Dear Frank
Sorry found the papers and the term is >>fixed-point regression<< or
>>fixed-point solution<< !!
here are some papers & sites:==>
http://www.stat.wisc.edu/~wardrop/courses/302ch5.pdf
http://math.fullerton.edu/mathews/n2003/FixedPointMod.html
and
http://lec.ugr.es/~julyan/papers/rkpaper/node5.html
(not sure of last but looked interesting)
all the best
Paul
