A number of optimal order multiple root techniques that require derivative evaluations in the formulas have been proposed in literature. However, derivative-free optimal techniques for multiple roots are seldom obtained. By considering this factor as motivational, here we present a class of optimal fourth order methods for computing multiple roots without using derivatives in the iteration. The iterative formula consists of two steps in which the first step is a well-known Traub–Steffensen scheme whereas second step is a Traub–Steffensen-like scheme. The Methodology is based on two steps of which the first is Traub–Steffensen iteration and the second is Traub–Steffensen-like iteration. Effectiveness is validated on different problems that shows the robust convergent behavior of the proposed methods. It has been proven that the new derivative-free methods are good competitors to their existing counterparts that need derivative information.

Abstract Many optimal order multiple root techniques, which use derivatives in the algorithm, have been proposed in literature. Many researchers tried to construct an optimal family of derivative-free methods for multiple roots, but they did not get success in this direction. With this as a motivation factor, here, we present a new optimal class of derivative-free methods for obtaining multiple roots of nonlinear functions. This procedure involves Traub–Steffensen iteration in the first step and Traub–Steffensen-like iteration in the second step. Efficacy is checked on a good number of relevant numerical problems that verifies the efficient convergent nature of the new methods. Moreover, we find that the new derivative-free methods are just as competent as the other existing robust methods that use derivatives.

Many optimal order multiple root techniques involving derivatives have been proposed in literature. On the contrary, optimal order multiple root techniques without derivatives are almost nonexistent. With this as a motivational factor, here we develop a family of optimal fourth-order derivative-free iterative schemes for computing multiple roots. The procedure is based on two steps of which the first is Traub–Steffensen iteration and second is Traub–Steffensen-like iteration. Theoretical results proved for particular cases of the family are symmetric to each other. This feature leads us to prove the general result that shows the fourth-order convergence. Efficacy is demonstrated on different test problems that verifies the efficient convergent nature of the new methods. Moreover, the comparison of performance has proven the presented derivative-free techniques as good competitors to the existing optimal fourth-order methods that use derivatives.

Many optimal order multiple root techniques, which use derivatives in the algorithm, have been proposed in literature. But contrarily, derivative free optimal order techniques for multiple root are almost nonexistent. By this as an inspirational factor, here we present a family of optimal fourth order derivative-free techniques for computing multiple roots of nonlinear equations. At the beginning the convergence analysis is executed for particular values of multiplicity afterwards it concludes in general form. Behl et. al derivative-free method is seen as special case of the family. Moreover, the applicability and comparison is demonstrated on different nonlinear problems that certifies the efficient convergent nature of the new methods. Finally, we conclude that our new methods consume the lowest CPU time as compared to the existing ones. This illuminates the theoretical outcomes to a great extent of this study.

A family of derivative-free methods of seventh-order convergence for solving nonlinear equations is suggested. In the proposed methods, several linear combinations of divided differences are used in order to get a good estimation of the derivative of the given function at the different steps of the iteration. The efficiency indices of the members of this family are equal to 1.6266. Also, numerical examples are used to show the performance of the presented methods, on smooth and nonsmooth equations, and to compare with other derivative-free methods, including some optimal fourth-order ones, in the sense of Kung-Traub’s conjecture.

A plethora of higher order iterative methods, involving derivatives in algorithms, are available in the literature for finding multiple roots. Contrary to this fact, the higher order methods without derivatives in the iteration are difficult to construct, and hence, such methods are almost non-existent. This motivated us to explore a derivative-free iterative scheme with optimal fourth order convergence. The applicability of the new scheme is shown by testing on different functions, which illustrates the excellent convergence. Moreover, the comparison of the performance shows that the new technique is a good competitor to existing optimal fourth order Newton-like techniques.

There is no doubt that the fourth-order King’s family is one of the important ones among its counterparts. However, it has two major problems: the first one is the calculation of the first-order derivative; secondly, it has a linear order of convergence in the case of multiple roots. In order to improve these complications, we suggested a new King’s family of iterative methods. The main features of our scheme are the optimal convergence order, being free from derivatives, and working for multiple roots (m≥2). In addition, we proposed a main theorem that illustrated the fourth order of convergence. It also satisfied the optimal Kung–Traub conjecture of iterative methods without memory. We compared our scheme with the latest iterative methods of the same order of convergence on several real-life problems. In accordance with the computational results, we concluded that our method showed superior behavior compared to the existing methods.

We present new modifications to Newton's method for solving nonlinear equations. The analysis of convergence shows that these methods have fourth-order convergence. Each of the three methods uses three functional evaluations. Thus, according to Kung-Traub's conjecture, these are optimal methods. With the previous ideas, we extend the analysis to functions with multiple roots. Several numerical examples are given to illustrate that the presented methods have better performance compared with Newton's classical method and other methods of fourth-order convergence recently published.

We develop a family of fourth-order iterative methods using the weighted harmonic mean of two derivative functions to compute approximate multiple roots of nonlinear equations. They are proved to be optimally convergent in the sense of Kung-Traub’s optimal order. Numerical experiments for various test equations confirm well the validity of convergence and asymptotic error constants for the developed methods.

We construct a biparametric family of fourth-order iterative methods to compute multiple roots of nonlinear equations. This method is verified to be optimally convergent. Various nonlinear equations confirm our proposed method with order of convergence of four and show that the computed asymptotic error constant agrees with the theoretical one.

In this paper, we introduce a new family of efficient and optimal iterative methods for finding multiple roots of nonlinear equations with known multiplicity ( m ≥ 1 ) . We use the weight function approach involving one and two parameters to develop the new family. A comprehensive convergence analysis is studied to demonstrate the optimal eighth-order convergence of the suggested scheme. Finally, numerical and dynamical tests are presented, which validates the theoretical results formulated in this paper and illustrates that the suggested family is efficient among the domain of multiple root finding methods.
