A biparametric family of four-step sixteenth-order root-finding methods with the optimal efficiency index. (English) Zbl 1225.65051

A biparametric family of four-step multipoint iterative methods to solve nonlinear equations is given. Convergence of sixteenth order is established, and the efficiency index is found to be the optimal one \(16^{1/5}\approx 1.741101\). Numerical experiments compare the new method with existing methods.
