We use a two-point Newton-like method to approximate a locally unique solution of a nonlinear equation containing a non-differentiable term in a Banach space setting. Using more precise majorizing sequences than in earlier studies, we present a tighter semi-local and local convergence analysis and weaker convergence criteria. This way we expand the applicability of these methods. Numerical examples are provided where the old convergence criteria do not hold but the new convergence criteria are satisfied....
We provide a semilocal convergence analysis for Newton-type methods using our idea of recurrent functions in a Banach space setting. We use Zabrejko-Zinčenko conditions. In particular, we show that the convergence domains given before can be extended under the same computational cost. Numerical examples are also provided to show that we can solve equations in cases not covered before.
Estimates of the radius of convergence of Newton's methods for variational inclusions in Banach spaces are investigated under a weak Lipschitz condition on the first Fréchet derivative. We establish the linear convergence of Newton's and of a variant of Newton methods using the concepts of pseudo-Lipschitz set-valued map and ω-conditioned Fréchet derivative or the center-Lipschitz condition introduced by the first author.
We provide a new semilocal result for the quadratic convergence of Newton's method under ω*-conditioned second Fréchet derivative on a Banach space. This way we can handle equations where the usual Lipschitz-type conditions are not verifiable. An application involving nonlinear integral equations and two boundary value problems is provided. It turns out that a similar result using ω-conditioned hypotheses can provide usable error estimates indicating only linear convergence for Newton's method.
We introduce a new idea of recurrent functions to provide a new semilocal convergence analysis for two-step Newton-type methods of high efficiency index. It turns out that our sufficient convergence conditions are weaker, and the error bounds are tighter than in earlier studies in many interesting cases. Applications and numerical examples, involving a nonlinear integral equation of Chandrasekhar type, and a differential equation containing a Green's kernel are also provided.
We provide a semilocal convergence analysis for approximating a solution of an equation in a Banach space setting using an inexact Newton method. By using recurrent functions, we provide under the same or weaker hypotheses: finer error bounds on the distances involved, and an at least as precise information on the location of the solution as in earlier papers. Moreover, if the splitting method is used, we show that a smaller number of inner/outer iterations can be obtained. Furthermore, numerical...
We provide new sufficient convergence conditions for the convergence of the secant-type methods to a locally unique solution of a nonlinear equation in a Banach space. Our new idea uses recurrent functions, and Lipschitz-type and center-Lipschitz-type instead of just Lipschitz-type conditions on the divided difference of the operator involved. It turns out that this way our error bounds are more precise than earlier ones and under our convergence hypotheses we can cover cases where earlier conditions...
We use tighter majorizing sequences than in earlier studies to provide a semilocal convergence analysis for the secant method. Our sufficient convergence conditions are also weaker. Numerical examples are provided where earlier conditions do not hold but for which the new conditions are satisfied.
We extend the applicability of Newton's method for approximating a solution of a nonlinear operator equation in a Banach space setting using nondiscrete mathematical induction concept introduced by Potra and Pták. We obtain new sufficient convergence conditions for Newton's method using Lipschitz and center-Lipschitz conditions instead of only the Lipschitz condition used in F. A. Potra, V. Pták, Sharp error bounds for Newton's process, Numer. Math., 34 (1980), 63–72, and F. A. Potra, V. Pták, Nondiscrete...
In the paper by Hilout and Piétrus (2006) a semilocal convergence analysis was given for the secant-like method to solve generalized equations using Hölder-type conditions introduced by the first author (for nonlinear equations). Here, we show that this convergence analysis can be refined under weaker hypothesis, and less computational cost. Moreover finer error estimates on the distances involved and a larger radius of convergence are obtained.

We provide a local convergence analysis for Steffensen's method in order to solve a generalized equation in a Banach space setting. Using well known fixed point theorems for set-valued maps [13] and Hölder type conditions introduced by us in [2] for nonlinear equations, we obtain the superlinear local convergence of Steffensen's method. Our results compare favorably with related ones obtained in [11].
