Abstract

The mesh-independence principle asserts that, when Newton’s method is applied to a nonlinear equation between some Banach spaces as well as to some finite-dimensional discretization of that equation, then the behavior of the discretized process is asymptotically the same as that for the original iteration and, as a consequence, the number of steps required by the two processes to converge to within a given tolerance is essentially the same. So far this result has been proved only for certain classes of boundary value problems. In this paper a proof is presented for a general class of operator equations and discretizations. It covers the earlier results and extends them well beyond the cases that have been considered before.
