We present errors of quadrature rules for the nearly singular integrals in the momentum-space bound-state equations and give the critical value of the nearly singular parameter. We give error estimates for the expansion method, the Nyström method, and the spectral method which arise from the near singularities in the momentum-space bound-state equations. We show the relations amongst the near singularities, the odd phenomena in the eigenfunctions, and the unreliability of the numerical solutions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
