### INVARIANT MEANS AND FIXED POINT PROPERTIES OF SEMIGROUP OF NONEXPANSIVE MAPPINGS

Anthony To-Ming Lau

#### Abstract

This paper outlines some of my recent joint works with Q. Takahashi on fixed point properties or ergodic properties for semigroup of nonexpansive mappings on closed convex subsets of a Banach space and their relationship with existence of left invariant mean on certain subspaces of bounded realvalued functions on the semigroup.
