Abstract
Node elimination is a numerical approach for obtaining cubature rules for the approximation of multivariate integrals. Beginning with a known cubature rule, nodes are selected for elimination, and a new, more efficient rule is constructed by iteratively solving the moment equations. This paper introduces a new criterion for selecting which nodes to eliminate that is based on a linearization of the moment equation. In addition, a penalized iterative solver is introduced, that ensures that weights are positive and nodes are inside the integration domain. A strategy for constructing an initial cubature rule for various polytopes in several space dimensions is described. High efficiency rules are presented for two, three and four dimensional polytopes. The new rules are compared with rules that are obtained by combining tensor products of one dimensional quadrature rules and domain transformations, as well as with known analytically constructed cubature rules.
