NAME
PDL::GSL::INTEG - PDL interface to numerical integration routines in GSL
DESCRIPTION
This is an interface to the numerical integration package present in the GNU Scientific
Library, which is an implementation of QUADPACK.
Functions are named gslinteg_{algorithm} where {algorithm} is the QUADPACK naming
convention. The available functions are:
gslinteg_qng: Non-adaptive Gauss-Kronrod integration
gslinteg_qag: Adaptive integration
gslinteg_qags: Adaptive integration with singularities
gslinteg_qagp: Adaptive integration with known singular points
gslinteg_qagi: Adaptive integration on infinite interval of the form (-\infty,\infty)
gslinteg_qagiu: Adaptive integration on infinite interval of the form (a,\infty)
gslinteg_qagil: Adaptive integration on infinite interval of the form (-\infty,b)
gslinteg_qawc: Adaptive integration for Cauchy principal values
gslinteg_qaws: Adaptive integration for singular functions
gslinteg_qawo: Adaptive integration for oscillatory functions
gslinteg_qawf: Adaptive integration for Fourier integrals
Each algorithm computes an approximation to the integral, I, of the function f(x)w(x),
where w(x) is a weight function (for general integrands w(x)=1). The user provides
absolute and relative error bounds (epsabs,epsrel) which specify the following accuracy
requirement:
|RESULT - I| <= max(epsabs, epsrel |I|)
The routines will fail to converge if the error bounds are too stringent, but always
return the best approximation obtained up to that stage
All functions return the result, and estimate of the absolute error and an error flag
(which is zero if there were no problems). You are responsible for checking for any
errors, no warnings are issued unless the option {Warn => 'y'} is specified in which case
the reason of failure will be printed.
You can nest integrals up to 20 levels. If you find yourself in the unlikely situation
that you need more, you can change the value of 'max_nested_integrals' in the first line
of the file 'FUNC.c' and recompile.
Please check the GSL documentation for more information.

FUNCTIONS
gslinteg_qng() -- Non-adaptive Gauss-Kronrod integration
This function applies the Gauss-Kronrod 10-point, 21-point, 43-point and 87-point
integration rules in succession until an estimate of the integral of f over ($a,$b) is
achieved within the desired absolute and relative error limits, $epsabs and $epsrel. It
is meant for fast integration of smooth functions. It returns an array with the result, an
estimate of the absolute error, an error flag and the number of function evaluations
performed.
Usage:
($res,$abserr,$ierr,$neval) = gslinteg_qng($function_ref,$a,$b,
$epsrel,$epsabs,[{Warn => $warn}]);
Example:
my ($res,$abserr,$ierr,$neval) = gslinteg_qng(\&f,0,1,0,1e-9);
# with warnings on
my ($res,$abserr,$ierr,$neval) = gslinteg_qng(\&f,0,1,0,1e-9,{Warn => 'y'});
sub f{
my ($x) = @_;
return ($x**2.6)*log(1.0/$x);
}
gslinteg_qag() -- Adaptive integration
This function applies an integration rule adaptively until an estimate of the integral of
f over ($a,$b) is achieved within the desired absolute and relative error limits, $epsabs
and $epsrel. On each iteration the adaptive integration strategy bisects the interval with
the largest error estimate; the maximum number of allowed subdivisions is given by the
parameter $limit. The integration rule is determined by the value of $key, which has to
be one of (1,2,3,4,5,6) and correspond to the 15, 21, 31, 41, 51 and 61 point Gauss-
Kronrod rules respectively. It returns an array with the result, an estimate of the
absolute error and an error flag.
Please check the GSL documentation for more information.
Usage:
($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qag($function_ref,$a,$b,$epsrel,
$epsabs,$limit,$key,[{Warn => $warn}]);
Example:
my ($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qag(\&f,0,1,0,1e-10,1000,1);
# with warnings on
my ($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qag(\&f,0,1,0,1e-10,1000,1,{Warn => 'y'});
sub f{
my ($x) = @_;
return ($x**2.6)*log(1.0/$x);
}
gslinteg_qags() -- Adaptive integration with singularities
This function applies the Gauss-Kronrod 21-point integration rule adaptively until an
estimate of the integral of f over ($a,$b) is achieved within the desired absolute and
relative error limits, $epsabs and $epsrel. The algorithm is such that it accelerates the
convergence of the integral in the presence of discontinuities and integrable
singularities. The maximum number of allowed subdivisions done by the adaptive algorithm
must be supplied in the parameter $limit.
Please check the GSL documentation for more information.
Usage:
($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qags($function_ref,$a,$b,$epsrel,
$epsabs,$limit,[{Warn => $warn}]);
Example:
my ($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qags(\&f,0,1,0,1e-10,1000);
# with warnings on
($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qags(\&f,0,1,0,1e-10,1000,{Warn => 'y'});
sub f{
my ($x) = @_;
return ($x)*log(1.0/$x);
}
gslinteg_qagp() -- Adaptive integration with known singular points
This function applies the adaptive integration algorithm used by gslinteg_qags taking into
account the location of singular points until an estimate of the integral of f over
($a,$b) is achieved within the desired absolute and relative error limits, $epsabs and
$epsrel. Singular points are supplied in the piddle $points, whose endpoints determine
the integration range. So, for example, if the function has singular points at x_1 and
x_2 and the integral is desired from a to b (a < x_1 < x_2 < b), $points =
pdl(a,x_1,x_2,b). The maximum number of allowed subdivisions done by the adaptive
algorithm must be supplied in the parameter $limit.
Please check the GSL documentation for more information.
Usage:
($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qagp($function_ref,$points,$epsabs,
$epsrel,$limit,[{Warn => $warn}])
Example:
my $points = pdl(0,1,sqrt(2),3);
my ($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qagp(\&f,$points,0,1e-3,1000);
# with warnings on
($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qagp(\&f,$points,0,1e-3,1000,{Warn => 'y'});
sub f{
my ($x) = @_;
my $x2 = $x**2;
my $x3 = $x**3;
return $x3 * log(abs(($x2-1.0)*($x2-2.0)));
}
gslinteg_qagi() -- Adaptive integration on infinite interval
This function estimates the integral of the function f over the infinite interval
(-\infty,+\infty) within the desired absolute and relative error limits, $epsabs and
$epsrel. After a transformation, the algorithm of gslinteg_qags with a 15-point Gauss-
Kronrod rule is used. The maximum number of allowed subdivisions done by the adaptive
algorithm must be supplied in the parameter $limit.
Please check the GSL documentation for more information.
Usage:
($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qagi($function_ref,$epsabs,
$epsrel,$limit,[{Warn => $warn}]);

my ($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qagi(\&myfn,1e-7,0,1000);
# with warnings on
($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qagi(\&myfn,1e-7,0,1000,{Warn => 'y'});

my ($x) = @_;
return exp(-$x - $x*$x) ;
}
gslinteg_qagiu() -- Adaptive integration on infinite interval
This function estimates the integral of the function f over the infinite interval
(a,+\infty) within the desired absolute and relative error limits, $epsabs and $epsrel.

is used. The maximum number of allowed subdivisions done by the adaptive algorithm must
be supplied in the parameter $limit.
Please check the GSL documentation for more information.
Usage:
($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qagiu($function_ref,$a,$epsabs,
$epsrel,$limit,[{Warn => $warn}]);

# with warnings on
($res,$abserr,$ierr) = gslinteg_qagiu(\&f,99.9,1e-7,0,1000,{Warn => 'y'});
sub f{
my ($x) = @_;
if (($x==0) && ($alfa == 1)) {return 1;}
if (($x==0) && ($alfa > 1)) {return 0;}
return ($x**($alfa-1))/((1+10*$x)**2);
}
gslinteg_qagil() -- Adaptive integration on infinite interval

(-\infty,b) within the desired absolute and relative error limits, $epsabs and $epsrel.
After a transformation, the algorithm of gslinteg_qags with a 15-point Gauss-Kronrod rule

return exp($x);
}
gslinteg_qawc() -- Adaptive integration for Cauchy principal values
This function computes the Cauchy principal value of the integral of f over (a,b), with a
singularity at c, I = \int_a^b dx f(x)/(x - c). The integral is estimated within the
desired absolute and relative error limits, $epsabs and $epsrel. The maximum number of
allowed subdivisions done by the adaptive algorithm must be supplied in the parameter
$limit.

return 1.0 / (5.0 * $x * $x * $x + 6.0) ;
}
gslinteg_qaws() -- Adaptive integration for singular functions

my $u = log($x);
my $v = 1 + $u*$u;
return 1.0/($v*$v);
}
}

else{ return log($x);}
}

infinite interval [a,+\infty). Specifically, it attempts tp compute I = \int_a^{+\infty}
dx f(x)w(x), where w(x) is sin(omega*x) or cos(omega*x) -- which of sine or cosine is used
is determined by the parameter $opt ('cos' or 'sin'). The integral is estimated within
the desired absolute error limit $epsabs. The maximum number of allowed subdivisions done
by the adaptive algorithm must be supplied in the parameter $limit.
Please check the GSL documentation for more information.
