Abstract Many optimal order multiple root techniques, which use derivatives in the algorithm, have been proposed in literature. Many researchers tried to construct an optimal family of derivative-free methods for multiple roots, but they did not get success in this direction. With this as a motivation factor, here, we present a new optimal class of derivative-free methods for obtaining multiple roots of nonlinear functions. This procedure involves Traub–Steffensen iteration in the first step and Traub–Steffensen-like iteration in the second step. Efficacy is checked on a good number of relevant numerical problems that verifies the efficient convergent nature of the new methods. Moreover, we find that the new derivative-free methods are just as competent as the other existing robust methods that use derivatives.

A family of derivative-free methods of seventh-order convergence for solving nonlinear equations is suggested. In the proposed methods, several linear combinations of divided differences are used in order to get a good estimation of the derivative of the given function at the different steps of the iteration. The efficiency indices of the members of this family are equal to 1.6266. Also, numerical examples are used to show the performance of the presented methods, on smooth and nonsmooth equations, and to compare with other derivative-free methods, including some optimal fourth-order ones, in the sense of Kung-Traub’s conjecture.

In this paper, a family of derivative-free methods of cubic convergence for solving nonlinear equations is suggested. In the proposed methods, several linear combinations of divided differences are used in order to get a good estimation of the derivative of the given function at the different steps of the iteration. The efficiency indices of the members of this family are equal to 1.442. The convergence and error analysis are given. Also, numerical examples are used to show the performance of the presented methods and to compare with other derivative-free methods. And, were applied these methods on smooth and nonsmooth equations.
