In general, there might be a number of reasons why one converges and the other one doesn't. If you just use :newton
it will default to no line search, so no it's actually not Damped Newton's method as FindRoot appears to be. You'd have to choose a line search. Try , linesearch = LineSearches.BackTracking()
. You need to using LineSearches
first.
Hi, I have the same problem and I tried the linesearch as well. But it still does not work. Did you find out any solution? P.S. I have the solutions for FindRoots (Mathematica) and fsolve(Python) which both seem very similar but not same as Julia's roots
Hi,
I encountered the following problem. I have a large system of coupled non-linear equations for which I would like to find the root. I have implemented two versions - one in Julia and one in Mathematica (the latter just as a first trial, the Julia version is the one I plan to use mainly). In Mathematica
FindRoot
using Newton's method nicely converges. NLsolve also converges, but to a different (and also incorrect) solution. I already benchmarked, that the initial condition and also the equations themselves are the same in both codes. Using the Mathematica solution as initial condition fornlsolve
converges immediately, returning the input. So apparently, this seems to be an initial value problem, yet I wonder why we cannot find the solution in Julia if the algorithm (nlsolve(f!, x_initial, method = :newton)
) and the initial condition should be the same. Since the equations are subject of current research, bare with me that I cannot post them here. I am however ready to share code in a private discussion.
