Third-order derivative-free methods in Banach spaces for nonlinear ill-posed equations

Abstract

We develop three third order derivative-free iterative methods to solve the nonlinear ill-posed oprerator equation F(x) = f approximately. The methods involve two steps and are free of derivatives. Convergence analysis shows that these methods converge cubically. The adaptive scheme introduced in Pereverzyev and Schock (SIAM J Numer Anal 43(5):2060–2076, 2005) has been employed to choose regularization parameter. These methods are applied to the inverse gravimetry problem to validate our developed results. © 2019, Korean Society for Computational and Applied Mathematics.
