Abstract
In this paper, we provide a semilocal convergence analysis for a family of Newton-like methods, which contains the best-known third-order iterative methods for solving a nonlinear equation F (x) = 0 in Banach spaces. It is assumed that the operator F is twice Fréchet differentiable and F″ satisfies a Lipschitz type condition but it is unbounded. By using majorant sequences, we provide sufficient convergence conditions to obtain cubic semilocal convergence. Results on existence and uniqueness of solutions, and error estimates are also given. Finally, a numerical example is provided. © 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
