Abstract: We present a local convergence of two-step solvers for solving nonlinear operator equations under the generalized Lipschitz conditions for the first- and second-order derivatives and for the first order divided differences. In contrast to earlier works, we use our new idea of center average Lipschitz conditions, through which, we define a subset of the original domain that also contains the iterates. Then, the remaining average Lipschitz conditions are at least as tight as the corresponding ones in earlier works. This way, we obtain weaker sufficient convergence criteria, larger radius of convergence, tighter error estimates, and better information on the solution. These extensions require the same effort, since the new Lipschitz functions are special cases of the ones in earlier works. Finally, we give a numerical example that confirms the theoretical results, and compares favorably to the results from previous works.
