چکیده

We show that a variety of trigonometric sums have unexpected closed forms by relating them to cognate integrals. 1 Motivation Recall that sinc(x) := sin(x)/x when x 6= 0 and sinc(0) := 1. In [4] and [8], it was shown that, for N = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, ∫ ∞

Fast Evaluation of Feynman Diagrams

We develop a new representation for the integrals associated with Feynman diagrams. This leads directly to a novel method for the numerical evaluation of these integrals, which avoids the use of Monte Carlo techniques. Our approach is based on based on the theory of generalized sinc (sin(x)/x) functions, from which we derive an approximation to the propagator that is expressed as an infinite su...

Functions of Difference Matrices Are Toeplitz Plus Hankel

When the heat equation and wave equation are approximated by ut = −Ku and utt = −Ku (discrete in space), the solution operators involve e−Kt, √K, cos(√Kt), and sinc( √ Kt). We compute these four matrices and find accurate approximations with a variety of boundary conditions. The second difference matrix K is Toeplitz (shift-invariant) for Dirichlet boundary conditions, but we show why e−Kt also...

Some Remarkable Properties of Sinc and Related Integrals

Using Fourier transform techniques, we establish inequalities for integrals of the form ∫ ∞ 0 n ∏ k=0 sin(ak x) ak x dx . We then give quite striking closed form evaluations of such integrals and finish by discussing various extensions and applications.

Error estimates with explicit constants for Sinc approximation, Sinc quadrature and Sinc indefinite integration

Error estimates with explicit constants are given for approximations of functions, definite integrals and indefinite integrals by means of the Sinc approximation. Although in the literature various estimates have already been given for these approximations, they were basically for examining the rates of convergence, and several constants were left unevaluated. Giving more explicit estimates, i....

Fermions, Gauge Theories, and the Sinc Function Representation for Feynman Diagrams

We extend our new approach for numeric evaluation of Feynman diagrams to integrals that include fermionic and vector propagators. In this initial discussion we begin by deriving the Sinc function representation for the propagators of spin1 2 and spin-1 fields and exploring their properties. We show that the attributes of the spin-0 propagator which allowed us to derive the Sinc function represe...
