Romberg Integration Recursive formula of the composite trapezoid rule Extrapolation (low order formula – high order formula)
Recursive formula of the composite trapezoid rule Let denote the composite trapezoid rule with 2n subintervals, we have
Extrapolation Error of the composite trapezoid rule Idea: We can extrapolate with the second-order formula, cancel the second order term, and yield a fourth-order formula; extrapolation with the resulting fourth-order formula gives a sixth-order formula, and so on.
4-th order formula 6-th order formula
