I need to compute a complicated multiple integral for a large set of different parameters. The integral is over infinite space. I can solve the problem by using generalised (6 dimensions) Spherical Coordinates, which reduces the number of integration variables that go to infinity to the radius. Now I have a problem that can be integrated in five dimensions with Vegas, where the function integrated
by Vegas is computed as a Fourier Integral along a radius vector.
Since Vegas is a Monte Carlo method, it is certainly not profitable to compute the Fourier Integral to too high accuracy. I need to estimate, using a rough initial Vegas estimate of the integral, what absolute and relative accuracy
I need to use in computing the Fourier Integral.
In particular I need to estimate these as a function of the Accuracy I want in the final Vegas estimate of the integral.
Any Ideas?
