    Note: from the 18:30 mark onwards the right hand side includes arctan(t/2) and not arctan(1/2) untill we actually plugged in t=1.
    Apologies for the error, I subconsciously drifted to the target case of I(1) while carrying out all the math correctly 😂

    Towards the end, it is written inverse tan of 1/2. However, this should be inverse tan of t/2.
    Final result stays the same, as t=1.

    Also works really nicely if you define the parameter inside the sine and just immediately differentiate twice with respect to the parameter. You end up integrating 2/x^(2)cos(2a ln(x)) which can be done by parts, where [a] was my parameter.

    Parameterising it as e^(-u)sin^2(tu)/u^2 actually makes the ensuing working out much nicer. You get that I''(t)=2/(1+4t^2) with I(0)=I'(0)=0 and directly end up with the nicer looking solution of arctan(2)-1/4ln5

  • @Sugarman96

    Here's how I'd do it with the Fourier transform. After the first u sub, you have an exponent times sin(u)/u squared, so the integral I is half the integral of e^-|u| times sin(u)/u squared, so you use Plancherel theorem to turn it in the integral of a triangle windows function times 1/(1+x^2), which is already easier

    It's funny that I got the exact same answer, differently. I put the alpha in the sin function and got the second derivative of it instead of changing variables first. ( which actually involved some really cool tricks that I learned from this channel as well). So anyway thanks a lot for your great content and I'd love to see more(especially if you would upload some tutorials about differential equations)

  • @joshuaiosevich3727
    @joshuaiosevich3727 4 місяці тому

    theres an easier way to go about this integral IMO, first we start by setting ln(x) to x getting us the integral from 0 to infty of sin^2(x)e^-x/x^2, then we actually define our integral function by putting the parameter t inside of the sin term instead of the exponential term, note for later that I(0)=0, for I'(t) we end up getting sin(2tx) inside so note again that I'(0)=0, we will have no worries over constants in this scheme. Then we differentiate one more time and we get the integral from 0 to infty of 2cos(2tx)e^-x which is equal to 2/(1+4t^2), then we integrate twice and plug in one.
    edit: my solution is no better, it's just what I came up with before I watched your solution. You literally taught me every advanced integration technqiue I know, you're the GOAT.

    At the minute 18:07, the factor of 8 outside the integral should be divided by 4 not by 2.

      @@MrWael1970 factor out 4 from the denominator and you get 1/(1+t²/4). Write t²/4 as (t/2)². Now you need (1/2)dt as the differential element so insert the ½ in the numerator and to balance that out we need to multiply outside the integral operator by 2. That gives you 2/4 outside the integral operator which is ½. Multiply that by the factor of 8 we already have then we get the factor of 4. You're right about factoring the 4 from the denominator but we also need to address the form of the differential element.

    • @tueur2squall973
      @tueur2squall973 Рік тому +1

      It's just easy to see , you compare the growing rates of your functions! Any power of t will dictate its behavior over the behavior of an ln function.
      So the product t*ln(t²/t²+4) , inside the ln , when t approches 0 , the whole thing converges to 0 , then we have ln(0) , so it goes to -infinity but the whole thing is multiplied by a power of t that actually wins there cuz "it goes to 0 way faster than the ln function". And you should be able to verify this tesult using l'Hospital rule

    • @calcul8er205

      You can split it up as 2tln(t)-tln(t^2+4). Using the fact that the limit as t approaches 0^+, tlnt approaches 0 gets you to the answer. That fact can be proven using L'Hopital's Rule
