We introduce a new hybrid iterative algorithm for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of hemirelatively nonexpansive mappings and the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem and for finding a common element of the set of zero points of maximal monotone operators and the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem in a Banach space Using this theorem,
we obtain three new results for finding a solution of an equilibrium problem, a fixed point of
a hemirelatively nonexpnasive mapping, and a zero point of maximal monotone operators in a Banach space

1 Introduction
Let E be a Banach space, let C be a closed convex subset of E, and let f be a bifunction from
C × C to R, where R is the set of real numbers The equilibrium problem is to find
x∗∈ C such that fx∗, y ≥ 0 ∀y ∈ C. 1.1
The set of such solutions x∗is denoted by EPf
In 2006, Martinez-Yanes and Xu1 obtained strong convergence theorems for finding
a fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping by a new hybrid method in a Hilbert space In particular, Takahashi and Zembayashi 2 established a strong convergence theorem for finding a common element of the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem and the set
of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping in a uniformly convex and uniformly smooth
Trang 2Banach space Very recently, Su et al.3 proved the following theorem by a monotone hybrid method
Theorem 1.1 see Su et al 3 Let E be a uniformly convex and uniformly smooth real Banach
space, let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of E, and let T : C → C be a closed hemirelatively nonexpansive mapping such that FT / ∅ Assume that α n is a sequence in 0, 1 such that
lim supn → ∞ α n < 1 Define a sequence x n in C by the following:
x0∈ C, chosen arbitrarily,
y n J−1α n Jx n 1 − α n JTx n ,
C n {z ∈ C n−1 ∩ Q n−1 : φz, y n ≤ φz, x n },
C0 {z ∈ C : φz, y0 ≤ φz, x0},
Q n {z ∈ C n−1 ∩ Q n−1: n − z, Jx0− Jx n ≥ 0},

where J is the duality mapping on E Then, x n converges strongly to ΠFT x0, where ΠFT is the generalized projection from C onto FT.
In this paper, motivated by Su et al 3, we prove a strong convergence theorem for finding a common element of the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem and the set of fixed points of a hemirelatively nonexpansive mapping and for finding a common element of the set of zero points of maximal monotone operators and the set of solutions
of an equilibrium problem in a Banach space by using the monotone hybrid method Using this theorem, we obtain three new strong convergence results for finding a solution of an equilibrium problem, a fixed point of a hemirelatively nonexpnasive mapping, and a zero point of maximal monotone operators in a Banach space
2 Preliminaries
Let E be a real Banach space with dual E∗ We denote by J the normalized duality mapping from E to 2 E∗defined by
convex, then J is uniformly continuous on bounded subsets of E In this case, J is single
valued and also one to one
Let E be a smooth, strictly convex, and reflexive Banach space and let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of E Throughout this paper, we denote by φ the function defined by
Trang 3Following Alber4, the generalized projection ΠC : E → C from E onto C is defined by
ΠC x arg min
The generalized projectionΠC from E onto C is well defined and single valued, and it satisfies
x − y2≤ φy, x ≤ x y2 ∀x, y ∈ E. 2.4
If E is a Hilbert space, then φy, x y − x2andΠC is the metric projection of E onto C.
If E is a reflexive strict convex and smooth Banach space, then for x, y ∈ E, φx, y 0
if and only ifx y It is sufficient to show that if φx, y 0, then x y From 2.4,
we have 2 Jy2 From the definition of J, we have
Jx Jy, that is, x y.
Let C be a closed convex subset of E and let T be a mapping from C into itself.
We denote by FT the set of fixed points of T T is called hemirelatively nonexpansive if
φp, Tx ≤ φp, x for all x ∈ C and p ∈ FT.
A point p in C is said to be an asymptotic fixed point of T5 if C contains a sequence xn
which converges weakly to p such that the strong lim n → ∞ Tx n −x n 0 The set of asymptotic
fixed points of T will be denoted by FT A hemirelatively nonexpansive mapping T from C
into itself is called relatively nonexpansive1,5,6 if FT FT
We need the following lemmas for the proof of our main results

Lemma 2.3 see Kamimura and Takahashi 7 Let E be a smooth and uniformly convex Banach
space and let {x n } and {y n } be sequences in E such that either {x n } or {y n } is bounded If
limn → ∞ φx n , y n 0 Then lim n → ∞ x n − y n 0.
Lemma 2.4 see Xu 8 Let E be a uniformly convex Banach space and let r > 0 Then, there exists
a strictly increasing, continuous, and convex function g : 0, 2r → R such that g0 0 and

where B r {z ∈ E : z ≤ r}.

space and let r > 0 Then, there exists a strictly increasing, continuous, and convex function g :

For solving the equilibrium problem, let us assume that a bifunction f satisfies the
following conditions:
A1 fx, x 0 for all x ∈ C;
A2 f is monotone, that is, fx, y fy, x ≤ 0 for all x, y ∈ C;
A3 for all x, y, z ∈ C, lim sup t → 0 ftz 1 − tx, y ≤ fx, y;
A4 for all x ∈ C, fx, · is convex.
Lemma 2.6 see Blum and Oettli 9 Let C be a closed convex subset of a smooth, strictly convex,
and reflexive Banach space E, let f be a bifunction from C × C to R satisfying (A1)–(A4), let r > 0, and let x ∈ E Then, there exists z ∈ C such that
Lemma 2.7 see Takahashi and Zembayashi 10 Let C be a closed convex subset of a uniformly
smooth, strictly convex, and reflexive Banach space E, let f be a bifunction from C × C to R satisfying (A1)–(A4), and let x ∈ E, for r > 0 Define a mapping T r : E → 2C as follows:
T r x
z ∈ C : fz, y 1r
∀x ∈ E. 2.10
Then, the following holds:

Recall that an operator T in a Banach space is called closed, if x n → x, Tx n → y, then
Tx y.
3 Strong convergence theorem
Theorem 3.1 Let E be a uniformly convex and uniformly smooth real Banach space, let C be a
nonempty closed convex subset of E, let f be a bifunction from C × C to R satisfying (A1)–(A4), and let T : C → C be a closed hemirelatively nonexpansive mapping such that FT ∩ EPf / ∅ Define
a sequence {x n } in C by the following:
x0∈ C, chosen arbitrarily,
y n J−1α n Jx n 1 − α n JTz n ,
z n J−1β n Jx n 1 − β n JTx n ,
u n ∈ C such that fu n , y r1
n n , Ju n − Jy n ≥ 0, ∀y ∈ C,
C n {z ∈ C n−1 ∩ Q n−1 : φz, u n ≤ φz, x n },
C0 {z ∈ C : φz, u0 ≤ φz, x0},
Q n {z ∈ C n−1 ∩ Q n−1: n − z, Jx0− Jx n ≥ 0},
Q0 C,
x n1 ΠC n∩Qn x0,
3.1
for every n ∈ N ∪ {0}, where J is the duality mapping on E, {α n }, {β n } are sequences in 0, 1 such
that lim inf n → ∞ 1 − α n β n 1 − β n > 0 and {r n } ⊂ a, ∞ for some a > 0 Then, {x n } converges
strongly toΠFT∩EPf x0, whereΠFT∩EPf is the generalized projection of E onto FT ∩ EPf Proof First, we can easily show that C n and Q n are closed and convex for each n≥ 0
Next, we show that FT ∩ EPf ⊂ C n for all n ≥ 0 Let u ∈ FT ∩ EPf Putting
u n T r n y n for all n ∈ N, fromLemma 2.8, we have Tr n relatively nonexpansive Since T r nare
relatively nonexpansive and T is hemirelatively nonexpansive, we have
φu, z n φu, J−1β n Jx n 1 − β n JTx n

≤ φu, x n ,
φu, u n φu, T r y n ≤ φu, y n ≤ α n φu, x n 1 − α n φu, z n ≤ φu, x n .
3.2
Trang 6Hence, we have
Next, we show that FT ∩ EPf ⊂ Q n for all n ≥ 0 We prove this by induction For n 0,
we have
Suppose that FT ∩ EPf ⊂ Q n, byLemma 2.2, we have
n1 − z, Jx0− Jx n1 ≥ 0 ∀z ∈ C n ∩ Q n 3.5
As FT ∩ EPf ⊂ C n ∩ Q n, by the induction assumptions, the last inequality holds, in
particular, for all z ∈ FT ∩ EPf This, together with the definition of Q n1, implies that
FT ∩ EPf ⊂ Q n1 So,{x n} is well defined
Since x n1 ΠC n∩Qn x0and C n ∩ Q n ⊂ C n−1 ∩ Q n−1 for all n≥ 1, we have
φx n , x0 ≤ φx n1 , x0 ∀n ≥ 0. 3.6
Therefore,{φx n , x0} is nondecreasing In addition, from the definition of Q nandLemma 2.2,
x n ΠQ n x0 Therefore, for each u ∈ FT ∩ EPf, we have
φx n , x0 φΠQ n x0, x0
≤ φu, x0 − φu, x n ≤ φu, x0. 3.7
Therefore, φx n , x0 and {x n} are bounded This, together with 3.6, implies that the limit of
{φx n , x0} exists FromLemma 2.1, we have, for any positive integer m,
φx nm , x n φx nm , Π Q n x0
≤φx nm , x0−φΠQ n x0, x0
φx nm , x0−φx n , x0 ∀n ≥ 0.
3.8 Therefore,
lim
From3.9, we can prove that {xn } is a Cauchy sequence Therefore, there exists a point x ∈ C
such that{x n } converges strongly to x.
Since x n1 ∈ C n, we have
φx n1 , u n ≤ φx n1 , x n . 3.10 Therefore, we have
φx n1 , u n −→ 0. 3.11
Trang 7FromLemma 2.3, we have
lim
n → ∞ x n1 − u n lim
n → ∞ x n1 − x n 0. 3.12
So, we have
lim
Since J is uniformly norm-to-norm continuous on bounded sets, we have
lim
Let r supn∈N {x n , Tx n } Since E is a uniformly smooth Banach space, we know that E∗
is a uniformly convex Banach space Therefore, fromLemma 2.4, there exists a continuous,
strictly increasing, and convex function g with g0 0, such that
αx∗ 1 − αy∗ 2 ≤ αx∗ 2 1 − αy∗ 2− α1 − αgx∗− y∗ 3.15
for x∗, y∗∈ B r , and α ∈ 0, 1 So, we have that for u ∈ FT ∩ EPf,
φu, z n φu, J−1β n Jx n 1 − β n JTx n
u2
n Jx n 1 − β n JTx n β n Jx n 1 − β n JTx n2
≤ φu, x n − β n 1 − β n gJx n − JTx n ,
φu, u n ≤ α n φu, x n 1 − α n φu, z n
≤ φu, x n − 1 − α n β n 1 − β n gJx n − JTx n .
3.16
Therefore, we have
1 − α n β n 1 − β n gJx n − JTx n ≤ φu, x n − φu, u n . 3.17 Since
φu, x n − φu, u n x n2−u n2
n − Ju n ≤x n −u n x n u n 2u Jx n −Ju n ,
3.18
we have
lim
n → ∞ φu, x n − φu, u n 0. 3.19 From lim infn → ∞ 1 − α n β n 1 − β n > 0, we have
lim
n → ∞ gJx n − JTx n 0. 3.20
Trang 8Therefore, from the property of g, we have
lim
Since J−1is uniformly norm-to-norm continuous on bounded sets, we have
lim
Since T is a closed operator and x n → x, then x is a fixed point of T.
On the other hand,
φu n , y n φT r n y n , y n ≤ φu, y n − φu, T r n y n ≤ φu, x n − φu, T r n y n φu, x n − φu, u n .
3.23
So, we have from3.19 that
lim
FromLemma 2.3, we have that
lim
From x n → x and x n − u n → 0, we have y n → x.
From3.25, we have
lim
From r n ≥ a, we have
lim
n → ∞
Ju n − Jy n
r n 0. 3.27
By u n T r n y n, we have
fu n , y r1
n n , Ju n − Jy n ≥ 0 ∀y ∈ C. 3.28 FromA2, we have that
1
r n n , Ju n − Jy n ≥ −fu n , y ≥ fy, u n ∀y ∈ C. 3.29
Trang 9From3.27 and A4, we have
For t with 0 < t ≤ 1 and y ∈ C, let y t ty 1 − tx We have fy t , x ≤ 0 So, from A1, we
have
0 fy t , y t ≤ tfy t , y 1 − tfy t , x ≤ tfy t , y. 3.31
Dividing by t, we have
Letting t → 0, from A3, we have
Therefore, x ∈ EPf Finally, we prove that x Π FT∩EPf x0 FromLemma 2.1, we have
φ
x, Π FT∩EPf x0
φΠFT∩EPf x0, x0
≤ φx, x0. 3.34
Since x n1 ΠC n∩Qn x0and x ∈ FT ∩ EPf ⊂ C n ∩ Q n , for all n≥ 0, we get fromLemma 2.1 that
φ
ΠFT∩EPf x0, x n1
φx n1 , x0 ≤ φΠFT∩EPf x0, x0
. 3.35
By the definition of φx, y, it follows that φx, x0 ≤ φΠ FT∩EPf x0, x0 and φx, x0 ≥
φΠ FT∩EPf x0, x0, whence φx, x0 φΠ FT∩EPf x0, x0 Therefore, it follows from the uniqueness ofΠFT∩EPf x0that x Π FT∩EPf x0 This completes the proof
Corollary 3.2 Let E be a uniformly convex and uniformly smooth real Banach space, let C be a
nonempty closed convex subset of E, and let f be a bifunction from C × C to R satisfying (A1)–(A4) Define a sequence {x n } in C by the following:

for every n ∈ N ∪ {0}, where J is the duality mapping on E, {α n }, {β n } are sequences in 0, 1 such
that lim inf n → ∞ 1 − α n β n 1 − β n > 0 Then, {x n } converges strongly to Π FT x0.
Proof Putting f x, y 0 for all x, y ∈ C and r n 1 for all n inTheorem 3.1, we obtain Corollary 3.3
