A weak condition for secant method to solve systems of nonlinear equations

In this paper, a new weak condition for the convergence of secant method to solve the systems of nonlinear equations is proposed. A convergence ball with the center x0 is replaced by that with X1, the first approximation generated by the secant method with the initial data x-1 and x0. Under the bounded conditions of the divided difference, a convergence theorem is obtained and two examples to illustrate the weakness of convergence conditions are provided.Moreover, the secant method is applied to a system of nonlinear equations to demonstrate the viability and effectiveness of the results in the paper.
