ON THE CONVERGENCE OF NEWTON'S METHOD AND LOCALLY HOLDERIAN INVERSES OF OPERATORS

  • Published : 2009.02.28

Abstract

A semilocal convergence analysis is provided for Newton's method in a Banach space. The inverses of the operators involved are only locally $H{\ddot{o}}lderian$. We make use of a point-based approximation and center-$H{\ddot{o}}lderian$ hypotheses for the inverses of the operators involved. Such an approach can be used to approximate solutions of equations involving nonsmooth operators.
