An iterative process is considered for finding a common element in the fixed point set of a strict
pseudocontraction and in the zero set of a nonlinear mapping which is the sum of a maximal
monotone operator and an inverse strongly monotone mapping. Strong convergence theorems of
common elements are established in real Hilbert spaces.
1. Introduction and Preliminaries
Throughout this paper, we always assume that H is a real Hilbert space with the inner
product ·, · and the norm ·.
Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of H and S : C → C a nonlinear mapping.
In this paper, we use FS to denote the fixed point set of S. Recall that the mapping S is said
to be nonexpansive if
Sx − Sy≤x − y, ∀x, y ∈ C. 1.1
S is said to be κ-strictly pseudocontractive if there exists a constant κ ∈ 0, 1 such that
Sx − Sy
Ax − Ay, x − y
≥ 0, ∀x, y ∈ C. 1.3
A is said to be inverse strongly monotone if there exists a constant α>0 such that
Ax − Ay, x − y≥α
Ax − Ay
2
, ∀x, y ∈ C.
1.4
For such a case, A is also said to be α-inverse strongly monotone.
Let M : H → 2
H
be a set-valued mapping. The set DM defined by DM{x ∈ H :
Mx
/
∅} is said to be the domain of M.ThesetRM defined by RM
x∈H
Mx is said to
be the range of M.ThesetGM defined by GM{x, y ∈ H × H : x ∈ DM,y ∈ RM}
is said to be the graph of M.
Recall that M is said to be monotone if
x − y, f − g
> 0, ∀
≥ 0, ∀y ∈ C. 1.6
Denote by VIC, A of the solution set of 1.6. It is known that x ∈ C is a solution to 1.6 if
and only if x is a fixed point of the mapping P
C
I − λA, where λ>0 is a constant and I is the
identity mapping.
Recently, many authors considered the convergence of iterative sequences for the
variational inequality 1.6 and fixed point problems of nonlinear mappings see, for example,
1–32.
In 2005, Iiduka and Takahashi 7 proved the following theorem.
Theorem IT. Let C be a closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space H.LetA be an α-inverse-
strongly monotone mapping of C into H, and let S be a nonexpansive mapping of C into itself such
that FS ∩ VIC, A

In this work, motivated by the above results, we consider the problem of finding a
common element in the fixed point set of a strict pseudocontraction and in the zero set of a
nonlinear mapping which is the sum of a maximal monotone operator and a inverse strongly
monotone mapping. Strong convergence theorems of common elements are established in
real Hilbert spaces. The results presented in this paper improve and extend the corresponding
results announced by Iiduka and Takahashi 7 and Y. Yao and J C. Yao 31.
In order to prove our main results, we also need the following lemmas.
Lemma 1.1 see 22. Let C be a nonempty closed convex subset of a Hilbert space H, A : C → H
a mapping, and M : H → 2
H
