Integration of function in a region

In summary, the conversation is about calculating convolution-like integrations using cos(x) and sin(x) functions. The speaker suggests transforming the coordinates into curvilinear coordinates to simplify the integration region, but is unsure how to do so. Another speaker suggests using exponential functions to simplify the integration. The main difficulty in the calculation is that the integration for x is over a y-dependent range, making the integration for y more complicated.

Dear All,

I want to calculate some convolution like integrations:
[itex]g_1(k,l)=\int\int_A \cos(k(x+y))\cos(ly) f(x,y)dx dy[/itex]
[itex]g_2(k,l)=\int\int_A \cos(k(x+y))\sin(ly) f(x,y)dx dy[/itex]
[itex]g_3(k,l)=\int\int_A \sin(k(x+y))\cos(ly) f(x,y)dx dy[/itex]
[itex]g_4(k,l)=\int\int_A \sin(k(x+y))\sin(ly) f(x,y)dx dy[/itex][itex] f(x,y) =\cos(k(x-x_0)) \cos(l(y-y_0)) - b [/itex]

[itex] |x-x_0|< \pi/k, |y-y_0|< \pi/l [/itex]

[itex]k,l[/itex] are integers, and [itex]x_0,y_0,b [/itex] are constant real numbers, [itex]0<b<1[/itex]. Region A is the area where [itex]f(x,y)\geq 0[/itex].

I thought about transforming the coordinate into curvilinear coordinate, so that the two base vectors are tangent and normal to the line [itex] f(x,y) [/itex]. But I don't know how to derive.

Can anyone provide some help and guidance? Thanks!

It is much simpler in terms of exponentials, for example write [itex]cos(x)=(e^{ix}+e^{-ix})/2[/itex]

Using your idea, define [itex]u=(e^{ik(x-x_0)+il(y-y0)}+e^{-ik(x-x_0)-il(y-y0)})/2[/itex] and [itex]v=(e^{-ik(x-x_0)-il(y-y0)}+e^{-ik(x-x_0)+il(y-y0)})/2[/itex], then the intergration region A looks simpler: [itex] A: u+v>b[/itex] , but then [itex]\cos(k(x+y))\cos(ly)[/itex] is not possible to write as a function of u and v.Is there other transform help to have a better shape of region A?
The main difficulty to directly calculate the double integration is that when I break the double integration into two 1-d integration, first x then y, then the integration for x is over a y dependent range, and this in turn makes the integration for y very complicated.

1. What is the concept of integration in a region?

The concept of integration in a region is a mathematical technique used to find the total value of a function over a certain region. It involves dividing the region into smaller parts and adding up the contributions from each part to find the overall value of the function.

2. How is integration of function in a region useful?

Integration of function in a region is useful in many areas of science and engineering, such as physics, economics, and statistics. It allows for the calculation of important quantities, such as area, volume, average value, and total value, which can provide valuable information for decision making and problem solving.

3. What are the different methods of integration in a region?

Some common methods of integration in a region include the Riemann sum, the trapezoidal rule, and Simpson's rule. These methods use different approaches to approximate the value of a function over a given region and have varying levels of accuracy.

4. Can integration of function in a region be applied to multidimensional problems?

Yes, integration of function in a region can be applied to multidimensional problems. In these cases, the region is divided into smaller volumes instead of smaller areas, and the contributions from each volume are summed to find the overall value of the function.

5. What are some real-world applications of integration of function in a region?

Integration of function in a region has many real-world applications, such as calculating the total revenue or profit for a business, determining the average temperature in a region, and finding the total force or work done in a physical system. It is also commonly used in image processing and data analysis to extract valuable information from images and data sets.
