Many recent papers considered the problem of multivariate integration, and studied the tractability of the problem in the worst case setting as the dimensionality dd increases. The typical question is: can we find an algorithm for which the error is bounded polynomially in dd, or even independently of dd? And the general answer is: yes, if we have a suitably weighted function space.Since there are important problems with infinitely many variables, here we take one step further: we consider the integration problem with infinitely many variables–thus liberating the dimension–and we seek algorithms with small error and minimal cost. In particular, we assume that the cost for evaluating a function depends on the number of active variables. The choice of the cost function plays a crucial role in the infinite dimensional setting. We present a number of lower and upper estimates of the minimal cost for product and finite-order weights. In some cases, the bounds are sharp.
