We present a semi-local convergence analysis of Newton’s method in order to approximate a locally unique solution of a nonlinear equation in a Banach space setting. Using center-Lipschitz condition on the first and the second Fréchet derivatives, we provide under the same computational cost a new and more precise convergence analysis than in earlier studies by Huang [A note of Kantorovich theorem for Newton iteration, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 47 (1993) 211–217] and Gutiérrez [A new semilocal convergence theorem for Newton’s method, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 79 (1997) 131–145]. Numerical examples where the old convergence criteria cannot apply to solve nonlinear equations but the new convergence criteria are satisfied are also presented at the concluding section of this paper.

We present a semilocal convergence analysis of Newton's method for sections on Riemannian manifolds. Using the notion of a 2-piece L-average Lipschitz condition introduced in [C. Li and J. H. Wang, Newton's method for sections on Riemannian manifolds: Generalized covariant α-theory, J. Complexity24 (2008) 423–451] in combination with the weaker center 2-piece L1-average Lipschitz condition given by us in this paper, we provide a tighter convergence analysis than the one given in [C. Li and J. H. Wang, Newton's method for sections on Riemannian manifolds: Generalized covariant α-theory, J. Complexity24 (2008) 423–451] which in turn has improved the works in earlier studies such as [R. L. Adler, J. P. Dedieu, J. Y. Margulies, M. Martens and M. Shub, Newton's method on Riemannian manifolds and a geometric model for the human spine, IMA J. Numer. Anal.22 (2002) 359–390; F. Alvarez, J. Bolte and J. Munier, A unifying local convergence result for Newton's method in Riemannian manifolds, Found. Comput. Math.8 (2008) 197–226; J. P. Dedieu, P. Priouret and G. Malajovich, Newton's method on Riemannian manifolds: Covariant α-theory, IMA J. Numer. Anal.23 (2003) 395–419].

We present a new semilocal convergence analysis of Newton's method on Riemannian manifolds with values in a cone in order to solve the inclusion problem. Using more precise majorizing sequences than in earlier studies such as [J. H. Wang, S. Huang and C. Li, Extended Newton's method for mappings on Riemannian manifolds with values in a cone, Taiwanese J. Math.13(2B) (2009) 633–656] and the concept of L-average Lipschitz condition we provide: weaker sufficient convergence conditions; tighter error analysis on the distances involved and an at least as precise information on the solutions. These advantages are obtained using the same parameters and functions. Applications include the celebrated Newton–Kantorovich theorem.
