I have two systems $$ A \vec{x} = f(\vec{x}, \vec{y}), \:\:\: A \vec{y} = g(\vec{x}, \vec{y}) $$ Both have the same constant, square, invertible matrix $A$. I implemented an iterative algorithm with an initial value of $\vec{x_{0}}, \vec{y_{0}}$. Then $$ \vec{x_{n+1}} = A^{-1} f(\vec{x_{n}},\vec{y_{n}}), \:\:\: \vec{y_{n+1}} = A^{-1} g(\vec{x_{n}},\vec{y_{n}}) $$ And it turns out that they are always convergent when I compute in Matlab, for a particular matrix $A$.

Is there a theorem that specifies the necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence?
