Semilocal convergence of a sixth-order Jarratt method in Banach spaces

In this paper, we study the semilocal convergence for a sixth-order variant of the Jarratt method for solving nonlinear equations in Banach spaces. The semilocal convergence of this method is established by using recurrence relations. We derive the recurrence relations for the method, and then prove an existence-uniqueness theorem, along with a priori error bounds which demonstrates the R-order of the method. Finally, we give some numerical applications to demonstrate our approach.     

Semilocal convergence of a continuation method in Banach spaces

This paper is concerned with the semilocal convergence of a continuation method between two third-order iterative methods, namely, the Halley’s and the convex acceleration of Newton’s method, also known as the Super-Halley’s method. This convergence analysis is discussed using the recurrence relations approach. This approach simplifies the analysis and leads to improved results. The convergence analysis is established under the assumption that the second Frëchet derivative satisfies Lipschitz continuity condition. An existence-uniqueness theorem is given. Also, a closed form of error bound is derived in terms of a real parameter α ∈ [0, 1]. Two numerical examples are worked out to demonstrate the efficacy of our approach. On comparing the existence and uniqueness region and error bounds for the solution obtained by our analysis with those obtained by using majorizing sequences [15], we observed that our analysis gives better results. Further, we have observed that for particular values of the α, our analysis reduces to those for the Halley’s method (α = 0) and the convex acceleration of Newton’s method (α = 1), respectively, with improved results.     

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.     

Semilocal convergence of a family of iterative methods in Banach spaces

In this work, we prove a third and fourth convergence order result for a family of iterative methods for solving nonlinear systems in Banach spaces. We analyze the semilocal convergence by using recurrence relations, giving the existence and uniqueness theorem that establishes the R-order of the method and the priori error bounds. Finally, we apply the methods to two examples in order to illustrate the presented theory.     

Semilocal convergence of an eighth-order method in Banach spaces and its computational efficiency

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.     

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.     

Semilocal convergence of a continuation method with Hölder continuous second derivative in Banach spaces

In this paper, the semilocal convergence of a continuation method combining the Chebyshev method and the convex acceleration of Newton’s method used for solving nonlinear equations in Banach spaces is established by using recurrence relations under the assumption that the second Frëchet derivative satisfies the Hölder continuity condition. This condition is mild and works for problems in which the second Frëchet derivative fails to satisfy Lipschitz continuity condition. A new family of recurrence relations are defined based on two constants which depend on the operator. The existence and uniqueness regions along with a closed form of the error bounds in terms of a real parameter α∈[0,1]$\alpha \in [0,1]$ for the solution x^∗$x^{\ast }$ is given. Two numerical examples are worked out to demonstrate the efficacy of our approach. On comparing the existence and uniqueness regions for the solution obtained by our analysis with those obtained by using majorizing sequences under Hölder continuity condition on F^″$F^{″}$, it is found that our analysis gives improved results. Further, we have observed that for particular values of the α$\alpha$, our analysis reduces to those for the Chebyshev method (α=0$\alpha =0$) and the convex acceleration of Newton’s method (α=1)$(\alpha =1)$ respectively with improved results.     

Semilocal convergence on a family of root-finding multi-point methods in Banach spaces under relaxed continuity condition

In this paper, we consider the semilocal convergence on a family of root-finding multi-point methods. Compared with the results in reference (Hernández, M.A., Salanova, M.A., J. Comput. Appl. Math. 126, 131–143 3), these multi-point methods do not require the second derivative, Hölder continuity condition is relaxed, and the R-order is also enhanced. We prove an existence-uniqueness theorem of the solution. The R-order for these multi-point methods is at least 6 + q with relaxed continuous second derivative, where q∈[0,1].     

Semilocal convergence of a family of third-order methods in Banach spaces under Hölder continuous second derivative

In this paper, the semilocal convergence of a family of multipoint third-order methods used for solving F(x)=0$F\left(x\right)=0$ in Banach spaces is established. It is done by using recurrence relations under the assumption that the second Fréchet derivative of F$F$ satisfies Hölder continuity condition. Based on two parameters depending upon F$F$, a new family of recurrence relations is defined. Using these recurrence relations, an existence–uniqueness theorem is established to prove that the R$R$-order convergence of the method is (2+p)$(2+p)$. A priori error bounds for the method are also derived. Two numerical examples are worked out to demonstrate the efficacy of our approach.     

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.     

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.     

Modified Jarratt method with sixth-order convergence

In this paper, we present a variant of Jarratt method with order of convergence six for solving non-linear equations. Per iteration the method requires two evaluations of the function and two of its first derivatives. The new multistep iteration scheme, based on the new method, is developed and numerical tests verifying the theory are also given.     

On convergence of sections of sequences in Banach spaces

An elementary proof of the (known) fact that each element of the Banach spaceℓ _w ^p (X) of weakly absolutelyp-summable sequences (if 1≤p<∞) in the Banach spaceX is the norm limit of its sections if and only if each element ofℓ _w ^p (X) is a norm null sequence inX, is given. Little modification to this proof leads to a similar result for a family of Orlicz sequence spaces. Some applications to spaces of compact operators on Banach sequence spaces are considered.

On trajectory convergence of dissipative flows in Banach spaces

LetX be a convex compact in a real Banach spaceE. An actionU(t) (t0) of the semigroup ₊ onX is called dissipative if allU(t) are nonexpanding: U(t)x ₁–U(t)x ₂x ₁–x ₂. Let the spaceE be strongly normed. We prove that all trajectoriestU(t)x of the dissipative flowU(t) are converging fort if there are no two-dimensional Euclidean subspaces in the spaceE. In every two dimensional non-Euclidean spaceE (not necessarily strongly normed) all trajectories of the flow under consideration are converging.     

Improving the order and rates of convergence for the Super-Halley method in Banach spaces

In this study we are concerned with the problem of approximating a locally unique solution of an equation on a Banach space. A semilocal convergence theorem is given for the Super-Halley method in Banach spaces. Earlier results have shown that the order of convergence is four for a certain class of operators [4], [5], [8]. These results were not given in affine invariant form, and made use of a real quadratic majorizing polynomial. Here, we provide our results in affine invariant form showing that the order of convergence is at least four. In cases that it is exactly four the rate of convergence is improved. We achieve these results by using a cubic majorizing polynomial. Some numerical examples are given to show that our error bounds are better than earlier ones.
