Abstract

We introduce an iterative scheme by the viscosity approximate method for finding a common element of the set of solutions of a variational inclusion with set-valued maximal monotone mapping and inverse strongly monotone mappings, the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem, and the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping. We obtain a strong convergence theorem for the sequences generated by these processes in Hilbert spaces. The results in this paper unify, extend, and improve some well-known results in the literature.
