A Construction of Monotonically Convergent Sequences from Successive Approximations in Certain Banach Spaces.
The Newton-Kantorovich approach and the majorant principle are used to provide new local and semilocal convergence results for Newton-like methods using outer or generalized inverses in a Banach space setting. Using the same conditions as before, we provide more precise information on the location of the solution and on the error bounds on the distances involved. Moreover since our Newton-Kantorovich-type hypothesis is weaker than before, we can cover cases where the original Newton-Kantorovich...
We provide a local as well as a semilocal convergence analysis for Newton's method to approximate a locally unique solution of an equation in a Banach space setting. Using a combination of center-gamma with a gamma-condition, we obtain an upper bound on the inverses of the operators involved which can be more precise than those given in the elegant works by Smale, Wang, and Zhao and Wang. This observation leads (under the same or less computational cost) to a convergence analysis with the following...
We study the convergence of the iterations in a Hilbert space , where maps into itself and is a linear projection operator. The iterations converge to the unique fixed point of , if the operator is continuous and the Lipschitz constant . If an operator satisfies these assumptions and is an orthogonal projection such that , then the operator is defined and continuous in and satisfies .
We consider a variational formulation of the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations with mixed boundary conditions and prove that the variational problem admits a solution provided that the domain satisfies a suitable regularity assumption. Next, we propose a finite element discretization relying on the Galerkin method and establish a priori and a posteriori error estimates.
From Kantorovich’s theory we present a semilocal convergence result for Newton’s method which is based mainly on a modification of the condition required to the second derivative of the operator involved. In particular, instead of requiring that the second derivative is bounded, we demand that it is centered. As a consequence, we obtain a modification of the starting points for Newton’s method. We illustrate this study with applications to nonlinear integral equations of mixed Hammerstein type.

The Newton-Kantorovich hypothesis (15) has been used for a long time as a sufficient condition for convergence of Newton's method to a locally unique solution of a nonlinear equation in a Banach space setting. Recently in [3], [4] we showed that this hypothesis can always be replaced by a condition weaker in general (see (18), (19) or (20)) whose verification requires the same computational cost. Moreover, finer error bounds and at least as precise information on the location of the solution can...
