Expanding the applicability of Tikhonov's regularization and iterative approximation for ill-posed problems

Recently, Vasin [28] considered a new iterative method for approximately solving nonlinear ill-posed operator equation in Hilbert spaces. In this paper we introduce a modified form of the method considered by Vasin. This paper weakens the conditions needed in the existing results. We use a center-type Lipschitz condition in our convergence analysis instead of a Lipschitz-type condition used in [28]. This way a tighter convergence analysis is obtained and under less computational cost, since the more precise and easier to compute center-Lipschitz instead of the Lipschitz constant is used in the convergence analysis. Order optimal error bounds are given in case the regularization parameter is chosen a priori and by the adaptive method of Pereverzev and Schock [25]. A numerical example of a nonlinear integral equation proves the efficiency of the proposed method.
