We recently showed in [5] a semilocal convergence theorem that guarantees convergence of Newton's method to a locally unique solution of a nonlinear equation under hypotheses weaker than those of the Newton-Kantorovich theorem [7]. Here, we first weaken Miranda's theorem [1], [9], [10], which is a generalization of the intermediate value theorem. Then, we show that operators satisfying the weakened Newton-Kantorovich conditions satisfy those of the weakened Miranda’s theorem.

In this paper, we investigate a family of holomorphic functions in several complex variables concerning the total derivative (or called radial derivative), and obtain some well-known normality criteria such as the Miranda's theorem, the Marty's theorem and results on the Hayman's conjectures in several complex variables. A high-dimension version of the famous Zalcman's lemma for normal families is also given.
