We introduce a new iterative scheme based on both hybrid method and extragradient method
for finding a common element of the solutions set of a system of equilibrium problems, the fixed
points set of a nonexpansive mapping, and the solutions set of a variational inequality problems
for a monotone and k-Lipschitz continuous mapping in a Hilbert space. Some convergence results
for the iterative sequences generated by these processes are obtained. The results in this paper
extend and improve some known results in the literature.
1. Introduction


In this paper, we always assume that H is a real Hilbert space with inner product ·, ·
and induced norm ·and C is a nonempty closed convex subset of H, S : C → C is a
nonexpansive mapping; that is, Sx − Sy≤x − y for all x,y ∈ C, P
C
denotes the metric
projection of H onto C,andFixS denotes the fixed points set of S.
Let {F
k
}
k∈Γ
be a countable family of bifunctions from C × C to R, where R is the set of
real numbers. Combettes and Hirstoaga 1 introduced the following system of equilibrium
problems:
finding x ∈ C, such that ∀k ∈ Γ, ∀y ∈ C, F
k

x, y

≥ 0, 1.1
where Γ is an arbitrary index set. If Γ is a singleton, the problem 1.1 becomes the following
equilibrium problem:
finding x ∈ C, such that F

x, y

≥ 0, ∀y ∈ C. 1.2
2 Fixed Point Theory and Applications
The set of solutions of 1.2 is denoted by EPF. And it is easy to see that the set of solutions
of 1.1 can be written as


k∈Γ
EPF
k
.
Given a mapping T : C → H,letFx, yTx,y − x for all x, y ∈ C. Then, the
problem 1.2 becomes the following variational inequality:
finding x ∈ C, such that

Tx,y − x

≥ 0, ∀y ∈ C. 1.3
The set of solutions of 1.3 is denoted by VIC, A.
The problem 1.1 is very general in the sense that it includes, as special cases,
optimization problems, variational inequalities, minimax problems, Nash equilibrium
problem in noncooperative games, and others; see, for instance, 1–4.
In 1953, Mann 5 introduced t he following iteration algorithm: let x
0
∈ C be an
arbitrary point, let {α
n
} be a real sequence in 0, 1, and let the sequence {x
n
} be defined
by

Mann iteration algorithm has been extensively investigated for nonexpansive mappings, for
example, please see 6, 7. Takahashi et al. 8 modified the Mann iteration method 1.4 and
introduced the following hybrid projection algorithm:

for all n ≥ 0, where λ ∈ 0, 1/k, A is monotone and k-Lipschitz continuous mapping of C

n
. She proved that, if VIC, A is nonempty, the sequences {x
n
} and {y
n
}, generated by
1.6, converge to the same point z ∈ VIC, A.
Some methods have been proposed to solve the problem 1.2; see, for instance, 10,
11 and the references therein. S. Takahashi and W. Takahashi 10 introduced the following
iterative scheme by the viscosity approximation method for finding a common element of the
Fixed Point Theory and Applications 3
set of the solution 1.2 and the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping in a real Hilbert

They proved that under certain appropriate conditions imposed on {α

sequences {x

On the other hand, Combettes and Hirstoaga 1 introduced an iterative scheme
for finding a common element of the set of solutions of problem 1.1 in a Hilbert space
and obtained a weak convergence theorem. Peng and Yao 4 introduced a new viscosity
approximation scheme based on the extragradient method for finding a common element
of the set of solutions of problem 1.1, the set of fixed points of an infinite family of
nonexpansive mappings, and the set of solutions to the variational inequality for a monotone,
Lipschitz continuous mapping in a Hilbert space and obtained two strong convergence
theorems. Colao et al. 3 introduced an implicit method for finding common solutions of
variational inequalities and systems of equilibrium problems and fixed points of infinite
family of nonexpansive mappings in a Hilbert space and obtained a strong convergence
theorem. Peng et al. 12 introduced a new iterative scheme based on extragradient method
and viscosity approximation method for finding a common element of the solutions set of
a system of equilibrium problems, fixed points set of a family of infinitely nonexpansive
mappings, and the solution set of a variational inequality for a relaxed coercive mapping
in a Hilbert space and obtained a strong convergence theorem.
In this paper, motivated by the above results, we introduce a new hybrid extragradient
method to find a common element of the set of solutions to a system of equilibrium
problems, the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping, and the set of solutions of the

variational inequality for monotone and k-Lipschitz continuous mappings in a Hilbert space

and obtain some strong convergence theorems. Our results unify, extend, and improve those
corresponding results in 8, 11 and the references therein.

For any x ∈ H, there exists a unique nearest point in C denoted by P

x such that
x − P
C
x≤x − y for all y ∈ C. The mapping P

A mapping A of C into H is called monotone if Ax − Ay, x − y≥0 for all x, y ∈ C.A
mapping A : C → H is called L-Lipschitz continuous if there exists a positive real number L
such that Ax − Ay≤Lx − y for all x, y ∈ C.
Let A be a monotone mapping of C into H. In the context of the variational inequality

For solving the equilibrium problem, let us assume that the bifunction F satisfies the

3. Main Results
In this section, we will introduce a new algorithm based on hybrid and extragradient method
to find a common element of the set of solutions to a system of equilibrium problems, the
set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping, and the set of solutions of the variational
inequality for monotone and k-Lipschitz continuous mappings in a Hilbert space and show
that the sequences generated by the processes converge strongly to a same point.
