Sorry, I forgot to mention, I assume some benign conditions for the function so that there always exist a lower and upper bound in the given interval (I could always pick a constant as the bounds but I want something better). Actually, the functions that I have to bound will always be of the...
Hi folks,
I have a function f(t), and I want to find 2nd order polynomials that lower/upper bound f(t) in a fixed interval. For instance,
f(t) = exp(2t), 0.1<t<0.4
Find a,b,c so that g(t) = a + b t +c t^2 <f(t) for the given interval
I have been googling for the solution, but...
