Numerical Evaluation Of the Oscillatory Integral over exp(i*pi*x)*x(1/x) between 1 and infinity

Original · EN

Real and imaginary part of the limit 2N->infinity of the integral intₓ₌₁..₂ₙ exp(i*pi*x)*x(1/x) dx are evaluated to 20 digits with brute force methods after multiple partial integration, or combining a standard Simpson integration over the first halve wave with series acceleration techniques for the alternating series co-phased to each of its points. The integrand is of the logarithmic kind; its branch cut limits the performance of integration techniques that rely on smooth higher order derivatives.
