Abstract

We introduce an implicit iterative process for a nonexpansive semigroup and then we prove a weak convergence theorem for the nonexpansive semigroup in a uniformly convex Banach space which satisfies Opial's condition. Further, we discuss the strong convergence of the implicit iterative process.
