On the construction of common fixed points for semigroups of nonlinear mappings in uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach spaces

Let C be a bounded, closed, convex subset of a uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space X. We investigate the weak convergence of the generalized Krasnosel'skii-Mann and Ishikawa iteration processes to common fixed points of semigroups of nonlinear mappings Tt: C → C. Each of Tt: is assumed to be pointwise Lipschitzian, that is, there exists a family of functions αt: C → [0, ∞) such that ||Tt(x) — Tt(y)\\ ≤ αt:(x) || - y|| for x,y € C. The paper demonstrates how the weak compactness of C plays an essential role in proving the weak convergence of these processes to common fixed points.
