Abstract
Using the notion of Banach limits, we discuss the characterization
of fixed points of nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces. Indeed, we prove that the two sets of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping and some mapping generated by a Banach limit coincide. In our discussion, we may not assume the strict convexity of the Banach space.
