Abstract: Minimal cubature rules of degree

4 n - 1

for the weight functions

W_{a,�,pm frac12}(x,y) = |x+y|^{2a+1} |x-y|^{2�+1} ((1-x^2)(1-y^2))^{pm frac12}

on

[- 1, 1]^{2}

are constructed explicitly and are shown to be closed related to the Gaussian cubature rules in a domain bounded by two lines and a parabola. Lagrange interpolation polynomials on the nodes of these cubature rules are constructed and their Lebesgue constants are determined.

Review text

The author constructs cubature rules with the smallest number of nodes among all cubature rules of the same precision. Those cubature rules have the degree \(4n-1\) for the corresponding weight functions on \(\left[-1,1\right] \times \left[-1,1\right]\). The Theorem 4.2 gives the minimal cubature rule and then it shows that the nodes of this rule and the node of the Gaussian cubature rule of degree \(2n-1\) on \(\left[-1,1\right]\times \left[-1,1\right]\) are related. In the 5th and 6th part, the author gives a direct construction for the Lagrange interpolation and Gaussian cubature rules, showing the relation between them and the minimal cubature rule.
