Strong convergence of modified Ishikawa iteration for two asymptotically nonexpansive mappings and semigroups

In this paper, we established strong convergence theorems for a common fixed point of two asymptotically nonexpansive mappings and for a common fixed point of two asymptotically nonexpansive semigroups by using the hybrid method in a Hilbert space. Moreover, we also proved a strong convergence theorem for a common fixed point of two nonexpansive mappings. Our results extend and improve the recent ones announced by Kim and Xu [T.W. Kim, H.W. Xu, Strong convergence of modified Mann iteration for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings and semigroups, Nonlinear Anal. 64 (2006) 1140-1152], Nakajo and Takahashi [K. Nakajo, W. Takahashi, Strong convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings and nonexpansive semigroups, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 279 (2003) 372-379], and many others. (C) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
