Study Notes
- Simpson's 1/3 rule is a method for approximating the definite integral of a function.
- The interval [a, b] is divided into an even number of equal-length subintervals.
- n must be even for this method to work.
- In this method, the area under the curve y = f(x) in the intervals [x₀, x₂] and [x₁, x₃] is approximated by the area of a parabola (or polynomial of degree 2) passing through the points M₀ = (x₀, y₀), M₁ = (x₁, y₁), and M₂ = (x₂, y₂) which lie on the curve y = f(x).
Simpson's 1/3 Rule Formula Derivation
- We let y = p₂(x) = Ax² + Bx + C be the equation of the parabola.
- The integral from x₀ to x₂ of f(x) dx is approximated by the integral from x₀ to x₂ of p₂(x) dx.
- p₂(x) passes through the points M₀, M₁, and M₂ which leads to the equations:
- y₀ = Ax₀² + Bx₀ + C
- y₁ = Ax₁² + Bx₁ + C
- y₂ = Ax₂² + Bx₂ + C
- The integral from x₀ to x₂ of (Ax² + Bx + C) dx is equal to the following, where h = (x₂-x₀)/2:
- (h/3) * [2A(x₂² + x₂x₀ + x₀²) + 3B(x₂ + x₀) + 6C]
- y₀ + 4y₁ + y₂ = A(x₀² + 4x₁² + x₂²) + B(x₀ + 4x₁ + x₂) + 6C
- Simplifying and substituting relationships gives the Simpson's 1/3 rule formula:
- Integral from x₀ to x₂ of f(x) dx ≈ (h/3) * [y₀ + 4y₁ + y₂]
Composite Simpson's 1/3 Rule
- Applying Simpson's 1/3 rule to a series of subintervals yields the composite rule:
- Integral from a to b of f(x) dx ≈ (h/3) * [y₀ + 4(y₁ + y₃ + ... + yₙ₋₁) + 2(y₂ + y₄ + ... + yₙ₋₂) + yₙ].
- This is also known as Simpson's 1/3 rule.
- In the formula, yᵢ = f(xᵢ) for 0 ≤ i ≤ n.
Error Bounds in Trapezoidal Rule
- For n=1, the error is given by Error = integral from x₀ to x₀+h of f(x) dx - (h/2)(f(x₀) + f(x₀+h)).
- This simplifies to Error = -(h³/12)*f''(ξ) for some ξ ∈ (x₀, x₀+h).
- For any n ≥ 1, the error is Error = -(b-a)/12 * h² * f''(ξ) for some ξ ∈ (a, b).
- This is also equal to Error = -(b-a)³/12n² * f''(ξ).
- The integral from a to b of f(x) dx ≈ h/2 * [f(x₀) + f(xₙ) + 2(f(x₁) + ... + f(xₙ₋₁))].
- Also, the error is -(b-a)³/12n² * f''(ξ), for some ξ ∈ (a, b).
- If we let m* = min(f''(t)) for t in [a, b] and M* = max(f''(t)) for t in [a, b],
- K = -(b-a)³/12n² < 0.
- K * m* ≤ f''(ξ) ≤ K * M*
Error Bounds in Simpson's 1/3 Rule
- Assume f(x) is four times differentiable and f^(4)(x) exists on [a, b] and is continuous
- Then the error e in the Simpson's 1/3 formula is e = -(b - a)⁵ / (180n⁴) * f^(4)(ξ) for some ξ in (a, b).
- Let m* = min(f^(4)(ξ)) and M* = max(f^(4)(ξ)).
- Then -(b - a)⁵ / (180n⁴) * M* ≤ error ≤ -(b - a)⁵ / (180n⁴) * m*.
