Generalized Gauss-Radau and Gauss-Lobatto formulas with Jacobi weight functions (Q512855): Difference between revisions

The author considers generalized Gauss-Radau quadratures and generalized Gauss-Lobatto quadratures for \[ \int_{-1}^1 \omega(x)\,f(x)\,dx \] with the Jacobi weight function \[ \omega(x) = (1-x)^{\alpha}\,(1+x)^{\beta}\,, \] where \(\alpha> -1\) and \(\beta > - 1\). The interior weights are semi-explicitly computed and the endpoint weights of these quadrature formulas are recursively determined. In comparison to \textit{W. Gautschi} [BIT 44, No. 4, 711--720 (2004; Zbl 1076.65023)], where numerical integration has been used to evaluate certain integrals, exact formulas are obtained in this paper. Numerical experiments are presented too.
