An Efficient Class of Traub-Steffensen-Like Seventh Order Multiple-Root Solvers with Applications
Many higher order multiple-root solvers that require derivative evaluations are available in literature. Contrary to this, higher order multiple-root solvers without derivatives are difficult to obtain, and therefore, such techniques are yet to be achieved. Motivated by this fact, we focus on developing a new family of higher order derivative-free solvers for computing multiple zeros by using a simple approach. The stability of the techniques is checked through complex geometry shown by drawing basins of attraction. Applicability is demonstrated on practical problems, which illustrates the efficient convergence behavior. Moreover, the comparison of numerical results shows that the proposed derivative-free techniques are good competitors of the existing techniques that require derivative evaluations in the iteration.
