Abstract

We extend the applicability of the Gauss---Newton method for solving singular systems of equations under the notions of average Lipschitz---type conditions introduced recently in Li et al. (J Complex 26(3):268---295, 2010). Using our idea of recurrent functions, we provide a tighter local as well as semilocal convergence analysis for the Gauss---Newton method than in Li et al. (J Complex 26(3):268---295, 2010) who recently extended and improved earlier results (Hu et al. J Comput Appl Math 219:110---122, 2008; Li et al. Comput Math Appl 47:1057---1067, 2004; Wang Math Comput 68(255):169---186, 1999). We also note that our results are obtained under weaker or the same hypotheses as in Li et al. (J Complex 26(3):268---295, 2010). Applications to some special cases of Kantorovich---type conditions are also provided in this study.
