It is attempted to present an efficient and free derivative class of Steffensen-like methods for solving nonlinear equations. To this end, firstly, we construct an optimal eighth-order three-step uniparameter without memory of iterative methods. Then the self-accelerator parameter is estimated using Newton’s interpolation in such a way that it improves its convergence order from 8 to 12 without any extra function evaluation. Therefore, its efficiency index is increased from 81/4to 121/4which is the main feature of this class. To show applicability of the proposed methods, some numerical illustrations are presented.

It is attempted to present two derivative-free Steffensen-type methods with memory for solving nonlinear equations. By making use of a suitable self-accelerator parameter in the existing optimal fourth- and eighth-order without memory methods, the order of convergence has been increased without any extra function evaluation. Therefore, its efficiency index is also increased, which is the main contribution of this paper. The self-accelerator parameters are estimated using Newton’s interpolation. To show applicability of the proposed methods, some numerical illustrations are presented.

In this paper, two new families of eighth-order iterative methods for solving nonlinear equations is presented. These methods are developed by combining a class of optimal two-point methods and a modified Newton?s method in the third step. Per iteration the presented methods require three evaluations of the function and one evaluation of its first derivative and therefore have the efficiency index equal to 1:682. Kung and Traub conjectured that a multipoint iteration without memory based on n evaluations could achieve optimal convergence order 2n?1. Thus the new families of eighth-order methods agrees with the conjecture of Kung-Traub for the case n = 4. Numerical comparisons are made with several other existing methods to show the performance of the presented methods.

Based on iterative methods without memory of eighth-order convergence proposed by Thukral (2012), some iterative methods with memory and high efficiency index are presented. We show that the order of convergence is increased without any additional function evaluations. Numerical comparisons are made to show the performance of the presented methods.

Based on Ostrowski's method, a new family of eighth-order iterative methods for solving nonlinear equations by using weight function methods is presented. Per iteration the new methods require three evaluations of the function and one evaluation of its first derivative. Therefore, this family of methods has the efficiency index which equals 1.682. Kung and Traub conjectured that a multipoint iteration without memory based on n evaluations could achieve optimal convergence order 2n−1. Thus, we provide a new class which agrees with the conjecture of Kung-Traub for n=4. Numerical comparisons are made to show the performance of the presented methods.

We construct a family of derivative-free optimal iterative methods without memory to approximate a simple zero of a nonlinear function. Error analysis demonstrates that the without-memory class has eighth-order convergence and is extendable to with-memory class. The extension of new family to the with-memory one is also presented which attains the convergence order 15.5156 and a very high efficiency index 15.51561/4≈1.9847. Some particular schemes of the with-memory family are also described. Numerical examples and some dynamical aspects of the new schemes are given to support theoretical results.

The convergence order of numerous iterative methods is obtained using derivatives of a higher order, although these derivatives are not involved in the methods. Therefore, these methods cannot be used to solve equations with functions that do not have such high-order derivatives, since their convergence is not guaranteed. The convergence in this paper is shown, relying only on the first derivative. That is how we expand the applicability of some popular methods.

We present a family of fourteenth-order convergent iterative methods for solving nonlinear equations involving a specific step which when combined with any two-step iterative method raises the convergence order by n+10, if n is the order of convergence of the two-step iterative method. This new class include four evaluations of function and one evaluation of the first derivative per iteration. Therefore, the efficiency index of this family is 141/5 =1.695218203. Several numerical examples are given to show that the new methods of this family are comparable with the existing methods.
