Singular quadrature rules and fast convolutions for Fourier spectral methods

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present a generic scheme to construct corrected trapezoidal rules with spectral accuracy for integral operators with weakly singular kernels in arbitrary dimensions. We assume that the kernel factorization of the form, K=αϕ+K~K=αϕ+\widetilde{K} with smooth αα and K~\widetilde{K}, is available so that the operations on the smooth factors can be performed accurately on the basis of standard Fourier spectral methods. To achieve high precision results, our approach utilizes the exact evaluation of the Fourier coefficients of the radial singularity ϕϕ, which can be obtained in arbitrary dimensions by the singularity isolation/truncation described in this article. We provide a complete set of formulas for singularities of the type: log⁡(r)\log(r) and r−νr^{-ν}. Convergence analysis shows that the constructed quadrature rules exhibit almost identical rate of convergence to the trapezoidal rule applied for non-singular integrands. Especially, for smooth data, the corrected trapezoidal rules converge super-algebraically.
