Some Reflections on the Continuous Newton-Method for Rational Functions

  • Chapter
Book cover Konstruktive Methoden der finiten nichtlinearen Optimierung

Abstract

We consider the desingularized continuous Newton-method for rational functions of one complex variable. Structural stability aspects are discussed. Special attention is given to rational functions with one (simple) pole. For these functions a full classification — up to topological equivalence — is obtained.
