On the p-adic analogue of the Newton-Raphson method for finding the zero of a polynomial

Hensel's Lemma is a very powerful tool in determining the existence of a root of polynomials contained in zp(x). It is just the p-adic analog of the Newton-Raphson root-finding algorithm from Numerical Analysis. In this thesis we extend the Hensel's Lemma to a bigger class of polynomials o...
