 Error bound for one-sided differentiation

For $f\in C^2[0,1]$ and $\Vert f^{\delta }-f{\Vert }_2\le \delta$, two translated half-interval integrals have overlap multiplicity at most two. The inequality $|a-b{|}^2\le 2|a{|}^2+2|b{|}^2$ gives $\Vert D_h\Vert \le \sqrt{6}/h$. Averaging $f^{\prime }$ over the relevant interval and applying $|f^{\prime }(x+t)-f^{\prime }(x)|\le \Vert f^{\prime \prime }{\Vert }_{\infty }|t|$ gives the second term. For this to estimate a Moore–Penrose inverse of an operator, also require $f(0)=0$; otherwise the derivative is still approximated but $K^{†}f$ is not defined.
