In summary, an operator $T:X\to X$ is said to be quasi nonexpansive if it has at least one fixed point in X and for all x in X, we have $d\left(Tx,p\right)\le d\left(x,p\right)$. This condition can also be rewritten as $d(Tp,p)\le0$, which makes sense since $p$ is a fixed point. This condition is satisfied by the mapping given in (2) with $\delta \in [0,1)$ for all x,y in X.

Let (X,d) be a metric space. An operator $T:X\to X$ is said to be quasi nonexpansive if T has at least one fixed point in X and, for each fixed point p, we have

$d\left(Tx,p\right)\le d\left(x,p\right)$ (1)

And also we give a mapping such that

$d\left(Tx,Ty\right)\le2\delta d\left(x,Tx\right)+\delta d\left(x,y\right)$ (2) for all x,y in X. Also $\delta \in [0,1)$.

İn (2) if we take x:= p and y:=x then we get,

$d\left(Tx,p\right)\le\delta d\left(x,p\right)<d\left(x,p\right)$. İn there, p is fixed point of T. (3)

İn (2), İf we take x:= p and y:=x we obtain d(Tx,p)=0, d(x,p)=0...So, How we write (3) ?...

From (2) we can see that $d\left(Tx,p\right)\le2\delta d\left(x,Tx\right)+\delta d\left(x,p\right)$ for all x in X. Since $d\left(x,p\right)=0$ and $d\left(Tx,p\right)\ge 0$, we obtain $d\left(Tx,p\right)\le 2\delta d\left(x,Tx\right)$. Taking $\delta \in [0,1)$ implies $d\left(Tx,p\right)\le d\left(x,Tx\right)$. Hence, we can conclude that an operator T is quasi nonexpansive if it has at least one fixed point p, and for all x in X, we have $d\left(Tx,p\right)\le d\left(x,Tx\right)$.

Based on (2), we can rewrite (3) as:

$d(Tp,p)\le\delta d(p,p)$

Since $p$ is a fixed point, $d(p,p)=0$, so we have:

$d(Tp,p)\le0$

This implies that $d(Tp,p)=0$, which makes sense since $p$ is a fixed point. Therefore, (3) is true.
 

Related to How Does a Quasi-Nonexpansive Operator Function in Metric Spaces?

1. What is a quasi-nonexpansive operator?

A quasi-nonexpansive operator is a type of operator used in functional analysis that maps a vector space onto itself while preserving the distance between vectors. In other words, the operator does not cause the distance between vectors to increase.

2. How is a quasi-nonexpansive operator different from a nonexpansive operator?

A quasi-nonexpansive operator is a generalization of a nonexpansive operator. While a nonexpansive operator strictly preserves the distance between vectors, a quasi-nonexpansive operator allows for some slight increases in distance. This can make it more useful in certain applications where strict preservation of distance may not be feasible.

3. What are some properties of quasi-nonexpansive operators?

Quasi-nonexpansive operators have a number of important properties, including the fact that they are continuous and contractive. They also have fixed points, meaning that there are vectors in the vector space that are mapped onto themselves by the operator.

4. How are quasi-nonexpansive operators used in optimization problems?

Quasi-nonexpansive operators are commonly used in solving optimization problems, particularly those involving convex functions. They can help find solutions that are close to the optimal solution, even if the optimal solution is not known.

5. Are there any limitations to using quasi-nonexpansive operators?

While quasi-nonexpansive operators have many useful properties, they do have some limitations. For example, they may not work well with non-convex functions and may not always converge to the optimal solution. Additionally, there may be cases where a nonexpansive operator is a more appropriate choice for a particular problem.
