How to find g(x) and aux function h(x) when doing fixed point interation?












0












$begingroup$


I'm learning fixed point iteration (first and second form).



My teacher said there are two forms:



g(x) = x - f(x)

g(x) = x - h(x)f(x)


where h(x) is an aux function.



suppose f(x) = x^2 + 2x -3.



Let f(x) = 0.



x^2 + 2x -3 = 0

x^2  = - 2x + 3

x = 3/x -2


So we let g(x) = 3/x -2, for a fixed point, and root, right?



To solve, we iterate and see convergence:



xk+1 = 3/xk -2


and pick an initial xk.



My teacher said that in second form:



from f(x) = x^2 + 2x -3:



g(x) = (x + (x^2 + 2x -3)) / (x^2 - 5)


with the aux function h(x) = -1 / (x^2 - 5)



Where did he get h(x) = -1 / (x^2 - 5) from? And where is 



g(x) = (x + (x^2 + 2x -3)) / (x^2 - 5)


from?



thanks!

          This is most probably not what they said, and it seems that typos due to carelessness are killing you here.



          Actually, to solve $f(x)=0$ with $f(x)=x^2 + 2x -3$, they most probably suggested to solve $g(x)=x$ with $$g(x) = x + frac{x^2 + 2x -3}{x^2 - 5}$$ that is, a function $g$ exactly of the general form $g(x)=x-f(x)h(x)$, for the auxiliary function $$h(x) = -frac1{x^2 - 5}$$ They chose $h$ arbitrarily.




          Supplementary material: This choice of auxiliary function $h$ is not especially suited to this precise function $f$, if you ask me. A better choice would be to get rid of the $x^2$ term in $f(x)$, using $$g_c(x)=x-frac{x^2 + 2x -3}{x+c}$$ for some fixed positive $c$, that is, $g_c(x)=x-f(x)h_c(x)$ with $$h_c(x)=frac1{x+c}$$ Now, a simple computation shows that $$g_c(x)=frac{(c-2)x+3}{x+c}$$ hence the value $c=2$ is interesting, leading to the iteration of the function $$g_2(x)=frac3{x+2}$$
          Note finally that for every initial condition $x_0geqslant0$, the sequence defined recursively by $x_{n+1}=g_2(x_n)$ converges to the positive root $x^*$ of $f$ at a geometric rate $frac13$ (and that $x^*=1$, but this is irrelevant to the construction and to the remark).
