Y is a bounded linear operator with non-closed range and F : X ? X is non-linear, are obtained by a two step Newton type iterative method in Hilbert scales, where the available data is y? in place of actual data y withy-y?? ?. We require only a weaker assumptionF'(x0)x?x-b compared to the usual assumptionF'(x?)x?x-b, where x? is the actual solution of the problem, which is assumed to exist, and x0 is the initial approximation. Two cases, viz-aviz, (i) when F'(x0) is boundedly invertible and (ii) F'(x0) is non-invertible but F is monotone operator, are considered. We derive error bounds under certain general source conditions by choosing the regularization parameter by an a priori manner as well as by using a modified form of the adaptive scheme proposed by Perverzev and Schock . 2014 Rocky Mountain Mathematics Consortium.Article
