Keywords: Defficient, Error Bound, Quartic Spline, Interpolation I. INTRODUCTION For smooth and more efficient approximation of function cubic and higher degree spline are popular (see Deboor [1]), As in the study of linear spline the maximum error between function and its interpolation can be controlled by mesh spacing such function have corner at the joint two linear pieces and therefore the usually require more data than higher order method to get desired accuracy. In the direction of same higher order method, we refer to Rana & Dubey [5,6], Hall & Mayer [7], the error bounds for quartic spline interpolation obtain by Howell and Verma [ 2 ] and the error bound of spline of degree six obtained by Dubey [ 3 ], (also see Meir and Sharma [9]). The purpose of this paper is to construct a spline method for solving an interpolation problem using piecewise quartic polynomial and obtain error bound. II. EXISTENCE AND UNIQUENESS Let a mesh on [0, 1] be given by P : O = x 0 < x 1 <.x n =1 with h i =x i -x i-1 for i=1, 2 n. Let S(4, p) denote the set of or all algebraic polynomial of degree 4. And s i is the restriction of s over [, ], the class s*(4, p) of deficient quantic spline is defined by S* (4, P) = {s i : s i ε c 1 [0, 1], s i ε s (4, P) for i=1, 2,..n} in S**(4, P) denotes the class of all deficient spline S * (4, P) which satisfies the boundary condition. s(x 0 ) = f(x 0 ), s(x n ) = f(x n ) (2.1) Problem 2.1 : suppose f exist over P then there a exit unique spline interpolation s ε s** (4, P) of f which satisfies interpolation conditions s( i ) = f( i ) s( i ) = f( i ) s 1 ( i ) = f 1 ( i ) (2.2) 103 P a g e

Let Q(z) be a quartic polynomial on [0, 1] then it is easy to verify that (2.3) We are now set to answer problem 2.1 in theorem 2.1 Theorem 2.1: There exist a unique deficient quartic spline in S**(4, P) which satisfies interpolatory condition ( 2.1 ) (2.2 ) Proof : Let 1 Then in view of condition (2.1) - (2.2) we now express equation (2.3 ) in terms of restriction s i of s in [x i,x i+1 ] as follows s i (x)=f( i )P 1 (t)+f( i )P 2 (t)+h i f 1 ( i )P 3 (t)+s i (x)p 4 (t)+s i+1 P 5 (t) (2.4) Since sε C 1 [a, b] we have from equation ( 2.4 ) we get Clearly matrix is diagonally dominant and hence invertible. Thus the system of equation has unique solution this completes the proof of theorem 2.1 III. ERROR BOUNDS In this section of paper error bounds e(x) = f(x) s(x) is obtained for the spline interpolation of theorem 2.1 by following approach used by Hall and Meyar. We sell denote by hi [f, x] the unique quartic acquiring with f( i ), f( i ), f ( i ), f(x i ) and f 1 (x i+1 ) and let f ε C 5 [0, 1] Now, consider a first continuously differentiable quartic spline S of theorem 2.1 we have for x i < x < x i+1 f(x) s(x) = f(x) s i (x) < f(x)-l i [f, x] + L i [f,x] - S(x) (3.1) Thus it is clear from (3.1) that in order to get the bounds of e(x) We have to estimate point wise bounds of both the terms on the right hand side of (3.1) by a well know remainder theorem of Cauchy (see Davis [8 ] we see that 104 P a g e

(3.2) F = max f (5) (x) we next proceed to obtain bounds for L i [f, x] s i (x) it follows from (2.4 ) that L i [f, x]-s i (x) < e(x i ) P 4 (t) + e(x i+1 ) P 5 (t) (3.3) Thus L i [f, x] s i (x) < e(x i ) P 4 (t) + e(x i+1 ) P 5 (t) (3.4) Since P 4 (t) = [1-9t + 29t 2 39t 3 + 18t 4 ] and 0 < t < 1 = K(t) (say) (3.5) Now using (3.5) in (3.4) we have L i [f, x] s i (x) < max { e(x i ), e(x i+1 ) } k(t) Setting e(x j ) = max e(x i ) (3.6) j=1, 2,.n-1 and h = max (h i ) (3.7) i =1, 2, n-1 we see that (3.6) may be written as L i [f, x]-s(x) < e(x j ) k(t) (3.8) First we have to find upper bound of e(x j ) Replacing s(x j ) by e(x j ) in (3.8) we get Now (3.9) (3.10) Since E(f) is a linear functional which is zero for polynomials of degree 4 or less and applying the peano theorem (see Davis [8 ]) we have (3.11) Now from (3.11) it follows that (3.12) 105 P a g e

We rewrite the expression (3.9) in the following symmetric form of x j Thus j < y < x j+1 j < y < j x j < y < j x j-1 < y < j-1 = y j-1 j-1 < y < j-1 From above expression it is follows that j-1 < y < x j E [(x-y) + 4 ] is non negative in x j-1 < y < x j+1 Thus we see that (3.13) Thus we have following from (3.12) when we apply to (3.13) (3.14) Combining (3.7) (3.9) (3.12) with (3.14) we have max e(x j ) = e j j=1, 2,..n-1 Now making use of equation (3.2) and (3.7) in (3.1) and then using (3.15) along with (3.8) we see that (3.15) (3.16) (3.17) Thus we prove the following Theorem 3.1 : Suppose S(x) is the quartic spline interpolation of theorem 2.1 and f ε c 5 [0, 1] then (3.18) k = max c(t) given by (3.17) also we have 0 < x < 1 (3.19) Equation on (3.15) and (3.17) resp. prove the inequality (3.18) and (3.19) of Theorem 3.1 we shall prove the inequality (3.18) is best possible in the limit. we can easily seen that by cauchy formula given in [4 ] that 106 P a g e

(3.20) More over for equally spaced knots, we have from (3.9) that (3.21) Consider for a moment (3.22) We have from ( 3.6 ) (3.23) Combine (3.20) and (3.23) we have (3.24) From (3.24) it is clearly observed that (3.18) is best possible provide that. We could prove that (3.25) In fact (3.25) is attained only in the limit. The difficulty will take place in the boundary condition e(x 0 ) = e(x n ) = 0 However it can be shown is that as we move many submitted away from the boundary for that we shall apply (3.21) in inductively to move away from the end condition e(x 0 ) = e(x n )=0 first step in this direction is to show that e(x j )> for j=0,..n Which can be prove by contradiction assumption. Let e(x j )<0 for some i=1, 2, n-1. Now a making use of (3.19) 4>77 this is a contradiction. Hence e(x j )>0 for j=0,.n Now from equation (3.21) Similarly e j > 0 from j=1, 2,..n-1 (3.26) 107 P a g e

Again using ( 3.26) in (3.21) We have, Repeated use of (3.21) following that (3.27) Now it can be easily see that r, h, s of And hence in the limiting case (3.28) Which verifies (3.18) inequality thus corresponding to the function (3.29) in the limit for equally spaced knot this complete the proof of theorem (3.1) REFERENCES Journal Papers [1] Deboor, C.A.
