Abstract

We provide new semilocal convergence results for the Halley method in order to approximate a locally unique solution of a nonlinear equation in a Banach space setting. Our sufficient convergence conditions can be weaker than before, where as the error bounds on the distances involved are finer. Our first approach uses a Kantorovich-type analysis. The second approach uses our new idea of recurrent functions. A comparison between the two approaches is also given.

A numerical example further validating the theoretical results is also provided in this study.
