    Analytical computation of Bose-Einstein integral functions

    Get PDF
    The study of Bose-Einstein integral functions is important in the fact that such functions arise in various numerical calculations of different domains of physics. The significance of gamma function and Riemann zeta function in solving such integrals has been studied and functional equations are evaluated thereby enabling the integrals of all orders to be calculated

    High-precision computation of uniform asymptotic expansions for special functions

    Get PDF
    In this dissertation, we investigate new methods to obtain uniform asymptotic expansions for the numerical evaluation of special functions to high-precision. We shall first present the theoretical and computational fundamental aspects required for the development and ultimately implementation of such methods. Applying some of these methods, we obtain efficient new convergent and uniform expansions for numerically evaluating the confluent hypergeometric functions and the Lerch transcendent at high-precision. In addition, we also investigate a new scheme of computation for the generalized exponential integral, obtaining on the fastest and most robust implementations in double-precision floating-point arithmetic. In this work, we aim to combine new developments in asymptotic analysis with fast and effective open-source implementations. These implementations are comparable and often faster than current open-source and commercial stateof-the-art software for the evaluation of special functions.Esta tesis presenta nuevos métodos para obtener expansiones uniformes asintóticas, para la evaluación numérica de funciones especiales en alta precisión. En primer lugar, se introducen fundamentos teóricos y de carácter computacional necesarios para el desarrollado y posterior implementación de tales métodos. Aplicando varios de dichos métodos, se obtienen nuevas expansiones uniformes convergentes para la evaluación numérica de las funciones hipergeométricas confluentes y de la función transcendental de Lerch. Por otro lado, se estudian nuevos esquemas de computo para evaluar la integral exponencial generalizada, desarrollando una de las implementaciones más eficientes y robustas en aritmética de punto flotante de doble precisión. En este trabajo, se combinan nuevos desarrollos en análisis asintótico con implementaciones rigurosas, distribuidas en código abierto. Las implementaciones resultantes son comparables, y en ocasiones superiores, a las soluciones comerciales y de código abierto actuales, que representan el estado de la técnica en el campo de la evaluación de funciones especiales

    The exponentially convergent trapezoidal rule

    Get PDF
    It is well known that the trapezoidal rule converges geometrically when applied to analytic functions on periodic intervals or the real line. The mathematics and history of this phenomenon are reviewed and it is shown that far from being a curiosity, it is linked with computational methods all across scientific computing, including algorithms related to inverse Laplace transforms, special functions, complex analysis, rational approximation, integral equations, and the computation of functions and eigenvalues of matrices and operators

    Generalized averaged Gaussian quadrature and applications

    Get PDF
    A simple numerical method for constructing the optimal generalized averaged Gaussian quadrature formulas will be presented. These formulas exist in many cases in which real positive GaussKronrod formulas do not exist, and can be used as an adequate alternative in order to estimate the error of a Gaussian rule. We also investigate the conditions under which the optimal averaged Gaussian quadrature formulas and their truncated variants are internal
