Strong convergence of Noor iteration in $L^p$ spaces via $p$-uniform convexity
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper investigates the strong convergence of Noor iteration for nonexpansive operators in $L^p$ spaces, where $1 < p < \infty$. By exploiting the $p$-uniform convexity of $L^p$, we derive explicit $p$-dependent constants in the asymptotic regularity inequalities and obtain quantitative convergence rates. We establish sufficient conditions for strong convergence, including the case of affine operators, demi-compact operators, and norm convergence. As an application, we analyze the $p$-Laplace equation for $p>1$ and validate our theoretical findings through comprehensive numerical experiments. The numerical results demonstrate the efficiency of the method and the importance of parameter selection across different nonlinearity regimes. Our work provides a quantitative refinement of known results in the literature and offers practical insights for solving nonlinear partial differential equations.
