This article deals with the equation \(x = x_0 + Tx^k\) in a Banach space \(E\), where \(T\) is a continuous \(k\)-linear operator in \(E\) satisfying the inequalities \(\| T(x_1,\dots,x_k)\| \leq c_0\| x_1\| \dots \| x_k\| \) for all \(x, \dots , x_k\). The main result is the unique solvability of this equation for all \(x_0\), \(\| x_0\| \leq (k - 1)k^{-1}(c_0k)^{\frac1{k-1}}\), and the convergence of Picard's approximations to this solution. The convergence of Newton's approximations is also studied. Some refinements of these statements are given in the case when the operator \(T\) satisfies the inequalities \(\| T(x_1,\dots,x_k)\| _F \leq c_1 \min_{1 \leq i \leq k} \left(\| x_i\| _F \prod_{j \neq i} \| x_j\| \right)\); here, \(F\) is a Banach space continuously embedded in \(E\).
