Jamie Pommersheim, Reed College, “Euler-Maclaurin summation formulas for polytopes”
SAS 4201Discovered in the 1730s, the classical Euler-Maclaurin formula may be viewed as a formula for summing the values of a function over the lattice points in a one-dimensional polytope. Several years ago, Berline and Vergne generalized this formula to polytopes of arbitrary dimension, obtaining a formula for the sum of a polynomial function over the…
