Abstract

This manuscript proposed high-precision methods for obtaining solutions for nonlinear models. The method uses the Newton method as its predictor and an iterative function that involves the perturbed Newton method with the quotient of two power series as the corrector function. The theoretical analysis of convergence indicates that the methods class is of convergence order four, requiring three functions evaluation per cycle. The computation performance comparison with some existing methods shows that the developed methods class has perfect precision.
