Type, fixed point iteration, and mean value theorems

Pages 308-312 | Published online: 11 Nov 2010
 

Abstract

A function is said to be of ‘type k’ near zero if it behaves roughly like xk there. This notion is defined precisely, then it is used to obtain modifications of the Newton and Halley iteration schemes. It also gives an idea of the location of the constants c which arise in various mean value theorems.
