Hermite and Hermite-Fejer Interpolation and Associated Product Integration Rules on the Real Line: The L1 Theory

Abstract

AbstractWe investigate convergence in a weighted L1 -norm of Hermite-Fejér and Hermite interpolation at the zeros of orthogonal polynomials associated with weights on the real line. The results are then applied to convergences of product integration rules. From the point of view of orthogonal polynomials, the new feature is that Freud and Erdös weights are treated simultaneously and that relatively few assumptions are placed on the weight. From the point of view of product integration, the rules exhibit convergence for highly oscillatory kernels (for example) and for functions of rapid growth at infinity.
