A Necessary and Sufficient Condition for the Convergence of Certain Iterative Methods for Nonlinear Equations

  • Chapter
Numerical Mathematics Singapore 1988

Abstract

A necessary and sufficient condition is given in order that a certain iterative method converges to a solution of a nonlinear equation. Furthermore, a criterion is obtained for finding existence and nonexistence domains of solutions for the same equation. The obtained results generalize and deepen those of Kantorovich [4], Rheinbt [6] and Dennis [2] for Newton’s and Newton-like methods.
