Conjecture on monotonicity and floating-point accuracy of PSWF quadrature errors
Conjecture on monotonicity and floating-point accuracy of PSWF quadrature errors
Let be real, let be an integer, and let be the stated quadrature rule. For even integers with , let be the quadrature error. Quadrature-error monotonicity conjecture. The function is monotonically increasing as a function of even in the range . Moreover, in double-precision calculations, is zero up to machine precision for every . The conjecture records numerical observations that had not been fully investigated; the source points to a theorem giving a related upper bound and to further numerical evidence.
