Taylor Series Revisited
Résumé
We propose a renovated approach around the use of Taylor expansions to provide polynomial approximations. We introduce a coinductive type scheme and finely-tuned operations that altogether constitute an algebra, where our multivariate Taylor expansions are first-class objects. As for applications, beyond providing classical expansions of integro-differential and algebraic expressions mixed with elementary functions, we demonstrate that solving ODE and PDE in a direct way, without external solvers, is also possible. We also discuss the possibility of computing certified errors within our scheme.
