A Urabe type convergence theorem for a constructive simplified Newton method in infinite dimensional spaces

A constructive simplified Newton method is presented for calculating solutions of infinite dimensional nonlinear equations, which uses a projection scheme from an infinite dimensional space to finite dimensional subspaces. A convergence theorem of the method is shown based on Urabe's theorem. For a class of successive approximation methods containing an infinite dimensional homotopy method, a stopping criterion is shown using the convergence theorem. The authors show that under a certain condition the stopping criterion is satisfied in finite cycles of iteration.<>
