  • Beschreibung: <p>This paper considers the approximate evaluation of ∫&lt;sup&gt;b&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sub&gt;a&lt;/sub&gt; k(x)f(x) dx, where k is a fixed Lebesgue integrable function, by quadrature rules of the form ∑&lt;sup&gt;m&lt;sub&gt;n&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sub&gt;i=0&lt;/sub&gt; w&lt;sub&gt;in&lt;/sub&gt;f(x&lt;sub&gt;in&lt;/sub&gt;). Normally rules of this kind are used only for smooth functions f, and any singularities are incorporated into k. Here, however, we allow f to have a singularity, either at an endpoint or in the interior. General convergence properties are established for a wide class of product integration rules. More detailed results are established for the class of rules which are exact if f belongs to a specified family of piecewise polynomials.</p>
