Abstract
Pt.1. 1) Relying on a theorem of Nemerovsky and Yuden(1979) a lower bound is given for the efficiency of global Newton methods over the class C1(mu, Lambda). 2) The efficiency of Smale's global Newton method in a simple setting with a nonsingular, Lipschitz-continuous Jacobian is considered. The efficiency is characterized by 2 parameters, the condition number Q and the smoothness S. The efficiency is sensitive to S, and insensitive to Q.
