An alternative to the Euler--Maclaurin formula: Approximating sums by integrals only

The Euler--MacLaurin summation formula can be written as $$ \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} f(k)\approx \int^{n-1}_0f(x)\,dx + \frac{f(n-1) + f(0)}2 + \sum_{j=1}^m\frac{B_{2j}}{(2j)!}[f^{(2j - 1)}(n-1)...

bounds on derivatives of mollifiers/mollified functions

Consider the standard mollifier $$ \phi(x) = C\exp\left(-\frac{1}{1-x^2}\right), \quad -1<x<1. $$ such that $\int\phi(x) = 1$. Let $f(x) = |x|$ and consider the convolution $f\ast \phi$. I am ...

Error estimates for orthogonal polynomial approximation

tl;dr: Are there explicit bounds for the approximation error by orthogonal polynomials? There are various ways to formulate this question more precisely, so want I emphasize up front that this is a ...

Error bounds for approximation with dyadic sums of polynomials

Are there any bounds known for approximating a genuine multidimensional polynomial function with a sum one-dimensional polynomials over the independent variables? In the 2-dimensional case the ...

Feller semigroups and fractional operators

Have Feller semigroups been used to investigate the properties of the Cauchy problem associated with the fractional Laplacian (just like they have been used to study local degenerate second order ...
