    You could also write the cos term as the real part of e^i5x, and then complete the square in the exponential to get the final answer. Physicists use that trick a lot in quantum field theory.

      H(a) := integral from 0 to oo of exp(-x^2) exp(iax) dx
      H(a) = f(a) + ig(a)
      ∴ f(a) = Re(H(a)) && g(a) = Im(H(a))
      -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      exp(-x^2) * exp(iax) = exp( -x^2 + iax ) = exp(-( x^2 - iax )) = exp(-( x^2 - 2(ia/2)x + (ia/2)^2 - (ia/2)^2 )) =
      = exp(-( (x - ia/2)^2 + a^2/4 )) = exp( -(x - ia/2)^2 - a^2/4 ) = exp(-(x - ia/2)^2) exp(-a^2/4)
      -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      H(a) = integral from 0 to oo of exp(-(x - ia/2)^2) exp(-a^2/4) dx =
      = exp(-a^2/4) integral from 0 to oo of exp(-(x - ia/2)^2) dx

      i am stuck at this moment.
      i tried the transformation u := x - ia/2 but i don't know what to do with the integral:
      integral from -ia/2 to (oo - ia/2) of exp(-u^2) du
      that has complex limits (i don't know if that is how i was supposed to set the limits of u variable either) and I am not able to split it into two integrals of real variable either.
      can you give me a hint how can i proceed from here?

      @@michalbotor you did all that before understanding the basic concept of substitution :)
      Exp(-x^2) if multiplied by the euler's theorem would lead to addition of i in the expression whose integral in forward solving is a pain in butt (from past experiences)
      So moral is to find a logical concept and think on it before just scribbling this is pro tip in competitive level prep.

    You can also notice that the function is even and replace the integral with half the integral from -inf to inf.
    Then you break up the cosine into two complex exponentials, separate into two integrals. For each one you can complete the square in the exponent and reduce to the integral of exp(-x^2) by shifting the variable.

  • @kingbeauregard
    @kingbeauregard 5 лет назад +10

    My initial intuition was to use Feynman to get rid of the exponential term, because if you can get rid of that, trig functions are easy. The thing I didn't think through was the limits of integration: a trig function has no limit at infinity. So quite counterintuitively, it was the cosine that was going to be the troublesome element in all this, while the exponential term was what made the thing solvable.

    It's a bit crazy to call that the Feynmann technique. It goes back to Leibniz and it"s just deriving an integral depending on a parameter. Which by the way demands justification (either uniform convergence or dominated convergence). And in order to make this work you have to be extremely lucky and have a good intuition because you need 1) to find the right parametrization (here it's pretty obvious) ; 2) to be able to integrate the partial derivative for each value of the parameter (which is most of the time not possible) 3) to end up with a differential equation which you can solve (which is most of the time impossible), 4) to be able to compute a special value (here you need to know the value of the Gaussian integral, which is in itself tricky). So, I'd say it's a nice trick when it works but doesn"t qualify as a method...

What did people all over the world do before that, when calculus was already so advanced, and things like FT and others were well known...

    integral (0 to infinity) x^(2n) e^((-x* x) i.e x square) dx
    now using gamma function definetion
    this integrand would be written like this 1/2 times gamma function (n+ 1/2 ) times gamma function (1/2) which is (pi)^(1/2)
    now (n+ 1/2 ) !
    which can further be written like
    (n+1/2) ! = [(2n)! / 4^(n) (n) ! ]
    now substituting this result back into the summation we will see that the result we get is
    in the form 0.5 times gamma function(0.5) times
    summation (n €( 0 to infinity)) C^(n) / (n) !
    where C = -A^(2) / 4
    finally e^C = summation (n€ (0 to infinity) ) C^(n) / n!
    so the net result for this kinda integral will be {0.5 times gamma function(0.5) times e^ (- A*A /4 ) }

    OH MAH GAWD! I tried to integrate e^x*cosx using this method when I was 15! Holy shit! So this is differentiating under the integral? I did it differently -
    I simply took the derivative of e^x*sinx to get e^x + e^x*cosx and by integrating we get integral of e^x*cosx = e^x*sinx minus integral of e^x which is just e^x*(sinx - 1)...
    So for this problem (integral of e^-x^2*cos5x) we take the derivative of e^-x^2*sin5x and rearrange the expression so that e^-x^2*cos5x is on the LHS and we can simplify to get the RHS.

    sin(ix)=2
    x=?
    Interesting question, I thought of it recently and want to see if I solved it.
    Keep up with the amazing videos!

      Using the property that:
      sinh(x) = -i*sin(ix)
      We get that:
      sin(ix) = i*sinh(x)
      Putting that into the formula we now have:
      i*sinh(x) = 2
      Shuffling everything to the right side we get:
      X = arcsinh(-2*i)
      If we now use the logarithm form of the hyperbolic sine we get:
      X = ln(-2*i + i*sqrt(3))
      Taking out the i out of the ln we get:
      X = ln(sqrt(3) - 2) + ln(i)
      Using the formula:
      e^(i*pi) = -1
      We can square both sides to get:
      e^(i*pi/2) = i
      Now take the natural logarithm on both side and you have something in function of ln(i), and the original solution is simplified to:
      X = Ln(sqrt(3) - 2) + (i*pi)/2
