  2. Broyden's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broyden's_method

    Newton's method for solving f(x) = 0 uses the Jacobian matrix, J, at every iteration. However, computing this Jacobian can be a difficult and expensive operation; for large problems such as those involving solving the Kohn–Sham equations in quantum mechanics the number of variables can be in the hundreds of thousands. The idea behind Broyden ...

  3. Homotopy analysis method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homotopy_analysis_method

    In the last twenty years, the HAM has been applied to solve a growing number of nonlinear ordinary/partial differential equations in science, finance, and engineering. [8] [9] For example, multiple steady-state resonant waves in deep and finite water depth [10] were found with the wave resonance criterion of arbitrary number of traveling gravity waves; this agreed with Phillips' criterion for ...

  4. Relaxation (iterative method) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relaxation_(iterative_method)

    Relaxation methods were developed for solving large sparse linear systems, which arose as finite-difference discretizations of differential equations. [2] [3] They are also used for the solution of linear equations for linear least-squares problems [4] and also for systems of linear inequalities, such as those arising in linear programming.

  5. Adomian decomposition method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adomian_decomposition_method

    The Adomian decomposition method (ADM) is a semi-analytical method for solving ordinary and partial nonlinear differential equations.The method was developed from the 1970s to the 1990s by George Adomian, chair of the Center for Applied Mathematics at the University of Georgia. [1]

  6. Nonlinear system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_system

    In mathematics and science, a nonlinear system (or a non-linear system) is a system in which the change of the output is not proportional to the change of the input. [1] [2] Nonlinear problems are of interest to engineers, biologists, [3] [4] [5] physicists, [6] [7] mathematicians, and many other scientists since most systems are inherently nonlinear in nature. [8]

  7. Gauss–Newton algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss–Newton_algorithm

    The Gauss–Newton algorithm is used to solve non-linear least squares problems, which is equivalent to minimizing a sum of squared function values. It is an extension of Newton's method for finding a minimum of a non-linear function .

  8. Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenberg–Marquardt...

    This equation is an example of very sensitive initial conditions for the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm. One reason for this sensitivity is the existence of multiple minima — the function cos ⁡ ( β x ) {\displaystyle \cos \left(\beta x\right)} has minima at parameter value β ^ {\displaystyle {\hat {\beta }}} and β ^ + 2 n π ...

  9. Numerical continuation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_continuation

    Numerical continuation is a method of computing approximate solutions of a system of parameterized nonlinear equations, (,) = [1]The parameter is usually a real scalar and the solution is an n-vector.
