Assuming that the absence of perturbations guarantees weak or strong convergence to a common fixed point, we study the behavior of perturbed products of an infinite family of nonexpansive operators. Our main result indicates that the convergence rate of unperturbed products is essentially preserved in the presence of perturbations. This, in particular, applies to the linear convergence rate of dynamic string-averaging projection methods, which we establish here as well. Moreover, we show how this result can be applied to the superiorization methodology.
In this paper we present a systematic study of regular sequences of quasi-nonexpansive operators in Hilbert space. We are interested, in particular, in weakly, boundedly and linearly regular sequences of operators. We show that the type of the regularity is preserved under relaxations, convex combinations and products of operators. Moreover, in this connection, we show that weak, bounded and linear regularity lead to weak, strong and linear convergence, respectively, of various iterative methods. This applies, in particular, to block iterative and string averaging projection methods, which, in principle, are based on the abovementioned algebraic operations applied to projections. Finally, we show an application of regular sequences of operators to variational inequality problems.Key words and phrases: Convex feasibility problem, demi-closed operator, linear rate of convergence, metric projection, regular family of sets, subgradient projection, variational inequality.
In this paper we study variational inequalities in a real Hilbert space, which are governed by a strongly monotone and Lipschitz continuous operator F over a closed and convex set C. We assume that the set C can be outerly approximated by the fixed point sets of a sequence of certain quasi-nonexpansive operators called cutters. We propose an iterative method the main idea of which is to project at each step onto a particular half-space constructed by using the input data. Our approach is based on a method presented by Fukushima in 1986, which has recently been extended by several authors. In the present paper we establish strong convergence in Hilbert space. We emphasize that to the best of our knowledge, Fukushima's method has so far been considered only in the Euclidean setting with different conditions on F . We provide several examples for the case where C is the common fixed point set of a finite number of cutters with numerical illustrations of our theoretical results.
