Abstract
The modified Newton method for multiple roots is organized in an interval method to include simultaneously the distinct roots of a given polynomialP in complex circular interval arithmetic. A condition on the starting disks which ensures convergence is given, and convergence is shown to be quadratic. As a consequence, a simple parallel algorithm to approach all the distinct roots ofP is derived from the modified Newton method.
