Abstract

A directional Halley method for functions f of n variables is shown to converge, at a cubic rate, to a solution. To avoid the second derivative needed in the Halley method we propose a directional quasi-Halley method, with one more function evaluation per iteration than the directional Newton method, but with convergence rates comparable to the Halley method.
