Local convergence for multi-point-parametric Chebyshev–Halley-type methods of high convergence order

Ball Convergence for Steffensen-type Fourth-order Methods

We present a local convergence analysis for a family of Steffensen-type fourth-order methods in order to approximate a solution of a nonlinear equation. We use hypotheses up to the first derivative in contrast to earlier studies such as [1], [5]-[28] using hypotheses up to the fifth derivative. This way the applicability of these methods is extended under weaker hypotheses. Moreover the radius ...

New family of Two-Parameters Iterative Methods for Non-Linear Equations with Fourth-Order Convergence

Local Convergence of an Efficient High Convergence Order Method Using Hypothesis Only on the First Derivative

We present a local convergence analysis of an eighth order three step method in order to approximate a locally unique solution of nonlinear equation in a Banach space setting. In an earlier study by Sharma and Arora (2015), the order of convergence was shown using Taylor series expansions and hypotheses up to the fourth order derivative or even higher of the function involved which restrict the...

New iterative methods with seventh-order convergence for solving nonlinear equations

In this paper, seventh-order iterative methods for the solution ofnonlinear equations are presented. The new iterative methods are developed byusing weight function method and using an approximation for the last derivative,which reduces the required number of functional evaluations per step. Severalexamples are given to illustrate the eciency and the performance of the newiterative methods.
