Strong convergence theorems for variational inequalities and fixed points of a countable family of nonexpansive mappings

A new general iterative method for finding a common element of the set of solutions of variational inequality and the set of common fixed points of a countable family of nonexpansive mappings is introduced and studied. A strong convergence theorem of the proposed iterative scheme to a common fixed point of a countable family of nonexpansive mappings and a solution of variational inequality of an inverse strongly monotone mapping are established. Moreover, we apply our main result to obtain strong convergence theorems for a countable family of nonexpansive mappings and a strictly pseudocontractive mapping, and a countable family of uniformly k-strictly pseudocontractive mappings and an inverse strongly monotone mapping. Our main results improve and extend the corresponding result obtained by Klin-eam and Suantai (J Inequal Appl 520301, 16 pp, 2009). Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 47H09, 47H10
