Research Interests

I have been working on fixed point theory and its applications to nonlinear problems in Hilbert spaces, Banach spaces, and geodesic metric spaces. I am especially interested in the asymptotic behavior of sequences generated by the proximal point algorithm and its modifications for maximal monotone operators in Banach spaces. I am also trying to find a class of nonlinear operators which is suitable for the study of the zero point problem for monotone operators in Banach spaces.

The topics can be classified as follows:

      • Modified proximal point algorithm for accretive operators in Banach spaces

      • Convex minimization theorem, Takahashi's nonconvex minimization theorem, and Bishop-Phelps' theorem

      • Proximal point algorithm and its modifications for monotone operators in Banach spaces

      • Projection methods for convex feasibility problems in Banach spaces

      • Approximation of fixed points of relatively nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces

      • On the set of common fixed points of a countable family of relatively nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces

      • On the existence of fixed points of nonspreading mappings and firmly nonexpansive-type mappings in Banach spaces

      • Approximation of fixed points of firmly nonexpansive-type mappings in Banach spaces

      • Generalizations of firmly nonexpansive mappings and their relation to monotone operator theory

      • On the existence of a common fixed point of noncommutative semigroups of nonexpansive mappings in compact convex metric spaces

      • Existence and approximation of fixed points of firmly nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert spaces

      • Existence and approximation of minimizers of convex functions in geodesic metric spaces
