The elementary trapezoidal rule is given by

3.5.1 $\int _{a}^{b}f(x)dx=\tfrac{1}{2}h(f(a)+f(b))-\tfrac{1}{12}h^{3}f^{{\prime\prime}}(\xi),$

where $h=b-a$ , $f\in\mathop{C^{{2}}\/}\nolimits[a,b]$ , and $a<\xi<b$ .

The composite trapezoidal rule is

3.5.2 $\displaystyle\int _{a}^{b}f(x)dx=h(\tfrac{1}{2}f_{0}+f_{1}+\dots+f_{{n-1}}+\tfrac{1}{2}f_{n})+E_{n}(f),$

In particular, when $k=\infty$ the error term is an exponentially-small function of $1/h$ , and in these circumstances the composite trapezoidal rule is exceptionally efficient. For an example see §3.5(ix).

Similar results hold for the trapezoidal rule in the form

3.5.5 $\int _{{-\infty}}^{\infty}f(t)dt=h\sum _{{k=-\infty}}^{\infty}f(kh)+E_{h}(f),$

with a function $f$ that is analytic in a strip containing $\Real$ . For further information and examples, see Goodwin (1949b). In Stenger (1993, Chapter 3) the rule (3.5.5) is considered in the framework of Sinc approximations (§3.3(vi)). See also Poisson’s summation formula (§1.8(iv)).

If $k$ in (3.5.4) is not arbitrarily large, and if odd-order derivatives of $f$ are known at the end points $a$ and $b$ , then the composite trapezoidal rule can be improved by means of the Euler–Maclaurin formula (§2.10(i)). See Davis and Rabinowitz (1984, pp. 134–142) and Temme (1996b, p. 25).

Let $h=\frac{1}{2}(b-a)$ and $f\in\mathop{C^{{4}}\/}\nolimits[a,b]$ . Then the elementary Simpson’s rule is

3.5.6 $\int _{a}^{b}f(x)dx=\tfrac{1}{3}h(f(a)+4f(\tfrac{1}{2}(a+b))+f(b))-\tfrac{1}{90}h^{5}f^{{(4)}}(\xi),$

Now let $h=(b-a)/n$ , $x_{k}=a+kh$ , and $f_{k}=f(x_{k})$ , $k=0,1,\dots,n$ . Then the composite Simpson’s rule is

3.5.7 $\int _{a}^{b}f(x)dx=\tfrac{1}{3}h(f_{0}+4f_{1}+2f_{2}+4f_{3}+2f_{4}+\cdots+4f_{{n-1}}+f_{n})+E_{n}(f),$

Further refinements are achieved by Romberg integration. If $f\in\mathop{C^{{2m+2}}\/}\nolimits[a,b]$ , then the remainder $E_{n}(f)$ in (3.5.2) can be expanded in the form

3.5.9 $E_{n}(f)=c_{1}h^{2}+c_{2}h^{4}+\dots+c_{m}h^{{2m}}+\mathop{O\/}\nolimits\!\left(h^{{2m+2}}\right),$

where $h=(b-a)/n$ . As in Simpson’s rule, by combining the rule for $h$ with that for $h/2$ , the first error term $c_{1}h^{2}$ in (3.5.9) can be eliminated. With the Romberg scheme successive terms $c_{1}h^{2},c_{2}h^{4},\dots$ , in (3.5.9) are eliminated, according to the formula

3.5.10 $G_{k}(\tfrac{1}{2}h)=G_{{k-1}}(\tfrac{1}{2}h)+\frac{G_{{k-1}}(\frac{1}{2}h)-G_{{k-1}}(h)}{4^{k}-1},$ $k\geq 1$ ,

although we may also start with the elementary rule with $G_{0}(h)=\frac{1}{2}h(f(a)+f(b))$ and $h=b-a$ . To generate $G_{k}(h)$ the quantities $G_{0}(h),G_{0}(h/2),\dots,G_{0}(h/2^{k})$ are needed. These can be found by means of the recursion

3.5.12 $G_{0}(\tfrac{1}{2}h)=\tfrac{1}{2}G_{0}(h)+\tfrac{1}{2}h\sum _{{k=0}}^{{n-1}}f\left(x_{0}+(k+\tfrac{1}{2})h\right),$

for some $\xi\in(a,b)$ . For the Bernoulli numbers $\mathop{B_{{m}}\/}\nolimits$ see §24.2(i).

When $f\in\mathop{C^{{\infty}}\/}\nolimits$ , the Romberg method affords a means of obtaining high accuracy in many cases with a relatively simple adaptive algorithm. However, as illustrated by the next example, other methods may be more efficient.

¶ Example

With $\mathop{J_{{0}}\/}\nolimits\!\left(t\right)$ denoting the Bessel function (§10.2(ii)) the integral

3.5.14 $\int _{0}^{\infty}e^{{-pt}}\mathop{J_{{0}}\/}\nolimits\!\left(t\right)dt=\frac{1}{\sqrt{p^{2}+1}}$

is computed with $p=1$ on the interval $[0,30]$ . Using (3.5.10) with $h=30/4=7.5$ we obtain $G_{7}(h)$ with 14 correct digits. About $2^{9}=512$ function evaluations are needed. (With the 20-point Gauss–Laguerre formula (§3.5(v)) the same precision can be achieved with 15 function evaluations.) With $j=2$ and $k=7$ , the coefficient of the derivative $f^{{(16)}}(\xi)$ in (3.5.13) is found to be $(0.14\dots)\times 10^{{-13}}$ .

See Davis and Rabinowitz (1984, pp. 440–441) for modifications of the Romberg method when the function $f$ is singular.

An interpolatory quadrature rule

3.5.15 $\int _{a}^{b}f(x)w(x)dx=\sum _{{k=1}}^{n}w_{k}f(x_{k})+E_{n}(f),$

with weight function $w(x)$ , is one for which $E_{n}(f)=0$ whenever $f$ is a polynomial of degree $\leq n-1$ . The nodes $x_{1},x_{2},\dots,x_{n}$ are prescribed, and the weights $w_{k}$ and error term $E_{n}(f)$ are found by integrating the product of the Lagrange interpolation polynomial of degree $n-1$ and $w(x)$ .

If the extreme members of the set of nodes $x_{1},x_{2},\dots,x_{n}$ are the endpoints $a$ and $b$ , then the quadrature rule is said to be closed. Or if the set $x_{1},x_{2},\dots,x_{n}$ lies in the open interval $(a,b)$ , then the quadrature rule is said to be open.

Rules of closed type include the Newton–Cotes formulas such as the trapezoidal rules and Simpson’s rule. Examples of open rules are the Gauss formulas (§3.5(v)), the midpoint rule, and Fejér’s quadrature rule. For the latter $a=-1$ , $b=1$ , and the nodes $x_{k}$ are the extrema of the Chebyshev polynomial $\mathop{T_{{n}}\/}\nolimits\!\left(x\right)$ (§3.11(ii) and §18.3). If we add −1 and 1 to this set of $x_{k}$ , then the resulting closed formula is the frequently-used Clenshaw–Curtis formula, whose weights are positive and given by

3.5.16 $w_{k}=\frac{g_{k}}{n}\left(1-\sum _{{j=1}}^{{\left\lfloor n/2\right\rfloor}}\frac{b_{j}}{4j^{2}-1}\mathop{\cos\/}\nolimits\!\left(2jk\pi/n\right)\right),$

§3.5(v) Gauss Quadrature

Notes:: In this subsection all numerical values of the nodes $x_{k}$ and corresponding weights $w_{k}$ that appear in the tables in the text and on the Web site can be computed, for example, by means of the quadruple-precision analogs of the softwares recur and gauss given in Gautschi (1994), or in the case of the tables for the logarithmic weight function with recur replaced by cheb, also provided in Gautschi (1994). The three softwares can be used for other values of $n$ , and other values of the parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$ that appear in some of the weight functions.

Let $\{ p_{n}\}$ denote the set of monic polynomials $p_{n}$ of degree $n$ (coefficient of $x^{n}$ equal to 1) that are orthogonal with respect to a positive weight function $w$ on a finite or infinite interval $(a,b)$ ; compare §18.2(i). In Gauss quadrature (also known as Gauss–Christoffel quadrature) we use (3.5.15) with nodes $x_{k}$ the zeros of $p_{n}$ , and weights $w_{k}$ given by

3.5.18 $w_{k}=\int _{a}^{b}\frac{p_{n}(x)}{(x-x_{k})p^{{\mspace{1.0mu}\prime}}_{n}(x_{k})}\, w(x)dx.$

and $\xi$ is some point in $(a,b)$ . As a consequence, the rule is exact for polynomials of degree $\leq 2n-1$ .

In practical applications the weight function $w(x)$ is chosen to simulate the asymptotic behavior of the integrand as the endpoints are approached. For $\mathop{C^{{\infty}}\/}\nolimits$ functions Gauss quadrature can be very efficient. In adaptive algorithms the evaluation of the nodes and weights may cause difficulties, unless exact values are known.

For the derivation of Gauss quadrature formulas see Gautschi (2004, pp. 22–32), Gil et al. (2007a, §5.3), and Davis and Rabinowitz (1984, §§2.7 and 3.6). Stroud and Secrest (1966) includes computational methods and extensive tables. For further extensions, applications, and computation of orthogonal polynomials and Gauss-type formulas, see Gautschi (1994, 1996, 2004). For effective testing of Gaussian quadrature rules see Gautschi (1983).

For the classical orthogonal polynomials related to the following Gauss rules, see §18.3. The given quantities $\gamma _{n}$ follow from (18.2.5), (18.2.7), Table 18.3.1, and the relation $\gamma _{n}=\ifrac{h_{n}}{k_{n}^{2}}$ .

can be computed by Filon’s rule. See Davis and Rabinowitz (1984, pp. 146–168).

Oscillatory integral transforms are treated in Wong (1982) by a method based on Gaussian quadrature. A comparison of several methods, including an extension of the Clenshaw–Curtis formula (§3.5(iv)), is given in Evans and Webster (1999).

For computing infinite oscillatory integrals, Longman’s method may be used. The integral is written as an alternating series of positive and negative subintegrals that are computed individually; see Longman (1956). Convergence acceleration schemes, for example Levin’s transformation (§3.9(v)), can be used when evaluating the series. Further methods are given in Clendenin (1966) and Lyness (1985).

A frequent problem with contour integrals is heavy cancellation, which occurs especially when the value of the integral is exponentially small compared with the maximum absolute value of the integrand. To avoid cancellation we try to deform the path to pass through a saddle point in such a way that the maximum contribution of the integrand is derived from the neighborhood of the saddle point. For example, steepest descent paths can be used; see §2.4(iv).

In (3.5.35) take $s=1$ and $f(\zeta)=e^{{-2\lambda\sqrt{\zeta}}}$ , with $\lambda>0$ . When $\lambda$ is large the integral becomes exponentially small, and application of the quadrature rule of §3.5(viii) is useless. In fact from (7.14.4) and the inversion formula for the Laplace transform (§1.14(iii)) we have

3.5.42 $\mathop{\mathrm{erfc}\/}\nolimits\lambda=\frac{1}{2\pi i}\int _{{c-i\infty}}^{{c+i\infty}}e^{{\zeta-2\lambda\sqrt{\zeta}}}\frac{d\zeta}{\zeta},$ $c>0$ ,

The steepest descent path is given by $\imagpart{(t-2\sqrt{t})}=0$ , or in polar coordinates $t=re^{{i\theta}}$ we have $r={\mathop{\sec\/}\nolimits^{{2}}}\!\left(\frac{1}{2}\theta\right)$ . Thus

3.5.45 $\mathop{\mathrm{erfc}\/}\nolimits\lambda=\frac{e^{{-\lambda^{2}}}}{2\pi}\int _{{-\pi}}^{{\pi}}e^{{-\lambda^{2}{\mathop{\tan\/}\nolimits^{{2}}}\!\left(\frac{1}{2}\theta\right)}}d\theta.$

The integrand can be extended as a periodic $\mathop{C^{{\infty}}\/}\nolimits$ function on $\Real$ with period $2\pi$ and as noted in §3.5(i), the trapezoidal rule is exceptionally efficient in this case.

Table 3.5.20 gives the results of applying the composite trapezoidal rule (3.5.2) with step size $h$ ; $n$ indicates the number of function values in the rule that are larger than $10^{{-15}}$ (we exploit the fact that the integrand is even). All digits shown in the approximation in the final row are correct.

A second example is provided in Gil et al. (2001), where the method of contour integration is used to evaluate Scorer functions of complex argument (§9.12). See also Gil et al. (2003b).

If $f$ is meromorphic, with poles near the saddle point, then the foregoing method can be modified. A special case is the rule for Hilbert transforms (§1.14(v)):

3.5.46 $\mathop{\mathcal{H}\/}\nolimits\left(f;x\right)=\frac{1}{\pi}\pvint _{{-\infty}}^{\infty}\frac{f(t)}{t-x}dt,$ $x\in\Real$ ,

where the integral is the Cauchy principal value. See Kress and Martensen (1970).

Other contour integrals occur in standard integral transforms or their inverses, for example, Hankel transforms (§10.22(v)), Kontorovich–Lebedev transforms (§10.43(v)), and Mellin transforms (§1.14(iv)).

For these results and further information on cubature formulas see Cools (2003).

For integrals in higher dimensions, Monte Carlo methods are another—often the only—alternative. The standard Monte Carlo method samples points uniformly from the integration region to estimate the integral and its error. In more advanced methods points are sampled from a probability distribution, so that they are concentrated in regions that make the largest contribution to the integral. With $N$ function values, the Monte Carlo method aims at an error of order $1/\sqrt{N}$ , independently of the dimension of the domain of integration. See Davis and Rabinowitz (1984, pp. 384–417) and Schürer (2004).
