Abstract: By using viscosity approximation methods for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces, some sufficient and necessary conditions for a new type of iterative sequences to converging to a fixed point which is also the unique solution of some variational inequalities are obtained. The results presented in the paper extend and improve some recent results in [C.E. Chidume, Jinlu Li, A. Udomene, Convergence of paths and approximation of fixed points of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 138 (2) (2005) 473–480; N. Shahzad, A.

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce a new iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem, the set of common fixed point for a family of infinitely nonexpansive mappings and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for -inverse-strongly monotone mappings in a Hilbert space. Under suitable conditions, some strong convergence theorems for approximating a common element of the above three sets are obtained. As applications, at the end of the paper we utilize our results to study the optimization problem and some convergence problem for strictly pseudocontractive mappings.
