For Iterated Tikhonov regularization, set and . In a singular system of a compact operator, each coefficient obeys
Summing this geometric recurrence gives
Equivalently, its iterated Tikhonov spectral filter is . For , the finite geometric sum gives
Consequently the inverse coefficient is at most . Thus every is a bounded linear operator with
For exact admissible data, write . The Picard criterion gives , and
by dominated convergence theorem. Therefore this is a linear regularization of an inverse problem with discrete parameter ; a family for all positive can be obtained by setting . No upper restriction on the positive step size is needed for this implicit iteration.
