We approximate F(A) with the aid of rational Gauss quadrature rules. Associated rational Gauss-Radau and rational anti-Gauss rules are developed. Pairs of rational Gauss and rational Gauss-Radau quadrature rules, or pairs of rational Gauss and rational anti-Gauss quadrature rules, can be used to determine upper and lower bounds, or approximate upper and lower bounds, for F(A). The application of rational Gauss rules, instead of standard Gauss rules, is beneficial when the function f has singularities close to the spectrum of A.

These functionals can be approximated by quadrature rules. Golub and Meurant proposed a technique for computing upper and lower error bounds for Stieltjes integrals with integrands whose derivatives do not change sign on the convex hull of the support of the measure. This technique is based on evaluating pairs of a Gauss quadrature rule and a suitably chosen Gauss-Radau or Gauss-Lobatto quadrature rule. However, when derivatives of the integrand change sign on the convex hull of the support of the measure, this technique is not guaranteed to give upper and lower error bounds for the functional. We describe an extension of the technique by Golub and Meurant that yields upper and lower error bounds for the functional in situations when only some derivatives of the integrand do not change sign on the convex hull of the support of the measure. This extension is based on the use of pairs of Gauss, and suitable generalized Gauss-Radau or Gauss-Lobatto rules. New methods to evaluate generalized Gauss-Radau and Gauss-Lobatto rules also are described.

For the generalized Chebyshev weight of the first (third) kind, it is shown that the modulus of the kernel \vert K_{n,s}(z)\vert attains its maximum on the real axis (positive real semi-axis) for each ngeq n_0, n_0Dn_0(rho,s) . It was stated as a conjecture in [Mathematics of Computation 72 (2003), 1855-1872]. For the generalized Chebyshev weight of the second kind, in the case when the number of the nodes n in the corresponding Gauss-Turan quadrature formula is even, it is shown that the modulus of the kernel attains its maximum on the imaginary axis for each ngeq n_0, n_0Dn_0(rho,s) .

Gauss quadrature is a popular approach to approximate the value of a desired integral determined ... more Gauss quadrature is a popular approach to approximate the value of a desired integral determined by a measure with support on the real axis. Laurie proposed an (n + 1)-point quadrature rule that gives an error of the same magnitude and of opposite sign as the associated n-point Gauss quadrature rule for all polynomials of degree up to 2n + 1. This rule is referred to as an anti-Gauss rule. It is useful for the estimation of the error in the approximation of the desired integral furnished by the n-point Gauss rule. This paper describes a modification of the (n + 1)-point anti-Gauss rule, that has n + k nodes and gives an error of the same magnitude and of opposite sign as the associated n-point Gauss quadrature rule for all polynomials of degree up to 2n+2k -1 for some k > 1. We refer to this rule as a generalized anti-Gauss rule. An application to error estimation of matrix functionals is presented.

A matrix which has the same role for computation of rational Gauss quadrature as Jacobi matrix does for classical Gauss quadrature is now septadiagonal matrix (or pentadiagonal if we do not have complex poles) with 5 × 5 and/or 3 × 3 blocks along a diagonal.

Analogous recursion formulas are available for orthogonal Laurent polynomials with a pole at the origin. This paper investigates recursion relations for orthogonal rational functions with arbitrary prescribed real or complex conjugate poles. The number of terms in the recursion relation is shown to be related to the structure of the orthogonal rational functions.

The method is particularly attractive when the rational functions that determine the process have only few distinct poles , because then few factorizations of matrices of the form A − zjI have to be computed. We discuss recursion relations for orthogonal bases of rational Krylov subspaces determined by rational functions with few distinct poles. These recursion formulas yield a new implementation of the rational Arnoldi process. Applications of the rational Arnoldi process to the approximation of matrix functions as well as to the computation of eigenvalues and pseudospectra of A are described. The new implementation is compared to several available implementations.
