Abstract

We provide a semilocal as well as a local convergence analysis of Newton’s method using the gamma condition [1], [10], [11]. Using more precise majorizing sequences than before [4], [8]—[11] and under at least as weak hypotheses, we provide in the semilocal case: finer error bounds on the distances involved and an at least as precise information on the location of the solution; in the local case: a larger radius of convergence.
