Mathematics Final Year Topic: Convergence Bounds for Fixed-Point Iteration on Selected Contraction Mappings

This Mathematics final year project compares theoretical contraction bounds with computed errors for carefully chosen one-dimensional mappings.

Why choose this project topic?

A focused study of contraction iteration gives you a specific question in real analysis and numerical methods. It compares theoretical contraction bounds with computed errors for carefully chosen one-dimensional mappings. The bounded comparison creates room to explain how your evidence supports an interpretation and where the method has limits.

How closely do contraction-based error bounds describe observed fixed-point iteration errors for selected mappings?

Agree the apparatus or dataset, comparison range and feasible measurement schedule for contraction iteration with your supervisor.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Define the materials, variables and comparison conditions for contraction iteration.
  2. 02State the domain, invariant-set condition and contraction constant for each example.
  3. 03Evaluate the measurements or model outputs in relation to this question: How closely do contraction-based error bounds describe observed fixed-point iteration errors for selected mappings?

A suggested research approach

State the domain, invariant-set condition and contraction constant for each example. Prove the relevant bound, implement the iteration and compare true or high-accuracy reference errors with the a priori and a posteriori estimates. Agree the available resources and record uncertainty, deviations from the protocol and any observations that challenge the initial interpretation.

What you will need

  • A defined set of mappings with checkable assumptions
  • References for the contraction mapping theorem
  • Reproducible numerical calculations and error plots

Keep your project scope clear

A successful iteration in an example does not prove contraction on an unstated domain or convergence from every starting value.
