Abstract

Let E be a reflexive Banach space with a uniformly Gâteaux differentiable norm, let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of E, and let T:KK be a uniformly continuous pseudocontraction. If f:KK is any contraction map on K and if every nonempty closed convex and bounded subset of K has the fixed point property for nonexpansive self-mappings, then it is shown, under appropriate conditions on the sequences of real numbers {αn}, {μn}, that the iteration process z1K, zn+1=μn(αnTzn+(1αn)zn)+(1μn)f(zn), n, strongly converges to the fixed point of T, which is the unique solution of some variational inequality, provided that K is bounded.
