Abstract

The convex feasibility problem (CFP) of finding a point in the nonempty intersection i=1NCi is considered, where N1 is an integer and each Ci is assumed to be the fixed point set of a nonexpansive mapping Ti:EE, where E is a reflexive Banach space with a weakly sequentially continuous duality mapping. By using viscosity approximation methods for a finite family of nonexpansive mappings, it is shown that for any given contractive mapping f:CC, where C is a nonempty closed convex subset of E and for any given x0C the iterative scheme xn+1=P[αn+1f(xn)+(1αn+1)Tn+1xn] is strongly convergent to a solution of (CFP), if and only if {αn} and {xn} satisfy certain conditions, where αn(0,1),Tn=Tn(modN) and P is a sunny nonexpansive retraction of E onto C. The results presented in the paper extend and improve some recent results in Xu (2004), O'Hara et al.
