Abstract

The famous Newton-Kantorovich hypothesis has been used for a long time as a sufficient condition for the convergence of Newton's method to a solution of an equation. Here we present a ''Kantorovich type'' convergence analysis for the Gauss-Newton's method which improves the result in [W.M. Hauszler, A Kantorovich-type convergence analysis for the Gauss-Newton-method, Numer. Math. 48 (1986) 119-125.] and extends the main theorem in [I.K. Argyros, On the Newton-Kantorovich hypothesis for solving equations, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 169 (2004) 315-332]. Furthermore, the radius of convergence ball is also obtained.
