Sinc numerical methods

In numerical analysis and applied mathematics, sinc numerical methods are numerical techniques[1] for finding approximate solutions of partial differential equations and integral equations based on the translates of sinc function and Cardinal function C(f,h) which is an expansion of f defined by

where the step size h>0 and where the sinc function is defined by

Sinc approximation methods excel for problems whose solutions may have singularities, or infinite domains, or boundary layers.

The truncated Sinc expansion of f is defined by the following series:

.

Sinc numerical methods cover

  • function approximation,
  • approximation of derivatives,
  • approximate definite and indefinite integration,
  • approximate solution of initial and boundary value ordinary differential equation (ODE) problems,
  • approximation and inversion of Fourier and Laplace transforms,
  • approximation of Hilbert transforms,
  • approximation of definite and indefinite convolution,
  • approximate solution of partial differential equations,
  • approximate solution of integral equations,
  • construction of conformal maps.

Indeed, Sinc are ubiquitous for approximating every operation of calculus

In the standard setup of the sinc numerical methods, the errors (in big O notation) are known to be with some c>0, where n is the number of nodes or bases used in the methods. However, Sugihara[2] has recently found that the errors in the Sinc numerical methods based on double exponential transformation are with some k>0, in a setup that is also meaningful both theoretically and practically and are found to be best possible in a certain mathematical sense.

gollark: There's "feedforward CLIP VQGAN" or something which is *much* faster but worse.
gollark: Anyway, excluding the tensor cores and VRAM, standard colab's T4s are worse than a 1080 Ti. The K80 is worse than most recent things and you often get those now.
gollark: If you use it heavily you may as well just buy a P100 on eBay, they're "just" £600 or so now.
gollark: It's worse now! There's a Pro+ for 5 times as much and Pro people mostly get T4s.
gollark: 700-series, not 1000.
