Fractional Hermite interpolation for non-smooth functions

Jiayin Zhai, Zhiyue Zhang, and Tongke Wang

Abstract

The interpolation of functions plays a fundamental role in numerical analysis. The highly accurate approximation of non-smooth functions is a challenge in science and engineering as traditional polynomial interpolation cannot characterize the singular features of these functions. This paper aims at designing a fractional Hermite interpolation for non-smooth functions based on the local fractional Taylor expansion and at deriving the corresponding explicit formula and its error remainder. We also present a piecewise hybrid Hermite interpolation scheme, a combination of fractional Hermite interpolation and traditional Hermite interpolation. Some numerical examples are presented to show the high accuracy of the fractional Hermite interpolation method.
