Error estimates of anti-Gaussian quadrature formulae

摘要

Anti-Gauss quadrature formulae associated with four classical Chebyshev weight functions are considered. Complex-variable methods are used to obtain expansions of the error in anti-Gaussian quadrature formulae over the interval [−1,1]. The kernel of the remainder term in anti-Gaussian quadrature formulae is analyzed. The location on the elliptic contours where the modulus of the kernel attains its maximum value is investigated. This leads to effective L∞-error bounds of anti-Gauss quadratures. Moreover, the effective L1-error estimates are also derived. The results obtained here are an analogue of some results of Gautschi and Varga (1983) [11], Gautschi et al. (1990) [9] and Hunter (1995) [10] concerning Gaussian quadratures.
