THE DIVERGENCE OF LAGRANGE INTERPOLATION IN EQUIDISTANT NODES

It is a classical result of Bernstein that the sequence of Lagrange interpolation polynomials to [x] at equally spaced nodes in [- 1,1 ] diverges everywhere, except at zero and the end-points. In this paper we show that the sequence of Lagrange interpolation polynomials corresponding to the functions which possess better smoothness on equidistant nodes in [- 1,1 ] still diverges every where in the interval except at zero and the end-points.     

On the Lebesgue constant of Berrut’s rational interpolant at equidistant nodes

It is well known that polynomial interpolation at equidistant nodes can give bad approximation results and that rational interpolation is a promising alternative in this setting. In this paper we confirm this observation by proving that the Lebesgue constant of Berrut’s rational interpolant grows only logarithmically in the number of interpolation nodes. Moreover, the numerical results suggest that the Lebesgue constant behaves similarly for interpolation at Chebyshev as well as logarithmically distributed nodes.     

THE DIVERGENCE OF LAGRANGE INTERPOLATION FOR ｜x｜^α（2〈α〈4）AT EQUIDISTANT NODES

It is a classical result of Bernstein that the sequence of Lagrange interpolation polumomials to ｜x｜ at equally spaced nodes in [-1, 1] diverges everywhere, except at zero and the end-points. In the present paper, toe prove that the sequence of Lagrange interpolation polynomials corresponding to ｜x｜^α （2 〈 α 〈 4） on equidistant nodes in [-1, 1] diverges everywhere, except at zero and the end-points.     

Strong asymptotics in Lagrange interpolation with equidistant nodes

In this paper we prove three conjectures of Revers on Lagrange interpolation for f_λ(t)=|t|^λ,λ>0, at equidistant nodes. In particular, we describe the rate of divergence of the Lagrange interpolants L_N( f_λ,t) for 0<|t|<1, and discuss their convergence at t=0. We also establish an asymptotic relation for max_|t|1| |t|^λ−L_N( f_λ,t)|. The proofs are based on strong asymptotics for |t|^λ−L_N( f_λ,t), 0|t|<1.     

The Lebesgue constant for Lagrange interpolation on equidistant nodes

Summary Forn=1, 2, 3, ..., let _n denote the Lebesgue constant for Lagrange interpolation based on the equidistant nodesx _{k, n} =k, k=0, 1, 2, ...,n. In this paper an asymptotic expansion for log _n is obtained, thereby improving a result of A. Schönhage.     

THE DIVERGENCE OF LAGRANGE INTERPOLATION FOR |x|α (2＜α＜4) AT EQUIDISTANT NODES

It is a classical result of Bernstein that the sequence of Lagrange interpolation polynomials to |x| at equally spaced nodes in [-1, 1] diverges everywhere, except at zero and the end-points. In the present paper, we prove that the sequence of Lagrange interpolation polynomials corresponding to |x|α(2 ＜α＜ 4) on equidistant nodes in [-1,1] diverges everywhere, except at zero and the end-points.     

THE DIVERGENCE OF LAGRANGE INTERPOLATION FOR |x|α

This paper shows that the sequence of Lagrange interpolation polynomials corresponding to the function f(x) = |x|α(1 ＜α＜ 2) on [-1, 1] can diverge everywhere in the interval except at zero and the end-points.     

ON LAGRANGE INTERPOLATION TO |x|α(1 ＜α＜ 2) WITH EQUALLY SPACED NODES

S.M. Lozinskii proved the exact convergence rate at the zero of Lagrange interpolation polynomials to |x| based on equidistant nodes in [-1, 1]. In 2000, M. Rever generalized S.M. Lozinskii's result to |x|α(0 ≤α≤ 1). In this paper we will present the exact rate of convergence at the point zero for the interpolants of |x|α(1 ＜α＜ 2)..     

Notes on orthogonal polynomials for exponential weights (Root-distances. Weighted Lebesgue function)

We prove some results on the root-distances and the weighted Lebesgue function corresponding to orthogonal polynomials for exponential weights, where the weights are not necessarily symmetric. Supported by the Hungarian National Science Foundation Grants (OTKA) T37299 and T047132.
