    In the last two decades, the theory of variational analysisincluding variational inequalities (VI) emerged as a rapidlygrowing area of research because of its applications innonlinear analysis, optimization, economics, game theory,and so forth; see, for example, [1] and the references therein.In the recent past, many authors devoted their attentionto study the VI defined on the set of fixed points of amapping, called hierarchical variational inequalities. Veryrecently, several iterative methods have been investigatedto solve VI, hierarchical variational inequalities, and triplehierarchical variational inequalities. Since the origin of theVI, it has been used as a tool to study optimization problems.Hierarchical variational inequalities are used to study thebilevel mathematical programming problems. A triple levelmathematical programming problem can be studied by usingtriple hierarchical variational inequalities.

    The Ekeland’s variational principle provides the existenceof an approximate minimizer of a bounded below and lowersemicontinuous function. It is one of the most importantresults from nonlinear analysis and it has applications indifferent areas of mathematics and mathematical sciences,namely, fixed point theory, optimization, optimal controltheory, game theory, nonlinear equations, dynamical systems,and so forth, for example, [2–9] and the references therein.During the last decade, it has been used to study the existenceof solutions of equilibrium problems in the setting of metricspaces, for example, [2, 3] and the references therein.

    Banach’s contraction principle is remarkable in its sim-plicity, yet it is perhaps the most widely applied fixed point

    theory in all of analysis. This is because the contractivecondition on the mapping is simple and easy to verify, andbecause it requires only completeness of the metric space.Although, the basic idea was known to others earlier, theprinciple first appeared in explicit form inBanach’s 1922 thesiswhere it was used to establish the existence of a solution to anintegral equation.

    Caristi’s fixed point theorem [10, 11] has found manyapplications in nonlinear analysis. It is shown, for example,that this theorem yields essentially all the known inwardnessresults of geometric fixed point theory in Banach spaces.Recall that inwardness conditions are the ones which assertthat, in some sense, points from the domain are mappedtoward the domain. This theorem is amazing equivalent toEkeland’s variational principle.

    We study thewidelymore generalized hybridmappings which have been proposed to unify several well-known nonlinearmappingsincluding the nonexpansive mappings, nonspreading mappings, hybrid mappings, and generalized hybrid mappings. Without theconvexity assumption, we will establish the existence theorem and mean convergence theorem for attractive point of the widelymore generalized hybridmappings in a Hilbert space. Moreover, we prove a weak convergence theorem ofMann’s type and a strongconvergence theorem of Shimizu and Takahashi’s type for such a wide class of nonlinear mappings in a Hilbert space. Our resultscan be viewed as a generalization of Kocourek, Takahashi and Yao, and Hojo and Takahashi where they studied the generalizedhybrid mappings.

    1. Introduction

    Let𝐻 be a real Hilbert space, and let 𝐶 be a nonempty subsetof𝐻. For amapping𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐻, we denote by𝐹(𝑇) and𝐴(𝑇)the sets of fixed points and attractive points of 𝑇, respectively,that is,

    (i) 𝐹(𝑇) = {𝑧 ∈ 𝐶 : 𝑇𝑧 = 𝑧};(ii) 𝐴(𝑇) = {𝑧 ∈ 𝐻 : ‖𝑇𝑥 − 𝑧‖ ≤ ‖𝑥 − 𝑧‖, ∀𝑥 ∈ 𝐶}.

    Amapping𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐻 is called nonexpansive [1] if ‖𝑇𝑥−𝑇𝑦‖ ≤ ‖𝑥 − 𝑦‖ for all 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐶. A mapping 𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐻 iscalled nonspreading [2], hybrid [3] if

    2𝑇𝑥 − 𝑇𝑦

    2

    ≤𝑇𝑥 − 𝑦

    2

    +𝑇𝑦 − 𝑥

    2

    ,

    3𝑇𝑥 − 𝑇𝑦

    2

    ≤𝑥 − 𝑦

    2

    +𝑇𝑥 − 𝑦

    2

    +𝑇𝑦 − 𝑥

    2

    (1)

    for all 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐶, respectively; see also [4, 5].These three termsare independent, and they are deduced from the notion offirmly nonexpansive mapping in a Hilbert space; see [3]. Amapping 𝐹 : 𝐶 → 𝐻 is said to be firmly nonexpansive if

    𝐹𝑥 − 𝐹𝑦

    2

    ≤ ⟨𝑥 − 𝑦, 𝐹𝑥 − 𝐹𝑦⟩ (2)

    for all 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐶; see, for instance, Goebel and Kirk [6]. Theclass of nonspreading mappings was first defined in a strictlyconvex, smooth, and reflexive Banach space.The resolvents ofa maximal monotone operator are nonspreading mappings;see [2] for more details. These three classes of nonlinearmappings are important in the study of the geometry ofinfinite dimensional spaces. Indeed, by using the fact that theresolvents of amaximalmonotone operator are nonspreadingmappings, Takahashi et al. [7] solved an open problem whichis related to Ray’s theorem [8] in the geometry of Banachspaces. Motivated by these mappings, Kocourek et al. [9]introduced a broad class of nonlinear mappings in a Hilbertspace which covers nonexpansive mappings, nonspreadingmappings, and hybrid mappings. A mapping 𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐻is said to be generalized hybrid if there exist 𝛼, 𝛽 ∈ R suchthat

    𝛼𝑇𝑥 − 𝑇𝑦

    2

    + (1 − 𝛼)𝑥 − 𝑇𝑦

    2

    ≤ 𝛽𝑇𝑥 − 𝑦

    2

    + (1 − 𝛽)𝑥 − 𝑦

    2

    (3)

    for all 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐶, where R is the set of real numbers. Wecall such a mapping an (𝛼, 𝛽)-generalized hybrid mapping.

  • 2 Abstract and Applied Analysis

    An (𝛼, 𝛽)-generalized hybrid mapping is nonexpansive for𝛼 = 1 and 𝛽 = 0, nonspreading for 𝛼 = 2 and 𝛽 = 1, andhybrid for 𝛼 = 3/2 and 𝛽 = 1/2. They proved fixed pointtheorems for suchmappings; see also Kohsaka and Takahashi[10] and Iemoto and Takahashi [4]. Moreover, they provedthe following nonlinear ergodic theorem which generalizesBaillon’s theorem [11].

    Theorem 1 (see [9]). Let 𝐻 be a real Hilbert space, let 𝐶 bea nonempty closed convex subset of 𝐻, let 𝑇 be a generalizedhybrid mapping from 𝐶 into itself with 𝐹(𝑇) ̸= 0, and let 𝑃 bethe metric projection of𝐻 onto 𝐹(𝑇). Then for any 𝑥 ∈ 𝐶,

    𝑆𝑛𝑥 =

    1

    𝑛

    𝑛−1

    𝑘=0

    𝑇𝑘𝑥 (4)

    converges weakly to 𝑝 ∈ 𝐹(𝑇), where 𝑝 = lim𝑛→∞

    𝑃𝑇𝑛𝑥.

    We see that the set 𝐶 needs to be closed and convexin Theorem 1. As a contrast, Takahashi and Takeuchi [12]proved the following theoremwhich establishes the existenceof attractive point and mean convergence property withoutthe convexity assumption in a Hilbert space; see also Lin andTakahashi [13] and Takahashi et al. [14].

    Theorem 2. Let 𝐻 be a real Hilbert space, and let 𝐶 be anonempty subset of𝐻. Let 𝑇 be a generalized hybrid mappingfrom 𝐶 into itself. Let {V

    𝑛} and {𝑏

    𝑛} be sequences defined by

    V1∈ 𝐶, V

    𝑛+1= 𝑇V𝑛, 𝑏𝑛=1

    𝑛

    𝑛

    𝑘=1

    V𝑘 (5)

    for all 𝑛 ∈ N. If {V𝑛} is bounded, then the followings hold:

    (1) 𝐴(𝑇) is nonempty, closed, and convex;(2) {𝑏𝑛} converges weakly to 𝑢

    0∈ 𝐴(𝑇), where 𝑢

    0=

    lim𝑛→∞

    𝑃𝐴(𝑇)

    V𝑛and 𝑃

    𝐴(𝑇)is the metric projection of

    𝐻 onto 𝐴(𝑇).

    Very recently Kawasaki and Takahashi [15] introduced aclass of nonlinear mappings in a Hilbert space which coverscontractive mappings [16] and generalized hybrid mappings.A mapping 𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐻 is called widely more generalizedhybrid if there exist 𝛼, 𝛽, 𝛾, 𝛿, 𝜀, 𝜁, 𝜂 ∈ R such that

    𝛼𝑇𝑥 − 𝑇𝑦

    2

    + 𝛽𝑥 − 𝑇𝑦

    2

    + 𝛾𝑇𝑥 − 𝑦

    + 𝛿𝑥 − 𝑦

    𝑦−𝑇𝑦

    2

    +𝜂(𝑥−𝑇𝑥)−(𝑦−𝑇𝑦)

    2

    ≤0

    (6)

    for any 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐶; see also Kawasaki and Takahashi [17].A mapping 𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐻 is called quasi-nonexpansive

    if 𝐹(𝑇) ̸= 0 and ‖𝑇𝑥 − 𝑦‖ ≤ ‖𝑥 − 𝑦‖ for all 𝑥 ∈ 𝐶 and𝑦 ∈ 𝐹(𝑇). It is well known that if 𝐶 is closed and convexand 𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐻 is quasi-nonexpansive, then 𝐹(𝑇) is closedand convex; see Itoh and Takahashi [18]. For a simpler proofof such a result in a Hilbert space, see, for example, [19].A generalized hybrid mapping with a fixed point is quasi-nonexpansive. However, a widely more generalized hybridmapping is not quasi-nonexpansive generally even if it has

    a fixed point. In [15], they proved fixed point theorems andnonlinear ergodic theorems of Baillon’s type for such newmappings in a Hilbert space.

    In this paper, motivated by these results, we establishthe attractive point theorem and mean convergence theoremwithout the commonly required convexity for the widelymore generalized hybrid mappings in a Hilbert space. More-over, we prove a weak convergence theorem of Mann’s type[20] and a strong convergence theorem of Shimizu andTakahashi’s type [21] for such a class of nonlinear mappingsin a Hilbert space which generalize Kocourek et al. [9] andHojo and Takahashi [22] for generalized hybrid mappings,respectively.

    2. Preliminaries

    Throughout this paper, we denote by N the set of positiveintegers. Let𝐻 be a real Hilbert space with inner product ⟨⋅, ⋅⟩and norm ‖ ⋅ ‖. We denote the strong convergence and theweak convergence of {𝑥

    𝑛} to 𝑥 ∈ 𝐻 by 𝑥

    𝑛→ 𝑥 and 𝑥

    𝑛⇀ 𝑥,

    respectively. Let 𝐴 be a nonempty subset of𝐻. We denote byco𝐴 the closure of the convex hull of 𝐴. In a Hilbert space, itis known [1] that for any 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐻 and 𝛼 ∈ R,

    𝑦

    2

    − ‖𝑥‖2≤ 2 ⟨𝑦 − 𝑥, 𝑦⟩ , (7)

    𝛼𝑥 + (1 − 𝛼) 𝑦

    2

    = 𝛼‖𝑥‖2+ (1 − 𝛼)

    𝑦

    2

    − 𝛼 (1 − 𝛼)𝑥 − 𝑦

    2

    .

    (8)

    Furthermore, we have that

    2 ⟨𝑥 − 𝑦, 𝑧 − 𝑤⟩ = ‖𝑥 − 𝑤‖2+𝑦 − 𝑧

    2

    − ‖𝑥 − 𝑧‖2−𝑦 − 𝑤

    2

    (9)

    for any 𝑥, 𝑦, 𝑧, 𝑤 ∈ 𝐻.Let 𝐷 be a nonempty closed convex subset of 𝐻 and

    𝑥 ∈ 𝐻. Then we know that there exists a unique nearest point𝑧 ∈ 𝐷 such that ‖𝑥 − 𝑧‖ = inf

    𝑦∈𝐷‖𝑥 − 𝑦‖. We denote such

    a correspondence by 𝑧 = 𝑃𝐷𝑥. The mapping 𝑃

    𝐷is called

    the metric projection of 𝐻 onto 𝐷. It is known that 𝑃𝐷is

    nonexpansive and

    ⟨𝑥 − 𝑃𝐷𝑥, 𝑃𝐷𝑥 − 𝑢⟩ ≥ 0 (10)

    for any 𝑥 ∈ 𝐻 and 𝑢 ∈ 𝐷; see [1] for more details. For provinga nonlinear ergodic theorem in this paper, we also need thefollowing lemma proved by Takahashi and Toyoda [23].

    Lemma 3. Let 𝐷 be a nonempty closed convex subset of 𝐻.Let 𝑃 be the metric projection from 𝐻 onto 𝐷. Let {𝑢

    𝑛} be a

    sequence in 𝐻. If ‖𝑢𝑛+1

    − 𝑢‖ ≤ ‖𝑢𝑛− 𝑢‖ for any 𝑢 ∈ 𝐷 and

    𝑛 ∈ N, then {𝑃𝑢𝑛} converges strongly to some 𝑢

    0∈ 𝐷.

    To prove a strong convergence theorem in this paper, weneed the following lemma.

  • Abstract and Applied Analysis 3

    Lemma 4 (Aoyama et al. [24]). Let {𝑠𝑛} be a sequence of

    nonnegative real numbers, let {𝛼𝑛} be a sequence of [0, 1] with

    ∑∞

    𝑛=1𝛼𝑛

    = ∞, let {𝛽𝑛} be a sequence of nonnegative real

    numbers with ∑∞𝑛=1

    𝛽𝑛< ∞, and let {𝛾

    𝑛} be a sequence of real

    numbers with lim sup𝑛→∞

    𝛾𝑛≤ 0. Suppose that

    𝑠𝑛+1

    ≤ (1 − 𝛼𝑛) 𝑠𝑛+ 𝛼𝑛𝛾𝑛+ 𝛽𝑛 (11)

    for all 𝑛 = 1, 2, . . .. Then lim𝑛→∞

    𝑠𝑛= 0.

    Let 𝑙∞ be the Banach space of bounded sequences withsupremum norm. Let 𝜇 be an element of (𝑙∞)∗ (the dualspace of 𝑙∞). Then we denote by 𝜇(𝑓) the value of 𝜇 at 𝑓 =(𝑥1, 𝑥2, 𝑥3, . . .) ∈ 𝑙

    ∞. Sometimes, we denote by 𝜇𝑛(𝑥𝑛) the

    value 𝜇(𝑓). A linear functional 𝜇 on 𝑙∞ is called a mean if𝜇(𝑒) = ‖𝜇‖ = 1, where 𝑒 = (1, 1, 1, . . .). A mean 𝜇 is called aBanach limit on 𝑙∞ if 𝜇

    𝑛(𝑥𝑛+1

    ) = 𝜇𝑛(𝑥𝑛). We know that there

    exists a Banach limit on 𝑙∞. If 𝜇 is a Banach limit on 𝑙∞, thenfor 𝑓 = (𝑥

    ∞,

    lim inf𝑛→∞

    𝑥𝑛≤ 𝜇𝑛(𝑥𝑛) ≤ lim sup𝑛→∞

    𝑥𝑛. (12)

    In particular, if 𝑓 = (𝑥1, 𝑥2, 𝑥3, . . .) ∈ 𝑙

    ∞ and 𝑥𝑛

    𝑎 ∈ R, then we have 𝜇(𝑓) = 𝜇𝑛(𝑥𝑛) = 𝑎. See [25]

    for the proof of existence of a Banach limit and its otherelementary properties. Using means and the Riesz theorem,we can obtain the following result; see [25, 26].

    Lemma 5. Let𝐻 be a real Hilbert space, let {𝑥𝑛} be a bounded

    sequence in𝐻, and let 𝜇 be a mean on 𝑙∞. Then there exists aunique point 𝑧

    0∈ co{𝑥

    𝑛| 𝑛 ∈ N} such that

    𝜇𝑛(⟨𝑥𝑛, 𝑦⟩) = ⟨𝑧

    0, 𝑦⟩ (13)

    for any 𝑦 ∈ 𝐻.

    The following result obtained by Takahashi and Takeuchi[12] is important in this paper.

    Lemma6. Let𝐻 be aHilbert space, let𝐶 be a nonempty subsetof 𝐻, and let 𝑇 be a mapping from 𝐶 into 𝐻. Then 𝐴(𝑇) is aclosed and convex subset of𝐻.

    We also know the following result from [14].

    Lemma7. Let𝐻 be aHilbert space, let𝐶 be a nonempty subsetof𝐻, and let 𝑇 be a quasi-nonexpansive mapping from 𝐶 into𝐻. Then 𝐴(𝑇) ∩ 𝐶 = 𝐹(𝑇).

    3. Attractive Point Theorems

    Let 𝐻 be a real Hilbert space, and let 𝐶 be a nonemptysubset of 𝐻. Recall that a mapping 𝑇 from 𝐶 into 𝐻 issaid to be widely more generalized hybrid [15] if there exist𝛼, 𝛽, 𝛾, 𝛿, 𝜀, 𝜁, 𝜂 ∈ R such that

    2

    + 𝜂(𝑥 − 𝑇𝑥) − (𝑦 − 𝑇𝑦)

    2

    ≤ 0

    (14)

    for any 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐶. Such amapping𝑇 is called (𝛼, 𝛽, 𝛾, 𝛿, 𝜀, 𝜁, 𝜂)-widely more generalized hybrid. An (𝛼, 𝛽, 𝛾, 𝛿, 𝜀, 𝜁, 𝜂)-widelymore generalized hybridmapping is generalized hybrid in thesense of Kocourek et al. [9] if 𝛼 + 𝛽 = −𝛾 − 𝛿 = 1 and 𝜀 = 𝜁 =𝜂 = 0. We first prove an attractive point theorem for widelymore generalized hybrid mappings in a Hilbert space.

    Theorem 8. Let𝐻 be a real Hilbert space, let𝐶 be a nonemptysubset of 𝐻, and let 𝑇 be an (𝛼, 𝛽, 𝛾, 𝛿, 𝜀, 𝜁, 𝜂)-widely moregeneralized hybrid mapping from 𝐶 into itself which satisfieseither of the following conditions:

    (1) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛾 > 0, 𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0 and 𝜁 + 𝜂 ≥ 0;(2) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛽 > 0, 𝜁 + 𝜂 ≥ 0 and 𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0.

    Then 𝑇 has an attractive point if and only if there exists𝑧 ∈ 𝐶 such that {𝑇𝑛𝑧 | 𝑛 = 0, 1, . . .} is bounded.

    Proof. Suppose that𝑇 has an attractive point 𝑧.Then ‖𝑇𝑛+1𝑥−𝑧‖ ≤ ‖𝑇

    𝑛𝑥 − 𝑧‖ for all 𝑥 ∈ 𝐶 and 𝑛 ∈ N. Therefore {𝑇𝑛𝑧 | 𝑛 =

    0, 1, . . .} is bounded.Conversely suppose that there exists 𝑧 ∈ 𝐶 such

    that {𝑇𝑛𝑧 | 𝑛 = 0, 1, . . .} is bounded. Since 𝑇 is an(𝛼, 𝛽, 𝛾, 𝛿, 𝜀, 𝜁, 𝜂)-widely more generalized hybrid mappingfrom 𝐶 into itself, we obtain that

    (15)

    for any 𝑛 ∈ N ∪ {0} and 𝑥 ∈ 𝐶. By (9) we obtain that

    This implies that 𝑝 ∈ 𝐻 is an attractive point.In the case of 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛽 > 0, 𝜁 + 𝜂 ≥ 0, and

    𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0, we can obtain the result by replacing the variables𝑥 and 𝑦. This completes the proof.

    Using Theorem 8, we can show the following attractivepoint theorem for generalized hybrid mappings in a Hilbertspace.

    Theorem9 (Takahashi and Takeuchi [12]). Let𝐻 be aHilbertspace, let 𝐶 be a nonempty subset of 𝐻, and let 𝑇 be ageneralized hybrid mapping from 𝐶 into 𝐶; that is, there existreal numbers 𝛼 and 𝛽 such that

    2

    (31)

    for all 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐶. Then 𝑇 has an attractive point if and only ifthere exists 𝑧 ∈ 𝐶 such that {𝑇𝑛𝑧 | 𝑛 = 0, 1, . . .} is bounded.

    Proof. An (𝛼, 𝛽)-generalized hybrid mapping 𝑇 is an (𝛼, 1 −𝛼, −𝛽, −(1 − 𝛽), 0, 0, 0)-widely more generalized hybrid map-ping. Furthermore, the mapping satisfies the condition (2) inTheorem 8, that is,

    𝛼 + (1 − 𝛼) − 𝛽 − (1 − 𝛽) = 0 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + (1 − 𝛼) = 1 > 0,

    0 + 0 ≥ 0, 0 + 0 ≥ 0.

    (32)

    Then we have the desired result fromTheorem 8.

    4. Nonlinear Ergodic Theorems

    In this section, using the technique developed by Takahashi[26], we prove a mean convergence theorem without convex-ity for widely more generalized hybrid mappings in a Hilbertspace. Before proving the result, we need the following twolemmas.

  • Abstract and Applied Analysis 5

    Lemma 10. Let 𝐶 be a nonempty subset of a real Hilbertspace𝐻. Let𝑇 be an (𝛼, 𝛽, 𝛾, 𝛿, 𝜀, 𝜁, 𝜂)-widelymore generalizedhybrid mapping from 𝐶 into itself such that 𝐴(𝑇) ̸= 0. Supposethat it satisfies either of the following conditions:

    (1) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛾 + 𝜀 + 𝜂 > 0 and 𝜁 + 𝜂 ≥ 0;(2) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝜁 + 𝜂 > 0 and 𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0.

    For any 𝑥 ∈ 𝐶, define 𝑆𝑛𝑥 = (1/𝑛)∑

    𝑛

    𝑘=1𝑇𝑘𝑥. Then,

    lim𝑛→∞

    ‖𝑆𝑛𝑥 −𝑇𝑆

    𝑛𝑥‖ = 0. In particular, if 𝐶 is bounded, then

    lim𝑛→∞

    sup𝑥∈𝐶

    𝑆𝑛𝑥 − 𝑇𝑆𝑛𝑥 = 0. (33)

    Proof. Let 𝑥 ∈ 𝐶. Since 𝐴(𝑇) is nonempty, we obtain that𝑇𝑛+1

    𝑥 − 𝑦≤𝑇𝑛𝑥 − 𝑦

    (34)

    for any 𝑛 ∈ N ∪ {0} and 𝑦 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇). Then we have that {𝑇𝑛𝑥} isbounded. Since

    𝑆𝑛𝑥 − 𝑦 ≤

    1

    𝑛

    𝑛−1

    𝑘=0

    𝑇𝑘𝑥 − 𝑦

    ≤𝑥 − 𝑦

    (35)

    for any 𝑛 ∈ N ∪ {0} and 𝑦 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇), {𝑆𝑛𝑥 | 𝑛 = 0, 1, . . .} is also

    bounded. Using 𝛼+𝛽+𝛾+𝛿 ≥ 0 and 𝜁+𝜂 ≥ 0, as in the proofof Theorem 8 we have that

    (𝛼 + 𝜂) (𝑇𝑧 − 𝑇

    𝑘+1𝑥

    2

    −𝑇𝑧 − 𝑇

    𝑘𝑥

    2

    )

    + (𝛽 − 𝜂) (𝑧 − 𝑇𝑘+1

    )

    − 2 (𝛼+𝛾) ⟨𝑧−𝑇𝑧, 𝑧−𝑇𝑘𝑥⟩+(𝛼+𝛾+𝜀+𝜂) ‖𝑧−𝑇𝑧‖

    2

    ≤ 0

    (36)

    for any 𝑘 ∈ N∪ {0} and 𝑧 ∈ 𝐶. Summing up these inequalitieswith respect to 𝑘 = 0, 1, . . . , 𝑛−1 and dividing by 𝑛, we obtainthat

    𝛼 + 𝜂

    𝑛(𝑇𝑧 − 𝑇

    𝑛𝑥

    2

    − ‖𝑇𝑧 − 𝑥‖2)

    +𝛽 − 𝜂

    − ‖𝑧 − 𝑥‖2)

    − 2 (𝛼 + 𝛾) ⟨𝑧 − 𝑇𝑧, 𝑧 − 𝑆𝑛𝑥⟩

    + (𝛼 + 𝛾 + 𝜀 + 𝜂) ‖𝑧 − 𝑇𝑧‖2≤ 0.

    (37)

    Replacing 𝑧 by 𝑆𝑛𝑥, we obtain that

    𝛼 + 𝜂

    𝑛(𝑇𝑆𝑛𝑥 − 𝑇

    𝑛𝑥

    2

    −𝑇𝑆𝑛𝑥 − 𝑥

    )

    2

    )

    + (𝛼 + 𝛾 + 𝜀 + 𝜂)𝑆𝑛𝑥 − 𝑇𝑆𝑛𝑥

    2

    ≤ 0.

    (38)

    Since {𝑇𝑆𝑛𝑥}, {𝑆𝑛𝑥}, and {𝑇𝑛𝑥} are bounded, we have that

    (𝛼 + 𝛾 + 𝜀 + 𝜂) lim sup𝑛→∞

    𝑆𝑛𝑥 − 𝑇𝑆𝑛𝑥 ≤ 0. (39)

    Since 𝛼+𝛾+𝜀+𝜂 > 0, we have that lim𝑛→∞

    ‖𝑆𝑛𝑥−𝑇𝑆

    𝑛𝑥‖ = 0.

    In particular, if 𝐶 is bounded, then

    lim sup𝑛→∞

    sup𝑥∈𝐶

    𝑆𝑛𝑥 − 𝑇𝑆𝑛𝑥 ≤ 0, (40)

    and hence lim𝑛→∞

    sup𝑥∈𝐶

    ‖𝑆𝑛𝑥 − 𝑇𝑆

    𝑛𝑥‖ = 0.

    Similarly, we can obtain the desired result for the case of𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝜁 + 𝜂 > 0, and 𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0. Thiscompletes the proof.

    Lemma 11. Let𝐻 be a Hilbert space, and let 𝐶 be a nonemptysubset of 𝐻. Let 𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐻 be an (𝛼, 𝛽, 𝛾, 𝛿, 𝜀, 𝜁, 𝜂)-widelymore generalized hybrid mapping. Suppose that it satisfieseither of the following conditions:

    (1) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛾 > 0 and 𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0;(2) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛽 > 0 and 𝜁 + 𝜂 ≥ 0.

    If 𝑥𝑛⇀ 𝑧 and 𝑥

    𝑛− 𝑇𝑥𝑛→ 0, then 𝑧 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇).

    Proof. Let 𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐻 be an (𝛼, 𝛽, 𝛾, 𝛿, 𝜀, 𝜁, 𝜂)-widely moregeneralized hybrid mapping, and suppose that 𝑥

    𝑛⇀ 𝑧 and

    𝑥𝑛− 𝑇𝑥𝑛→ 0. Replacing 𝑥 by 𝑥

    𝑛in (14), we have that

    2

    +𝜂(𝑥𝑛−𝑇𝑥𝑛)−(𝑦−𝑇𝑦)

    2

    ≤ 0.

    (41)

    From this inequality, we have that

    𝛼 (𝑇𝑥𝑛 − 𝑥𝑛

    +𝑥𝑛 − 𝑇𝑦

    2

    + 2 ⟨𝑇𝑥𝑛− 𝑥𝑛, 𝑥𝑛− 𝑇𝑦⟩)

    Nowwe have the following nonlinear ergodic theorem forwidely more generalized hybrid mappings in a Hilbert space.

    Theorem 12. Let 𝐻 be a real Hilbert space, let 𝐶 be anonempty subset of 𝐻, let 𝑇 be an (𝛼, 𝛽, 𝛾, 𝛿, 𝜀, 𝜁, 𝜂)-widelymore generalized hybrid mapping from 𝐶 into itself such that

    𝐴(𝑇) ̸= 0, and let 𝑃 be the metric projection of 𝐻 onto 𝐴(𝑇).Suppose that 𝑇 satisfies either of the conditions:

    (1) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛾 > 0, 𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0 and 𝜁 + 𝜂 ≥ 0;(2) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛽 > 0, 𝜁 + 𝜂 ≥ 0 and 𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0.

    𝑥 − 𝑦≤𝑇𝑛𝑥 − 𝑦

    (54)

    for any 𝑛 ∈ N ∪ {0} and 𝑦 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇). Thus {𝑇𝑛𝑥} is bounded.Since

    𝑘=0

    (55)

    for any 𝑛 ∈ N ∪ {0} and 𝑦 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇), {𝑆𝑛𝑥 | 𝑛 = 0, 1, . . .} is also

    bounded.Therefore there exists a strictly increasing sequence{𝑛𝑖} and𝑝 ∈ 𝐻 such that {𝑆

    𝑛𝑖𝑥 | 𝑖 = 0, 1, . . .} converges weakly

    to 𝑝. Using 𝛼+𝛽+𝛾+𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼+𝛾 > 0, 𝜀+𝜂 ≥ 0, and 𝜁+𝜂 ≥ 0,we have from Lemma 10 that

    lim𝑛→∞

    𝑆𝑛𝑥 − 𝑇𝑆𝑛𝑥 = 0. (56)

    We have from Lemma 11 that 𝑝 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇). Since 𝐴(𝑇) is closedand convex from Lemma 6, the metric projection 𝑃 from 𝐻onto 𝐴(𝑇) is well defined. By Lemma 3, there exists 𝑞 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇)such that {𝑃𝑇𝑛𝑥 | 𝑛 = 0, 1, . . .} converges strongly to 𝑞. Tocomplete the proof, we show that 𝑞 = 𝑝. Note that the metricprojection 𝑃 satisfies

    ⟨𝑧 − 𝑃𝑧, 𝑃𝑧 − 𝑢⟩ ≥ 0 (57)

    for any 𝑧 ∈ 𝐻 and for any 𝑢 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇); see [25]. Therefore

    ⟨𝑇𝑘𝑥 − 𝑃𝑇

    𝑘𝑥, 𝑃𝑇𝑘𝑥 − 𝑦⟩ ≥ 0 (58)

    for any 𝑘 ∈ N ∪ {0} and 𝑦 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇). Since 𝑃 is the metricprojection from𝐻 onto 𝐴(𝑇) and 𝑃𝑇𝑛−1𝑥 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇), we obtainthat

    Since {𝑆𝑛𝑖𝑥 | 𝑖 = 0, 1, . . .} converges weakly to 𝑝 and {𝑃𝑇𝑛𝑥 |

    𝑛 = 0, 1, . . .} converges strongly to 𝑞, we obtain that

    ⟨𝑝 − 𝑞, 𝑦 − 𝑞⟩ ≤ 0. (62)

    Putting 𝑦 = 𝑝, we obtain

    and hence 𝑞 = 𝑝. This completes the proof.Similarly, we can obtain the desired result for the case of

    As the proof of Theorem 9, we can prove Takahashi andTakeuchi’s mean convergence theorem for generalized hybridmappings in a Hilbert space.

    5. Weak Convergence Theorems ofMann’s Type

    In this section, we prove a weak convergence theorem ofMann’s type [20] for widely more generalized hybrid map-pings in a Hilbert space by using Lemma 11 and the techniquedeveloped by Ibaraki and Takahashi [27, 28].

    Theorem 14. Let 𝐻 be a Hilbert space, and let 𝐶 be a convexsubset of 𝐻. Let 𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐶 be a widely more generalizedhybrid mapping with𝐴(𝑇) ̸= 0 such that it satisfies either of theconditions:

    (1) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛾 > 0 and 𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0;(2) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛽 > 0 and 𝜁 + 𝜂 ≥ 0.

    Let 𝑃 be the metric projection of 𝐻 onto 𝐴(𝑇). Let {𝛼𝑛}

    be a sequence of real numbers such that 0 ≤ 𝛼𝑛≤ 1 and

    lim inf𝑛→∞

    𝛼𝑛(1 − 𝛼

    𝑛) > 0. Suppose that {𝑥

    𝑛} is the sequence

    generated by 𝑥1= 𝑥 ∈ 𝐶 and

    𝑥𝑛+1

    = 𝛼𝑛𝑥𝑛+ (1 − 𝛼

    𝑛) 𝑇𝑥𝑛, 𝑛 ∈ N. (66)

    Then {𝑥𝑛} converges weakly to V ∈ 𝐴(𝑇), where V =

    lim𝑛→∞

    𝑃𝑥𝑛.

    Proof. Let 𝑧 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇). We have that

    𝑥𝑛+1 − 𝑧

    2

    =𝛼𝑛𝑥𝑛 + (1 − 𝛼𝑛) 𝑇𝑥𝑛 − 𝑧

    2

    ≤ 𝛼𝑛

    𝑥𝑛 − 𝑧

    + (1 − 𝛼𝑛)𝑇𝑥𝑛 − 𝑧

    ≤ 𝛼𝑛

    + (1 − 𝛼𝑛)𝑥𝑛 − 𝑧

    2

    =𝑥𝑛 − 𝑧

    2

    (67)

    for all 𝑛 ∈ N. Hence lim𝑛→∞

    ‖𝑥𝑛− 𝑧‖2 exists. Then {𝑥

    𝑛} is

    bounded. We also have from (8) that𝑥𝑛+1 − 𝑧

    =𝛼𝑛𝑥𝑛 + (1 − 𝛼𝑛) 𝑇𝑥𝑛 − 𝑧

    − 𝛼𝑛(1 − 𝛼

    𝑛)𝑇𝑥𝑛 − 𝑥𝑛

    2

    .

    (68)

    Thus we have

    𝛼𝑛(1 − 𝛼

    2

    ≤𝑥𝑛 − 𝑧

    2

    −𝑥𝑛+1 − 𝑧

    2

    . (69)

    Since lim𝑛→∞

    ‖𝑥𝑛− 𝑧‖2 exists and lim inf

    𝑛→∞𝛼𝑛(1−𝛼𝑛) > 0,

    we have that𝑇𝑥𝑛 − 𝑥𝑛

    → 0. (70)

    Since {𝑥𝑛} is bounded, there exists a subsequence {𝑥

    𝑛𝑖} of {𝑥

    𝑛}

    such that 𝑥𝑛𝑖

    ⇀ V. By Lemma 11 and (70), we obtain thatV ∈ 𝐴(𝑇). Let {𝑥

    𝑛𝑖} and {𝑥

    𝑛𝑗} be two subsequences of {𝑥

    𝑛}

    such that 𝑥𝑛𝑖

    ⇀ V1and 𝑥

    𝑛𝑗⇀ V2. To complete the proof,

    we show V1= V2. We know that V

    1, V2∈ 𝐴(𝑇), and hence

    lim𝑛→∞

    ‖𝑥𝑛− V1‖2 and lim

    𝑛→∞‖𝑥𝑛− V2‖2 exist. Put

    𝑎 = lim𝑛→∞

    (𝑥𝑛 − V1

    2

    ) . (71)

    Note that for 𝑛 = 1, 2, . . .,𝑥𝑛 − V1

    = 2 ⟨𝑥𝑛, V2− V1⟩ +

    V1

    2

    .

    (72)

    From 𝑥𝑛𝑖⇀ V1and 𝑥

    𝑛𝑗⇀ V2, we have

    𝑎 = 2 ⟨V1, V2− V1⟩ +

    V1

    2

    2

    , (73)

    𝑎 = 2 ⟨V2, V2− V1⟩ +

    V1

    2

    −V2

    2

    . (74)

  • 8 Abstract and Applied Analysis

    Combining (73) and (74), we obtain 0 = 2⟨V2− V1, V2− V1⟩.

    Thus we obtain V2= V1. This implies that {𝑥

    𝑛} converges

    weakly to an element V ∈ 𝐴(𝑇). Since ‖𝑥𝑛+1

    − 𝑧‖ ≤ ‖𝑥𝑛− 𝑧‖

    for all 𝑧 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇) and 𝑛 ∈ N, we obtain from Lemma 3 that{𝑃𝑥𝑛} converges strongly to an element 𝑝 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇). On the

    other hand, we have from the property of 𝑃 that

    ⟨𝑥𝑛− 𝑃𝑥𝑛, 𝑃𝑥𝑛− 𝑢⟩ ≥ 0 (75)

    for all 𝑢 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇) and 𝑛 ∈ N. Since 𝑥𝑛⇀ V and 𝑃𝑥

    𝑛→ 𝑝, we

    obtain

    ⟨V − 𝑝, 𝑝 − 𝑢⟩ ≥ 0 (76)

    for all 𝑢 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇). Putting 𝑢 = V, we obtain 𝑝 = V. This meansV = lim

    𝑛→∞𝑃𝑥𝑛. This completes the proof.

    Using Theorem 14, we can show the following weakconvergence theorem of Mann’s type for generalized hybridmappings in a Hilbert space.

    Theorem 15 (Kocourek et al. [9]). Let 𝐻 be a Hilbert space,and let 𝐶 be a closed convex subset of 𝐻. Let 𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐶be a generalized hybrid mapping with 𝐹(𝑇) ̸= 0. Let {𝛼

    𝑛} be

    a sequence of real numbers such that 0 ≤ 𝛼𝑛

    ≤ 1 andlim inf

    𝑛→∞𝛼𝑛(1 − 𝛼

    𝑛) > 0. Suppose {𝑥

    𝑛} is the sequence

    generated by 𝑥1= 𝑥 ∈ 𝐶 and

    𝑥𝑛+1

    = 𝛼𝑛𝑥𝑛+ (1 − 𝛼

    𝑛) 𝑇𝑥𝑛, 𝑛 ∈ N. (77)

    Then the sequence {𝑥𝑛} converges weakly to an element V ∈

    𝐹(𝑇).

    Proof. As in the proof of Theorem 9, a generalized hybridmapping is a widely more generalized hybrid mapping. Since{𝑥𝑛} ⊂ 𝐶 and 𝐶 is closed and convex, we have from

    Theorem 14 that V ∈ 𝐴(𝑇)∩𝐶. A generalized hybrid mappingwith 𝐹(𝑇) ̸= 0 is quasi-nonexpansive, we have from Lemma 7that 𝐴(𝑇) ∩ 𝐶 = 𝐹(𝑇). Thus {𝑥

    𝑛} converges weakly to an

    element V ∈ 𝐹(𝑇).

    6. Strong Convergence Theorem

    In this section, using an idea of mean convergence byShimizu andTakahashi [21, 29], we prove the following strongconvergence theorem for widely more generalized hybridmappings in a Hilbert space.

    Theorem 16. Let 𝐶 be a nonempty convex subset of a realHilbert space 𝐻. Let 𝑇 be a widely more generalized hybridmapping of𝐶 into itself with𝐴(𝑇) ̸= 0 such that it satisfies eitherof the following conditions:

    (1) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛾 > 0, 𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0 and 𝜁 + 𝜂 ≥ 0;(2) 𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛽 > 0, 𝜁 + 𝜂 ≥ 0 and 𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0.Let 𝑢 ∈ 𝐶, and define sequences {𝑥

    𝑛} and {𝑧

    𝑛} in 𝐶 as

    follows: 𝑥1= 𝑥 ∈ 𝐶 and

    𝑥𝑛+1

    ∞. If 𝐴(𝑇) is nonempty, then {𝑥𝑛} and {𝑧

    𝑛} converge strongly

    to 𝑃𝑢, where 𝑃 is the metric projection of𝐻 onto 𝐴(𝑇).

    Proof. Since 𝑇 : 𝐶 → 𝐶 is a widely more generalized hybridmapping, there exist 𝛼, 𝛽, 𝛾, 𝛿, 𝜀, 𝜁, 𝜂 ∈ R such that

    2≤ 0 (89)

    for all 𝑧 ∈ 𝐶. This implies that 𝑤 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇).On the other hand, since 𝑥

    bounded, and 𝛼𝑛→ 0, we have lim

    𝛼 + 𝛽 + 𝛾 + 𝛿 ≥ 0, 𝛼 + 𝛽 > 0, 𝜁 + 𝜂 ≥ 0, and 𝜀 + 𝜂 ≥ 0.

    Using Theorem 16, we can show the following resultobtained by Kurokawa and Takahashi [30].

    Theorem 17 (Hojo and Takahashi [22]). Let𝐶 be a nonemptyclosed convex subset of a real Hilbert space 𝐻. Let 𝑇 be ageneralized hybrid mapping of 𝐶 into itself. Let 𝑢 ∈ 𝐶 anddefine two sequences {𝑥

    𝑛} and {𝑧

    𝑛} in 𝐶 as follows: 𝑥

    1= 𝑥 ∈ 𝐶

    and𝑥𝑛+1

    𝑛→ 0 and ∑∞

    𝑛=1𝛼𝑛=

    ∞. If 𝐹(𝑇) is nonempty, then {𝑥𝑛} and {𝑧

    𝑛} converge strongly

    to 𝑃𝑢 ∈ 𝐹(𝑇), where 𝑃 is the metric projection of𝐻 onto𝐴(𝑇).

    Proof. As in the proof of Theorem 9, a generalized hybridmapping is a widely more generalized hybrid mapping. Since{𝑥𝑛}, {𝑧𝑛} ⊂ 𝐶 and 𝐶 is closed and convex, we have from

    Theorem 16 that 𝑃𝑢 ∈ 𝐴(𝑇) ∩ 𝐶. A generalized hybridmapping with 𝐹(𝑇) ̸= 0 is quasi-nonexpansive, we have fromLemma 7 that 𝐴(𝑇) ∩ 𝐶 = 𝐹(𝑇). Thus {𝑥

    𝑛} and {𝑧

    𝑛} converge

    strongly to an element 𝑃𝑢 ∈ 𝐹(𝑇).

    This paper is devoted to the convergence of the implicit Ishikawa iteration processes for approximating a common fixed point ofnonexpansive semigroup in CAT(0) spaces. We obtain the Δ-convergence results of the implicit Ishikawa iteration sequences fora family of nonexpansive mappings in CAT(0) spaces. Under certain and different conditions, we also get the strong convergencetheorems of implicit Ishikawa iteration sequences for nonexpansive semigroups in the CAT(0) spaces.The results presented in thispaper extend and generalize some previous results.

    1. Introduction

    Let (𝑋, 𝑑)be ametric space and𝐾be a subset of𝑋. Amapping𝑇 : 𝐾 → 𝑋 is said to be nonexpansive if 𝑑(𝑇𝑥, 𝑇𝑦) ≤ 𝑑(𝑥, 𝑦)for all 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐾. We denote the set of all nonnegative elementsinR byR+ and denote the set of all fixed points of 𝑇 by 𝐹(𝑇),that is,

    𝐹 (𝑇) = {𝑥 ∈ 𝐾 : 𝑇𝑥 = 𝑥} . (1)

    For each 𝑛 ∈ N, let 𝑇𝑛: 𝐾 → 𝐾 be nonexpansive mappings

    and denote the common fixed points set of the family {𝑇𝑛} by

    ⋂∞

    𝑛=1𝐹(𝑇𝑛). A family of mappings {𝑇

    𝑛} is said to be uniformly

    asymptotically regular if, for any bounded subset 𝐵 of𝐾,

    lim𝑛→∞

    sup𝑧∈𝐵

    𝑑 (𝑇𝑛𝑧, 𝑇𝑖(𝑇𝑛𝑧)) = 0, (2)

    for all 𝑖 ∈ N.A nonexpansive semigroup is a family,

    Γ := {𝑇 (𝑡) : 𝑡 ≥ 0} , (3)

    of mappings 𝑇(𝑡) on𝐾 such that

    (1) 𝑇(𝑠 + 𝑡)𝑥 = 𝑇(𝑠)(𝑇(𝑡)𝑥) for all 𝑥 ∈ 𝐾 and 𝑠, 𝑡 ≥ 0;(2) 𝑇(𝑡) : 𝐾 → 𝐾 is nonexpansive for each 𝑡 ≥ 0;(3) for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝐾, the mapping 𝑇(⋅)𝑥 from R+ to 𝐾 is

    continuous.

    We denote by𝐹(Γ) the common fixed points set of nonex-pansive semigroup Γ, that is,

    𝐹 (Γ)

    = ⋂

    𝑡∈R+

    𝐹 (𝑇 (𝑡)) = {𝑥 ∈ 𝑋 : 𝑇 (𝑡) 𝑥 = 𝑥 for each 𝑡 ≥ 0} .

    (4)

    Note that, if 𝐾 is compact, then 𝐹(Γ) is nonempty (see [1, 2,28]).

    A geodesic from 𝑥 to 𝑦 in𝑋 is a mappingΨ from a closedinterval [0, 𝑙] ⊂ R to 𝑋 such that Ψ(0) = 𝑥, Ψ(𝑙) = 𝑦, and𝑑(Ψ(𝑡), Ψ(𝑡

    )) = |𝑡 − 𝑡

    | for all 𝑡, 𝑡 ∈ [0, 𝑙]. In particular, Ψ

    is an isometry and 𝑑(𝑥, 𝑦) = 𝑙. The image Θ of Ψ is called

  • 2 Abstract and Applied Analysis

    a geodesic (or metric) segment joining 𝑥 and 𝑦. The space(𝑋, 𝑑) is said to be a geodesic space if any two points of𝑋 arejoined by a geodesic, and 𝑋 is said to be uniquely geodesic ifthere is exactly one geodesic joining 𝑥 and 𝑦 for any 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝑋,which is denoted by [𝑥, 𝑦] and is called the segment joining 𝑥and 𝑦. A subset𝐾 of a geodesic space𝑋 is said to be convex iffor any 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐾, [𝑥, 𝑦] ⊂ 𝐾.

    A geodesic triangle Δ(𝑥1, 𝑥2, 𝑥3) in a geodesic metric

    space (𝑋, 𝑑) consists of three points 𝑥1, 𝑥2, 𝑥3in 𝑋 (the ver-

    tices of Δ) and a geodesic segment between each pair of ver-tices (the edges of Δ). A comparison triangle for the geodesictriangle Δ(𝑥

    1, 𝑥2, 𝑥3) in (𝑋, 𝑑) is a triangle Δ(𝑥

    1, 𝑥2, 𝑥3) =

    Δ(𝑥1, 𝑥2, 𝑥3) in R2 such that 𝑑R2(𝑥𝑖, 𝑥𝑗) = 𝑑(𝑥𝑖, 𝑥𝑗) for all

    𝑖, 𝑗 ∈ {1, 2, 3}. It is known that such a triangle always exists(see [3]). A geodesic space is said to be a CAT(0) space if allgeodesic triangles of appropriate size satisfy the followingcomparison axiom (CA).

    Let Δ be a geodesic triangle in (𝑋, 𝑑), and let Δ ⊂ R2be a comparison triangle for Δ. Then, Δ is said to satisfy theCAT(0) inequality if, for all 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ Δ and all comparisonpoints 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ Δ,

    𝑑 (𝑥, 𝑦) ≤ 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝑦) . (5)

    The complete CAT(0) spaces are often called, Hadamardspaces (see [4]). For any 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝑋, we denote by 𝛼𝑥⊕ (1−𝛼)𝑦the unique point 𝑧 ∈ [𝑥, 𝑦] which satisfies

    𝑑 (𝑥, 𝛼𝑥 ⊕ (1 − 𝛼) 𝑦) = (1 − 𝛼) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝑦) ,

    𝑑 (𝑦, 𝛼𝑥 ⊕ (1 − 𝛼) 𝑦) = 𝛼𝑑 (𝑥, 𝑦) .(6)

    It is known that if (𝑋, 𝑑) is a CAT(0) space and 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝑋, thenfor any 𝛽 ∈ [0, 1], there exists a unique point 𝛽𝑥 ⊕ (1 − 𝛽)𝑦 ∈[𝑥, 𝑦]. For any 𝑧 ∈ 𝑋, the following inequality holds:

    𝑑 (𝑧, 𝛽𝑥 ⊕ (1 − 𝛽) 𝑦) ≤ 𝛽𝑑 (𝑧, 𝑥) + (1 − 𝛽) 𝑑 (𝑧, 𝑦) , (7)

    where 𝛽𝑥 ⊕ (1 − 𝛽)𝑦 ∈ [𝑥, 𝑦] (for metric spaces of hyperbolictype, see [5]).

    Recently, Cho et al. [6] proved the strong convergence ofan explicit iterative sequence {𝑧

    𝑛} in a CAT(0) space, where

    {𝑧𝑛} is generated by the following iterative scheme for a non-

    expansive semigroup Γ:

    𝑧1∈ 𝐾, 𝑧

    𝑛+1= 𝛼𝑧𝑛⊕ (1 − 𝛼) 𝑇 (𝑡

    𝑛) 𝑧𝑛, ∀𝑛 ≥ 1, (8)

    where 𝛼 ∈ (0, 1) and {𝑡𝑛} ⊂ R+. The existence of fixed points,

    an invariant approximation, and convergence theorems forseveral mappings in CAT(0) spaces have been studied bymany authors (see [7–18]).

    On the other hand, Thong [19] considered an implicitMann iteration process for a nonexpansive semigroup Γ ={𝑇(𝑡) : 𝑡 ∈ R+} on a closed convex subset𝐶 of a Banach spaceas follows:

    𝑥1∈ 𝐶, 𝑥

    𝑛+1= 𝛼𝑛𝑥𝑛+ (1 − 𝛼

    𝑛) 𝑇 (𝑡𝑛) 𝑥𝑛+1

    , 𝑛 ≥ 1. (9)

    Under different conditions, Thong [19] proved the weakconvergence and strong convergence results of the implicitMann iteration scheme (9) for nonexpansive semigroups

    in certain Banach spaces. Many authors have studied theconvergence of implicit iteration sequences for nonexpansivemappings, nonexpansive semigroups and pseudocontractivesemigroups in the Banach spaces (see [20–23]). Readers mayconsult [24, 25] for the convergence of the Ishikawa iterationsequences for nonexpansive mappings and nonexpansivesemigroups in certain Banach spaces. However, to our bestknowledge, there is no paper to study the convergence of theimplicit Ishikawa type iteration processes for nonexpansivesemigroups in CAT(0) spaces. Therefore, it is of interest toinvestigate the convergence of implicit Ishikawa type iterationprocesses for nonexpansive semigroups in CAT(0) spacesunder some suitable conditions.

    Motivated and inspired by the work mentioned previ-ously, we consider the following implicit Ishikawa iterationscheme for a family of nonexpansive mappings in a CAT(0)space:

    𝑥1∈ 𝐾,

    𝑥𝑛+1

    = 𝛼𝑛𝑥𝑛⊕ (1 − 𝛼

    𝑛) ((1 − 𝜃

    𝑛) 𝑇𝑛𝑥𝑛⊕ 𝜃𝑛𝑇𝑛𝑥𝑛+1

    ) ,

    ∀𝑛 ≥ 1,

    (10)

    where {𝛼𝑛} ⊂ (0, 1] and {𝜃

    𝑛} ⊂ [0, 1] are given sequences.

    We prove that {𝑥𝑛} generated by (10) is Δ-convergent to some

    point in ⋂∞𝑛=1

    𝐹(𝑇𝑛) under appropriate conditions. We also

    consider the following implicit Ishikawa iteration process fora nonexpansive semigroup Γ = {𝑇(𝑡) : 𝑡 ∈ R+} in a CAT(0)space:

    𝑥1∈ 𝐾,

    𝑥𝑛+1

    = 𝛼𝑛𝑥𝑛⊕ (1 − 𝛼

    𝑛) ((1 − 𝜃

    𝑛) 𝑇 (𝑡𝑛) 𝑥𝑛⊕ 𝜃𝑛𝑇 (𝑡𝑛) 𝑥𝑛+1

    ) ,

    ∀𝑛 ≥ 1,

    (11)

    where {𝛼𝑛} ⊂ (0, 1] and {𝜃

    𝑛} ⊂ [0, 1] are given sequences.

    Under various and appropriate conditions, we obtain that{𝑥𝑛} generated by (11) converges strongly to a common fixed

    point of Γ.The results presented in this paper extend and gen-eralize some previous results in [6, 19].

    2. Definitions and Lemmas

    Let {𝑥𝑛} be a bounded sequence in a CAT(0) space (𝑋, 𝑑). For

    any 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, denote

    𝑟 (𝑥, {𝑥𝑛}) = lim sup

    𝑛→∞

    𝑑 (𝑥, 𝑥𝑛) . (12)

    Consider the following:

    (i) 𝑟({𝑥𝑛}) = inf{𝑟(𝑥, 𝑥

    𝑛) : 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋} is called the asymp-

    totic radius of {𝑥𝑛};

    (ii) 𝑟𝐾({𝑥𝑛}) = inf{𝑟(𝑥, 𝑥

    𝑛) : 𝑥 ∈ 𝐾} is called the asymp-

    totic radius of {𝑥𝑛} with respect to 𝐾;

    (iii) the set 𝐴({𝑥𝑛}) = {𝑥 ∈ 𝑋 : 𝑟(𝑥, {𝑥

    𝑛}) = 𝑟({𝑥

    𝑛})} is

    called the asymptotic center of {𝑥𝑛};

    (iv) the set 𝐴𝐾({𝑥𝑛}) = {𝑥 ∈ 𝐾 : 𝑟(𝑥, {𝑥

    𝑛}) = 𝑟

    𝐾({𝑥𝑛})} is

    called the asymptotic center of {𝑥𝑛}with respect to𝐾.

  • Abstract and Applied Analysis 3

    Definition 1 (see [12, 26]). A sequence {𝑥𝑛} in a CAT(0) space

    𝑋 is said to be Δ-convergent to a point 𝑥 in 𝑋, if 𝑥 is theunique asymptotic center of {𝑥

    𝑛𝑗} for all subsequences {𝑥

    𝑛𝑗} ⊆

    {𝑥𝑛}. In this case, we write Δ-lim

    𝑛→∞𝑥𝑛= 𝑥, and 𝑥 is called

    the Δ-limit of {𝑥𝑛}.

    For the sake of convenience, we restate the following lem-mas that shall be used.

    Lemma 2 (see [10]). Let (𝑋, 𝑑) be a CAT(0) space. Then,

    𝑑 ((1 − 𝑡) 𝑥 ⊕ 𝑡𝑦, 𝑧) ≤ (1 − 𝑡) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝑧) + 𝑡𝑑 (𝑦, 𝑧) , (13)

    for all 𝑥, 𝑦, 𝑧 ∈ 𝑋 and 𝑡 ∈ [0, 1].

    Lemma 3 (see [10]). Let (𝑋, 𝑑) be a CAT(0) space. Then,

    [𝑑 ((1 − 𝑡) 𝑥 ⊕ 𝑡𝑦, 𝑧)]2

    ≤ (1 − 𝑡) [𝑑 (𝑥, 𝑧)]2+ 𝑡[𝑑 (𝑦, 𝑧)]

    2

    − 𝑡 (1 − 𝑡) [𝑑 (𝑥, 𝑦)]2

    ,

    (14)

    for all 𝑥, 𝑦, 𝑧 ∈ 𝑋 and 𝑡 ∈ [0, 1].

    Lemma 4 (see [10]). Let𝐾 be a closed convex subset of a com-plete CAT(0) space and 𝑇 : 𝐾 → 𝐾 be a nonexpansive map-ping. Suppose that {𝑥

    𝑛} is a bounded sequence in 𝐾 such that

    lim𝑛→∞

    𝑑(𝑥𝑛, 𝑇𝑥𝑛) = 0 and {𝑑(𝑥

    𝑛, 𝑝)} converges for all 𝑝 ∈

    𝐹(𝑇). Then, 𝜔𝑤(𝑥𝑛) = ⋃𝐴({𝑥

    𝑛𝑗}) ⊂ 𝐹(𝑇), where the union is

    taken over all subsequences {𝑥𝑛𝑗} of {𝑥

    𝑛}. Moreover, 𝜔

    𝑤(𝑥𝑛)

    consists of exactly one point.

    Lemma 5 (see [6]). Let {𝑧𝑛} and {𝑤

    𝑛} be bounded sequences in

    a CAT(0) space𝑋. Let {𝛼𝑛} be a sequence in [0, 1] such that 0 <

    lim inf𝑛→∞

    𝛼𝑛≤ lim sup

    𝑛→∞𝛼𝑛< 1. Define 𝑧

    𝑛+1= 𝛼𝑛𝑧𝑛⊕

    (1 − 𝛼𝑛)𝑤𝑛for all 𝑛 ∈ N and suppose that

    lim sup𝑛→∞

    [𝑑 (𝑤𝑛+1

    , 𝑤𝑛) − 𝑑 (𝑧

    𝑛+1, 𝑧𝑛)] ≤ 0. (15)

    Then, lim𝑛→∞

    𝑑(𝑤𝑛, 𝑧𝑛) = 0.

    3. Main Results

    It is necessary for us to show that the implicit Ishikawa iter-ation sequences generated by schemes (10) and (11) are welldefined, before providing the main results of this presentpaper.

    Lemma 6. Let 𝐾 be a nonempty, closed, and convex subset ofa complete CAT(0) space𝑋 and 𝑇

    𝑛: 𝐾 → 𝐾 be nonexpansive

    mappings. Suppose that {𝛼𝑛} ⊂ (0, 1] and {𝜃

    𝑛} ⊂ [0, 1] are

    given parameter sequences. Then, the sequence {𝑥𝑛} generated

    by the implicit Ishikawa iteration process (10) is well defined.

    Proof. For each 𝑛 ∈ N and any given 𝑢 ∈ 𝐾, define a mapping𝑆𝑛+1

    : 𝐾 → 𝐾 by

    𝑆𝑛+1

    𝑥 := 𝛼𝑛𝑢 ⊕ (1 − 𝛼

    𝑛) ((1 − 𝜃

    𝑛) 𝑇𝑛𝑢 ⊕ 𝜃𝑛𝑇𝑛𝑥) , ∀𝑛 ≥ 1.

    (16)

    It can be verified that for any fixed 𝑛 ∈ N, 𝑆𝑛+1

    is a contractivemapping. Indeed, if setting 𝑝

    𝑛= (1 − 𝜃

    𝑛)𝑇𝑛𝑢 ⊕ 𝜃

    𝑛𝑇𝑛𝑥 and

    𝑞𝑛= (1 − 𝜃

    𝑛)𝑇𝑛𝑢 ⊕ 𝜃

    𝑛𝑇𝑛𝑦, then we have 𝑆

    𝑛+1𝑥 = 𝛼

    𝑛𝑢 ⊕ (1 −

    𝛼𝑛)𝑝𝑛and 𝑆𝑛+1

    𝑦 = 𝛼𝑛𝑢 ⊕ (1 −𝛼

    𝑛)𝑞𝑛. It follows from Lemmas

    3 and 2 that

    [𝑑 (𝑝𝑛, 𝑞𝑛)]2

    = [𝑑 (𝑝𝑛, (1 − 𝜃

    𝑛) 𝑇𝑛𝑢 ⊕ 𝜃𝑛𝑇𝑛𝑦)]2

    ≤ 𝜃𝑛[𝑑 (𝑝𝑛, 𝑇𝑛𝑦)]2

    + (1 − 𝜃𝑛) [𝑑 (𝑝

    𝑛, 𝑇𝑛𝑢)]2

    − 𝜃𝑛(1 − 𝜃

    𝑛) [𝑑 (𝑇

    𝑛𝑢, 𝑇𝑛𝑦)]2

    ≤ 𝜃𝑛{(1 − 𝜃

    𝑛) [𝑑 (𝑇

    𝑛𝑢, 𝑇𝑛𝑦)]2

    + 𝜃𝑛[𝑑 (𝑇𝑛𝑥, 𝑇𝑛𝑦)]2

    −𝜃𝑛(1 − 𝜃

    𝑛) [𝑑 (𝑇

    𝑛𝑢, 𝑇𝑛𝑥)]2

    }

    + (1 − 𝜃𝑛) 𝜃2

    𝑛[𝑑 (𝑇𝑛𝑢, 𝑇𝑛𝑥)]2

    − 𝜃𝑛(1 − 𝜃

    𝑛) [𝑑 (𝑇

    𝑛𝑢, 𝑇𝑛𝑦)]2

    = 𝜃2

    𝑛[𝑑 (𝑇𝑛𝑥, 𝑇𝑛𝑦)]2

    .

    (17)

    Consequently, 𝑑(𝑝𝑛, 𝑞𝑛) ≤ 𝜃

    𝑛𝑑(𝑇𝑛𝑥, 𝑇𝑛𝑦) ≤ 𝜃

    𝑛𝑑(𝑥, 𝑦), and

    thus,

    𝑑 (𝑆𝑛+1

    𝑥, 𝑆𝑛+1

    𝑦) ≤ (1 − 𝛼𝑛) 𝑑 (𝑝𝑛, 𝑞𝑛)

    ≤ (1 − 𝛼𝑛) 𝜃𝑛𝑑 (𝑥, 𝑦) ,

    (18)

    which shows that for each 𝑛 ∈ N, 𝑆𝑛+1

    is a contractivemapping. By induction, Banach’s fixed theorem yields that thesequence {𝑥

    𝑛} generated by (10) is well defined. This com-

    pletes the proof.

    We need the following lemma for our main results. Theanalogs of [6, Lemma 3.1] and [27, Lemma 2.2] are given inwhat follows.We sketch the proof here for the convenience ofthe reader.
