Efficient application of the Chiarella and Reichel series approximation of the complex error function

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

Using the theorem of residues Chiarella and Reichel derived a series that can be represented in terms of the complex error function (CEF). Here we show a simple derivation of this CEF series by Fourier expansion of the exponential function exp⁡(−τ2/4)\exp ({- {τ^2}/4}). Such approach explains the existence of the lower bound for the input parameter y=Im⁡[z]y = \operatorname{Im} [z] restricting the application of the CEF approximation. An algorithm resolving this problem for accelerated computation of the CEF with sustained high accuracy is proposed.
