“…The asymptotically nonexpansive mappings were introduced by Goebel and Kirk [7], and they proved that if K is a nonempty bounded closed and convex subset of a uniformly convex Banach space E, then every asymptotically self-nonexpansive T on K has a fixed point. Whereafter, numerous convergence results have been proved on iterative methods for approximating fixed points of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings (e.g., Chang [5], Chidume, Li and Udomene [6], Ceng, Cubiotti and Yao [2,3], Ceng and Yao [1], Ceng, Xu and Yao [4], Lim and Xu [9], Petruşel and Yao [11,12], Song [19], Schu [13,14], Shioji and Takahashi [16,17], Tan and Xu [26], Yao and Zeng [28] and the references contained therein. In particular, Schu [14] proved the following theorems.…”
