Quasi-Newton Methods, Motivation and Theory

TL;DR: In this paper, an attempt to motivate and justify quasi-Newton methods as useful modifications of Newton''s method for general and gradient nonlinear systems of equations is made, and references are given to ample numerical justification; here we give an overview of many of the important theoretical results.
