1. Solving non-linear equations and systems
Let f be a continuous application of
in itself. The problem we'll be looking at in this paragraph is that of finding x such that f (x ) = 0. We then say that x is a root of f. Another, completely equivalent way of posing the same problem is to find x such that x = F (x ). We then say that x is a fixed point of F. In the following, when we use the letter f (in a theorem or algorithm), this implicitly means that the problem to be solved is put in the form f (x ) = 0. When we use the letter...
