Convergence Analysis and Complex Geometry of an Efficient Derivative-Free Iterative Method
Keyword(s):
To locate a locally-unique solution of a nonlinear equation, the local convergence analysis of a derivative-free fifth order method is studied in Banach space. This approach provides radius of convergence and error bounds under the hypotheses based on the first Fréchet-derivative only. Such estimates are not introduced in the earlier procedures employing Taylor’s expansion of higher derivatives that may not exist or may be expensive to compute. The convergence domain of the method is also shown by a visual approach, namely basins of attraction. Theoretical results are endorsed via numerical experiments that show the cases where earlier results cannot be applicable.
