Summation, Gaussian quadrature, convergence, weight function, three-term recurrence relation, contour integrationAbstract
In this survey paper we present two classes of summation procedures based on ideas related to Gaussian quadratures. Such summation/integration procedures can be applied to the summation of slowly convergent series. Numerical examples are included.
