Fixed point properties for semigroups of nonlinear mappings on unbounded sets

Abstract

A well-known result of W. Ray asserts that if CC is an unbounded convex subset of a Hilbert space, then there is a nonexpansive mapping TT: CCC\to C that has no fixed point. In this paper we establish some common fixed point properties for a semitopological semigroup SS of nonexpansive mappings acting on a closed convex subset CC of a Hilbert space, assuming that there is a point cCc\in C with a bounded orbit and assuming that certain subspace of Cb(S)C_b(S) has a left invariant mean. Left invariant mean (or amenability) is an important notion in harmonic analysis of semigroups and groups introduced by von Neumann in 1929 \cite{Neu} and formalized by Day in 1957 \cite{Day}. In our investigation we use the notion of common attractive points introduced recently by S. Atsushiba and W. Takahashi.
