Newton-Type Iteration for Tikhonov Regularization of Nonlinear Ill-Posed Problems

Recently in the work of George, 2010, we considered a modified Gauss-Newton method for approximate solution of a nonlinear ill-posed operator equationF(x)=y, whereF:D(F)⊆X→Yis a nonlinear operator between the Hilbert spacesXandY. The analysis in George, 2010 was carried out using a majorizing sequence. In this paper, we consider also the modified Gauss-Newton method, but the convergence analysis and the error estimate are obtained by analyzing the odd and even terms of the sequence separately. We use the adaptive method in the work of Pereverzev and Schock, 2005 for choosing the regularization parameter. The optimality of this method is proved under a general source condition. A numerical example of nonlinear integral equation shows the performance of this procedure.

A Quadratic Convergence Yielding Iterative Method for Nonlinear Ill-posed Operator Equations

In this paper, we consider an iterative method for the approximate solution of the nonlinear ill-posed operator equation Tx = y. The iteration procedure converges quadratically to the unique solution of the equation for the regularized approximation. It is known that (Tautanhahn (2002)) this solution converges to the solution of the given ill-posed operator equation. The convergence analysis and the stopping rule are based on a suitably constructed majorizing sequence. We show that the adaptive scheme considered by Perverzev and Schock (2005) for choosing the regularization parameter can be effectively used here for obtaining an optimal order error estimate.
