Existence and Uniqueness Theorems for a Three-Step Newton-Type Method under $L$-Average Conditions

Abstract

In this paper, we study the local convergence of a three-step Newton-type method for solving nonlinear equations in Banach spaces under weaker hypothesis. More precisely, we derive the existence and uniqueness theorems, when the first-order derivative of nonlinear operator satisfies the $L$-average conditions instead of the usual Lipschitz condition, which have been discussed in the earlier study.
