This paper addresses the numerical evaluation of highly oscillatory integrals by developing a spectral Galerkin–Levin approach that efficiently solves Levin’s differential equation formulation for such integrals. The method employs Legendre polynomials as basis functions to approximate the solution, leveraging their orthogonality and favorable numerical properties. A key finding is that the Galerkin–Levin formulation is invariant with respect to the choice of polynomial basis—be it monomials or classical orthogonal polynomials—although the use of Legendre polynomials leads to a more straightforward derivation of practical quadrature rules. Building on this, this paper derives a simple and efficient numerical quadrature for both scalar and matrix-valued highly oscillatory integrals. The proposed approach is computationally stable and well-conditioned, overcoming the limitations of collocation-based methods. Several numerical examples validate the method’s high accuracy, stability, and computational efficiency. Full article

The paper demonstrates symmetric integral operator and interpolation based numerical approximations for linear and nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with oscillatory factor $x^{\prime }=\psi \left(x\right)+{\chi }_{\omega }\left(t\right)$, where the function ${\chi }_{\omega }\left(t\right)$ is an oscillatory forcing term. These equations appear in a variety of computational problems occurring in Fourier analysis, computational harmonic analysis, fluid dynamics, electromagnetics, and quantum mechanics. Classical methods such as Runge–Kutta methods etc. fail to approximate the oscillatory ODEs due the existence of oscillatory term ${\chi }_{\omega }\left(t\right)$. Two types of methods are presented to approximate highly oscillatory ODEs. The first method uses radial basis function interpolation, and then quadrature rules are used to evaluate the integral part of the solution equation. The second approach is more generic and can approximate highly oscillatory and nonoscillatory initial value problems. Accordingly, the first-order initial value problem with oscillatory forcing term is transformed into highly oscillatory integral equation. The transformed symmetric oscillatory integral equation is then evaluated numerically by the Levin collocation method. Finally, the nonlinear form of the initial value problems with an oscillatory forcing term is converted into a linear form using Bernoulli’s transformation. The resulting linear oscillatory problem is then computed by the Levin method. Results of the proposed methods are more reliable and accurate than some state-of-the-art methods such as asymptotic method, etc. The improved results are shown in the numerical section.

An adaptive splitting algorithm was implemented for numerical evaluation of Fourier-type highly oscillatory integrals involving stationary point. Accordingly, a modified Levin collocation method was coupled with multi-resolution quadratures in order to tackle the stationary point and irregular oscillations of the integrand caused by $\omega$ . Some test problems are included to verify the accuracy of the proposed methods. Full article
