Fixed point iterations for quasi-contractive maps in uniformly smooth banach spaces

It is our purpose in this paper to first establish an inequality in real uniformly smooth Banach spaces with modulus of smoothness of power type q > 1 that generalizes a well known Hilbert space inequality. Using our inequality, we shall then extend the above result of Qihou [15] on the Ishikawa iteration process from Hilbert spaces to these much more general Banach spaces. Furthermore, we shall prove that the Mann iteration process converges strongly to the unique fixed point of a quasi-contractive map in this general setting. No compactness assumption on K is required in our theorems.
