| <a class="link" href="zeta.html#math_toolkit.special.zetas.zeta.testing">Testing</a> |
| </h5> |
| <p> |
| The tests for these functions come in two parts: basic sanity checks use |
| spot values calculated using <a href="http://functions.wolfram.com/webMathematica/FunctionEvaluation.jsp?name=Zeta" target="_top">Mathworld's |
| online evaluator</a>, while accuracy checks use high-precision test |
| values calculated at 1000-bit precision with <a href="http://shoup.net/ntl/doc/RR.txt" target="_top">NTL::RR</a> |
| and this implementation. Note that the generic and type-specific versions |
| of these functions use differing implementations internally, so this gives |
| us reasonably independent test data. Using our test data to test other |
| "known good" implementations also provides an additional sanity |
| check. |
| </p> |
| <a name="math_toolkit.special.zetas.zeta.implementation"></a><h5> |
| <a name="id1142077"></a> |
| <a class="link" href="zeta.html#math_toolkit.special.zetas.zeta.implementation">Implementation</a> |
| </h5> |
| <p> |
| All versions of these functions first use the usual reflection formulas |
| to make their arguments positive: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/zeta3.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The generic versions of these functions are implemented using the series: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/zeta1.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| for large z, and using the globally convergent series: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/zeta2.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| In all other cases. The crossover point for these is chosen so that the |
| first series is used only if it will converge reasonably quickly, the problem |
| with this series is that convergence become slower the more terms you take, |
| so we really do have to be certain of convergence before using this series, |
| even though the alternative is often quite slow. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| When the significand (mantissa) size is recognised (currently for 53, 64 |
| and 113-bit reals, plus single-precision 24-bit handled via promotion to |
| double) then a series of rational approximations <a class="link" href="../../backgrounders/implementation.html#math_toolkit.backgrounders.implementation.rational_approximations_used">devised |
| by JM</a> are used. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| For 0 < z < 1 the approximating form is: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/zeta4.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| For a rational approximation R(1-z) and a constant C. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| For 1 < z < 4 the approximating form is: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/zeta5.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| For a rational approximation R(n-z) and a constant C and integer n. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| For z > 4 the approximating form is: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| ζ(z) = 1 + e<sup>R(z - n)</sup> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| For a rational approximation R(z-n) and integer n, note that the accuracy |
| required for R(z-n) is not full machine precision, but an absolute error |
| of: ε/R(0). This saves us quite a few digits when dealing with large z, |
| especially when ε is small. |
