Newton-iterative methods for the solution of systems of nonlinear equations

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7352301
The local rates of convergence of Newton-iterative methods for the solution of systems of nonlinear equations are considered. Under certain conditions on the inner, linear iterative method, Newton-iterative methods can be made to converge quadratically by computing a sufficient number of inner iterates at each step. As an example of this phenomenon, the Newton-Richardson methods which use an inner Richardson-D'Jakonov iteration are examined.
