Fixed Point Iterations
Objective
 | Contraction mapping and Function iteration method
|
Vocabulary
Functional iteration, Seidel method
Concepts
 | Brouwer fixed point theorem (Review)
 | Uniqueness of fixed point and derivative bounds
 | Functional iteration and contraction mapping
 | Theoretical and Computable (though often pessimistic) error bounds
| | | |
Method properties:
Extra:
 | Choice of initial guess not obvious
 | Often used as a brute force approach or method of last resort even if
derivative bounds are not satisfied
