A family of iterative methods for solving systems of nonlinear equations having unknown multiplicity (Q1736754)

Summary: The singularity of Jacobian happens when we are looking for a root, with multiplicity greater than one, of a system of nonlinear equations. The purpose of this article is two-fold. Firstly, we will present a modification of an existing method that computes roots with known multiplicities. Secondly, will propose the generalization of a family of methods for solving nonlinear equations with unknown multiplicities, to the system of nonlinear equations. The inclusion of a nonzero multi-variable auxiliary function is the key idea. Different choices of the auxiliary function give different families of the iterative method to find roots with unknown multiplicities. Few illustrative numerical experiments and a critical discussion end the paper.
