Abstract

The semi-local convergence of a Newton-type method used to solve nonlinear equations in a Banach space is studied. We also give, as two important applications, convergence analyses of two classes of two-point Newton-type methods including a method mentioned in [5] and the midpoint method studied in [1,2,12]. Recently, interest has been shown in such methods [3,4].
