Approximate Newton methods and homotopy for stationary operator equations (Q1103334)

The major goal of the paper is to describe a quadratically convergent algorithm for approximation of roots of operator equations in Banach spaces. It is based on a Newton-type iteration procedure and its refinements to the context of Banach spaces due to L. V. Kantorovich and can be viewed as a generalization of the latter. Also, an algorithm of continuation of Euler-predictor-Newton-corrector iterates is given and applications to compact perturbations of identity are discussed.
