The error bounds of Gaussian quadratures for one rational modification of Chebyshev measures

For an analytic integrand, the error term in the Gaussian quadrature can be represented as a contour integral, where the contour is commonly taken to be an ellipse. Thus, finding its upper bound can be reduced to finding the maximum of the modulus of the kernel on the ellipse. The location of this maximum was investigated in many special cases, particularly, for the Gaussian quadrature with respect to the Chebyshev measures modified by a quadratic divisor (known as the Bernstein–Szeg̋ measures). Here, for the Gaussian quadratures with respect to the Chebyshev measures modified by a linear over linear rational factor, we examine the kernel and describe sufficient conditions for the maximum to occur on the real axis. Furthermore, an assessment of the kernel is made in each case, since in some cases the true maximum is hard to reach. Hence, we derive the error bounds for these quadrature formulas. The results are illustrated by the numerical examples. An alternative approach for estimating the error of the Gaussian quadrature with respect to the same measure can be found in [Djukić, D. L., Djukić, R. M. M., Reichel, L. & Spalević, M. M. (2023, Weighted averaged Gaussian quadrature rules for modified Chebyshev measure. Appl. Numer. Math., ISSN 0168-9274)].
