k = 0 for k ∈ {2, ..., M} in Theorem 3.1, then we have and . So from Theorem 3.1 the sequence {x n } converges strongly to , where .
Corollary 3.3. Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H, be a finite family of bi-functions from C × C into ℝ which satisfy (A1)-(A4), T a nonexpansive mappings on C such that . Let {α n }, {β n } and {γ n } are three sequences in (0, 1) such that α n + β n + γ n = 1 and be sequences in (0, ∞). Suppose the following conditions are satisfied:
(B1) lim n →∞ α n = 0 and ,
(B2) 0 < lim inf n →∞ β n ≤ lim sup n →∞ β n < 1,
(B3) lim inf n →∞ r k , n > 0 and lim n →∞ (r k , n +1 - r k , n ) = 0 for k ∈ {1, 2, ..., M}.
Let f be a contraction of H into itself and given x1 ∈ H arbitrarily. If the sequences {x n } generated iteratively by
Then, sequences {x n } and converge strongly to , where .
Proof. Let S = {0, 1, ...}, φ = {Ti: i ∈ S} and T0 = I. For f = (x0, x1, ...) ∈ B(S), define
Then {μ n } is a regular sequence of means on B(S) such that lim n →∞ ∥ μ n + - μ n ∥ = 0; for more details, see [34]. Next for each x ∈ H and n ∈ ℕ, we have
Take A = B = 0, T i = I for all i ∈ ℕ in Theorem 3.1 then we have y n = z n and W n = I for all n ∈ ℕ. Therefore, it follows from Theorem 3.1 that the sequences {x n } and converge strongly, as n → ∞ to a point , where .
Remark 3.4. Theorem 3.1 improve [8, Theorem 1.2] in the following aspects.
-
(a)
Our iterative process (11) is more general than Yao et al. process (14) because it can be applied to solving the problem of finding a common element of the set of solutions of systems of equilibrium problems and systems of variational inequalities.
-
(b)
Our iterative process (11) is very diffident from Yao et al. process (14) because there are left amenable semigroup of nonexpansive mappings.
-
(c)
Our method of proof is very different from the on in Yao et al. [8] for example we use Corollary 1.1 and Theorem 1.2 of Bruck [33] fore the proof of Theorem 3.1.
