Abstract In this paper, we provide the existence and convergence theorems of fixed points for left amenable semigroups of asymptotically nonexpansive type mappings in general Banach spaces, which extend and improve many recent results in this area.

1 Introduction Let E be a Banach space and C a nonempty bounded closed convex subset of E. A mapping T on C is said to be nonexpansive if Tx – Ty ≤ x – y for all x, y ∈ C. A well-known result of Browder [] asserts that if E is uniformly convex, then every nonexpansive mapping on C has a fixed point. Kirk [], Belluce and Kirk [] extended this result to the case that X has a normal structure or Opial’s property. Goebel and Kirk [] proved that if E is a uniformly convex Banach space, then every asymptotically nonexpansive mapping on C has a fixed point. As is well known, not every semigroup of nonexpansive mappings on a subset of a Banach space has a fixed point []. The existence and convergence of fixed points for semigroups of various mappings have been studied extensively [–]. Recently, Suzuki and Takahashi [], Takahashi and Zembayashi [], Zhu and Li [] proved the existence theorems of fixed points for semigroups  = {T(t) : t ≥ } of nonexpansive, asymptotically nonexpansive and asymptotically nonexpansive type mappings, respectively. For instance, in [], Takahashi and Zembayashi proved the following theorem: Theorem . [] Let C be a nonempty compact convex subset of a Banach space E and  = {T(t) : t ≥ } be a semigroup of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings on C, then the set of common fixed points F() of  is nonempty. Many results are known in the case that the semigroup G is commutative, amenable or reversible [–]. In the case of an amenable semigroup, the first result was established by Takahashi [] where he proved: © 2012 Huang et al.; licensee Springer.

Theorem . [] Let C be a nonempty compact convex subset of a Banach space E. Let  = {T(t) : t ∈ G} be an amenable semigroup of nonexpansive mappings on C. Then C contains a common fixed point for . Theorem . was proved for a commutative semigroup by DeMarr []. Later in [], Lau showed that the fixed point property
