Convergence of Directional Methods under mild differentiability and applications

摘要

A semilocal convergence analysis for Directional Methods under mild differentiability conditions is provided in this study. Using our idea of recurrent functions, we provide sufficient convergence conditions as well as the corresponding errors bounds. The results are extended to hold in a Hilbert space setting and a favorable comparison is provided with earlier works [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [20]. Numerical examples are also provided in this study.
