A BFGS type method is presented to solve symmetric nonlinear equations, which is shown to be globally convergent under suitable conditions. Compared with some existing Gauss-Newton-based BFGS methods whose iterative matrix approximates the Gauss-Newton matrix, an important feature of the proposed method lies in that the iterative matrix is an approximation of the Jacobian, which greatly reduces condition number of the iterative matrix. Numerical results are reported to support the theory.
