SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating convolution-like integrations of the form g_1(k,l), g_2(k,l), g_3(k,l), and g_4(k,l) using the function f(x,y) = cos(k(x-x_0)) cos(l(y-y_0)) - b, where k and l are integers, and x_0, y_0, and b are constants. The integration region A is defined as the area where f(x,y) ≥ 0. The author seeks guidance on transforming coordinates into curvilinear coordinates to simplify the integration process, particularly in handling the dependency of integration limits on the variable y. The discussion highlights the complexity of breaking down the double integration into one-dimensional integrations due to variable-dependent limits.

Dear All,

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

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

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

I thought about transforming the coordinate into curvilinear coordinate, so that the two base vectors are tangent and normal to the line f(x,y). 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 cos(x)=(e^{ix}+e^{-ix})/2
 
Using your idea, define u=(e^{ik(x-x_0)+il(y-y0)}+e^{-ik(x-x_0)-il(y-y0)})/2 and v=(e^{-ik(x-x_0)-il(y-y0)}+e^{-ik(x-x_0)+il(y-y0)})/2, then the intergration region A looks simpler: A: u+v>b , but then \cos(k(x+y))\cos(ly) 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.
