Convergence and Applications of Newton-Type Iterations

This monograph is devoted to a comprehensive treatment of iterative methods for solving nonlinear equations with particular emphasis on semilocal convergence analysis. Theoretical results are applied to engineering, dynamic economic systems, input-output systems, nonlinear and linear differential equations, and optimization problems. Accompanied by many exercises, some with solutions, the book may be used as a supplementary text in the classroom for seminars in advanced numerical and functional analysis or computer science.
