Abstract In this paper, general real Kronrod extensions of Gaussian quadrature formulas with multiple nodes are introduced. A proof of their existence and uniqueness is given. In some cases, the explicit expressions of polynomials, whose zeros are the nodes of the considered quadratures, are determined. Very effective error bounds of the Gauss — Turán — Kronrod quadrature formulas, with Gori — Micchelli weight functions, for functions analytic on confocal ellipses, are derived.

Instead of a quadrature rule of Gaussian type with respect to an even weight function on (?a, a) with n nodes, we construct the corresponding Gaussian formula on (0, a2) with only [(n+1)/2] nodes. Especially, such a procedure is important in the cases of nonclassical weight functions, when the elements of the corresponding three-diagonal Jacobi matrix must be constructed numerically. In this manner, the influence of numerical instabilities in the process of construction can be significantly reduced, because the dimension of the Jacobi matrix is halved. We apply this approach to Pollaczek?s type weight functions on (?1, 1), to the weight functions on R which appear in the Abel-Plana summation processes, as well as to a class of weight functions with four free parameters, which covers the generalized ultraspherical and Hermite weights. Some numerical examples are also included.

Determinant Theory

By using a variational method, we study the structure of the Padé table for a formal power series. For series of Stieltjes, this method is employed to study the relations of the Padé approximants with orthogonal polynomials and gaussian quadrature formulas. Hence, we can study convergence, precise locations of poles and zeros, monotonicity, and so on, of these approximants. Our methods have nothing to do with determinant theory and the theory of continued fractions which were used extensively in the past.
