Optimal Order of One-Point and Multipoint Iteration

TL;DR: It is proved that the optimal order of one general class of multipoint iterations is 2 and that an upper bound on the order of a multipoint iteration based on n evaluations of ƒ (no derivatives) is 2.

Basin attractors for various methods

TL;DR: It can be seen that not all higher order methods were created equal, namely the basin of attraction of the method and its dependence on the order.

Three-step iterative methods with eighth-order convergence for solving nonlinear equations

TL;DR: In this paper, a family of 8-order iterative methods for nonlinear equations is presented, based on King's fourth-order methods and the family of 6-order iteration methods developed by Chun et al. Each iteration requires three evaluations of the function and one derivative.
