I REALLY like it when you do improper integrals. It's so much more satisfying to get an answer that is an actual number instead of a bunch of math functions added together.
I did it quite peacefully using feynman's trick with the parametrization: I(t) = sin(t lnx) / lnx I guess I've been watching too much flammable maths vids 😂 awesome video nonetheless 🍫
idk how it works, you would have to evaluate it from 0 to 1, you cant have 0 inside the ln tho even if u say t = 0 the integral has a 1/t after solving so can you explain please?
You can more easily do this by substituting ln(x)=-y which will leads to ...... I=∫(sin(y)e^(y))/y dy from 0 to ∞ now breaking sin(y) into taylore series and pulling the sigma notation out from the integral the integral will be a gamma function of (2n)! At last dividing it by (2n+1)! You will get series of arctan(u) with u=1 which immediately says that I=π/4
ik its a bit too late folks,but i solved it in 5 minutes.Set u=lnx dx=e^u du its now (sinu*e^u)/u,use feynman's method to get rid of u by writing the integral as (sinu*e^(uy))/u and solve.You will end up with a simple sinu*e^(uy).Use the DI method and by the end of the day you end up with a -1 over (y^2+1) so you just know its an inverse tangent.you get that the original is minus inverse tangent plus π/4 so if you replace y=1 you get π/2-π/4=π/4.without any complex numbers having to step in
Wow, that was so awesome! I haven't learned complex analysis, so I wouldn't think of expanding the scope to Complex numbers, that was clever! And when you zoomed in and I calculated the answer in my head, I was like "PFT, WHAT" and laughed, because the answer was so simple compared to how you solved it. One of the best videos of yours I've watched so far! :D
You don't need complex analysis to learn about complex integration with exponentials. It's usually taught when doing differential equations. The reason is that it's way easier to do nonhomogeneous second order linear DE's using e^(ix) than with sin(x) and cos(x). To do ∫sin(x)dx, for example, you just do Im[∫e^(ix)dx] = Im[1/i*e(ix)] = Im[−i*e^(ix)] = −cos(x). It′s a bit overkill on a regular integral, but when doing nonhomogeneous second order DE′s, it′s a dream compared to the alternative method of undetermined coefficients. If you′re wondering what that looks like, I′ll give an example. Take x′′+2x′+x=sin(t). The characteristic equation is thus p(r)=r^2+2r+1=0, which means r=−1, twice. That′s makes the complementary solutions y₁=e^−t and y₂=t*e^−t. For the particular solution we can complexify the sin(t) as e^(it), thus α=i. We know that the particular solution has the form y*=e^(αt)/p(α), which means y*=e^(it)/(i^2+2i+1)=e^(it)/(2i)=−i/2*e^(it)=1/2*sin(t)−i/2*cos(t). Thus a particular solution is yₚ=−1/2*cos(t) and the whole solution is y=C₁e^−t+C₂te^−t−¹/₂cos(t). Finding the particular solution without using complex exponentials would involve solving a system of three equations or, even worse, a system of two equations with two integrals. This way just requires us to remember a simple rule.
I solved it using I(t)=integral from 0 to 1 of sin(t*lnx)/lnx and got that right, maybe you could please upload a video using this method? If you would like, i can send you the picture of the solution somehow
This integral is very similar to 0 to infinity of sinx/x after the substitution x=e^u and the substitution I(a)=integral from -inf to 0 of e^au(sinu)/u. We want I(1). Feynman's technique solves this for us.
I was wondering the whole time how can an integral of a real function have a complex answer, but at the end when the answer simplified I was so relieved 😂. Maths is indeed beautiful.
A different approach is to set t = ln x . Then you get the Integral of sin t/t*Exp(-t) ,( limits zero and inf.). Setting I[a]= sin t/t *Exp[-a*t] you can use Feynman's trick now to find the result π/4 .
It's true that the limit as x approaches zero of x^a is undefined if the real part of a is zero. However, the limit becomes 0 if the real part of a is greater than zero. This can be proven by showing the limit as x approaches 0 of | x^a | is 0. Therefore, his step of 0^(1+bi) = 0 is valid.
this is why i like you videos , even if you understand the lesson very well you always surprise us with some tricks , but i have a question ( to you and to whoever reads this and can anwer me ) : when to think of such a method ? how to know if taking an integral to the complexe world and B world will give a results ? is there some hints within the integral ?

Euler evaluated this integral centuries ago by focusing on sin(ln(x)) first expanding it into an infinite series of sin(y) ie y-y^3/3!+y^5/5!-.......then you substitute y=ln(x)....ln(x) can be factored out and cancelled with the ln(x) in the denominator. Then it’s a simple ln(x) to a power evaluated term wise by Bernoulli first. Then you get the Leibniz series. Pi/4. Simples.
It's quite easy with Feynman's rule. I did it with g(t) = int sin(tlnx) dx/lnx evaluated at 0 to 1. Then evaluated g'(t) and complexified it. Pretty easy
I think more easy way is I (b)=integral sin (blnx)/x 0 to 1 I'(b)=integral cos (blnx) 0 to 1 I' (b)=1/(1+b^2) I (b)=tan^-1 (b)+c And I (0)=0 =》c=0 I (b)=tan^-1 (b) I (1)=pi/4
I solved it without complex number. I just used a Feynman's Trick to integrate sin(alnx)/lnx. For a=0 we get I(0)=0. I(1) is out integral in question. Now, I'(a)=integral of cos(alnx)dx from 0 to 1 which is 1/(a^2+1) (check for yourselves!)
I loved the way you solved this but I guess my method is easier... You can directly introduce a new variable: sin( 'b' lnx)/lnx, and then proceed with the same method. Finally you'll get: I(b) = arctan(b), where we want b=1, hence we get π/4. I hope that was helpful.
A non-complex, perhaps less exciting approach: Begin with u = lnx u = lnx x = e^u dx = e^u du Now we have: ∫ (sinu / u * e^u) du. Let's define a function I(a) such that I(a) = ∫ (sinu / u * e^(au)) du. Notice that I(1) is equal to the original definite integral at hand. Let's differentiate both sides with respect to a: I(a) = ∫ (sinu / u * e^(au)) du I'(a) = ∫ (sinu / u * ue^(au)) du I'(a) = ∫ (sinu * e^(au)) du Perform integration by parts so that the integrand repeats. This yields the following equation: (1 + a^2)∫ (sinu / u * e^(au)) du = -1 ∫ (sinu / u * e^(au)) du = -1/(1 + a^2) I'(a) = -1/(1 + a^2) Time to integrate both sides with respect to a. It is a well known result that ∫ 1/(1 + x^2) dx = tan^(-1)(x) + C. Let's use that piece of information to our advantage: ∫ I'(a) da = ∫ (-1/(1 + a^2)) da I(a) = -tan^(-1)(a) + C Recall that I(a) is defined as I(a) = ∫ (sinu / u * e^(au)) du. If we plug in a = 0, we get the definite integral of sinu / u from negative infinity to zero which is essentially the same thing as going from zero to positive infinity. This is because sinx/x is an even function. The value of this definite integral is known very well to be equal to π/2. We could also let a go to negative infinity and carry on from there but things get a little akwards that way. I believe that also works but it is much simpler this way. Let's continue with a = 0: I(0) = -tan^(-1)(0) + C π/2 = C C = π/2 Now that we know another representation for I(a) besides it's original definition, let us finally plug in a = 1. If you remember, this is equal to the definite integral going from 0 to 1 of sin(lnx)/lnx. That's what we are trying to solve. I(1) = -tan^(-1)(1) + π/2 = -π/4 + π/2 = π/4 In conclusion, I(1) = ∫ (sin(lnx) / lnx) dx (from 0 to 1) = π/4.
Dear Blackpenredpen I'm one of your followers, and i noticed that you love complications lol, there's a more much easier way to do it look 1st let lnx=-t the integral become from 0 to infinity of sint*exp(-t)/t dt 2nd paramertrizing the integral by introduicing alpha in the sinus 3rd Derivate to alpha we obtain an easy integral (the laplacien of cos(at) The rest is a child game Bye
Dear Fares BERARMA If you work out *all* the steps from your outlines, then it will take about the same amount of time/steps to *make it clear to the viewers* who haven't seen this kind of things before....... Bye
I solved it by changing the variables: t = -ln(x). I got the integral from 0 to +inf of sin(t)/t*e^(-t). Then I used the series definition of sin(t) and swapped integration and summation (bcs I can :)). The improper integral was equal to (2n)! which I very liked. In the end, the sum was exactly the arctan(1) by the series definition. The steps (in latex code - feel free to paste into desmos for readability): integral = \int_{0}^{+\infty}\frac{1}{t}\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{\left(-1 ight)^{n}}{\left(2n+1 ight)!}t^{2n+1}e^{-t}dt = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{\left(-1 ight)^{n}}{\left(2n+1 ight)!}\int_{0}^{+\infty}t^{2n}e^{-t}dt = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{\left(-1 ight)^{n}}{2n+1} = \arctan1 = \pi/4
There actually is another way in the final step. Using the definition that a+bi = re^(i*theta), with r being sqrt(a^2+b^2) and theta being arctan(b/a), or just the angle that forms on the Cartesian when the points are graphed with the x-axis are real and y-axis as imaginary, we get that ln(1+/-I) = ln(sqrt(2))+/-pi/4 (ln(r) + i*theta by logarithmic product rule and cancellation with e) but because it’s (1/(2i))(ln(1+I) - ln(1-i)), the parts with ln(sqrt(2)) cancel and we get pi/4 ultimately. Meanwhile, I guess this could be a cheat explanation but I think we can consider the 2pi*n of both thetas to mutually cancel in my way of calculation through subtraction.
This can actually be solved without complex numbers Place the parameter in the argument of sin; then differentiate You'll then have to solve the integral of cos(t•ln(x)), which looks pretty intimidating but it can be solved with a u-sub and then integration by parts You then get I'(t)=1/(1+t²) I(t)=arctan(t)+c; but I(0)=0 so I(t)=arctan(t) I(1)=π/4
A much easier solution is to set u equal to ln(x), then set y=-u, then you get the integral from 0 to infinity of e^-xsin(x)/x and you realize we're done because this just requires the same feynman trick that gets us the solution to the dirichlet integral. define I(t)=e^-xt*sin(x)/x, I'(t)=-1/(1+t^2), I(t)=-arctan(x)+C, I(infty)=0, thus C=pi/2, plug in t=1 and pi/2-arctan(1)=pi/2-pi/4=pi/4, and ya done.
No need to go into the complex world. Use Leibneiz-Feymann technique with the function I(b), where I(b) is the integral from 0 to 1 of sin(b*ln(x))/ln(x) in dx (our initial integral is I(1)). d(I(b))/db is the integral from 0 to 1 of cos(b*lnx) in dx, which is equal to the integral from -inf to 0 of cos(b*u)*(e^u) in du. (lnx=u) Integrating by parts twice we get that d(I(b))/db is 1/(1+b^2) (how cool is that). So I(b) is arctan(b)+c, where c must be 0 because I(0) is clearly 0 and arctan(0) is 0. So I(1) is arctan(1)= π/4
Guys, this in America is not calc I or Calc II OR calc III this a non elementary function and is fourth or fifth semester Calc that is junior or senior level analysis (All calc is a form of analysis). So unless you are a math major, engineer or physics major don't sweat this stuff. You will not need it.
Exactly, even a lot of engineers don't need this stuff. Nor programmers etc. Fun to watch but not anything that most of those people involved in the technical or science fields need to worry about.
Because it's the simplest value that satisfy the question. You could choose another value, or even all of then if you want, but there is no need since they're all kind of equivalent
Abhi Sarma Thanks for the response, it did clear up some of my confusion. ^^ And now I see that in a sense these infinitely many solutions are caused by the fact that the ln in the integral on the very beginning could be interpreted this way as well. But I still don't get how do we know it's this value for ln(i) and not a different one...
I think the way I would describe this, there are countably infinitely many analytic solutions, but only one solution consistent with other concepts, such as graphing this real-valued function and applying the concept of Riemann sums that generates the Riemann integral. Sure, in a vacuum, you might want to account for the whole family of solutions. But when the domain is restricted to the Real numbers, the function y(x)=sin(ln(x))/ln(x) has a unique Cartesian graph, and we can use other concepts of mathematics to narrow down what "the" solution to this integral is, which we would get if we had a method for it that did not leave the realm of the Real numbers. I've prepared a demo of the Riemann sum here: www.desmos.com/calculator/p5mh9so1hl Just move the slider for k to watch the value of the Riemann sum change. And compare it to the integral also calculated by Desmos.
why not uosing u substituting right away ? strat whit u=lnx and then the same method but no need for complex numbers. the Integrand will be (e^bu*sinu)/u
@@alxanderjon8716 The definition of the Laplace transform is actually in the form of an integral. If you use that definition, it could work. That's my thinking anyways.
@@MG-hi9sh ok so if we do the substitution and change the bounds we have integral from -inf to 0 of e^t(sint) then if we take the laplace transform of this we will have a double integral, but both wrt t. How does that work? do you just combine the limits?
@@alxanderjon8716 No, Laplace would change the variable to s and then you would change bounds based on s values. Laplace of e^tsin(t) is 1/((s-1)^2)+1), and you integrate using that, I think. Don't take my word for it though, but I think that would be the reasoning.
USE ?F(a) = integral(0 to 1 ) sin(aln(x)/ln(x) dx and Feynman diff under integral cos (a(ln(x)) = re (exp(i a ln(x))) = x ^(i a) integrate to x(i a +1) / (1+ i a) and put x = 1 and zero sp re part of (1/)1+i a) is the differential of the target Feynman integral. This is 1/(1+a^2) so the F(a) = arctan (a) + c put a = 0 and we seee c = 0 put a = 1 and the final integral is arctan(1)

Refer to video about lim(x->0) {sin(ln x)/ln x} = DNE. Can we observe the convergence of this integral to determine lim(x->0) {sin(ln x)/ln x}? I am thinking: If the area under {sin(ln x)/ln x} is finite (for 0

I think your solution is more elegant, as it doesn't require complex numbers inside natural logs (which can have infinitely many values).
Nice! It leads to dI/dt = (1/t) ∫e^(u/t)cos(u)du from -∞ to 0 = 1/(t²+1); After integrating you get I = arctan(t) + C; I(0) =0 = C ; I(1) = π/4
Same bro.. And it doesn't involve complex numbers in any way so simple, but a little longer..

I = {0,1}∫ sin(ln x)/ ln x dx
F(t) = {0,1}∫ sin(t*ln x) / ln x dx
=> F'(t) = {0,1}∫ ln x * cos(t*ln x) / ln x dx = {0,1}∫ cos(t*ln x) dx
After solving (I spent like 15 minutes and couldn't figure it out tbh, so I just used wolfram) you get: F'(t) = 1 / (t^2 + 1)
We see that F(0) = {0,1}∫ sin(0) / ln x dx = {0,1}∫ 0 dx = 0.
Therefore:
I = F(1) = F(1) - F(0) = {0,1}∫ F'(t) dt = {0,1}∫ 1 / (t^2 + 1) dt = arctan(1) - arctan(0) = π/4

I'(a) = ∫ (sinu / u * ue^(au)) du
I'(a) = ∫ (sinu * e^(au)) du
Perform integration by parts so that the integrand repeats. This yields the following equation:
(1 + a^2)∫ (sinu / u * e^(au)) du = -1
∫ (sinu / u * e^(au)) du = -1/(1 + a^2)
I'(a) = -1/(1 + a^2)
Time to integrate both sides with respect to a. It is a well known result that ∫ 1/(1 + x^2) dx = tan^(-1)(x) + C. Let's use that piece of information to our advantage:
∫ I'(a) da = ∫ (-1/(1 + a^2)) da
I(a) = -tan^(-1)(a) + C
Recall that I(a) is defined as I(a) = ∫ (sinu / u * e^(au)) du. If we plug in a = 0, we get the definite integral of sinu / u from negative infinity to zero which is essentially the same thing as going from zero to positive infinity. This is because sinx/x is an even function. The value of this definite integral is known very well to be equal to π/2. We could also let a go to negative infinity and carry on from there but things get a little akwards that way. I believe that also works but it is much simpler this way. Let's continue with a = 0:
I(0) = -tan^(-1)(0) + C
π/2 = C
C = π/2
Now that we know another representation for I(a) besides it's original definition, let us finally plug in a = 1. If you remember, this is equal to the definite integral going from 0 to 1 of sin(lnx)/lnx. That's what we are trying to solve.
I(1) = -tan^(-1)(1) + π/2 = -π/4 + π/2 = π/4
In conclusion, I(1) = ∫ (sin(lnx) / lnx) dx (from 0 to 1) = π/4.
Hey awesome video, but you spelt the Jamie wrong in the title (you spelt it Jaime).
Great video nevertheless, and keep it up!
-James- thanks!! I just fixed.
blackpenredpen no problem!
@@blackpenredpen jaime lannister?
Misal ln x=y maka dy=dx/x atau dx= x dy=e^ydy
|=|e^y sin y dy= |sin y d(e^y)
Lalu integral parsial.
But isn't ln(i)=iπ/2+2kπ for integer k? But this integral clearly cannot have more than one answer. Am I missing something?
Let me know if you the answer
Because x is between 0 and 1
Dear Blackpenredpen
I'm one of your followers, and i noticed that you love complications lol, there's a more much easier way to do it look
1st let lnx=-t the integral become from 0 to infinity of sint*exp(-t)/t dt
2nd paramertrizing the integral by introduicing alpha in the sinus
3rd Derivate to alpha we obtain an easy integral (the laplacien of cos(at)
The rest is a child game
Bye
Dear Fares BERARMA
If you work out *all* the steps from your outlines, then it will take about the same amount of time/steps to *make it clear to the viewers* who haven't seen this kind of things before.......
Bye
I solved it by changing the variables: t = -ln(x). I got the integral from 0 to +inf of sin(t)/t*e^(-t).
Then I used the series definition of sin(t) and swapped integration and summation (bcs I can :)). The improper integral was equal to (2n)! which I very liked. In the end, the sum was exactly the arctan(1) by the series definition.
The steps (in latex code - feel free to paste into desmos for readability):
integral = \int_{0}^{+\infty}\frac{1}{t}\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{\left(-1
ight)^{n}}{\left(2n+1
ight)!}t^{2n+1}e^{-t}dt
= \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{\left(-1
ight)^{n}}{\left(2n+1
ight)!}\int_{0}^{+\infty}t^{2n}e^{-t}dt
= \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{\left(-1
ight)^{n}}{2n+1}
= \arctan1
= \pi/4
Yes, this can be converted into the Laplace transform of (sin(t)/t), and the result = π/2 - arctan(S) with S=1, i.e. π/4.
That was actually pretty cool.
very good bprp, i suggest you try the integral from 0 to 2π of e^(cosx)* cos(sin(x)) dx #YAY
Hmmm, I can try
There actually is another way in the final step. Using the definition that a+bi = re^(i*theta), with r being sqrt(a^2+b^2) and theta being arctan(b/a), or just the angle that forms on the Cartesian when the points are graphed with the x-axis are real and y-axis as imaginary, we get that ln(1+/-I) = ln(sqrt(2))+/-pi/4 (ln(r) + i*theta by logarithmic product rule and cancellation with e) but because it’s (1/(2i))(ln(1+I) - ln(1-i)), the parts with ln(sqrt(2)) cancel and we get pi/4 ultimately. Meanwhile, I guess this could be a cheat explanation but I think we can consider the 2pi*n of both thetas to mutually cancel in my way of calculation through subtraction.
Wolframalpha told me 0^i is undefined. Can you do a video on that and maybe other complex limits?
This can actually be solved without complex numbers
Place the parameter in the argument of sin; then differentiate
You'll then have to solve the integral of cos(t•ln(x)), which looks pretty intimidating but it can be solved with a u-sub and then integration by parts
You then get
I'(t)=1/(1+t²)
I(t)=arctan(t)+c; but I(0)=0
so
I(t)=arctan(t)
I(1)=π/4
A much easier solution is to set u equal to ln(x), then set y=-u, then you get the integral from 0 to infinity of e^-xsin(x)/x and you realize we're done because this just requires the same feynman trick that gets us the solution to the dirichlet integral. define I(t)=e^-xt*sin(x)/x, I'(t)=-1/(1+t^2), I(t)=-arctan(x)+C, I(infty)=0, thus C=pi/2, plug in t=1 and pi/2-arctan(1)=pi/2-pi/4=pi/4, and ya done.
this is the kind of content I love to see, also why are you up so late???
That supreme jacket tho
this was fun! but in the end how do you know that log i yields π/2, and not something like 5π/2 ?
can you prove the continuity of y=x^(1/x) pls ?
The convergence and continuity of the function sin(ln x)/ln x at x=0 need to be discussed.
That was a wild ride from beginning to end
4:45 is there a way you can know where exactly to put the 2nd variable? or do you just keep trying to find the correct place?
Yay! This was so cool!!
Thx for putting it up
Supreme integral? More like "Super good video!" 👍
why we not using laplace properties L[f(x)/x]=integration of phi(x) from o to infinity.
What a wonderful first question on my exam.
No need to go into the complex world.
Use Leibneiz-Feymann technique with the function I(b), where I(b) is the integral from 0 to 1 of sin(b*ln(x))/ln(x) in dx
(our initial integral is I(1)).
d(I(b))/db is the integral from 0 to 1 of cos(b*lnx) in dx, which is equal to the integral from -inf to 0 of cos(b*u)*(e^u) in du. (lnx=u)
Integrating by parts twice we get that d(I(b))/db is 1/(1+b^2) (how cool is that).
So I(b) is arctan(b)+c, where c must be 0 because I(0) is clearly 0 and arctan(0) is 0.
So I(1) is arctan(1)= π/4
Guys, this in America is not calc I or Calc II OR calc III this a non elementary function and is fourth or fifth semester Calc that is junior or senior level analysis (All calc is a form of analysis). So unless you are a math major, engineer or physics major don't sweat this stuff. You will not need it.
Exactly, even a lot of engineers don't need this stuff. Nor programmers etc. Fun to watch but not anything that most of those people involved in the technical or science fields need to worry about.
I'm moved!! I don't know, at the last part of the video, why we can choose principal value of (ln i = πi/2 + 2nπi).
Because it's the simplest value that satisfy the question. You could choose another value, or even all of then if you want, but there is no need since they're all kind of equivalent
that was one heck of an adventure
: )
This would have been much simpler if you made ln(x) = -v and then use Feynman's technique! I(a) = Integral of [sin(v)/v]*e^-av between 0 and infinity.
Hi. Your work is awesome
How do you know to take the principal value of ln(i)? Since there are infinite possible values for ln(i). i(Pi/2 + 2(Pi)n), n is an integer.
May you please make a video on how to solve for x=y^2+x^2y y=x^2+y^2x
Mathematician dressing code be like: for a supreme integral, I need a supreme shirt
More multivariable calculus videos would be neat 🤙
hy blackpenredpen this integral will be amazing in a vidieo: integral of (1/cos^n(x)) n natural
...can someone explain to me why ln(i) isn't πi(1/2+2k)? ^^'
It is, because ln is a periodic function in the complex world, but in this context of real integration it only makes sense to take the principal value
Abhi Sarma Thanks for the response, it did clear up some of my confusion. ^^ And now I see that in a sense these infinitely many solutions are caused by the fact that the ln in the integral on the very beginning could be interpreted this way as well. But I still don't get how do we know it's this value for ln(i) and not a different one...
Hamish Blair But the integral itself only has one answer (assuming we mean the real logarithm of x)
I think the way I would describe this, there are countably infinitely many analytic solutions, but only one solution consistent with other concepts, such as graphing this real-valued function and applying the concept of Riemann sums that generates the Riemann integral. Sure, in a vacuum, you might want to account for the whole family of solutions. But when the domain is restricted to the Real numbers, the function y(x)=sin(ln(x))/ln(x) has a unique Cartesian graph, and we can use other concepts of mathematics to narrow down what "the" solution to this integral is, which we would get if we had a method for it that did not leave the realm of the Real numbers.
I've prepared a demo of the Riemann sum here:
www.desmos.com/calculator/p5mh9so1hl
Just move the slider for k to watch the value of the Riemann sum change. And compare it to the integral also calculated by Desmos.
why not uosing u substituting right away ?
strat whit u=lnx and then the same method but no need for complex numbers.
the Integrand will be (e^bu*sinu)/u
Where does 3^t.ln(3) come from? Don't you just have the exponent times whatever is in the power differentiated? So you'd have 3^t.(1) = 3^t.
Nice
We can take " lnx=t"and solve the equation using Laplace transform occupying only half a page.
That said love your channel keep up the good work.
How would you do that? Doesn't Laplace need initial conditions?
Ive only seen it in the context of differential equations.
@@alxanderjon8716 The definition of the Laplace transform is actually in the form of an integral. If you use that definition, it could work. That's my thinking anyways.
@@alxanderjon8716 Laplace can be used for integrals as well, it isn't just a DE method.
@@MG-hi9sh ok so if we do the substitution and change the bounds we have integral from -inf to 0 of e^t(sint) then if we take the laplace transform of this we will have a double integral, but both wrt t. How does that work? do you just combine the limits?
@@alxanderjon8716 No, Laplace would change the variable to s and then you would change bounds based on s values. Laplace of e^tsin(t) is 1/((s-1)^2)+1), and you integrate using that, I think. Don't take my word for it though, but I think that would be the reasoning.
Inverse Laplace transform to a double integral and changing the order of integration is how I evaluated it before watching the video.
1 power (1+bi) is equal to e power (- 2b pi).
USE ?F(a) = integral(0 to 1 ) sin(aln(x)/ln(x) dx and Feynman diff under integral cos (a(ln(x)) = re (exp(i a ln(x))) = x ^(i a) integrate to x(i a +1) / (1+ i a) and put x = 1 and zero sp re part of (1/)1+i a) is the differential of the target Feynman integral. This is 1/(1+a^2) so the F(a) = arctan (a) + c put a = 0 and we seee c = 0 put a = 1 and the final integral is arctan(1)
*if you watched a video in the past*
me who watched a video about feynman's technique 5 minutes ago: damn what kind of distant past is this
Hey blackpenredpen, what books or bdf books do you propose when one want to study integration ( I mean calculus in general) to the fullest just like you. So he can Know quite a lot. Pls 🙏🙏🙏
I remember this integral back in college several decades ago...indef int of [ ln (x^2)/(1+x^2) ] dx....never got the correct answer. Would love to see what this is.
Just plug it into the integral calculator www.integral-calculator.com and show steps
Do the integral of e^x*sin(ln x) from x=0 to infinity ?
That was pretty awesome. Hey, could you tackle this one--> 4(x^2) + x + 1 = ((2x - 1)^(1/2))((x+1)^(1/4)). i was able to prove there r no real solutions. but what about complex solutions. I think this could be an intresting video. Keep up the awesomeness
I don't understand how you can plug in -1 for b. Didn't you have earlier ...x^(i+bi) ? You did plug in x=0 and said the result was 0, but with b=-1 you have 0^0. Please explain. Love your videos
Refer to video about lim(x->0) {sin(ln x)/ln x} = DNE.
Can we observe the convergence of this integral to determine lim(x->0) {sin(ln x)/ln x}? I am thinking: If the area under {sin(ln x)/ln x} is finite (for 0
Is it wrong for me to take parameter b for both the x variables in the numerator of I(b) such as _x^(ib)-x^(-ib)_ ?
wouldn't Laplace transform be much shorter?
this can be done more easily by using feynmen's trick in the first step itself
taking I(b)=integration(sin(blnx)/lnx)
using that
we won't have to deal with complex numbers, they will cancel out and just give arctan(b) as I(b)
At 14:02 , he said something about negative?? What is that about?
Oh bc usually when we integral 1/(1+x) we get ln|1+x|,
But I said since the ln inside had complex number, so dont worry about the abs value. : )
Oh ok thanks!
Now I’d buy an expensive t-shirt with that on it.
19:10 How did WolframAlpha find the integral?
