Efficient computation of highly oscillatory integrals by using QTT tensor approximation

We propose a new method for the efficient approximation of a class of highly oscillatory weighted integrals where the oscillatory function depends on the frequency parameter $\omega \geq 0$, typically varying in a large interval. Our approach is based, for fixed but arbitrary oscillator, on the pre-computation and low-parametric approximation of certain $\omega$-dependent prototype functions whose evaluation leads in a straightforward way to recover the target integral. The difficulty that arises is that these prototype functions consist of oscillatory integrals and are itself oscillatory which makes them both difficult to evaluate and to approximate. Here we use the quantized-tensor train (QTT) approximation method for functional $m$-vectors of logarithmic complexity in $m$ in combination with a cross-approximation scheme for TT tensors. This allows the accurate approximation and efficient storage of these functions in the wide range of grid and frequency parameters. Numerical examples illustrate the efficiency of the QTT-based numerical integration scheme on various examples in one and several spatial dimensions.Comment: 20 page

Modified Filon-Clenshaw-Curtis rules for oscillatory integrals with a nonlinear oscillator

Filon-Clenshaw-Curtis rules are among rapid and accurate quadrature rules for computing highly oscillatory integrals. In the implementation of the Filon-Clenshaw-Curtis rules in the case when the oscillator function is not linear, its inverse should be evaluated at some points. In this paper, we solve this problem by introducing an approach based on the interpolation, which leads to a class of modifications of the original Filon-Clenshaw-Curtis rules. In the absence of stationary points, two kinds of modified Filon-Clenshaw-Curtis rules are introduced. For each kind, an error estimate is given theoretically, and then illustrated by some numerical experiments. Also, some numerical experiments are carried out for a comparison of the accuracy and the efficiency of the two rules. In the presence of stationary points, the idea is applied to the composite Filon-Clenshaw-Curtis rules on graded meshes. An error estimate is given theoretically, and then illustrated by some numerical experiments

A Survey Of Numerical Quadrature Methods For Highly Oscillatory Integrals

In this thesis, we examine the main types of numerical quadrature methods for a special subclass of one-dimensional highly oscillatory integrals. Along with a presentation of the methods themselves and the error bounds, the thesis contains implementations of the methods in Maple and Python. The implementations take advantage of the symbolic computational abilities of Maple and allow for a larger class of problems to be solved with greater ease to the user. We also present a new variation on Levin integration which uses differentiation matrices in various interpolation bases

An extended Filon--Clenshaw--Curtis method for high-frequency wave scattering problems in two dimensions

We study the efficient approximation of integrals involving Hankel functions of the first kind which arise in wave scattering problems on straight or convex polygonal boundaries. Filon methods have proved to be an effective way to approximate many types of highly oscillatory integrals, however finding such methods for integrals that involve non-linear oscillators and frequency-dependent singularities is subject to a significant amount of ongoing research. In this work, we demonstrate how Filon methods can be constructed for a class of integrals involving a Hankel function of the first kind. These methods allow the numerical approximation of the integral at uniform cost even when the frequency $\omega$ is large. In constructing these Filon methods we also provide a stable algorithm for computing the Chebyshev moments of the integral based on duality to spectral methods applied to a version of Bessel's equation. Our design for this algorithm has significant potential for further generalisations that would allow Filon methods to be constructed for a wide range of integrals involving special functions. These new extended Filon methods combine many favourable properties, including robustness in regard to the regularity of the integrand and fast approximation for large frequencies. As a consequence, they are of specific relevance to applications in wave scattering, and we show how they may be used in practice to assemble collocation matrices for wavelet-based collocation methods and for hybrid oscillatory approximation spaces in high-frequency wave scattering problems on convex polygonal shapes
