Abstract

In the paper by Hu in 2008, the author proved a strong convergence result for nonexpansive mappings using a modified Halpern's iteration algorithm. Unfortunately, the case limnβn=1 does not guarantee the strong convergence of the sequence {xn}. In this note, we provide a counter-example to the theorem.
