Abstract

This paper represents a new method for obtaining an asymptotic representation for integrals of the form when p is large. It is shown that if f(x) satisfies certain conditions this representation is also convergent. Numerical calculations seem to show that the first term of the representation gives a close approximation to the value of the integral for a wide range of values of p.
