Suppose that r is a double zero of the C2 function f, i.e., f(r) = f′(r) = 0 but f′′(r) is not 0. Show that Newton’s method applied to f converges linearly with the asymptotic constant 1/2, i.e., show that

lim n->infinity | x(n+1)−r | / | x(n)−r | = 1/2.

Suppose that Newton’s method is applied to find the solution p = 0 of the equation e^x −1−x− (1/2)x^2 = 0. It is known that, starting with any p0 > 0, the sequence {pn} produced by the Newton’s method is monotonically decreasing (i.e., p0 >p1 >p2 >···)and converges to 0. Prove that {pn} converges to 0 linearly with rate 2/3. (hint: You need to have the patience to use L’Hospital rule repeatedly. ) Please do the proof.
