Abstract
Mathematics plays an important role in our everyday life. Fixed point iteration theory is a
fascinating subject, with an enormous number of applications in various fields of mathematics.
Maybe due to this transversal character, I have always experienced some diÿculties to find a
book (unless expressly devoted to fixed points) treating the argument in a unitary fashion. In
most cases, It is noticed that fixed points pop up when they are needed. On the contrary, It is
believed that they should deserve a relevant place in any general textbook, and particularly, in a
functional analysis textbook. This is mainly the reason that made me decide to write down these
notes. Ii is tried to collect most of the significant results of the field, and then to present various
related applications.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODICTION
Fixed point iteration method in numerical analaysis is used to find an approximate solution to
algebric and transcendential equations.Sometimes it becomes veery tedious to find solutions to
qubic quadratic and trancedential equations then we can apply specific numerical methods to
find the solution.One among those methods is the fixed iteration method .The fixed point
iteration method uses the concept of a fixed point in a repeated manner to compute the solution
of the given equation.
a ) xe x−1=0 ,
b ) 2 sin x−x=0
These equations can not be solved directly.
We need numerical methods to compute the approximate solutions.
• First we write f (x) = 0 in the form x = F (x).
• Note that F (x) is not unique. For instance, see the following.
Example 1

Example 2
• Find the first approximate root of the equation 2 x3 −2 x −5 up to four decimal places
• Solution
• Given

• f ( x )=2 x −2 x−5
• As per the algorithm we find the value of x 0 for which we have to find a and b such that
f(a)¿ 0 and f(b)¿b
• Now f(0)=-5
• F(1)= -5 F(2)= 7
• Now we shall find g(x) such that І g' (x)І ¿ 1 at x= x 0

which satisfies І g' (x)І ¿ 1 at x= x 0

If f (p) = p, then we say that p is a fixed point of the function f (x). We note a strong relation
between root finding and finding fixed points:
To convert a fixed-point problem
g(x) = x,
2
to a root finding problem, define f (x) = g(x)−x, and look for roots of f (x) = 0.
If f (p) = p, then we say that p is a fixed point of the function f (x). We note a strong relation
between root finding and finding fixed points:
To convert a fixed-point problem
g(x) = x,
Fixed point iteration method in numerical analysis is used to find an approximate solution to
algebraic and transcendental equations. Sometimes it becomes very tedious to find solutions to
cubic quadratic and transcendental equations then we can apply specific numerical methods to
find the solution. One among those methods is the fixed iteration method .The fixed point
iteration method uses the concept of a fixed point in a repeated manner to compute the solution
of the given equation.
• A fixed point is a point in the domain of a function is algebrically converted in the form
of g(x)=x
• Suppose we have an equation f(x)=0 for which we have to find the solution . The
equation can be expressed as x=g(x)
• Choose g(x ) such that І g' (x)І ¿ 1 at x= x 0 where x 0, is some initial guess called fixed
point iterative scheme.
Then the iterative method is applied by succesive approximations given by x n =g( x n−1) that is x 1
=g( x 0), x 2=g( x 1) so on…

Fixed point iteration method is
• A method for solving NON-LINEAR EQUATIONS
• Non-linear Equations (some examples):
2
• 4 x −1=0
3 2
• x −x +10=0
• y=sin (x )
• y=log ( x )

CHAPTER TWO
If g(a) = a or g(b) = b, then it is clear that the fixed point exists. If this is not true, then it must be
true that g(a) > a and g(b) < b Define h(x)=g(x)-x. Then h is continuous on the interval [a,b] and
Fixed point iteration: The iteration pn=g (p n−1) for n = 0, 1, 2, …… is called a fixed point
iteration.
Convergence: The rate, or order, of convergence is how quickly a set of iterations will reach the
fixed point. In contrary to the bisection method, which was not a fixed point method, and had
order of convergence equal to one, fixed point methods will generally have a higher rate of
5
convergence. If the derivative of the function at the fixed point ≠ zero, there will be linear
convergence, which is the same as convergence of order one. If the derivative at the fixed point
is equal to zero, it is possible for the fixed point method to converge faster than order one. If
working with an equation which iterates to a fixed point, it is ideal to find the constant that
makes the derivative of the function at the fixed point equal to zero to ensure higher order
convergence.
There are four main types of convergence and divergence of the fixed point method. Let g'(x)
equal the derivative of the function g evaluated at the fixed point x:
Monotonic convergence: There is direct convergence to the fixed point with the fixed point
being strongly attractive. Monotonic convergence occurs when 0 < g'(x) < 1
Oscillating convergence: There is indirect convergence to the fixed point with the fixed point
being weakly attractive. Oscillating convergence occurs when -1 < g'(x) < 0
Monotonic divergence: There is direct divergence from the fixed point with the fixed point
being strongly repellent. Monotonic divergence occurs when g'(x) > 1
Oscillating divergence: There is indirect divergence from the fixed point with the fixed point
being weakly repellent. Oscillating divergence occurs when g'(x) < -1

• By applying the successive approximations x n =g( x n−1) ,if f is a continous function we get
a sequence of {x n} which converges to a point which is the approximte solution of the
given equation.

• We can say that the solution of x = F (x) is the intersection of two graphs y = x and y = F
(x).
• For example, see the following figure:

y F ( x)
11
Solution steps
1. Start the computation with initial value x0.
2. From y = F (x), we have y0 = F (x0).
3. Then, from graph y = x, we may assume x1 = y0. From here, we have y1 = F(x1) and x2 =
y1.
4. Similarly, we will obtain x3, x4, … and so on.
We hope that the neighborhood denoted by the dashed line converges to the intersection point of
the two graphs y = x and y = F(x).
Conclusion
Fixed point iteration is of the form
x 1 =F (x 0 ),
x 2 =F (x 1 ),
x 3 =F ( x2 ),
⋮
x i+1 =F ( xi )

• How to make sure that initial value x0 can give a convergent iteration?
Answer:

We differentiate F(x) to get F ′(x).
The iteration converges if

we have determined in Example 2 that:

i) F 1 ( x)= ⇒ F 1 '( x )=x 2

For x0 =−1 . 5 , we have F 1 ' (x 0 )=2. 25>1 .
Condition −1<F ' ( x 0 )<1 is not satisfied
and the iteration with this initial value is divergent .

ii ) F 2 ( x )= 2
⇒ F 2 ' (x )=− 2
x −3 (x −3 )2
For x0 =−0. 3 , we have F 2 '( x 0 )≈−0. 07 that
satisfies condition −1<F ' ( x 0 )<1.
Therefore, the iteration with this initial value
can be examined, since it could possibly converge .

At x 0 =1 . 9 , we have F 3 ' ( x 0 )≈−1 .1<−1 .
Condition −1<F ' ( x 0 )<1 is not satisfied .
Thus, the iteration with this initial value diverges .

Conclusion
Every rootfinding problem can be transformed into any number of fixed point problems
