AIMS Mathematics 2021; 6 (7): 6699-6714.]. To guarantee these convergence and stability results, the authors imposed some strong conditions on parametric control sequences which are used in the K* iterative method. The aim of the presented work is twofold: (a) to recapture the aforementioned results without any restrictions imposed on the mentioned parametric control sequences (b) to complete the work of Yu et al. by adding a result regarding the data dependency of the fixed points of quasi-strictly contractive mappings. We also furnish some illustrative examples to support our results. Our work can be considered an important refinement and complement of the work of Yu et al.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessConvergence; Data dependency; Fixed points; Iterative methods; Quasi-strictly contractive mappings; StabilityArticle467Q2WOS:0008885925000171142887N/A2-s2.0-8513816617810.55730/1300-0098.3303
