Strong and weak convergence of Ishikawa iterations for best proximity pairs

Abstract

Abstract Let A and B be nonempty subsets of a normed linear space X. A mapping T : A ∪ B → A ∪ B is said to be a noncyclic relatively nonexpansive mapping if T(A) ⊆ A, T(B) ⊆ B and ∥Tx − Ty∥ ≤ ∥x − y∥ for all (x, y) ∈ A × B. A best proximity pair for such a mapping T is a point (p, q) ∈ A × B such that p = Tp, q = Tq and d(p, q) = dist(A, B). In this work, we introduce a geometric notion of proximal Opiaľs condition on a nonempty, closed and convex pair of subsets of strictly convex Banach spaces. By using this geometric notion, we study the strong and weak convergence of the Ishikawa iterative scheme for noncyclic relatively nonexpansive mappings in uniformly convex Banach spaces. We also establish a best proximity pair theorem for noncyclic contraction type mappings in the setting of strictly convex Banach spaces.
