Abstract

In this work, we extract some new and efficient two-point methods with memory from their corresponding optimal methods without memory, to estimate simple roots of a given nonlinear equation. Applying two accelerator parameters in each iteration, we try to increase the convergence order from four to seven without any new functional evaluation. To this end, firstly we modify three optimal methods without memory in such a way that we could generate methods with memory as efficient as possible. Then, convergence analysis is put forward. Finally, the applicability of the developed methods on some numerical examples is examined and illustrated by means of dynamical tools, both in smooth and in nonsmooth functions.
