Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund inequalities for scattered data on polygons

Abstract

Given a set of scattered points on a regular or irregular 2D polygon, we aim to employ them as quadrature points to construct a quadrature rule that establishes Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund inequalities on this polygon. The quadrature construction is aided by Bernstein--B\'{e}zier polynomials. For this purpose, we first propose a quadrature rule on triangles with an arbitrary degree of exactness and establish Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund estimates for 3-, 10-, and 21-point quadrature rules on triangles. Based on the 3-point quadrature rule on triangles, we then propose the desired quadrature rule on the polygon that satisfies Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund inequalities for $1\leq p \leq \infty$. As a byproduct, we provide error analysis for both quadrature rules on triangles and polygons. Numerical results further validate our construction.
