ON THE RELAXED HYBRID-EXTRAGRADIENT METHOD FOR SOLVING CONSTRAINED CONVEX MINIMIZATION PROBLEMS IN HILBERT SPACES

In 2006, Nadezhkina and Takahashi [N. Nadezhkina, W. Takahashi, Strong convergence theorem by a hybrid method for nonexpansive mappings and Lipschitz-continuous monotone mappings, SIAM J. Optim., 16(4) (2006), 1230-1241.] introduced an iterative algorithm for finding a common element of the fixed point set of a nonexpansive mapping and the solution set of a variational inequality in a real Hilbert space via combining two well-known methods: hybrid and extragradient. In this paper, motivated by Nadezhkina and Takahashi's hybrid-extragradient method we propose and analyze a relaxed hybrid-extragradient method for finding a solution of a constrained convex minimization problem, which is also a common element of the solution set of a variational inclusion and the fixed point set of a strictly pseudocontractive mapping in a real Hilbert space. We obtain a strong convergence theorem for three sequences generated by this algorithm. Based on this result, we also construct an iterative algorithm for finding a solution of the constrained convex minimization problem, which is also a common fixed point of two mappings taken from the more general class of strictly pseudocontractive mappings.
