Semi-infinite interval automatic quadrature (double exponential (DE) formula)

Purpose
This routine computes the integral of f(x) over [a, +∞], satisfying the requested accuracy, where f(x) is a given function defined by a user supplied subroutine f.
The result is obtained by the automatic integration applying the double exponential (DE) formula.

The double exponential (DE) formulas (see defint) for semi-infinite interval [0, +∞] is obtained by using the following transformation functions.
(1) φ(t) = exp(t/2 - exp(-t))
(2) φ(t) = exp(t - exp(-t))
(3) φ(t) = exp(2sinh(t))
(1) is suitable for the functions decaying very rapidly such as f(x) = f1(x)exp(-x^2). (2) is suitable for the functions with an exponential factor such as f(x) = f2(x)exp(-x). (3) is used for the slowly decaying rational or algebraic functions.
This routine will automatically choose one of the above three functions by examining the behavior of the integrand. The argument l returns which transformation function was used.
Parameters
[in]fThe user supplied subroutine which calculates the integrand function f(x) defined as follows.
double f(double x)
{
return computed f(x) value
}
[in]aLower limit of integration.
[in]epsAbsolute accuracy requested.
max(|eps|, 1.0e-32) is used as the tolerance.
[out]resultApproximation to integral of f(x) over [a, +inf].
[out]nevalNumber of integrand evaluations.
[out]lThe mapping function used to integrate.
= 0: x = exp(0.5*t-exp(-t))
= 1: x = exp(t-exp(-t))
= 2: x = exp(2*sinh(t))
[out]info= 0: Successful exit
= 1: Slow decay on negative side
= 2: Slow decay on positive side
= 3: Both of above
= 4: Insufficient mesh refinement
