On Sard's quadrature formulas of order two (Q582515)

The author attempts to improve Kershaw's results on the norm of the Peano kernel and on the convergence of \(R^ s_ n[f]\), and discusses the weights \(a^ s_{i,n}\) in more details, especially if the nodes are given by certain node distribution functions \(z[ie y_{i,n}=z(i_ n/n)].\) A generalization of the first and second conjecture of Meyers and Sard is proposed also. This generalization holds for the particular case discussed in the paper.
