Inc.A method for the numerical solution of systems of nonlinear algebraic andlor transcendental equations in R" is presented. This method reduces the dimensionality of the system in such a way that it can lead to an iterative approximate formula for the computation of n -1 components of the solution. while the remaining component of the solution is evaluated separately using the final approximations of the other components. This In -1)-dimensional iterative formula generates a sequence of points in Rn-' which converges quadratically to n -1 components of the solution. Moreover, it does not require a good initial guess for one component of the solution and it does not directly perform function evaluations, thus it can be applied to problems with imprecise function values. A proof of convergence is given and numerical applications are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
