Lacunary quadrature formulae and interpolation singularity (Q1318236): Difference between revisions

Birkhoff quadrature formula (q.f.) which have algebraic degree of precision (ADP) greater than the number of values used, are studied. In particular, we construct a class of quadrature rules of \(\text{ADP} = 2n + 2r + 1\) which are based on the information \(\{f^{(j)} (-1),f^{(j)} (1)\), \(j=0, \dots, r-1\), \(f^{(2m)} (x_ i)\), \(i=1, \dots, n\}\), where \(m\) is a positive integer and \(r=m\) or \(r=m-1\). It is known that the corresponding Birkhoff interpolation problems of the same type are not regular at the quadrature nodes. This means that the constructed quadrature formulae are not of interpolatory type. Finally, for each \(m\), we prove the existence of a quadrature formulae based on the information \(\{f(x_ i), f^{(2m)} (x_ i)\), \(i=1, \dots, 2m\}\), which has algebraic degree of precision \(4m+1\).
