Convergence of Newton's method for solving a nonlinear matrix equation (Q2795320)

The authors consider the use of Newton's method for solving nonlinear matrix equations \(X^p+AX^qB+CXD+E=0\), where \(p\) and \(q\) are positive integers, \(A\), \(B\), \(E\) are \(n\times n\) nonnegative matrices and \(C\), \(D\) are arbitrary \(n\times n\) real matrices. They provide sufficient conditions for the existence of the elementwise minimal nonnegative solution and consider the monotone convergence of the method. The efficiency of the method is also demonstrated by a number of numerical examples.
