Higher order methods of the basic family of iterations via \(S\)-iteration scheme with \(s\)-convexity (Q2310425)

Let \(p(z)={\displaystyle \sum_{i=0}^n}a_iz^i\) and \[ D_m(z)=\det \left ( \begin{array}{ccccc} p'(z) & \frac{p''(z)}{2!} & \ldots & \frac{p^{(m-1)}(z)}{(m-1)!} & \frac{p^{(m)}(z)}{m!}\\ p(z) & p'(z) & \ddots & \ddots & \frac{p^{(m-1)}(z)}{(m-1)!} \\ 0 & p(z) &\ddots & \ddots & \vdots \\ \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \ddots & \frac{p''(z)}{2!} \\ 0 & 0 & \ldots & p(z) & p'(z) \end{array} \right ). \] It is well known that typical root finding methods are defined as: \[ B_m(z)=z-p(z)\frac{D_{m-2}(z)}{D_{m-1}(z)}. \] Here the authors propose the following modification of the iteration process by replacing the convex combination with an \(s\)-convex one: \[ \begin{array}{l} z_{n+1}=(1-\alpha )^sB_m(z_m)+\alpha ^sB_m(v_n) \\ v_n=(1-\beta)^sz_n+\beta^sB_m(z_n), \end{array} \] where \(\alpha \in (0,1],\: \beta \in (0,1],\: s \in (0,1]\). The algorithm for the generation of polynomiograph is presented in Section 4. Some graphical and numerical examples are presented in Section 5.
