Abstract

We show that the direct sum (X1...Xr)ψ with a strictly monotone norm has the weak fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings whenever M(Xi)>1 for each i=1,...,r. In particular, (X1...Xr)ψ enjoys the fixed point property if Banach spaces Xi are uniformly nonsquare. This combined with the earlier results gives a definitive answer for r=2: a direct sum X1ψX2 of uniformly nonsquare spaces with any monotone norm has the fixed point property. Our results are extended for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in the intermediate sense. 10.1017/S0004972713000440
