We propose an inertial Douglas-Rachford splitting algorithm for finding the set of zeros of the sum of two maximally monotone operators in Hilbert spaces and investigate its convergence properties. To this end we formulate first the…
The paper investigates two inertial extragradient algorithms for seeking a common solution to a variational inequality problem involving a monotone and Lipschitz continuous mapping and a fixed point problem with a demicontractive mapping in…
