Enclosing roots of polynomial equations and their applications to iterative processes
Journal Title: Surveys in Mathematics and its Applications - Year 2009, Vol 4, Issue 0
Abstract
We introduce a special class of real recurrentpolynomials f<SUB>n</SUB> (n ≥ 1) of degree n,with unique positive roots s<SUB>n</SUB>, which are decreasingas n increases. The first root s<SUB>1</SUB>, as well asthe last one denoted by s<SUB>∞</SUB> are expressed in closedform, and enclose all s<SUB>n</SUB> (n > 1). <BR>This technique is also used to find weaker than before[Kantorovich and Akilov, 1982] sufficient convergence conditions for some popular iterative processes converging to solutions of equations.

A Functional Calculus for Quotient Bounded Operators
If <I>(X, P)</I> is a sequentially locally convex space, then a quotient bounded operator <I>T</I> beloging to <I>Q<SUB>P</SUB></I> is regular (in the sense of Waelbroeck)...
Fractional order differential inclusions on the half-line
We are concerned with the existence of bounded solutions of a boundary value problem on an unbounded domain for fractional order differential inclusions involving the Caputo fractional derivative. Our results are based o...
Optimal Alternative to the Akima's Method of Smooth Interpolation Applied in Diabetology
It is presented a new method of cubic piecewise smooth interpolation applied to experimental data obtained by glycemic profile for diabetics. This method is applied to create a soft useful in clinical diabetology. The me...
Families of quasi-pseudo-metrics generated by probabilistic quasi-pseudo-metric spaces
This paper contains a study of families of quasi-pseudo-metrics (the concept of a quasi-pseudo-metric was introduced by Wilson (1931) , Albert (1941) and Kelly (1963)) generated by probabilistic quasi-pseudo-metric-space...
Fixed point theorems for generalized weakly contractive mappings
In this paper several fixed point theorems for generalized weakly contractive mappings in a metric space setting are proved. The set of generalized weakly contractive mappings considered in this paper contains the family...
