%0 Journal Article %T On the Gauss-Newton method for solving equations %A Argyros %A Ioaniss K %A Hitlout %A Sa£¿d %J Proyecciones (Antofagasta) %D 2012 %I Universidad Cat¨®lica del Norte %R 10.4067/S0716-09172012000100002 %X we use a combination of the center-lipschitz condition with the lipschitz condition condition on the frechet-derivative of the operator involved to provide a semilocal convergence analysis of the gauss-newton method to a solution of an equation. using more precise estimates on the distances involved, under weaker hypotheses, and under the same computational cost, we provide an analysis of the gauss- newton method with the following advantages over the corresponding results in [8]: larger convergence domain; finer error estimates on the distances involved, and an at least as precise information on the location ofthe solution %K gauss-newton method %K semilocal convergence %K frechet- derivative %K lipschitz/center-lipschitz condition %K convergence domain. %U http://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_abstract&pid=S0716-09172012000100002&lng=en&nrm=iso&tlng=en
