On the rate of convergence of the Gaver-Stehfest algorithm

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

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)o(n^{-k}) if the target function is (2k+3)(2k+3)-times differentiable at a point.
