MSC: Primary 47H0; secondary 47H05 Keywords: Hilbert space; nonexpansive mapping; nonspreading mapping; hybrid mapping; fixed point; non-self mapping Introduction Let R bethereallineandlet[0, π ] be a bounded, closed and convex subset of R. Consider a mapping T :[0, π ] R defined by Tx = + ) x cos x x for all x [0, π ]. Such a mapping T has a unique fixed point z [0, π ]suchthatcos z = z. What kind of fixed point theorems can we use to find such a unique fixed point z of T? Let H be a real Hilbert space and let C be a non-empty subset of H. Kocourek,Takahashi and Yao [] introduced a class of nonlinear mappings in a Hilbert space which covers nonexpansive mappings, nonspreading mappings [] and hybrid mappings [3]. A mapping T : C H is said to be generalized hybrid if there exist α, β R such that α Tx Ty + α) x Ty β Tx y + β) x y.) for all x, y C. We call such a mapping an α, β)-generalized hybrid mapping. An α, β)-generalized hybrid mapping is nonexpansive for α =andβ =0,i.e., Tx Ty x y 03 Takahashi et al.; licensee Springer.

They proved fixed point theorems and nonlinear ergodic theorems of Baillon type [4] for generalized hybrid mappings; see also Kohsaka and Takahashi [5] and Iemoto and Takahashi [6].Very recently,kawasaki and Takahashi [7] introduced a broader class of nonlinear mappings than the class of generalized hybrid mappings in a Hilbert space. A mapping T from C into H is called widely more generalized hybrid if there exist α, β, γ, δ, ε, ζ, η R such that α Tx Ty + β x Ty + γ Tx y + δ x y + ε x Tx + ζ y Ty + η x Tx) y Ty) 0.) for all x, y C. Such a mapping T is called an α, β, γ, δ, ε, ζ, η)-widely more generalized hybrid mapping. In particular, an α, β, γ, δ, ε, ζ, η)-widely more generalized hybrid mapping is generalized hybrid in the sense of Kocourek, Takahashi and Yao []ifα + β = γ δ = and ε = ζ = η =0.Anα, β, γ, δ, ε, ζ, η)-widely more generalized hybrid mapping is strict pseudo-contractive in the sense of Browder and Petryshyn [8] ifα =,β = γ =0,δ =, ε = ζ =0,η = k, where0 k <.Ageneralizedhybridmappingwithafixedpointis quasi-nonexpansive. However, a widely more generalized hybrid mapping is not quasinonexpansive in general even if it has a fixed point. In [7], Kawasaki and Takahashi proved fixed point theorems and nonlinear ergodic theorems of Baillon type [4] for such widely more generalized hybrid mappings in a Hilbert space. In particular, they proved directly the Browder and Petryshyn fixed point theorem [8] for strict pseudo-contractive mappings and the Kocourek, Takahashi and Yao fixed point theorem [] for super hybrid mappings by using their fixed point theorems. However, we cannot use Kawasaki and Takahashi fixed point theorems to solve the above problem. For a nice synthesis on metric fixed point theory, see Kirk [9]. In this paper, motivated by such a problem, we prove fixed point theorems for widely more generalized hybrid non-self mappings in a Hilbert space by using the idea of Hojo, Takahashi and Yao [0] and Kawasaki and Takahashi fixedpoint theorems [7]. Using these fixed point theorems for non-self mappings, we prove the Browder and Petryshyn fixed point theorem [8] for strict pseudo-contractive non-self mappings and the Kocourek, Takahashi and Yao fixed point theorem [] for super hybrid non-self mappings. In particular, we solve the above problem by using one of our fixed point theorems. Preliminaries Throughout this paper, we denote by N the set of positive integers. Let H be a real) Hilbert space with the inner product, and the norm,respectively.from[], we know the following basic equality: For x, y H and λ R,wehave λx + λ)y = λ x + λ) y λ λ) x y..)

Let C be a non-empty, closed and convex subset of H and let T be a mapping from C into H. ThenwedenotebyFT) thesetoffixedpointsoft.

We call such a mapping an α, β, γ )-super hybrid mapping. An α, β,0)- super hybrid mapping is α, β)-generalized hybrid. Thus the class of super hybrid mappings contains generalized hybrid mappings. The following theorem was proved in []; see also []. Theorem. []) Let C be a non-empty subset of a Hilbert space H and let α, β and γ be real numbers with γ.let S and T be mappings of C into H such that T = +γ S + γ +γ I. Then S is α, β, γ )-super hybrid if and only if T is α, β)-generalized hybrid. In this case, FS)=FT). In particular, let C be a nonempty, closed and convex subset of H and let α, β and γ be real numbers with γ 0. If a mapping S : C Cisα, β, γ )-super hybrid, then the mapping T = +γ S + γ Iisanα, β)-generalized hybrid mapping of C into itself. +γ In [], Kocourek, Takahashi and Yao also proved the following fixed point theorem for super hybrid mappings in a Hilbert space. Theorem. []) Let C be a non-empty, bounded, closed and convex subset of a Hilbert space H and let α, β and γ be real numbers with γ 0. Let S : C Cbeanα, β, γ )-super hybrid mapping. Then S has a fixed point in C. In particular, if S : C C is an α, β)-generalized hybrid mapping, then S has a fixed point in C. A super hybrid mapping is not quasi-nonexpansive in general even if it has a fixed point. There exists a class of nonlinear mappings in a Hilbert space defined by Kawasaki and Takahashi [3] which covers contractive mappings and generalized hybrid mappings. A mapping T from C into H is said to be widely generalized hybrid if there exist α, β, γ, δ, ε, ζ R such that α Tx Ty + β x Ty + γ Tx y + δ x y + max { ε x Tx, ζ y Ty } 0 for any x, y C. Such a mapping T is called α, β, γ, δ, ε, ζ )-widely generalized hybrid. Kawasaki and Takahashi [3] proved the following fixed point theorem. Theorem.3 [3]) Let H be a Hilbert space, let C be a non-empty, closed and convex subset of H and let T be an α, β, γ, δ, ε, ζ )-widely generalized hybrid mapping from C into itself which satisfies the following conditions ) and ):

Veryrecently, KawasakiandTakahashi[7] also proved the following fixed point theorem which will be used in the proofs of our main theorems in this paper.

Then T has a fixed point if and only if there exists z Csuchthat{T n z n =0,,...} is bounded. In particular, a fixed point of T is unique in the case of α + β + γ + δ >0under the conditions ) and ). In particular, we have the following theorem from Theorem.4.

In particular, afixed point of T is unique in the case of α + β + γ + δ >0under the conditions ) and ). Proof We give the proof for the case of ). By the assumption, we have that for any x C, there exist y C and t with 0 < t m such that Tx = x + ty x). From this, we have Tx = ty + t)x and hence y = t t Tx + x. t Define Ux C as follows: Ux = t )x + tm m y = t ) x + t ) t Tx + x = m Tx + m m t t m m x.

Therefore, a fixed point of T is unique. Similarly, we can obtain the desired result for the case when α + β + γ + δ 0, α + β + ζ + η >0,α + γ + ε + η 0andε + η 0. This completes the proof. The following theorem is a useful extension of Theorem 3.. Theorem 3.

Next, suppose that α + β + γ + δ >0.Letp and p be fixed points of T.Asintheproof of Theorem 3.,wehavep = p. Therefore a fixed point of T is unique. In the case of α + β + γ + δ 0, α + β + ζ + η >0,α + γ + ε + η 0and[0,) {λ α + γ )λ + ε + η 0}, we can obtain the desired result by replacing the variables x and y. Remark We can also prove Theorems 3. and 3. by using the condition β δ + ε + η >0, or γ δ + ε + η >0 instead of the condition α + γ + ε + η >0, or α + β + ζ + η >0, respectively. In fact, in the case of the condition β δ + ε + η >0,weobtainfromα + β + γ + δ 0that 0< β δ + ε + η α + γ + ε + η. Thus we obtain the desired results by Theorems 3. and 3.. Similarly, in the case of γ δ + ε + η > 0, we can obtain the results by using the case of α + β + ζ + η >0. 4 Fixed point theorems for well-known mappings Using Theorem 3., we first show the following fixed point theorem for generalized hybrid non-self mappings in a Hilbert space; see also Kocourek, Takahashi and Yao [].

If α β =0,then [0, ) { λ α β) + γ )λ γ ) 0 } =[0,), that is, it satisfies the condition [0, ) {λ α + γ )λ + ε + η 0} in ) of Theorem 3.. If α β <0andγ 0, then [0, ) { λ α β) + γ )λ γ ) 0 } =[0,) { λ + γ )λ γ 0 } = [ 0, γ +γ ], that is, it again satisfies the condition [0, ) {λ α + γ )λ + ε + η 0} in ) of Theorem 3.. Then we obtain the desired result from Theorem 3.. Similarly, we obtain the desired result from Theorem 3. in the case of ).
