Abstract: The Levin method transforms the evaluation of a highly oscillatory integral into the solution of a first-order linear ODE for a slowly varying auxiliary function. This ODE is typically approximated by collocation, after which the integral value is recovered from the auxiliary function at the endpoints. The present work develops a new extension of the Levin method for the summation of one-dimensional and multidimensional infinite oscillatory series. The summation problem is transformed into the solution of a functional equation involving transformed arguments of the unknown function. The resulting approach is particularly attractive in the multidimensional setting, where the range of existing numerical methods is relatively limited.
