Efficient Methods for Finding Zeros of Functions Whose Derivatives are Easy to Evaluate.
Abstract
Some multipoint iterative methods without memory for approximating simple zeros of functions of one variable are described. Explicit, nonlinear, Runge-Kutta methods for the solution of a special class of ordinary differential equations may be derived from the methods for finding zeros of functions. Numerical examples and some FORTRAN subroutines are given.
