    @9:45: I too think this is really, really cool. There can never be too much Lambert W function content on UA-cam. Now that you've computed the derivative of W(x), can you compute its antiderivative? I'll give it a try, and leave another comment if I succeed.

    • @jimschneider799
      @jimschneider799 Місяць тому +5

      It took me a couple of hours, but I finally got it. On my first attempt, I solved W'(x) = W(x)/(x*(W(x)+1)) for W(x) to get x*W'(x)/(1-x*W'(x)), and integrated x*W'(x)/(1 - x*W'(x))*dx through a series of substitutions, starting with u = x*W'(x) (which introduced an exponential in W(x) to remove an x), culminating in a polynomial in t, times e^t. Unfortunately, I must have made a sign error somewhere, because the result did not have a derivative equal to W(x) (instead getting (W(x)^2 + 2*W(x) - 1)/(W(x) + 1) - 1). But it was close enough that I was able to deduce that the true antiderivative of W(x) was likely a quadratic in W(x), times e^W(x), plus a constant, and starting from there, I was able to find h(x) = (W(x)^2 - W(x) + 1)*e^W(x) + C, which is a function such that h'(x) = W(x).

    • @jimschneider799
      @jimschneider799 Місяць тому

      Of course, after a few more minutes of playing around with this, I realized I should have *started* with the substitution u = W(x), because that would give me dx = (u+1)*e^u*du, and integrating u*(u+1)*e^u*du is easy....

    Hi!, Im in senior year of hs and I need major help for a school project. I need to calculate the arc length for polinomials of 2nd, 3rd and 4th power. Using symbolab and wolfram i was able to find the derivative of a general parabola, but with cubics it doesnt say anything. Let me explain
    The formula for the arc length is length=bounded_integral(sqrt(1+f'(x)²))
    Where f(x) is the function you want to calculate the arc length of.
    In parabolas u first substitute u=f'(x), so du=f''(x)dx=number*dx
    So you can move it around. However in higher powers f"(x) is no longer just a number, it contains "x" so you are much more limited.
    Any alternatives to the original precess would be of immense help (u-substotution, then trig-substitution), you can see it when plugging f(x)=x²+x+1 in the formula. Any tips or other programa that might be able to calculate it would help too. I also tried desmos but im afraid it uses a numerical method to calculate nounded integrals, since it only allows for those.
    Thank you!!

  • @ingobojak5666
    @ingobojak5666 Місяць тому +9

    While the limit is correct, these functions do not really become the same at large x. For large x, W(x)=ln(x)-ln(ln(x)+O(1). Hence as x->Infinity, W(x)/ln(x) ->1 because ln(x) grows faster than ln(ln(x)). However, as x-> infinity also ln(x)-W(x) -> ln(ln(x)) -> Infinity. Thus the difference between log and product log becomes infinite at large x. It's just that this difference grows slower than the functions themselves, so the result of dividing them tends to 1 at large x...

      I don't use the Lambert W function for much in my personal work, but I like using it in Calculus classes. Apparently, it has uses in some natural sciences, but the interesting thing, to me, is that we can't find a "nice formula" for it in terms of elementary functions, but we can still do calculus with it. We can use implicit differentiation to calculate its derivative. We can use things like Newton's Method to calculate values of W(x) to arbitrary precision. So the fact that we can do so much with a function that we don't have an "nice formula" for shows the power of calculus theory.

      @ConManAU Місяць тому +3

      A function f has an inverse if for every x there is a unique y so that f(y) = x. For that to happen, it has to be bijective - one-to-one and onto.
      The function x e^x can be defined for all real x, but you’ll find that there are values of x less than -1 and values greater than -1 that give the same value of the function, meaning you can’t pick a unique inverse across that domain. By restricting the domain of the function to [-1,infinity), you force it so that there’s only one value in the domain that corresponds to each value in its range.
