Abstract
We prove a convergence result and a data dependence for Ishikawa iteration when applied to contraction-like operators. An example is given, in which instead of computing the fixed point of an operator, we approximate the operator with a contractive-like one. For which it is possible to compute the fixed point, and therefore to approximate the fixed point of the initial operator.

An example is given, in which instead of computing the fixed point of an operator, we approximate the operator with a contractive-like one.

1. Introduction
Let be a real Banach space; let be a nonempty convex closed and bounded set. Let be two maps. For a given , we consider the Ishikawa iteration (see [1]) for and :
where , and
| (1.3) |
Set , to obtain the Mann iteration, see [2].
The map is called Kannan mappings, see [3], if there exists such that for all ,
| (1.4) |
Similar mappings are Chatterjea mappings, see [4], for which there exists such that for all ,
| (1.5) |
Zamfirescu collected these classes. He introduced the following definition, see [5].
Definition 1.1 (see [5,6]). The operator satisfies condition (Zamfirescu condition) if and only if there exist the real numbers satisfying such that for each pair in , at least one condition is true:
(i) ,
(ii) ,
(iii) .
It is known, see Rhoades [7], that , and are independent conditions. Consider . Since satisfies condition , at least one of the conditions from , and ( ) is satisfied. If ( ) holds, then
| (1.6) |
Thus
| (1.7) |
From one obtains,
| (1.8) |
If holds, then one gets
| (1.9) |
Hence,
| (1.10) |
that is,
| (1.11) |
Denote
| (1.12) |
to obtain
| (1.13) |
Finally, we get
| (1.14) |
Formula (1.14) was obtained as in [8].
Osilike and Udomene introduced in [9] a more general definition of a quasicontractive operator; they considered the operator for which there exists and such that
| (1.15) |
Imoru and Olatinwo considered in [10], the following general definition. Because they failed to name them, we will call them here contractive-like operators.
Definition 1.2. One calls contractive-like the operator if there exist a constant ) and a strictly increasing and continuous function with such that for each ,
| (1.16) |
In both papers [9, 10], the -stability of Picard and Mann iterations was studied.
2. Preliminaries
The data dependence abounds in literature of fixed point theory when dealing with PicardBanach iteration, but is quasi-inexistent when dealing with Mann-Ishikawa iteration. As far as we know, the only data-dependence result concerning Mann-Ishikawa iteration is in [11]. There, the data dependence of Ishikawa iteration was proven when applied to contractions. In this note, we will prove data-dependence results for Ishikawa iteration when applied to the above contractive-like operators. Usually, Ishikawa iteration is more complicated but nevertheless more stable as Mann iteration. There is a classic example, see [12], in which Mann iteration does not converge while Ishikawa iteration does. This is the main reason for considering Ishikawa iteration in Theorem 3.2.
The following remark is obvious by using the inequality .
Remark 2.1. Let be a nonnegative sequence such that . If , then .
The following is similar to lemma from [13]. (Note that another proof for this lemma [13] can be found in [11].)
Lemma 2.2. Let be a nonnegative sequence for which one supposes there exists , such that for all one has satisfied the following inequality:
| (2.1) |
where , and . Then,
| (2.2) |
Proof. There exists such that . Set such that the following inequality holds, for all :
| (2.3) |
Using the above Remark 2.1 with , we get the conclusion. In order to prove (2.3), consider (2.1) and the induction step:
| (2.4) | ||||
3. Main results
Theorem 3.1. Let be a real Banach space, a nonempty convex and closed set, and a contractive-like map with being the fixed point. Then for all , the iteration (1.1) converges to the unique fixed point of .
Proof. The uniqueness comes from (1.16); supposing we have two fixed points and , we get
| (3.1) |
that is, . From (1.1) and (1.16) we obtain
| (3.2) | ||||
Use Remark 2.1 with to obtain the conclusion.
This result allows us to formulate the following data dependence theorem.
Theorem 3.2. Let be a real Banach space, let be a nonempty convex and closed set, and let be a fixed number. If is a contractive-like operator with the fixed point and is an operator with a fixed point , (supposed nearest to ), and if the following relation is satisfied:
| (3.3) |
then
| (3.4) |
Proof. From (1.1) and (1.2), we have
| (3.5) |
Thus
| (3.6) |
Note that because is a continuous map and both converge to the fixed point of . Set
| (3.7) |
and use Lemma 2.2 to obtain the conclusion
| (3.8) |
Remark 3.3. (i) Set , to obtain the data dependence for Mann iteration.
(ii) The Zamfirescu operators and implicitly (Chatterjea and Kannan) are contractive-like operators, therefore our Theorem 3.2 remains true for these classes.
4. Numerical example
The following example follows the example from [8].
Example 4.1. Let be given by
| (4.1) | ||||
Then is contractive-like operator with and identity.
Note the unique fixed point is 0 . Consider now the map ,
| (4.2) | ||||
with the unique fixed point 1 . Take to be the distance between the two maps as follows:
| (4.3) |
Set . Independently of above theory, the Ishikawa iteration applied to , leads to
| Iteration step | Ishikawa iteration |
|---|---|
| 1 | 0.5 |
| 10 | 0.9 |
| 100 | 0.99 |
Note that for ,
| (4.5) |
since . (The above computations can be obtained also by using a Matlab program.) This leads us to "conclude" that Ishikawa iteration applied to converges to fixed point, . Eventually, one can see that the distance between the two fixed points is one. Actually, without knowing the fixed point of (and without computing it), via Theorem 3.2, we can do the following estimate for it:
| (4.6) |
As a conclusion, instead of computing fixed points of , choose more closely to and the distance between the fixed points will shrink too.
