Abstract

In this paper, we present a family of optimal, in the sense of Kung---Traub's conjecture, iterative methods for solving nonlinear equations with eighth-order convergence. Our methods are based on Chun's fourth-order method. We use the Ostrowski's efficiency index and several numerical tests in order to compare the new methods with other known eighth-order ones. We also extend this comparison to the dynamical study of the different methods.
