Numerical evaluation of analytic functions by Cauchy's theorem

The use of the Cauchy theorem (instead of the Cauchy formula) in complex analysis together with numerical integration rules is proposed for the computation of analytic functions and their derivatives inside a closed contour from boundary data for the analytic function only. This approach permits a dramatical increase of the accuracy of the numerical results for points near the contour. Several theoretical results about this method are proved. Related numerical results are also displayed. The present method together with the trapezoidal quadrature rule on a circular contour is investigated from a theoretical point of view (including error bounds and corresponding asymptotic estimates), compared with the numerically competitive Lyness-Delves method and rederived by using the Theotokoglou results on the error term. Generalizations for the present method are suggested in brief.
