      PlayIt with Joel There's a deeply satisfying derivation for the Gaussian integral, which involves squaring the integral, turning it into a double integral, and converting to polar. If you're familiar with those concepts at all, I highly recommend looking into it, so you can see where the pi comes from :)

    • @wontpower
      @wontpower 6 років тому +5

      You can manipulate the gaussian integral such that you are integrating over the whole xy plane, then convert the integral to polar coordinates. Since the integral would be taken over the whole coordinate plane, the new limits of integration would be r goes from 0 -> inf and theta goes from 0 -> 2pi, which is where pi comes from

    In the third part of the board, you have to indicate that the function e^(-u^2) is an even function because the curve of this function from -infini to 0 is the same that the curve from 0 to + infini, so the integral from -infini to 0 of this function is the same that the integral from 0 to + infini, so the integral from - infini to + infini equals 1/2(integral from - infini to + infini) of this function.

    • @JoQeZzZ
      @JoQeZzZ Рік тому

      Yes, for completion's sake this definitely necessary. Moreso than the explicit L'Hopital rule I would say, since a polynomial will obviously grow slower than an exponential.
      Proving exp(-u^2) is even (or even mentioning it) is a must.

  • @benjaminbrady2385
    @benjaminbrady2385 4 роки тому +1

    Simple Laplace transform table and setting s=1 will do the trick. A method that isn't relying on a table would be realising that is a factorial integral which can get some easy (but maybe hard to recognise or manipulate) results (think Euler reflection formula and then do some shifting)

    I think it is Gamma(3/2) not Gamma(1/2)
    Although standard way to calculate this integral is use of double integral
    we can avoid it using Gamma representation of Beta function
    Integral which we will get is easy to calculate by Euler subsitution (with roots)
    or completing the square under sqare root

    Why are the u bounds from 0 to infinity instead of say 0 to minus infinity? Or even minus infinity to plus infinity? If u were negative, then the square of u will be positive and fall in the range of x, and the process should yield a different result

      @PBJ Perhaps you'll find this interesting. It's really not calc 3 stuff. A double integral is just the most common approach to solving the integral from 0 to infinity of e^(-x^2). There's nothing multivariable about this integral. Take a look at this paper by Keith Conrad. Dr. Peyam also has a series where he goes over all of these methods in the paper. I think you'll find this interesting. kconrad.math.uconn.edu/blurbs/analysis/gaussianintegral.pdf
