Accuracy optimal methods for evaluating hypersingular integrals (Q1015923)

The authors present asymptotically optimal in accuracy methods for evaluating hypersingular integrals with fixed singularities of the following type \[ I_{\varphi}={\int_{-1}^{1}\frac{\varphi(\tau)d\tau}{\tau^{\nu}},\,\,\nu=2,3,\dots;} \] \[ F_{\varphi}=\int_{-1}^{1}{\frac{\varphi(\tau)d\tau}{|\tau|^{\nu+\lambda}}},\,\,\nu=1,2,3,\dots,\,\,0<\lambda<1. \] as well as optimal in order and in accuracy methods for evaluating hypersingular integrals of the types \[ H_{\varphi}={\int_{\gamma}\frac{\varphi(\tau)}{(\tau-t)^p}d\tau},\,\,t\in\gamma,\tag{1} \] \[ T_{\varphi}={\int_{0}^{2\pi}\frac{\varphi(\sigma)}{\sin^{p}\frac{\sigma-s}{2}}d\sigma},\tag{2} \] where \(\gamma\) is the unit circle centered as the origin of the coordinate system and \(p=2,3,\dots\) and \[ K_{\varphi}={\int_{-1}^{1}\frac{\varphi(\tau)}{(\tau-t)^{p}}d\tau},\,\-1<t<1,\tag{3} \] where \(p\) is an integer, \(p=2,3,\dots.\) Denote by \(W^{r}(M)\) the set of functions defined on the \([a,b]\), which are continuous and have continuous derivatives up to and including the \((r-1)\)th order inclusively and a piecewise continuous \(r\)th order derivative that satisfies the inequality \(|f^{(r)}(x)|\leq M\) on this segment. For evaluating the integrals (1), (2) and (3), some optimal in order and in accuracy quadrature formulas are proposed and the corresponding error estimates in the set \(W^{r}(1)\) is presented. These formulas and estimates are novel. In addition, the proposed quadrature formulas for evaluating the integrals (1), (2), and (3) are easy to program. Numerical efficiency and accuracy of the methods is illustrated.
