Abstract: We prove the quasi-optimal convergence of a standard adaptive finite element method (AFEM) for nonlinear elliptic second-order equations of monotone type. The adaptive algorithm is based on residual-type a posteriori error estimators and D"orfler's strategy is assumed for marking. We first prove a contraction property for a suitable definition of total error, which is equivalent to the total error as defined by Casc'on et al. (in SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 46 (2008), 2524--2550), and implies linear convergence of the algorithm. Secondly, we use this contraction to derive the optimal cardinality of the AFEM.
