Local Convergence of an Optimal Eighth Order Method under Weak Conditions

We study the local convergence of an eighth order Newton-like method to approximate a locally-unique solution of a nonlinear equation. Earlier studies, such as Chen et al. (2015) show convergence under hypotheses on the seventh derivative or even higher, although only the first derivative and the di...
