On asymptotics of the jump of highest derivative for a polynomial spline (Q1876418)

The author obtains \(2[n/2]+2\) terms (\([\cdot]\) stands for the integer part) of the asymptotic expansion of the error \((S^{(n)}(\bar{x}_i +0)-S^{(n)}(\bar{x}_i -0))/h-f^{(n+1)}(\bar{x}_i)\), where \(S(x)\) is a periodic sufficiently smooth function \(f(x)\) at the nodes \(x_i\) (\(i=0,\pm 1,\dots\)) of a uniform mesh of width \(h\). The nodes of the spline are the points \(\bar{x}_i=x_i+h(1+(-1)^n)/4\). The expansion coefficients are represented explicitly in terms of the values of the Bernoulli polynomials at 0 for \(n\) odd and at 1/2 for \(n\) even.
