numerical integration - iteratively solve integral equation


Updated:


I am solving the following integral equation for f(k)


f(k)=−∬


where g(k)=k^2+f(k)


so the equation is


\small f(k)=-\iint d^2p\,d^2q\frac1{p^2+f(p)}\frac1{(p-q)^2+f(\vert p-q\vert)}\left(\frac 1{(k-q)^2+f(\vert k-q\vert)}-\frac1{q^2+f(q)}\right)


where f(k) and g(k) are isotropic functions in 2D.



Before I start numerically solving it, I am expecting that f(k) is linearly increasing at small k from (0,0) and becomes constant for large k.


Here I tried to solve it iteratively, starting with the trial function f(k)=1:


f[k_] = 1;
g[k_] = k^2 + f[k];
iterstep := (values = Table[{k, NIntegrate[-p q/
g[p]/(p^2 + q^2 - 2 p q Cos[Ï•p - Ï•q] + f[Sqrt[ p^2 + q^2 - 2 p
q Cos[Ï•p - Ï•q] ]]) (1/(k^2 + q^2 - 2 k q Cos[Ï•q] +
f[Sqrt[k^2 + q^2 - 2 k q Cos[Ï•q]]])-1/g[q]), {p, 0, 50}, {q, 0,
50}, {ϕp, 0, 2 π}, {ϕq, 0, 2 π}, Method -> "QuasiMonteCarlo",
PrecisionGoal -> 4,]}, {k, 0, 50, 10}] ;

f1[k_]= InterpolatingPolynomial[values, k];
f[x_] = Piecewise[{{f1[x], x < 50}, {f1[50], x > 50}}]
g[k_] = k^2 + f[k];)
plot := Show[Plot[f[k], {k, 0, 50}, PlotRange -> All], ListPlot[values]];

I do the integral from 0 to a cutoff 50 and evaluate f(k) at 5 points form 0 to 50 then do a fit to get new function f(k) for next step.


after 1st step:

4th step

The major problem now: iteration is not contractive. Jump between high slope to low slope to even higher and even lower. How to change the program? Another better method?


The minor problem: I want to improve numerical integral accuracy. I have been asking about related numerical integral before: Multidimensional NIntegral with singularity. Some good advices were given.

functions - Get leading series expansion term?

Given a function f[x] , I would like to have a function leadingSeries that returns just the leading term in the series around x=0 . For example: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x)] x and leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x^3)/4)/(4 + x)] -(1/(16 x^3)) Is there such a function in Mathematica? Or maybe one can implement it efficiently? EDIT I finally went with the following implementation, based on Carl Woll 's answer: lds[ex_,x_]:=( (ex/.x->(x+O[x]^2))/.SeriesData[U_,Z_,L_List,Mi_,Ma_,De_]:>SeriesData[U,Z,{L[[1]]},Mi,Mi+1,De]//Quiet//Normal) The advantage is, that this one also properly works with functions whose leading term is a constant: lds[Exp[x],x] 1 Answer Update 1 Updated to eliminate SeriesData and to not return additional terms Perhaps you could use: leadingSeries[expr_, x_] := Normal[expr /. x->(x+O[x]^2) /. a_List :> Take[a, 1]] Then for your examples: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x), x] leadingSeries[Exp[x], x] leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x...

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...

plotting - Plot 4D data with color as 4th dimension

I have a list of 4D data (x position, y position, amplitude, wavelength). I want to plot x, y, and amplitude on a 3D plot and have the color of the points correspond to the wavelength. I have seen many examples using functions to define color but my wavelength cannot be expressed by an analytic function. Is there a simple way to do this? Answer Here a another possible way to visualize 4D data: data = Flatten[Table[{x, y, x^2 + y^2, Sin[x - y]}, {x, -Pi, Pi,Pi/10}, {y,-Pi,Pi, Pi/10}], 1]; You can use the function Point along with VertexColors . Now the points are places using the first three elements and the color is determined by the fourth. In this case I used Hue, but you can use whatever you prefer. Graphics3D[ Point[data[[All, 1 ;; 3]], VertexColors -> Hue /@ data[[All, 4]]], Axes -> True, BoxRatios -> {1, 1, 1/GoldenRatio}]
