Convergence with = and any is called cubic convergence. However, it is not necessary that q {\\displaystyle q} be an integer. For example, the secant method , when converging to a regular, simple root , has an order of the golden ratio φ ≈ 1.618.
Halley's method is a numerical algorithm for solving the nonlinear equation f(x) = 0.In this case, the function f has to be a function of one real variable. The method consists of a sequence of iterations:
Bicubic interpolation can be accomplished using either Lagrange polynomials, cubic splines, or cubic convolution algorithm. In image processing , bicubic interpolation is often chosen over bilinear or nearest-neighbor interpolation in image resampling , when speed is not an issue.
Ridders' method — fits a linear function times an exponential to last two iterates and their midpoint; Halley's method — uses f, f' and f''; achieves the cubic convergence; Householder's method — uses first d derivatives to achieve order d + 1; generalizes Newton's and Halley's method; Methods for polynomials: Aberth method; Bairstow's method
Very rapid convergence is guaranteed and no more than a few iterations are needed in practice to obtain a reasonable approximation. The Rayleigh quotient iteration algorithm converges cubically for Hermitian or symmetric matrices, given an initial vector that is sufficiently close to an eigenvector of the matrix that is being analyzed.
The fixed point iteration x n+1 = cos x n with initial value x 1 = −1.. An attracting fixed point of a function f is a fixed point x fix of f with a neighborhood U of "close enough" points around x fix such that for any value of x in U, the fixed-point iteration sequence , (), (()), ((())), … is contained in U and converges to x fix.
In the mathematical field of numerical analysis, monotone cubic interpolation is a variant of cubic interpolation that preserves monotonicity of the data set being interpolated. Monotonicity is preserved by linear interpolation but not guaranteed by cubic interpolation .
Using the formula relating the general cubic and the associated depressed cubic, this implies that the discriminant of the general cubic can be written as (+). It follows that one of these two discriminants is zero if and only if the other is also zero, and, if the coefficients are real , the two discriminants have the same sign.
