Abstract
Consider the nonlinear equation H(x):=F(x)+G(x)=0, with F differentiable and G continuous, where F,G,H:X \rightarrow X, X a Banach space.
The Newton method for solving H(x)=0 cannot be applied, and we propose an iterative method for solving the nonlinear equation, by combining the Newton method (for the differentiable part) with the chord/secant method (for the nondifferentiable part): x_{k+1} = \big(F^\prime(x_k)+[x_{k-1},x_k;G]\big)^{-1}(F(x_k)+G(x_k)).
We show that the r-convergence order of the method is the same as of the chord/secant method.
We provide some numerical examples and compare different methods for a nonlinear system in \mathbb{R}^2.
