A discrete scheme of Landweber iteration for solving nonlinear ill-posed problems (Q5927560)

The paper deals with an ill-posed operator equation \(F(x)=y\) where \(F\) is a continuous and Fréchet differentiable operator in a Hilbert space \(X\) and \(y\) is noisy. Assume that \(\{ X_n\}\) is a dense sequence of finite-dimensional subspaces of \(X\) with \(X_n \subset X_{n+1}\). Let \(P_n\) be the ortho-projector from \(X\) onto \(X_n\) and \(y_{\delta}\) an available approximation of \(y\) satisfying \(\|y_{\delta}-y \|\leq \delta\). The authors study the iterative process \[ x_0^{\delta,n}=P_n x_0;\;x_k^{\delta,n}=x_{k-1}^{\delta,n}-P_n F'(x_{k-1}^{\delta,n})^* (F(x_{k-1}^{\delta,n})-y_{\delta}),\quad k=1, 2, \dots k(\delta,n). \] Under the regularity assumption \(\|F(x)-F(z)-F'(z)(x-z) \|\leq \eta \|F(x)-F(z) \|(0<\eta <1/2)\) the stopping rule \(k=k(\delta,n)\) is derived such that the approximation \(x_{k(\delta,n)}^{\delta,n}\) converges to a solution \(x^*\) of the original equation as \(\delta \to 0, n \to \infty\). With the use of the source condition \(x_0-x^* =(F'(x^*)^* F'(x^*))^p \omega; p>0, \omega \in X\) and additional structural assumptions on \(F\) the authors establish rate of convergence estimates in terms of \(\delta, \|(I-P_n)x_0 \|\) and \(\gamma_n\), where \(\|F'(x)(I-P_n) \|\leq C\gamma_n\).
