A generalization of general two-point formula with applications in numerical integration

We derive a general two-point integral quadrature formula using the concept of harmonic polynomials. An improved version of Guessab and Schmeisser’s result is given with new integral inequalities involving functions whose derivatives belong to various classes of functions (LpLp spaces, convex, concave, bounded functions). Furthermore, several special cases of polynomials are considered, and the generalization of well-known two-point quadrature formulae, such as trapezoid, perturbed trapezoid, two-point Newton–Cotes formula, two-point Maclaurin formula, midpoint, are obtained.
