List of Integrals of Exponential Functions - Definite Integrals

Definite Integrals

\int_0^1 e^{x\cdot \ln a + (1-x)\cdot \ln b}\;\mathrm{d}x = \int_0^1 \left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^{x}\cdot b\;\mathrm{d}x = \int_0^1 a^{x}\cdot b^{1-x}\;\mathrm{d}x = \frac{a-b}{\ln a - \ln b} for, which is the logarithmic mean
(the Gaussian integral)
(see Integral of a Gaussian function)
\int_{0}^{\infty} x^{n} e^{-ax^2}\,\mathrm{d}x = \begin{cases} \frac{1}{2}\Gamma \left(\frac{n+1}{2}\right)/a^{\frac{n+1}{2}} & (n>-1,a>0) \\ \frac{(2k-1)!!}{2^{k+1}a^k}\sqrt{\frac{\pi}{a}} & (n=2k, k \;\text{integer}, a>0) \\ \frac{k!}{2a^{k+1}} & (n=2k+1,k \;\text{integer}, a>0) \end{cases} (!! is the double factorial)
\int_{0}^{\infty} x^n e^{-ax}\,\mathrm{d}x = \begin{cases} \frac{\Gamma(n+1)}{a^{n+1}} & (n>-1,a>0) \\ \frac{n!}{a^{n+1}} & (n=0,1,2,\ldots,a>0) \\ \end{cases}
( is the modified Bessel function of the first kind)

Famous quotes containing the word definite:

    “He is no more than the chief officer of the people, appointed by the laws, and circumscribed with definite powers, to assist in working the great machine of government erected for their use, and consequently subject to their superintendence.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
