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.

We suggest a derivative-free optimal method of second order which is a new version of a modification of Newton’s method for achieving the multiple zeros of nonlinear single variable functions. Iterative methods without derivatives for multiple zeros are not easy to obtain, and hence such methods are rare in literature. Inspired by this fact, we worked on a family of optimal second order derivative-free methods for multiple zeros that require only two function evaluations per iteration. The stability of the methods was validated through complex geometry by drawing basins of attraction. Moreover, applicability of the methods is demonstrated herein on different functions. The study of numerical results shows that the new derivative-free methods are good alternatives to the existing optimal second-order techniques that require derivative calculations.

Higher-order derivatives are used to determine the convergence order of iterative methods. However, such derivatives are not present in the formulas. Therefore, the assumptions on the higher-order derivatives of the function restrict the applicability of methods. Our convergence analysis of an eighth-order method uses only the derivative of order one. The convergence results so obtained are applied to some real problems, which arise in science and engineering. Finally, stability of the method is checked through complex geometry shown by drawing basins of attraction of the solutions.

In this study, we present a new higher-order scheme without memory for simple zeros which has two major advantages. The first one is that each member of our scheme is derivative free and the second one is that the present scheme is capable of producing many new optimal family of eighth-order methods from every 4-order optimal derivative free scheme (available in the literature) whose first substep employs a Steffensen or a Steffensen-like method. In addition, the theoretical and computational properties of the present scheme are fully investigated along with the main theorem, which demonstrates the convergence order and asymptotic error constant. Moreover, the effectiveness of our scheme is tested on several real-life problems like Van der Waal’s, fractional transformation in a chemical reactor, chemical engineering, adiabatic flame temperature, etc. In comparison with the existing robust techniques, the iterative methods in the new family perform better in the considered test examples. The study of dynamics on the proposed iterative methods also confirms this fact via basins of attraction applied to a number of test functions.

The dynamical behavior of different Steffensen-type methods is analyzed. We check the chaotic behaviors alongside the convergence radii (understood as the wideness of the basin of attraction) needed by Steffensen-type methods, that is, derivative-free iteration functions, to converge to a root and compare the results using different numerical tests. We will conclude that the convergence radii (and the stability) of Steffensen-type methods are improved by increasing the convergence order. The computer programming package MATHEMATICAprovides a powerful but easy environment for all aspects of numerics. This paper puts on show one of the application of this computer algebra system in finding fixed points of iteration functions.

In this work, we construct a family of seventh order iterative methods for finding multiple roots of a nonlinear function. The scheme consists of three steps, of which the first is Newton’s step and last two are the weighted-Newton steps. Hence, the name of the scheme is ‘weighted-Newton methods’. Theoretical results are studied exhaustively along with the main theorem describing convergence analysis. Stability and convergence domain of the proposed class are also demonstrated by means of using a graphical technique, namely, basins of attraction. Boundaries of these basins are fractal like shapes through which basins are symmetric. Efficacy is demonstrated through numerical experimentation on variety of different functions that illustrates good convergence behavior. Moreover, the theoretical result concerning computational efficiency is verified by computing the elapsed CPU time. The overall comparison of numerical results including accuracy and CPU-time shows that the new methods are strong competitors for the existing methods.

Numerous higher-order methods with derivative evaluations are accessible in the literature for computing multiple zeros. However, higher-order methods without derivatives are very rare for multiple zeros. Encouraged by this fact, we present a family of third-order derivative-free iterative methods for multiple zeros that require only evaluations of three functions per iteration. Convergence of the proposed class is demonstrated by means of using a graphical tool, namely basins of attraction. Applicability of the methods is demonstrated through numerical experimentation on different functions that illustrates the efficient behavior. Comparison of numerical results shows that the presented iterative methods are good competitors to the existing techniques.
