Iteration-Free Computation of Gauss-Legendre Quadrature Nodes and Weights
Gauss–Legendre quadrature rules are of considerable theoretical and practical interest because of their role in numerical integration and interpolation. In this paper, a series expansion for the zeros of the Legendre polynomials is constructed. In addition, a series expansion useful for the computation of the Gauss–Legendre weights is derived. Together, these two expansions provide a practical ...
متن کاملFast and rigorous arbitrary-precision computation of Gauss-Legendre quadrature nodes and weights
We describe a strategy for rigorous arbitrary-precision evaluation of Legendre polynomials on the unit interval and its application in the generation of Gauss-Legendre quadrature rules. Our focus is on making the evaluation practical for a wide range of realistic parameters, corresponding to the requirements of numerical integration to an accuracy of about 100 to 100 000 bits. Our algorithm com...
متن کاملFast and Accurate Computation of Gauss-Legendre and Gauss-Jacobi Quadrature Nodes and Weights
An efficient algorithm for the accurate computation of Gauss–Legendre and Gauss– Jacobi quadrature nodes and weights is presented. The algorithm is based on Newton’s root-finding method with initial guesses and function evaluations computed via asymptotic formulae. The n-point quadrature rule is computed in O(n) operations to an accuracy of essentially double precision for any n ≥ 100.
متن کاملOn the Numerical Evaluation of a Class of Oscillatory Integrals in Worldline Variational Calculations
Filon-Simpson quadrature rules are derived for integrals of the type ∫ b a dx f(x) sin(xy)/(xy) and ∫ b a dx f(x) 4 sin(xy/2)/(xy) which are needed in applications of the worldline variational approach to Quantum Field Theory. These new integration rules reduce to the standard Simpson rule for y = 0 and are exact for y → ∞ when a = 0 and f(0) 6= 0. The subleading term in the asymptotic expansio...
متن کاملInterpolation approximations based on Gauss-Lobatto-Legendre-Birkhoff quadrature
We derive in this paper the asymptotic estimates of the nodes and weights of the Gauss-Lobatto-Legendre-Birkhoff (GLLB) quadrature formula, and obtain optimal error estimates for the associated GLLB interpolation in Jacobi weighted Sobolev spaces. We also present a useroriented implementation of the pseudospectral methods based on the GLLB quadrature nodes for Neumann problems. This approach al...
