ON THE CONVERGENCE AND APPLICATIONS OF NEWTON-LIKE METHODS FOR ANALYTIC OPERATORS

  • Published : 2002.09.01

Abstract

We provide local and semilocal theorems for the convergence of Newton-like methods to a locally unique solution of an equation in a Banach space. The analytic property of the operator involved replaces the usual domain condition for Newton-like methods. In the case of the local results we show that the radius of convergence can be enlarged. A numerical example is given to justify our claim . This observation is important and finds applications in steplength selection in predictor-corrector continuation procedures.
