On the rate of convergence of the Gaver-Stehfest algorithm

The Gaver-Stehfest algorithm is widely used for numerical inversion of Laplace transform. In this paper we provide the first rigorous study of the rate of convergence of the Gaver-Stehfest algorithm. We prove that Gaver-Stehfest approximations converge exponentially fast if the target function is analytic in a neighbourhood of a point and they converge at a rate $o(n^{-k})$ if the target function is $(2k+3)$-times differentiable at a point.
