✦ Synopsis

We suggest an improvement to the iteration of Cauchy's method viewed as a generalization of possible improvements to Newton's method. Two equivalent derivations of Cauchy's method are presented involving similar techniques to ones that have been proved successfully for Newton's method. First, an adaptation of an auxiliary function that gives the new iteration function, and secondly, a symbolic computation that allows us to find the best coefficients with regard to the local order of convergence. The theoretical and computational order of convergence, for all functions tested, was five or more.

In this paper, we present some variants of Cauchy's method for solving non-linear equations. Analysis of convergence shows that the methods have fourth-order convergence. Per iteration the new methods cost almost the same as Cauchy's method. Numerical results show that the methods can compete with C

In this paper, we present a class of new variants of Ostrowski's method with order of convergence seven. Per iteration the new methods require three evaluations of the function and one evaluation of its first derivative and therefore this class of methods has the efficiency index equal to 1.627. Num

In this work, a class of iterative Newton's methods, known as power mean Newton's methods, is proposed. Some known results can be regarded as particular cases. It is shown that the order of convergence of the proposed methods is 3. Numerical results are given to verify the theory and demonstrate the

In this paper, we derive a new family of eighth-order methods for obtaining simple roots of nonlinear equations by using the weight function method. Each iteration of these methods requires three evaluations of the function and one evaluation of its first derivative, so that their efficiency indices
