Convergence analysis of a multi-step iteration for a finite family of asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive mappings

Abstract

This paper is a continuation of the analysis of classical Kuhfittig iteration involving a finite family of asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive mappings in the general setup of uniformly convex hyperbolic spaces. We establish strong and -convergence results of Kuhfittig iteration, which subsequently help to apply proof mining techniques for the extraction of rates of metastability in the sense of Tao. Additionally, our proposed convergence results extend and improve various results in the current literature.

1 Introduction

Most of the problems in various disciplines of science are nonlinear in nature, whereas fixed point theory proposed in the setting of normed linear spaces or Banach spaces majorly depends on the corresponding linear structures of those spaces. A nonlinear framework for fixed point theory is a metric space embedded with a ‘convex structure.’ It is remarked that the non-positively curved spaces play a significant role in many branches of mathematics. The class of hyperbolic spaces - nonlinear in nature - is prominent among non-positively curved spaces and provides rich geometrical structures for different results with applications in topology, graph theory, multivalued analysis and metric fixed point theory. The study of hyperbolic spaces has been largely motivated and dominated by questions about hyperbolic groups, one of the main objects of study in geometric group theory.

Throughout this paper, we work in the setting of hyperbolic spaces introduced by Kohlenbach [1] which is more restrictive than the hyperbolic type introduced in [2] and more general than the concept of hyperbolic space in [3].

A hyperbolic space is a metric space (X,d) together with a mapping W: X 2 ×[0,1]X satisfying

  1. (1)

    d(u,W(x,y,α))αd(u,x)+(1α)d(u,y),

  2. (2)

    d(W(x,y,α),W(x,y,β))=|αβ|d(x,y),

  3. (3)

    W(x,y,α)=W(y,x,(1α)),

  4. (4)

    d(W(x,z,α),W(y,w,α))(1α)d(x,y)+αd(z,w)

for all x,y,z,wX and α,β[0,1]. A nonempty subset K of a hyperbolic space X is convex if W(x,y,α)K for all x,yK and α[0,1]. The class of hyperbolic spaces contains normed spaces and convex subsets thereof, the Hilbert ball equipped with the hyperbolic metric [4], -trees, Hadamard manifolds as well as CAT(0) spaces in the sense of Gromov (see [5] for a detailed treatment).

The following example accentuates the importance of hyperbolic spaces.

Let B H be an open unit ball in a complex Hilbert spaces (H,) w.r.t. the metric

k B H (x,y):=argtanh ( 1 σ ( x , y ) ) 1 2 ,

where

σ(x,y)= ( 1 x 2 ) ( 1 x 2 ) | 1 x , y | 2 for all x,y B H .

Then ( B H , k B H ,W) is a hyperbolic space where W(x,y,α) defines a unique point z in a unique geodesic segment [x,y] for all x,y B H . The above example is of importance for metric fixed point theory of holomorphic mappings which are k B H -nonexpansive. For a detailed discussion of the topic, we refer to [6].

A hyperbolic space is uniformly convex [7] if for any r>0 and ϵ(0,2], there exists a δ(0,1] such that for all u,x,yX, we have

d ( W ( x , y , 1 2 ) , u ) (1δ)r

provided d(x,u)r, d(y,u)r and d(x,y)ϵr.

A map η:(0,)×(0,2](0,1], which provides such a δ=η(r,ϵ) for given r>0 and ϵ(0,2], is known as a modulus of uniform convexity of X. We call η monotone if it decreases with r (for a fixed ϵ), i.e., ϵ>0, r 2 r 1 >0 (η( r 2 ,ϵ)η( r 1 ,ϵ)).

Let K be a nonempty subset of a metric space (X,d), and let T be a self-mapping on K. Denote by F(T)={xK:T(x)=x} the set of fixed points of T. A self-mapping T on K is said to be:

  1. (i)

    nonexpansive if d(Tx,Ty)d(x,y) for x,yK;

  2. (ii)

    quasi-nonexpansive if d(Tx,p)d(x,p) for xK and for pF(T);

  3. (iii)

    asymptotically nonexpansive [8] if there exists a sequence k n [0,) and lim n k n =0 and d( T n x, T n y)(1+ k n )d(x,y) for x,yK, n1;

  4. (iv)

    asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive if there exists a sequence k n [0,) and lim n k n =0 and d( T n x,p)(1+ k n )d(x,p) for xK, pF(T), n1;

  5. (v)

    uniformly L-Lipschitzian if there exists a constant L>0 such that d( T n x, T n y)Ld(x,y) for x,yK and n1.

It follows from the above definitions that a nonexpansive mapping is quasi-nonexpansive and that an asymptotically nonexpansive mapping is asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive. Moreover, an asymptotically nonexpansive mapping is uniformly L-Lipschitzian. However, the converse of these statements is not true, in general.

The fixed point property (fpp) of various nonlinear mappings has relevant applications in many branches of nonlinear analysis and topology. On the other hand, there are certain situations where it is hard to derive conditions for the (fpp) of certain nonlinear mappings. In such situations, the approximate fixed point property (afpp) is more desirable. Moreover, in a nonlinear domain, the (afpp) of various generalization nonexpansive mappings is still being developed.

The problem of finding a common fixed point of a finite family of nonlinear mappings acting on a nonempty convex domain often arises in applied mathematics, for instance, in convex minimization problems and systems of simultaneous equations. A fundamental result in the construction of common fixed points of a finite family of nonexpansive mappings is essentially due to Kuhfittig [9]. The following iteration is a translation of classical Kuhfittig iteration for a finite family of nonexpansive mappings in hyperbolic spaces.

Let U 0 =I, define

U 1 x = W ( x , T 1 U 0 x , λ ) , U 2 x = W ( x , T 2 U 1 x , λ ) , U k x = W ( x , T k U k 1 x , λ ) ,

where δλ1δ for some δ(0,1).

Then the corresponding Kuhfittig iteration in a compact form is defined as follows:

x 0 K, x n + 1 =W( x n , T k U k 1 x n ,λ),n0.
(1.1)

The classical Kuhfittig iteration converges strongly under the compactness condition of K, whereas the weak convergence is established through Opial’s condition. Kuhfittig iteration is comparatively less developed for various nonlinear mappings in a more general setup of spaces with non-positive sectional curvature such as hyperbolic spaces. To the best of our knowledge, Kuhfittig iteration has never been used as a tool for the approximation of common fixed points of a finite family of asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive mappings. Moreover, Rhoades [10] mentioned that one can replace λ in the Kuhfittig iteration with a sequence { λ n }. Here a natural question arises:

Question Is Kuhfittig iteration valid for the class of asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive mappings with a general sequence of control parameters δ λ n 1δ for some δ(0,1) in the general setup of hyperbolic spaces?

The purpose of this paper is to provide an affirmative answer to the above question. Our convergence results not only can be viewed as an analogue of various existing results but also improve and generalize various results in the current literature; see, for example, [1125] and the references cited therein.

2 Preliminaries

We start this section with the concept of -convergence which is essentially due to Lim [26] in the general setting of metric spaces. In 2008, Kirk and Panyanak [27] investigated -convergence in CAT(0) spaces and showed that -convergence coincides with the usual weak convergence in Banach spaces. Moreover, both concepts share many useful properties in uniformly convex spaces.

Let { x n } be a bounded sequence in a hyperbolic space X. For xX, define a continuous functional r(,{ x n }):X[0,) by

r ( x , { x n } ) = lim sup n d(x, x n ).

The asymptotic radius r({ x n }) of { x n } is given by

r ( { x n } ) =inf { r ( x , { x n } ) : x X } .

The asymptotic center of a bounded sequence { x n } with respect to a subset K of X is defined as follows:

A K ( { x n } ) = { x X : r ( x , { x n } ) r ( y , { x n } )  for any  y K } .

This is the set of minimizers of the functional r(,{ x n }). If the asymptotic center is taken with respect to X, then it is simply denoted by A({ x n }). It is known that uniformly convex Banach spaces and even CAT(0) spaces enjoy the property that ‘bounded sequences have unique asymptotic centers with respect to closed convex subsets.’ The following lemma is due to Leustean [28] and ensures that this property also holds in a complete uniformly convex hyperbolic space.

Lemma 2.1 [28]

Let (X,d,W) be a complete uniformly convex hyperbolic space with monotone modulus of uniform convexity. Then every bounded sequence { x n } in X has a unique asymptotic center with respect to any nonempty closed convex subset K of X.

Recall that a sequence { x n } in X is said to -converge to xX if x is the unique asymptotic center of { u n } for every subsequence { u n } of { x n }. In this case, we write lim n x n =x and call x the -limit of { x n }. A sequence { x n } is said to be quasi-Fejér monotone w.r.t. a set K if d( x n + 1 ,x)d( x n ,x)+ ϵ n for all xK and ϵ n 0 for all n0. This concept generalizes the classical concept of Fejér monotone sequence in a sense that it satisfies the standard Fejér monotonicity property within an additional error term ϵ n . A mapping T:KK is semi-compact if every bounded sequence { x n }K satisfying d( x n ,T x n )0 has a convergent subsequence.

In the sequel, we need the following useful results.

Lemma 2.2 [29]

Let (X,d,W) be a uniformly convex hyperbolic space with monotone modulus of uniform convexity η. Let xX and { α n } be a sequence in [a,b] for some a,b(0,1). If { x n } and { y n } are sequences in X such that lim sup n d( x n ,x)c, lim sup n d( y n ,x)c and lim n d(W( x n , y n , α n ),x)=c for some c0, then lim n d( x n , y n )=0.

Lemma 2.3 [29]

Let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of a uniformly convex hyperbolic space, and let { x n } be a bounded sequence in K such that A({ x n })={y} and r({ x n })=ρ. If { y m } is another sequence in K such that lim m r( y m ,{ x n })=ρ, then lim m y m =y.

Lemma 2.4 [11]

Let { a n }and { b n } be two sequences of non-negative real numbers such that n = 1 b n <. If a n + 1 (1+ b n ) a n , n1, then lim n a n exists.

3 Main results

Throughout this section, we assume that the mappings { U n ( i ) } i = 1 k are nonexpansive and satisfy F:=( i = 1 k F( T i ))( i = 1 k F( U n ( i ) )). We are now in a position to prove our main convergence results.

Theorem 3.1 Let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of a complete uniformly convex hyperbolic space X with monotone modulus of uniform convexity η, and let { T i } i = 1 k be a finite family of uniformly L-Lipschitzian asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive self-mappings of K with a sequence { t n }[1,) such that lim n t n =1 and n = 1 ( t n 1)<. Assume that F, then the sequence { x n } defined as

x 0 K, x n + 1 =W ( x n , T k n U n ( k 1 ) x n , λ n ) ,n0,
(3.1)

-converges to a common fixed point of { T i } i = 1 k .

Proof Let pF, then observe that

d ( x n + 1 , p ) = d ( W ( x n , T k n U n ( k 1 ) x n , λ n ) , p ) ( 1 λ n ) d ( x n , p ) + λ n d ( T k n U n ( k 1 ) x n , p ) ( 1 λ n ) d ( x n , p ) + λ n t n d ( U n ( k 1 ) x n , p ) = ( 1 λ n ) d ( x n , p ) + λ n t n d ( W ( x n , T k 1 n U n ( k 2 ) x n , λ n ) , p ) ( 1 λ n 2 ) t n d ( x n , p ) + λ n 2 t n d ( T k 1 n U n ( k 2 ) x n , p ) ( 1 λ n k 1 ) t n k 2 d ( x n , p ) + λ n k 1 t n k 2 d ( T 1 n x n , p ) ( 1 λ n k 1 ) t n k 2 d ( x n , p ) + λ n k 1 t n k 1 d ( x n , p ) = t n k 1 d ( x n , p ) .
(3.2)

Since n = 1 ( t n k 1 1)<, therefore Lemma 2.4 implies that { d ( x n , p ) } n = 1 is convergent. Consequently, this fact asserts that the sequence { d ( x n , p ) } n = 1 is bounded. Let MN be a bound of the sequence { d ( x n , p ) } n = 1 such that d( x n ,p)M for all n1. Let t n :=1+ r n , then observe the following variant of estimate (3.2):

d ( x n + 1 , p ) ( 1 + r n ) k 1 d ( x n , p ) d ( x n , p ) + θ k 1 r n M ,
(3.3)

where θ k 1 = ( k 1 1 ) + ( k 1 2 ) + ( k 1 3 ) ++ ( k 1 k 1 ) and θ k 1 r n M is finite.

Hence, estimate (3.3) implies that { x n } n = 1 is quasi-Fejér monotone w.r.t. F. Therefore, { x n } n = 1 is bounded, and hence Lemma 2.1 implies that { x n } has a unique asymptotic center A K ({ x n })={x}.

For the -convergence of { x n }, we first show that the sequence { x n } is asymptotic regular w.r.t. the k th-mapping S k , that is, lim n d( x n , S k x n )=0. For this, we reason as follows.

Since { d ( x n , p ) } n = 1 is convergent, therefore, without loss of any generality, we can assume that

lim n d( x n + 1 ,p)=d ( W ( x n , S k n x n , λ n ) , p ) =c>0,
(3.4)

where S k n := T k n U n ( k 1 ) . The case c=0 is trivial. Moreover, observe that

lim sup n d( x n ,p)cand lim sup n d ( S k n x n , p ) c.
(3.5)

It follows from estimates (3.4)-(3.5) and Lemma 2.2 that

lim n d ( x n , S k n x n ) =0.
(3.6)

Note that d( x n , x n + 1 )= λ n d( x n , S k n x n ), therefore letting n and using (3.6), we have

lim n d( x n , x n + 1 )=0.
(3.7)

Now observe that

d ( x n , S k x n ) d ( x n , x n + 1 ) + d ( x n + 1 , S k n + 1 x n + 1 ) + d ( S k n + 1 x n + 1 , S k n + 1 x n ) + d ( S k n + 1 x n , S k x n ) ( 1 + L ) d ( x n , x n + 1 ) + d ( x n + 1 , S k n + 1 x n + 1 ) + d ( S k n x n , x n ) .

Taking the lim sup on both sides of the above estimate and using (3.6)-(3.7), we get the required asymptotic regularity of the k th-mapping S k , that is,

lim n d( x n , S k x n )=0.

Let { u n } be any subsequence of { x n } with A K ({ u n })={u}, then

lim n d( u n , S k u n )=0.
(3.8)

Next, we show that uF( S k ). For this, we define a sequence { z n } in K by z i = S k i u.

So, we calculate

d ( z i , u n ) d ( S k i u , S k i u n ) + d ( S k i u n , S k i 1 u n ) + + d ( S k u n , u n ) t n d ( u , u n ) + i = 0 r 1 d ( S k i u n , S k i + 1 u n ) .

Since S k is uniformly L-Lipschitzian with the Lipschitz constant L K , therefore, the above estimate yields

d( z i , u n ) t n d(u, u n )+r L K d( S k u n , u n ).

Taking limsup on both sides of the above estimate and using (3.8), we have

r ( z i , { u n } ) = lim sup n d( z i , u n ) lim sup n d(u, u n )=r ( u , { u n } ) .

This implies that |r( z i ,{ u n })r(u,{ u n })|0 as i. It follows from Lemma 2.3 that lim i S k i u=u. As S k is uniformly continuous, so we get that S k (u)= S k ( lim i S k i v)= lim i S k i + 1 u=u. That is, uF( S k ) and hence u is the common fixed point of T k and U k 1 . Reasoning as above - by utilizing the uniqueness of asymptotic centers - we get that x=u. This infers that u is the unique asymptotic center of { x n } for every subsequence { u n } of { x n }.

To proceed further, we show that

lim n d ( x n , S k 1 n x n ) =0,

where S k 1 n = T k 1 n U n ( k 2 ) .

For this, we reason as follows.

Observe that estimate (3.2) implies that

d( x n + 1 ,p)(1δ)d( x n ,p)+δ t n d ( W ( x n , S k 1 n x n , λ n ) , p ) .

Applying liminf on both sides of the above estimate and utilizing the fact that δ λ n 1δ and lim n t n =1, we get that

c(1δ)c+δ lim inf n d ( W ( x n , S k 1 n x n , λ n ) , p ) .

On simplification, we have

c lim inf n d ( W ( x n , S k 1 n x n , λ n ) , p ) .
(3.9)

On the other hand,

d ( W ( x n , S k 1 n x n , λ n ) , p ) ( 1 λ n ) d ( x n , p ) + λ n d ( S k 1 n x n , p ) ( 1 λ n ) d ( x n , p ) + λ n t n d ( x n , p ) ( 1 δ ) d ( x n , p ) + δ t n d ( x n , p ) .

Taking limsup on both sides of the above estimate, we have

lim sup n d ( W ( x n , S k 1 n x n , λ n ) , p ) c.
(3.10)

Estimates (3.9)-(3.10) collectively imply that

lim n d ( W ( x n , S k 1 n x n , λ n ) , p ) =c.
(3.11)

Further, observe that

lim sup n d ( S k 1 n x n , p ) cand lim sup n d( x n ,p)c.
(3.12)

Appealing to Lemma 2.2 and utilizing estimates (3.11)-(3.12), we have

lim n d ( x n , S k 1 n x n ) =0.

Reasoning as above, we can show that:

  1. (i)

    lim n d( x n , S k 1 x n )=0;

  2. (ii)

    u is the common fixed point of T k 1 and U k 2 .

Continuing in a similar fashion, we can show that u is the common fixed point of S k 2 := T k 2 U k 3 , S k 3 := T k 3 U k 4 , …, S 1 := T 1 U 0 . Hence uF:= i = 1 k F( T i ). This completes the proof. □

The strong convergence of iteration (3.1) can easily be established under compactness condition of K or T(K). Next, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the strong convergence of iteration (3.1).

Theorem 3.2 Let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of a complete uniformly convex hyperbolic space X with monotone modulus of uniform convexity η, and let { T i } i = 1 k be a finite family of uniformly Lipschitzian asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive self-mappings of K with a sequence { t n }[1,) such that lim n t n =1 and n = 1 ( t n 1)<. Assume that F, then the sequence { x n } defined in (3.1) converges strongly to a common fixed point of { T i } i = 1 k if and only if lim inf n d( x n ,F)=0.

Proof The necessity of the conditions is obvious. Thus, we only prove the sufficiency. It follows from estimate (3.2) that { d ( x n , p ) } n = 1 converges. Moreover, lim inf n d( x n ,F)=0 implies that lim n d( x n ,F)=0. This completes the proof. □

Since the class of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings is properly contained in the class of asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive mappings, therefore, we now list the following useful corollaries of Theorems (3.1)-(3.2).

Corollary 3.3 Let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of a complete uniformly convex hyperbolic space X with monotone modulus of uniform convexity η, and let { T i } i = 1 k be a finite family of uniformly Lipschitzian asymptotically nonexpansive self-mappings of K with a sequence { t n }[1,) such that lim n t n =1 and n = 1 ( t n 1)<. Assume that F, then the sequence { x n } defined in (3.1) -converges to a common fixed point of { T i } i = 1 k .

Corollary 3.4 Let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of a complete uniformly convex hyperbolic space X with monotone modulus of uniform convexity η, and let { T i } i = 1 k be a finite family of uniformly Lipschitzian asymptotically nonexpansive self-mappings of K with a sequence { t n }[1,) such that lim n t n =1 and n = 1 ( t n 1)<. Assume that F, then the sequence { x n } defined in (3.1) converges strongly to a common fixed point of { T i } i = 1 k if and only if lim inf n d( x n ,F)=0.

Concluding remarks (i) Following the line of action of the results proved so far, we can prove these results with suitable changes for the following classes of nonlinear mappings:

  1. (a)

    generalized asymptotically-quasi-nonexpansive mappings (i.e. T n xp u n xp+ δ n , where lim n u n =1 and lim n δ n =0);

  2. (b)

    asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in the intermediate sense [30]{i.e., lim sup n sup x , y C ( T n x T n yxy)0}.

Moreover, these proofs even hold for asymptotically weakly-quasi-nonexpansive mappings [31].

  1. (ii)

    It is worth mentioning that Kuhfittig iteration for a finite family of nonexpansive mappings is analyzed in the general setup of uniformly convex hyperbolic spaces resulting in explicit and uniform rates of asymptotical regularity [32]; whereas for iteration (3.1), there does not seem to exist a computable rate of asymptotic regularity, let alone a rate of metastability (in the sense of Tao [33]) in cases where strong convergence holds.

Future work We intend to extract explicit and effective rates of metastability of Kuhfittig iteration involving a finite family of asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive mappings in the general setup of uniformly convex hyperbolic spaces.
