Semilocal Convergence of a Class of Modified Super-Halley Methods in Banach Spaces

In this paper, we consider the semilocal convergence of a class of modified super-Halley methods for solving nonlinear equations in Banach spaces. The semilocal convergence of this class of methods is established by using recurrence relations. We construct a system of recurrence relations for the methods, and based on it, we prove an existence–uniqueness theorem that shows the R-order of the methods.     

Semilocal convergence of a multipoint fourth-order super-Halley method in Banach spaces

In this paper, we study a variant of the super-Halley method with fourth-order convergence for nonlinear equations in Banach spaces. We make an attempt to establish the semilocal convergence of this method by using recurrence relations. The recurrence relations for the method are derived and then an existence-uniqueness theorem is given to establish the R-order of the method to be four and a priori error bounds. Finally, some numerical applications are presented to demonstrate our approach.     

Analysis of Convergence for Improved Chebyshev–Halley Methods Under Different Conditions

In this paper, we study a class of improved Chebyshev–Halley methods in Banach spaces and prove the semilocal convergence for these methods. Compared with the super-Halley method, these methods need one less inversion of an operator, and the R-order of these methods is also higher than the one of super-Halley method under the same conditions. Using recurrence relations, we analyze the semilocal convergence for these methods under two different convergence conditions. The convergence theorems are proved to show the existence and uniqueness of a solution. We also give some numerical results to show our approach.     

Semilocal convergence of a k-step iterative process and its application for solving a special kind of conservative problems

In this paper, we analyze the semilocal convergence of k-steps Newton’s method with frozen first derivative in Banach spaces. The method reaches order of convergence k + 1. By imposing only the assumption that the Fréchet derivative satisfies the Lipschitz continuity, we define appropriate recurrence relations for obtaining the domains of convergence and uniqueness. We also define the accessibility regions for this iterative process in order to guarantee the semilocal convergence and perform a complete study of their efficiency. Our final aim is to apply these theoretical results to solve a special kind of conservative systems.

Recurrence relations for semilocal convergence of a fifth-order method in Banach spaces

In this paper, we study the semilocal convergence for a fifth-order method for solving nonlinear equations in Banach spaces. The semilocal convergence of this method is established by using recurrence relations. We prove an existence-uniqueness theorem and give a priori error bounds which demonstrates the R-order of the method. As compared with the Jarratt method in Hernández and Salanova (Southwest J Pure Appl Math 1:29–40, 1999) and the Multi-super-Halley method in Wang et al. (Numer Algorithms 56:497–516, 2011), the differentiability conditions of the convergence of the method in this paper are mild and the R-order is improved. Finally, we give some numerical applications to demonstrate our approach.

Finally, we apply the methods to two examples in order to illustrate the presented theory.

Finally, we give some numerical applications to demonstrate our approach.     

How to Improve the Domain of Starting Points for Steffensen's Method

We analyze the semilocal convergence of Steffensen's method, using a novel technique, which is based on recurrence relations, for solving systems of nonlinear equations. This technique allows analyzing the convergence of Steffensen's method to solutions of equations, where the function involved can be both differentiable and nondifferentiable. Moreover, this technique also allows enlarging the domain of starting points for Steffensen's method from certain predictions with the simplified Steffensen method.

The aim of this paper is to study the semilocal convergence of the eighth-order iterative method by using the recurrence relations for solving nonlinear equations in Banach spaces. The existence and uniqueness theorem has been proved along with priori error bounds. We have also presented the comparative study of the computational efficiency in case of R^m with some existing methods whose semilocal convergence analysis has been already discussed. Finally, numerical application on nonlinear integral equations is given to show our approach.     

On the semilocal convergence of efficient Chebyshev-Secant-type methods

We introduce a three-step Chebyshev-Secant-type method (CSTM) with high efficiency index for solving nonlinear equations in a Banach space setting. We provide a semilocal convergence analysis for (CSTM) using recurrence relations. Numerical examples validating our theoretical results are also provided in this study.     

Recurrence relations for semilocal convergence of a Newton-like method in Banach spaces

The aim of this paper is to establish the semilocal convergence of a multipoint third order Newton-like method for solving F(x)=0 in Banach spaces by using recurrence relations. The convergence of this method is studied under the assumption that the second Fréchet derivative of F satisfies Hölder continuity condition. This continuity condition is milder than the usual Lipschitz continuity condition. A new family of recurrence relations are defined based on the two new constants which depend on the operator F. These recurrence relations give a priori error bounds for the method. Two numerical examples are worked out to demonstrate the applicability of the method in cases where the Lipschitz continuity condition over second derivative of F fails but Hölder continuity condition holds.     

Semilocal convergence of a modified multi-point Jarratt method in Banach spaces under general continuity condition

The semilocal convergence for a modified multi-point Jarratt method for solving non-linear equations in Banach spaces is established with the third-order Fréchet derivative of the operator under a general continuity condition. The recurrence relations are derived for the method, and from this, we prove an existence-uniqueness theorem, and give a priori error bounds. The R-order of the method is also analyzed with the third-order Fréchet derivative of the operator under different continuity conditions. Numerical application on non-linear integral equation of the mixed type is given to show our approach.     

A uniparametric family of iterative processes for solving nondifferentiable equations

In this work we study a class of secant-like iterations for solving nonlinear equations in Banach spaces. We consider a condition for divided differences which generalizes the usual ones, i.e., Lipschitz and Hölder continuous conditions. A semilocal convergence result is obtained for nondifferentiable operators. For that, we use a technique based on a new system of recurrence relations to obtain domains of existence and uniqueness of the solution. Finally, we apply our results to the numerical solution of several examples.

Complexity analysis of an interior-point algorithm for linear optimization based on a new proximity function

In this paper, we focus on a family of modified Chebyshev methods and study the semilocal convergence for these methods. Different from the results in reference (Hernández and Salanova, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 126:131–143, 2000), the Hölder continuity of the second derivative is replaced by its generalized continuity condition, and the latter is weaker than the former. Using the recurrence relations, we establish the semilocal convergence of these methods and prove a convergence theorem to show the existence-uniqueness of the solution. The R-order of these methods is also analyzed. Especially, when the second derivative of the operator is Hölder continuous, the R-order of these methods is at least 3 + 2p, which is higher than the one of Chebyshev method considered in reference (Hernández and Salanova, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 126:131–143, 2000) under the same condition. Finally, we give some numerical results to show our approach.     

Semilocal convergence for a family of Chebyshev-Halley like iterations under a mild differentiability condition

The semilocal convergence of a family of Chebyshev-Halley like iterations for nonlinear operator equations is studied under the hypothesis that the first derivative satisfies a mild differentiability condition. This condition includes the usual Lipschitz condition and the H?lder condition as special cases. The method employed in the present paper is based on a family of recurrence relations. The R-order of convergence of the methods is also analyzed. As well, an application to a nonlinear Hammerstein integral equation of the second kind is provided. Furthermore, two numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the applicability and efficiency of the convergence results.     

A convergence analysis and applications for the Newton-Kantorovich method in K-normed spaces

We study the local and semilocal convergence of the Newton-Kantorovich method to a solution of a nonlinear operator equation on aK-normed space setting. Using more precise majorizing sequences than before we show that in the semilocal case finer error bounds can be determined on the distances involved and an at least as precise information on the location of the solution as in earlier results. In the local case we show that a larger radius of convergence can be obtained.
