An Extension on the Local Convergence for the Multi-Step Seventh Order Method with <i>ψ</i>-Continuity Condition in the Banach Spaces
Abstract
The local convergence analysis of the multi-step seventh order method to solve nonlinear equations is presented in this paper. The point of this paper is that our proposed study requires a weak hypothesis where the Fréchet derivative of the nonlinear operator satisfies the ψ-continuity condition, which thereby extends the applicability of the method when both Lipschitz and Hölder conditions fail. The convergence in this study is considered under the hypotheses on the first-order derivative without involving derivatives of the higher-order. To find a subset of the original convergence domain, a strategy is devised here. As a result, the new Lipschitz constants are at least as tight as the old ones, allowing for a more precise convergence analysis in the local convergence case. Some concrete numerical examples showing the performance of the method over some existing schemes are presented in this article.
