Abstract

If the real-valued mappingf has a representation of the formf(x)=f(c)+(x-c) n h(x), xεX, then we introduce an interval expression which approximates the range of values off over the compact intervalX with ordern+1. The well known centered form is the special casen=1 of this result.

Zusammenfassung

Für den Fall, daßf eine Darstellung der Formf(x)=f(c)+(x-c) n h(x), xεX, besitzt, geben wir eine intervallmäßige Auswertung an, die den Wertebereich über dem kompakten IntervalX mit der Ordnungn+1 approximiert. Fürn=1 erhält man die bekannten Aussagen über die zentrierte Form.
