We describe an iteration procedure in a Banach space which is quadratically convergent like Newton's method. In fact, it is a modification of the latter. The inverted derivatives are replaced by so-called contractors which are constructed recursively. Moreover, this method is extended to a scale of Banach spaces. It turns out that the rate of convergence remains quadratic, even if the norms of the contractors are increasing exponentially. A hard implicit function theorem results. In particular, this theorem can be applied to prove existence of quasiperiodic solutions for the Lorenz model of stationary convection.
