Indefinite Integration of Function Involving Logarithmic Singularity by the Chebyshev Expansion

  • Chapter
Numerical Mathematics Singapore 1988

Abstract

An automatic integration scheme is presented for evaluating the indefinite integral of function with a logarithmic singularity \( I(x,y,c) - \int\limits_x^y f (t)1n|t - c|dt \), a ≤ x, y, c ≤ b, within a finite range [a, b] for some smooth functions f(t), whose Chebyshev series expansions over [a, b] are of rapid convergence. The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and recurrence relations are made use of to compute the Chebyshev coefficients of f(t) and to expand the indefinite integral I(x, y, c) in the Chebyshev series by using auxiliary logarithmic functions. Numerical examples illustrating the performance of the present method are given.
