On the Convergence of a New Family of Multi-Point Ehrlich-Type Iterative Methods for Polynomial Zeros

In this paper, we construct and study a new family of multi-point Ehrlich-type iterative methods for approximating all the zeros of a uni-variate polynomial simultaneously. The first member of this family is the two-point Ehrlich-type iterative method introduced and studied by Trićković and Petković in 1999. The main purpose of the paper is to provide local and semilocal convergence analysis of the multi-point Ehrlich-type methods. Our local convergence theorem is obtained by an approach that was introduced by the authors in 2020. Two numerical examples are presented to show the applicability of our semilocal convergence theorem.
