Abstract

We introduce an iterative process which converges strongly to a common point of solution of variational inequality problem for continuous monotone mapping, solution of equilibrium problem and a common fixed point of finite family of asymptotically regular uniformly continuous relatively asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces. Our scheme does not involve computation of Cn+1 from Cn for each n ≥ 1. Our theorems improve and unify most of the results that have been proved for this important class of nonlinear operators.
