1. Introduction
Throughout this paper, we denote by and the sets of positive integers and real numbers, respectively. Let be a nonempty closed subset of a real Hilbert space. Let and denote the family of nonempty subsets and nonempty closed bounded subsets of, respectively. The Hausdorff metric on is defined by
for, where. An element is called a fixed point of a multivalued mapping if. The set of fixed points of a multivalued mapping is represented by.
The multivalued mapping is called nonexpansive if
The multivalued mapping is called quasi-nonexpansive if and
Iterative process for approximating fixed points (and common fixed points) of nonexpansive multivalued mappings have been investigated by various authors (see [2] -[5] ).
Recently, Kohsaka and Takahashi (see [6] [7] ) introduced an important class of mappings which they called the class of nonspreading mappings. Let be a subset of Hilbert space, they called a mapping nonspreading if
Lemoto and Takahashi [8] proved that is nonspreading if and only if
Now, inspired by [6] and [7] , we propose a definition as follows.
Definition 1.1 The multivalued mapping is called nonspreading if
(1.1)
By Takahashi [8] , We get also the multivalued mapping is nonspreading if and only if
(1.2)
Infact,
Definition 1.2 The multivalued mapping is called -strictly pseudononspreading if there exists such that
(1.3)
Observe that suppose is k-strictly pseudononspreading with, and, then
Clearly every nonspreading multivalued mapping is k-strictly pseudononspreading multivalued mapping. The following example shows that the class of k-strictly pseudononspreading mappings is more general than the class of nonspreading mappings.
Example (see [1] page 1816 Example 1), Let denote the reals with the usual norm. Let be defined for each by
The equilibrium problem for is to find such that,. The set of such solution is denoted by. Given a mapping, let for all. The if and only if is a solution of the variational inequality for all.
Numerous problems in physics, optimization, and economics can be reduced to find a solution of the equilibrium problem. Some methods have been proposed to solve the equilibrium problem see, for instance, Blum and Oettli [9] , Combettes and Hirstoaga [10] , Li and Li [11] , Giannessi, Maugeri, and Pardalos [12] , Moudafi and Thera [13] and Pardalos, Rassias and Khan [14] , Ceng et al. [15] . In the recent years, the problem of finding a common element of the set of solutions of equilibrium problems and the set of fixed points of single-valued nonexpansive mappings in the framework of Hilbert spaces has been intensively studied by many authors.
In this paper, inspired by [1] we propose an iterative process for finding a common element of the set of solutions of equilibrium problem and the set of common fixed points of k-strictly pseudononspreading multivalued mapping in the setting of real Hilbert spaces. We also prove the strong and weak convergence of the sequences generated by our iterative process. The results presented in the paper improve and extend the corresponding results in [1] and others.
2. Preliminaries and Lemma
In the sequel, we begin by recalling some preliminaries and lemmas which will be used in the proof.

Let be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space. The nearest point projection defined from onto is the function which assigns to each its nearest point denoted by in. Thus is the unique point in such that
It is known that for each
Lemma 2.2 (see [5] ) Let be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space. Let be the metric projection of onto. Let be a sequence in and let for all. Then converges strongly.
We present the following properties of a k-strictly pseudononspreading multivalued mapping.
Lemma 2.3 Let be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space, and let be a k-strictly pseudononspreading multivalued mapping. If, and, then it is closed and convex.

Next let, where and, we have
Thus and hence. This complete the proof of Lemma 2.3 Lemma 2.4 Let be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space, and let be a k-strictly pseudononspreading multivalued mapping. If, and, then is demiclosed at 0.

In addition,
We obtain. Thus and hence. This complete the proof of Lemma 2.4. ,
