TL;DR: An extension of the classical Newton's method for solving non-linear equations that will only require function and first derivative evaluations and can be of practical interest.
Abstract: In this work, we introduce an extension of the classical Newton's method for solving non-linear equations. This method is free from second derivative. Similar to Newton's method, the proposed method will only require function and first derivative evaluations. The order of convergence of the introduced method for a simple root is four. Numerical results show that the new method can be of practical interest.

TL;DR: The convergence results show that this modified Newton method converges cubically in the nonsingular case, and linearly with the rate 3/8 under some sufficient conditions when the Jacobian is singular at the root.
Abstract: The paper presents a convergence analysis of a modified Newton method for solving nonlinear systems of equations. The convergence results show that this method converges cubically in the nonsingular case, and linearly with the rate 3/8 under some sufficient conditions when the Jacobian is singular at the root. The convergence theory is used to analyze the convergence behavior when the modified Newton method is applied to a nonsymmetric algebraic Riccati equation arising in transport theory. Numerical experiment confirms the theoretical results.

TL;DR: The Jacobian Computation-free Newton's Method (JCFN) as discussed by the authors is a modification to Newton's method for solving nonlinear equations, which is suitable for small, medium or large scale nonlinear problems with a dense or sparse Jacobian.
Abstract: We propose a modification to Newton's method for solving nonlinear equations, namely a Jacobian Computation-free Newton's Method . Unlike the classical Newton's method, the proposed modification neither requires to compute and store the Jacobian matrix, nor to solve a system of linear equations in each iteration. This is made possible by approximating the Jacobian inverse to a diagonal matrix without computing the Jacobian. The proposed method turns out to be significantly cheaper than Newton's method, much faster than fixed Newton and is suitable for small, medium or large scale nonlinear equations with a dense or sparse Jacobian. After proving the convergence of the reported algorithm, numerical experiments are reported to illustrate the promise of this method.

TL;DR: In this article, a new one-step iterative method for solving nonlinear equations, which inherits the advantages of both Newton's and Steffensen's methods, was proposed by combining it with the regula falsi method.
Abstract: In this paper, we present a new one-step iterative method for solving nonlinear equations, which inherits the advantages of both Newton’s and Steffensen’s methods. Moreover, two two-step methods of second-order are proposed by combining it with the regula falsi method. These new two-step methods present attractive features such as being independent of the initial values in the iterative interval, or being adaptive for the iterative formulas. The convergence of the iterative sequences is deduced. Finally, numerical experiments verify their merits.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a 7th-order convergent Newton-type method for solving nonlinear equations which is free from second derivative, at each iteration it requires three evaluations of the given function and two evaluation of its first derivative.
Abstract: In this paper, we present a seventh-order convergent Newton-type method for solving nonlinear equations which is free from second derivative. At each iteration it requires three evaluations of the given function and two evaluation of its first derivative. Therefore its efficiency index is equal to equation which is better than that of Newton's method √2. Several examples demonstrate that the algorithm is more efficient than classical Newton's method and other existing methods.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method to accelerate the convergence from quadratic to cubic by replacing the parameter p in the iteration of Chen and Li (Appl. Numer. Math. 57:80-88, 2007) by a function p(x) defined suitably.
Abstract: A class of quadratically convergent regula falsi iterative methods for solving nonlinear equations f(x)=0 is proposed in Chen and Li (Appl. Numer. Math. 57:80–88, 2007). It is also shown there that both the sequences of diameters and iterative points sequence converge to zero simultaneously. The aim of this paper is to accelerate further the convergence of these methods from quadratic to cubic. This is done by replacing the parameter p in the iteration of Chen and Li (Appl. Numer. Math. 57:80–88, 2007) by a function p(x) defined suitably. A convergence theorem for establishing the cubic convergence of both the sequence of iterates and the sequence of diameters to the root is given. The numerical examples are worked out to demonstrate that our modified methods are more effective and comparable to those given in Chen and Li (Appl. Numer. Math. 57:80–88, 2007) as well as Newton’s method, Steffensen’s method and regula falsi method.
