On a class of iterative procedures for solving nonlinear equations in Banach spaces
We provide new local and semilocal convergence results for Newton's method. We introduce Lipschitz-type hypotheses on the mth-Frechet derivative. This way we manage to enlarge the radius of convergence of Newton's method. Numerical examples are also provided to show that our results guarantee convergence where others do not.
We re-examine a quadratically convergent method using divided differences of order one in order to approximate a locally unique solution of an equation in a Banach space setting [4, 5, 7]. Recently in [4, 5, 7], using Lipschitz conditions, and a Newton-Kantorovich type approach, we provided a local as well as a semilocal convergence analysis for this method which compares favorably to other methods using two function evaluations such as the Steffensen’s method [1, 3, 13]. Here, we provide an analysis...
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.
Some strong convergence theorems of common fixed points of asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in the intermediate sense are obtained. The results presented in this paper improve and extend the corresponding results in Huang, Khan and Takahashi, Chang, Schu, and Rhoades.
Mesh-independent convergence of Newton-type methods for the solution of nonlinear partial differential equations is discussed. First, under certain local smoothness assumptions, it is shown that by properly relating the mesh parameters and for a coarse and a fine discretization mesh, it suffices to compute the solution of the nonlinear equation on the coarse mesh and subsequently correct it once using the linearized (Newton) equation on the fine mesh. In this way the iteration error will be...
