Some extrapolation processes for integrands with endpoint singularities. (English) Zbl 0597.65011
Summary: A study of some numerical quadratures for endpoint singularity integrands, linear and nonlinear extrapolation processes which include the Romberg method, Aitken’s $$\Delta^ 2$$ process and the $$\epsilon$$- algorithm is reported. These acceleration processes can be shown to belong to the Neville type extrapolation. The $$\epsilon$$-algorithm is not as good as the modified Romberg method but better than the unmodified Romberg and Aitken’s $$\Delta^ 2$$ process. This report may help the users to select the appropriate method for evaluating the integrand with singularity efficiently.
