Abstract
In this paper we develop convergence and acceleration theory for Anderson acceleration applied to Newton's method for nonlinear systems in which the Jacobian is singular at a solution. For these problems, the standard Newton algorithm converges linearly in a region about the solution; and, it has been previously observed that Anderson acceleration can substantially improve convergence without additional a priori knowledge, and with little additional computation cost. We present an analysis of the Newton-Anderson algorithm in this context, and introduce a novel and theoretically supported safeguarding strategy. The convergence results are demonstrated with the Chandrasekhar H-equation and some standard benchmark examples.
