Abstract:

Under the hypothesis that the derivative satisfies some kind of weak Lipschitz condition, a proper condition which makes Newton’s method converge, and an exact estimate for the radius of the ball of the inverse function theorem are given in a Banach space. Also, the relevant results on premises of Kantorovich and Smale types are improved in this paper.
