We provide local convergence results in affine form for inexact Newton-like as well as quasi-Newton iterative methods in a Banach space setting. We use hypotheses on the second or on the first and mth Frechet-derivative (m≥2 an integer) of the operator involved. Our results allow a wider choice of starting points since our radius of convergence can be larger than the corresponding one given in earlier results using hypotheses on the first-Frechet-derivative only. A numerical example is provided to illustrate this fact. Our results apply when the method is, for example, a difference Newton-like or update-Newton method. Furthermore, our results have direct applications to the solution of autonomous differential equations.

In current study, for the first time, Nonlinear Bending of a skew microplate made of a laminated composite strengthened with graphene nanosheets is investigated. A mixture of mechanical and thermal stresses is applied to the plate, and the reaction is analyzed using the First Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT). Since different percentages of graphene sheets are included in the multilayer structure of the composite, the characteristics of the composite are functionally graded throughout its thickness. Halpin-Tsai models are used to characterize mechanical qualities, whereas Schapery models are used to characterize thermal properties. The microplate's non-linear strain is first calculated by calculating the plate shear deformation and using the Green-Lagrange tensor and von Karman assumptions. Then the elements of the Couple and Cauchy stress tensors using the Modified Coupled Stress Theory (MCST) are derived. Next, using the Hamilton Principle, the microplate's governing equations and associated boundary conditions are calculated. The nonlinear differential equations are linearized by utilizing auxiliary variables in the nonlinear solution by applying the Frechet approach. The linearized equations are rectified via an iterative loop to precisely solve the problem. For this, the Differential Quadrature Method (DQM) is utilized, and the outcomes are shown for the basic support boundary condition. To ascertain the maximum values of microplate deflection for a range of circumstances-such as skew angles, volume fractions, configurations, temperatures, and length scales-a parametric analysis is carried out. To shed light on how the microplate behaves in these various circumstances, the resulting results are analyzed.

Let G = (V, E) be a connected locally finite and weighted graph, ∆_p be the p-th graph Laplacian. Consider the p-th nonlinear equation -∆_pu + h|u|^p-2u = f(x, u) on G, where p > 2, h, f satisfy certain assumptions. Grigor'yan-Lin-Yang [24] proved the existence of the solution to the above nonlinear equation in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ V. In this paper, we show that there exists a strictly positive solution on the infinite set V to the above nonlinear equation by modifying some conditions in [24]. To the m-order differential operator 𝓛_m,p, we also prove the existence of the nontrivial solution to the analogous nonlinear equation.
