Abstract

Using Carstensen's results from 1991 we state a theorem concerning the localization of polynomial zeros and derive two a posteriori error bound methods with the convergence order 3 and 4. These methods possess useful property of inclusion methods to produce disks containing all simple zeros of a polynomial. We establish computationally verifiable initial conditions that guarantee the convergence of these methods. Some computational aspects and the possibility of implementation on parallel computers are considered, including two numerical examples. A comparison of a posteriori error bound methods with the corresponding circular interval methods, regarding the computational costs and sizes of produced inclusion disks, were given.
