Abstract
In many applications, function values are available only at equispaced grid points. In the case of analytic functions and grids in the complex plane, 2-D finite difference formulas become remarkably accurate already for very small stencil sizes. Their use in place of analytic derivatives in the Euler-Maclaurin formula results in highly effective computational methods for both contour integration and for numerical evaluation of fractional derivatives.
