Abstract

We present a new modified Newton's method with third-order convergence and compare it with the Jarratt method, which is of fourth-order. Based on this new method, we obtain a family of Newton-type methods, which converge cubically. Numerical examples show that the presented method can compete with Newton's method and other known third-order modifications of Newton's method.
