Convergence of Hermite and Hermite-Fejér interpolation of higher order for Freud weights (Q5959021)

The \(L_p\)-convergence \((0<p <\infty)\) of Hermite-Fejér and Hermite interpolation of higher-order is investigated for an interpolatory matrix \(X\) whose rows are the zeros of a sequence of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a class of Freud weights on the real line. The main theorems proved in this paper cover the results known in the literature on weighted Lagrange, Hermite-Fejér, Hermite interpolation for even Freud weights as well as they provide new results for Krylov-Stayermann interpolation processes. Quadrature and derivative estimates are also obtained, which are of independent interest.
