Solving nonlinear problems by Ostrowski Chun type parametric families

In this paper, by using a generalization of Ostrowski' and Chun's methods two bi-parametric families of predictor-corrector iterative schemes, with order of convergence four for solving system of nonlinear equations, are presented. The predictor of the first family is Newton's method, and the predictor of the second one is Steffensen's scheme. One of them is extended to the multidimensional case. Some numerical tests are performed to compare proposed methods with existing ones and to confirm the theoretical results. We check the obtained results by solving the molecular interaction problem.This research was supported by Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnologia MTM2011-28636-C02-02 and FONDOCYT, Republica Dominicana.Cordero Barbero, A.; Maimo, J.; Torregrosa Sánchez, JR.; Vassileva, M.

King-Type Derivative-Free Iterative Families: Real and Memory Dynamics

[EN] A biparametric family of derivative-free optimal iterative methods of order four, for solving nonlinear equations, is presented. From the error equation of this class, different families of iterative schemes with memory can be designed increasing the order of convergence up to six. The real stability analysis of the biparametric family without memory is made on quadratic polynomials, finding areas in the parametric plane with good performance.Moreover, in order to study the real behavior of the parametric class with memory, we associate it with a discrete multidimensional dynamical system. By analyzing the fixed and critical points of its vectorial rational function, we can select those methods with best stability properties.This research was partially supported by Ministerio de Economia y Competitividad under Grants MTM2014-52016-C2-2-P, Generalitat Valenciana PROMETEO/2016/089, and FONDOCYT 2014-1C1-088 Republica Dominicana.Chicharro López, FI.; Cordero Barbero, A.; Torregrosa Sánchez, JR.; Vassileva, M.

Design of high-order iterative methods for nonlinear systems by using weight-function procedure

We present two classes of iterative methods whose orders of convergence are four and five, respectively, for solving systems of nonlinear equations, by using the technique of weight functions in each step. Moreover, we show an extension to higher order, adding only one functional evaluation of the vectorial nonlinear function. We perform numerical tests to compare the proposed methods with other schemes in the literature and test their effectiveness on specific nonlinear problems. Moreover, some real basins of attraction are analyzed in order to check the relation between the order of convergence and the set of convergent starting points.Artidiello Moreno, SDJ.; Cordero Barbero, A.; Torregrosa Sánchez, JR.; Vassileva, M.
