Viscosity methods for common solutions for equilibrium and hierarchical fixed point problems

Implicit and explicit viscosity methods for finding common solutions of equilibrium and hierarchical fixed points are presented. These methods are used to solve systems of equilibrium problems and variational inequalities where the involving operators are complements of nonexpansive mappings. The results here are situated on the lines of the research of the corresponding results of Moudafi [Krasnoselski-Mann iteration for hierarchical fixed-point problems, Inverse Probl. 23 (2007), pp. 1635–1640; Weak convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings and equilibrium problems, to appear in JNCA], Moudafi and Mainge [Towards viscosity approximations of hierarchical fixed-points problems, Fixed Point Theory Appl.
