On the boundedness of infinite products of relaxed projections: perturbations resilience and dynamic string-averaging

Very recently (2026), Bauschke and Tung extended from finite- to infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces a result published by Meshulam in 1996 (following an earlier result of Aharoni-Duchet-Wajnryb from 1984) regarding the boundedness of infinite products of relaxed projections onto a finite family of closed affine subspaces. In the present note we extend in various ways the result of Bauschke and Tung by allowing certain perturbations and proving perturbation resilience, by considering a mixture of closed half-spaces and closed hyperplanes, and by using dynamic weighted sums of dynamic strings (of dynamic lengths) of relaxed projections in the iterative process. We also discuss the limitation to generalize the Bauschke-Tung result to arbitrary closed and convex sets by presenting a large family of counterexamples in which the associated control is not cyclic and not even almost cyclic. Along the way we establish a general theorem of independent interest regarding the uniform boundedness and uniform unboundedness of infinite products of nonexpansive mappings in a normed space setting.
