Let P be a cone in a Banach space E. In this paper, we show the existence of solutions of the operator equation y g yAx q Tx for y g P, where T is a 1-set-contraction operator in P and A is an accretive operator in P satisfying Ž . Ž . R I q A s P for all ) 0. Further, a sufficient condition for R I q A s P is also given. ᮊ
