Abstract

In this paper, we consider the problem of finding an almost surely common fixed point of a family of paracontraction maps indexed on a probability space, which we refer to as the stochastic feasibility problem. We show that a random iteration of paracontraction maps driven by an ergodic stationary sequence converges, with probability one, to a solution of the stochastic feasibility problem, provided a solution exists. As applications, we obtain non-white noise randomized algorithms to solve the stochastic convex feasibility problem and the problem of finding an almost surely common zero of a collection of maximal monotone operators.
