Convergence acceleration of alternating series

Abstract

We propose a new simple convergence acceleration method for wide range class of convergent alternating series. It has some common features with Smith's and Ford's modification of Levin's and Weniger's sequence transformations, but its computational and memory cost is lower. We compare all three methods and give some common theoretical results. Numerical examples confirm a similar performance of all of them.
