Strong convergence theorems by a new hybrid projection algorithm for fixed point problems and equilibrium problems of two relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new hybrid projection algorithm for finding a common element of the set of common fixed points of two relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings and the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem in the framework of Banach spaces. Our results improve and extend the corresponding results announced by Takahashi and Zembayashi [W. Takahashi, K. Zembayashi, Strong and weak convergence theorems for equilibrium problems and relatively nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces, Nonlinear Anal. (2008), doi:10.1016/j.na.2007.11.031], Takahashi and Zembayashi [W. Takahashi, K.
