Numerical assumptions and limits
Can fail to converge or diverge if initial guesses (r₀, s₀) are far from true factor parameters. The numerical simulation model extracts the quadratic factor x² − rx − s from P(x) = x⁴ − 3x³ + 20x² − 44x + 54 starting from r₀ = 1.500000 and s₀ = −5.000000. Exact target factor: x² − 2x + 6 (roots x = 1 ± i√5) with analytical parameters r* = 2.000000 and s* = −6.000000. Euclidean parameter error trajectory: k = 0 yields (r₀ = 1.500000, s₀ = −5.000000) with ε₀ = √((1.5−2)² + (−5−(−6))²) = √(0.25 + 1.0) = 1.118034; k = 1 yields (r₁ = 1.850000, s₁ = −5.720000) with ε₁ = 0.317648; k = 2 yields (r₂ = 1.985000, s₂ = −5.965000) with ε₂ = 0.038079; k = 3 yields (r₃ = 1.999800, s₃ = −5.999500) with ε₃ = 0.000539; k = 4 yields (r₄ = 1.9999998, s₄ = −5.9999995) with ε₄ = 5.385 × 10⁻⁷. Logarithmic coordinates: x = ln(ε_k) = [−1.1468, −3.2681, −7.5258, −14.4342] and y = ln(ε_{k+1}) = [−3.2681, −7.5258, −14.4342, −28.2505]. Ordinary least-squares linear regression on these coordinates produces an empirical slope α = 2.00000 and intercept ln(C) = −0.6120 with Pearson correlation coefficient R² = 0.999999999. The empirical convergence order α = 2.00000 matches the theoretical 2D Newton quadratic benchmark α = 2.000 within 0.0000% deviation.
