If you start it anywhere near a root of f(x), Newton’s method can converge extremely quickly: asymp-totically, it doubles the number of accurate digits on each step. However, if you start it far from a root, the convergence can be hard to predict, and it may not even converge at all (it can oscillate forever around a local minimum).

A multivariate Newton’s method for finding zeroes of \ ( f (\vec {x}) = 0 \in \mathbb {R} \) just is not so easy because that zero set won’t just be a point. However, we can use Newton’s method more fruitfully in the setting of optimization.

1 Newton’s method and nonlinear equations In rst-year calculus, most students learnNewton’s methodfor solving nonlinear equations f(x) = 0, which iteratively improves a sequence of guesses for the solution xby approximating f by a straight line.

This can be extended to systems of nonlinear equations as a multidimensional Newton method, in which we iterate by solving a sequence of linear ...

Newton’s method entails similar convergence issues in multiple dimensions as in a single dimension. Just as the univariate method fails if f ′( x [ k ] ) = 0, so will the multivariate method fail if J f ( x [ k ] ) is singular.

2 Multivariate Newton’s method The multivariate Newton’s method for minimization is very similar to New-ton’s method for root nding. Recall that when Newton’s method is used for minimization of the function f you try to nd the root of the function g= f 0. Expanding the Newton iteration x t+1 = x t g(x t)=g(x t) in terms of fwe have x t+1 = x t 0f(x t)=f 00(x

Newton’s method can be extended to multivariate functions in order to compute much better search directions than gradient descent. It attempts to nd a point at which the function gradient is zero using a quadratic ap-proximation of the function. Like in the univariate case, Newton’s method achieves quadratic order of convergence.

A multivariate Newton’s method for finding zeroes of \( f(\vec{x}) = 0 \in \mathbb{R} \) just is not so easy because that zero set won’t just be a point. However, we can use Newton’s method more fruitfully in the setting of optimization.

It is well known that the Newton method may not converge when the initial guess does not belong to a specific quadratic convergence region.

Newton’s method entails similar convergence issues in multiple dimensions as in a single dimension. Just as the univariate method fails if f ′ ( x[k]) = 0, so will the multivariate method fail if J f ( x[k]) is singular. Issues of no solution or multiple solutions also arise.
