Abstract

In this paper, we study the semilocal convergence for a sixth-order variant of the Jarratt method for solving nonlinear equations in Banach spaces. The semilocal convergence of this method is established by using recurrence relations. We derive the recurrence relations for the method, and then prove an existence-uniqueness theorem, along with a priori error bounds which demonstrates the R-order of the method. Finally, we give some numerical applications to demonstrate our approach.
