8 Many ideas... Some of the ideas produced by Sergio during the many discussions we had in those years... M. Viviani (INFN-Pisa) Few-body systems with the HH method Marciana Marina, 27/6/14 8 / 32

9 One-point integration... Idea: to integrate one needs to compute the integrand in just one point b I = dx f(x) = (b a) f(x ) a It would be very useful in case of multidimensional integration x x I = dx 1... dx n f(x 1,...,x n) = Volume f( x 1,..., x n) Unfortunately we could not succeed...
