How statement and proof provenance work
The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.
- Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
- AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
- AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.
These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

2 · Summary
Objective
For , continuous complex amplitude , real phase , and nonzero real frequency , this page defines . Its nonstationary branch assumes . The local operator gives the complete repeated integration-by-parts endpoint expansion and explicit remainder.
The Filon procedure interpolates at distinct nodes including both endpoints, then combines the interpolation values with exact or certified phase moments. Exact Fourier moments are computed by a finite recurrence. For a general nonstationary phase, the page returns a moment expansion together with a derivative-based remainder certificate. The proved endpoint-interpolation error is for fixed data and exact moments; moment approximation adds its own explicit error budget.
The Levin procedure collocates . On a nonsingular collocation branch it returns the endpoint difference , obtained directly by differentiating . Its residual theorem controls the continuous residual integral through nonstationary derivative bounds and includes (equivalently the collocation condition number) for both coefficient size and solve residual amplification. All statements use exact arithmetic; the required finite-precision-direct-factorizations page supplies separate rounded residual tools.
At one simple interior stationary point, a local Morse coordinate reduces the phase to a signed quadratic. The Fresnel moment gives the leading term, the proof controls the remainder, and a separate nonstationary calculation retains the endpoint term. Stationary endpoints and coalescing points are outside this branch and require separate endpoint or Airy-type analysis. The declared composite-quadrature-rules prerequisite is retained as page-level context; no composite-rule theorem is a logical premise of this pair.

The product is continuous, so both component integrals exist by A continuous function on is Riemann integrable, by Heine-Cantor and Riemann's criterion. A function is in when it and its derivatives through order are continuous on , with one-sided endpoint derivatives. A phase is nonstationary on when and everywhere for some fixed . For such a phase and differentiable , put and whenever that derivative exists.

Proof
Write . For finite , the substitution in [F1] gives ; letting and using [F17] shows that the real Gaussian majorant has finite one-sided integrals. Since by [F20], [F42] gives absolute convergence of each real and imaginary tail; [F37] and [F39] specify these one-sided limits and [F38] defines their two-sided sum . By [F18], every finite-interval complex integral exists; the cut-additivity clause of [F15], applied componentwise at , shows . On , the integrand is continuous by Euler's formula [F20], differentiability and continuity of sine, cosine and the real exponential [F21], [F22], [F25], and polynomial continuity [F32]; also by [F19]. Its real and imaginary parts are integrable by [F14]. Expanding the complex product into four real products, applying [F16] to each, using the complex-coordinate formulas [F35], and using linearity [F15] yields .
Put and . On and , the polar map has determinant by [F21] and [F5]. Each rectangle has an open rectangular neighborhood with positive radial coordinate and angular width strictly below . If two points there have the same image, equal Euclidean norms give equal radii; after division by that radius, their trigonometric pairs agree. [F2] then gives sine of the angle difference zero and cosine equal to one. By [F3], the difference is ; repeated use of [F4], with evenness from [F5] when , gives cosine , so is even. The neighborhood's angular width below forces the difference to be zero. Thus each map is injective on a neighborhood and its derivative is invertible there because the determinant is positive. By [F30], every point in the upper half-annulus has a canonical polar angle in ; if the second coordinate is positive, [F6], [F5], and [F3] rule out an angle in , while if it is zero [F3] leaves only or . For a lower-half point with negative second coordinate, its canonical angle is in by the same sign facts, and subtracting places it in without changing its trigonometric pair; points with zero second coordinate use angle or . These arguments prove that the images are exactly the upper and lower closed half-annuli. For , their curved boundary arcs are graphs of ; the radicand is continuous by [F32], and for nonnegative one has by [F26] and algebra, proving continuity of those graphs. Each radial segment is a constant-function graph after exchanging coordinates if needed. Each graph has content zero by [F8]; their finite unions do as well by combining finite covers from [F9]. Thus the half-annuli are bounded with content-zero boundary and hence Jordan by [F11]; they are compact by [F10]. Now apply [F1] separately to the real and imaginary parts on each. By componentwise Fubini [F16], each transformed integral is . Writing and differentiating the Euler representation with [F20]--[F24] gives ; componentwise [F29] therefore evaluates this radial integral as . Their intersection is two radial segments, content-zero by the same graph argument. On a bounding rectangle, the zero extensions of the two half-annulus integrands sum to the annulus integrand off those segments and to twice it on them; [F12] removes this content-zero difference, while linearity [F15] adds the componentwise integrals. Thus . The same circle-graph argument makes compact Jordan; [F14] integrates the continuous real and imaginary parts there. For , [F20] and [F33] give ; the containing square has area by [F34], and [F13], [F15], [F40] give . On the containing square, the zero extensions over and sum to off the boundary circle and to on it; [F12] removes this content-zero difference and linearity [F15] gives . Letting therefore gives .
Set . It is closed and bounded, hence compact by [F10]; its boundary is contained in . The square boundary is a finite union of line graphs and the circle boundary is the pair of continuous semicircle graphs proved in step 1.2, so [F8] and [F9] make this union content zero and [F11] makes Jordan. Both and are compact Jordan subsets of , so their zero extensions are integrable by [F13] and [F14]. On these extensions sum to off and to on the content-zero circle; [F12] and linearity [F15] therefore give . Every point of has , so or . Put and ; by [F37] and the convergent nonnegative improper Gaussian integral [F17]. By [F19], the majorant factors as . On finite bounding rectangles, [F13], [F15], and [F16] bound its integral over the vertical and horizontal tail strips by . For , [F40] bounds the complex integral's modulus by the integral of , so it is at most . The integrand is continuous on the compact Jordan set , so its components are integrable by [F14]. Passing to the one-dimensional Gaussian tail limits preserves this bound. It tends to zero, so the square and disc integrals have the same limit. Also : [F33] makes this nonnegative function decreasing in , and a positive limiting lower bound would contradict the finite Gaussian integral [F1], [F17]. Steps 1.1 and 1.2, with , now give .
The function is continuous on the right half-plane. Fix a compact neighborhood with . On , differentiating in by [F20]--[F24] and applying [F29] gives . By [F40], the finite-interval contribution to is therefore at most . Each omitted tail is bounded by , which tends to zero as by [F37], [F39], and the scaled Gaussian integral [F1], [F17]; choosing and then proves continuity. To justify the branch continuously, write , , , and . For nonnegative , , so [F26] and [F32] make continuous. Also and since , hence . Let from [F31]. Since , . On , [F4] writes by [F5], [F6]; on , put and use period , oddness, and [F6] to get . Hence . Then the specified square root has positive real part because its argument is and cosine is positive there by [F4], [F6]. Both it and square to ; since complex numbers form a field [F35], any two roots differ only by sign, and their positive real parts force equality. Thus is continuous; steps 2.1 and give . On any line segment, if the endpoint values of were and , [F7] applied to its continuous real part would force that part to vanish somewhere, impossible for a value in . Therefore is constant along every segment. At , [F17] gives , so .
Fix and , and for set . For any and , [F27] gives the phase derivative and [F28] justifies integration by parts on . The amplitude derivative is by [F22]--[F24]; the boundary terms are at most . For , using and then [F22], [F23], [F29], and [F36] gives ; when this derivative term is zero. Also by [F33], so . Including the factor gives , and the negative tail has the same bound by . For , [F40] makes each real and imaginary tail satisfy the Cauchy condition in [F41]; hence the one-sided limits exist, and [F38] defines the ordinary two-sided improper Fresnel integral. The estimate is uniform for ; on every finite interval the damped integrand converges uniformly as . Given a tolerance, first choose so both tails are uniformly small and then pass to the limit on ; this proves that the Abel limit equals the ordinary two-sided improper integral. As , and , so step 3.1 gives .

Filon quadrature from nodal interpolation and phase moments
Definition
Input , , continuous , continuous real , an integer , distinct nodes , and for each Lagrange basis polynomial a complex moment estimate with real error bound satisfying . Put . Form using Lagrange interpolation at distinct real nodes, then return For , expand each real-node Lagrange polynomial as , run Exact recurrence for polynomial Fourier moments through , and set and . For general nonstationary , a user may obtain bounded moments by applying Bounded integration-by-parts expansion for an oscillatory moment to each with a certified derivative bound. The exact-moment branch for a general phase is conditional on supplied exact moments; no general exact moment solver for arbitrary nonlinear is asserted here.

Apply [F4] on separately to the real and imaginary parts. The transformed amplitude is , supported in , so [F6] also identifies its integral on with that on . The phase exponential factors as . Then [F2], with and sign , gives the stationary term in the Statement and a local remainder at most .
The complementary amplitude vanishes on a neighborhood of . Apply [F3] with on each side of that neighborhood; interval additivity [F6] combines the two formulas, and the internal endpoint terms vanish because and its derivatives are zero there.

Remarks
This theorem treats one interior simple stationary point and keeps the endpoint contribution explicit. Stationary endpoints and coalescing critical points are excluded; an endpoint or Airy-type uniform treatment requires a separate coordinate and remainder argument. Levin collocation in this pair remains on the nonstationary branch.
