EX3 (Csendes' or Infinity) Function
I. Mathematical Expression:
$$f(X)=\begin{cases}
\sum_{i=1}^{n}x^6_i\left[\sin\left(\frac{1}{x_i}\right)+2\right] & \text{ if } \prod^{n}_{i=1} x_i \neq 0 \\
0 & \text{ otherwise }
\end{cases}$$
where:
\(\bullet\) \(-1\leq x_i\leq 1\) as in [1] or \(-2\leq x_i\leq 2\) as in [2], \(i=1,2,\cdots,n\)
\(\bullet\) \(f_{min}(X^*)=0\)
\(\bullet\) \(x^*_i =0\)
\(\bullet\) This function was firstly designed by T. Csendes in [1], and thus it is sometimes known as Csendes' Function as in [3, 4]. In [2], this function was represented again with a new name "EX3 Function". Also, this function is called Infinity Function as in [4]. Please note that there are some typo-errors in the given expression in [3, 4], where at \(x_i=0\) the dependent variable will be equal to \(0\); otherwise it will go to infinity.
