Increasing reliability of Gauss-Kronrod quadrature by Eratosthenes' sieve method (Q5938246): Difference between revisions

The reliability of local error estimates returned by the Gauss-Kronrod quadrature rules is discussed. The authors study two important cases: the case of monotonic and the case of non-monotonic integrands. They found that Eratosthenes' sieve method can be succesfully used to derive validation criteria which are adapted to the integrand structure.
