Abstract

Using a method for accelerating convergence and Weierstrass' correction, a cubically convergent method without derivatives for the simultaneous determination of polynomial zeros is derived. The proposed method possesses approximately the structure of Halley's method. Using the Gauss-Seidel approach, the single-step method is outlined. Convergence analysis and computational aspects are reported.
