Asymptotic Gauss-Jacobi quadrature error estimation for Schwarz-Christoffel integrals (Q2370172)

Several numerical conformal mapping packages are based on the Schwarz-Christoffel formula and use composite \(n\)-point Gauss-Jacobi rules for the estimation of the Schwarz-Christoffel path integrals. The author derives an explicitly computable estimate, asymptotic as \(n\to \infty\), for the relevant Gauss-Jacobi quadrature error. A numerical example illustrates the potential accuracy of the estimate even at low values of \(n\).
