In this paper, we present a technique that improves the applicability of the result obtained by Cordero et al. in 2024 for solving nonlinear equations. Cordero et al. assumed the involved operator to be differentiable at least five times to extend a two-step p-order method to order . We obtained the convergence order of Cordero et al.’s method by assuming only up to the third-order derivative of the operator. Our analysis is in a more general commutative Banach algebra setting and provides a radius of the convergence ball. Finally, we validate our theoretical findings with several numerical examples. Also, the concept of basin of attraction is discussed with examples.

In this paper, we study the convergence of a class of iterative methods for solving the system of nonlinear Banach space valued equations. We provide a unified local and semi-local convergence analysis for these methods. The convergence order of these methods are obtained using the conditions on the derivatives of the involved operator up to order 2 only. Further, we provide the number of iterations required to obtain the given accuracy of the solution. Various numerical examples including integral equations and Caputo fractional differential equations are considered to show the performance of our methods.
