On the weak-approximate fixed point property

Abstract

Let X be a Banach space and C a bounded, closed, convex subset of X. C is said to have the weak-approximate fixed point property if for any norm-continuous mapping f : C → C, there exists a sequence {xn} in C such that (xn - f (xn))n converges to 0 weakly. It is known that every infinite-dimensional Banach space with the Schur property does not have the weak-approximate fixed point property. In this article, we show that every Asplund space has the weak-approximate fixed point property. Applications to the asymptotic fixed point theory are given. © 2009 Elsevier Inc.
