## An implicit method for finding common solutions of variational inequalities and systems of equilibrium problems and fixed points of infinite family of nonexpansive mappings.(English)Zbl 1175.47058

Let $$H$$ be a Hilbert space and $$C$$ a closed convex subset of $$H$$. An equilibrium function is a mapping $$G:H\times H\to \mathbb R$$ such that (A$$_1$$) $$G(x,x)=0$$ for all $$x\in H$$. A strongly positive operator is a bounded linear operator $$A:H\to H$$ such that for all $$x\in H$$, $$\langle Ax,x\rangle\geq \bar{\gamma}\|x\|^2$$ for some $$\bar{\gamma}>0$$. Supposing that the equilibrium function $$G$$ satisfies further the conditions (A$$_2$$) for all $$x,y\in C$$, $$G(x,y)+G(y,x)\leq 0$$ (i.e., $$G$$ is monotone); (A$$_3$$) for all $$x,y,z \in C$$ $$\limsup_{t\to 0}G(tz+(1-t)x,y)\leq G(x,y)$$, and (A$$_4$$) for all $$x\in C$$, the mapping $$G(x,\cdot)$$ is convex and lsc. S. Plubtieng and R. Punpaeng [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 336, No. 1, 455–469 (2007; Zbl 1127.47053)] proposed an iteration procedure to find the unique solution $$z\in$$ $$\text{Fix}(T)\cap\text{SEP}(G)$$ of the variational inequality: (1) $$\langle(A-\gamma f)z,z-x\rangle\leq 0,$$ for all $$x\in\text{Fix}(T)\cap\text{SEP}(G)$$. Here, $$T$$ is a nonexpansive mapping on $$H$$, $$A$$ is a strongly positive operator on $$H$$, $$f$$ an $$\alpha$$-contraction on $$H$$ and $$\gamma > 0$$ an appropriate constant. In this paper, the authors extend the above result by considering a family $$G_i,\, i=1,\dots,K,$$ of equilibrium functions satisfying (A$$_2$$)–(A$$_4$$) and a family $$(T_n)_{n\in \mathbb N}$$ of nonexpansive mappings. Supposing that $$D:=\cap_{i=1}^K$$SEP$$(G_i)\cap\cap_{n\in \mathbb N}$$Fix$$(T_n)\neq \varnothing$$. They propose an implicit iteration procedure for finding the unique solution of the variational inequality (1) on the set $$D$$ and prove the strong convergence of this procedure.
