Dear friends:

In the course of working through a physics "exercise" which I have been
discussing in a recent thread at sci.physics.research, I have come
across the need to solve a particular Gaussian-type integral. I'd
appreciate any help in solving this problem, which is set forth in the
one page file below:

http://jayryablon.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/fourth-order-gaussian-problem-description2.pdf

A related physics question:

Am I correct the understand that a "bare propagator" would be what
emerges from A^-2 on the right-most term in equation (5)?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Jay.

There is no closed form, you can try yourself:

Fun!

I will not bother writing the pointless algebra. We'll hammer at the
specific points if/when you get confused.

You have your integral:

I = int( exp( Jx - 1/2 [Ax + gx^2]^2 ), x = -\infty...\infty)

Form I^2. You now have a double integral over the entire plane over x
and y. The variable names are irrelevant, BTW.

Slightly expand the terms to move from Cartesian (x,y) to plane polar
(r,\theta) coordinates.

You now have a double integral over r and \theta. The integration
limits now are r = 0...\infty and \theta = 0 ... 2\pi.

The \theta integral is the key to what is now a fairly long integral.
Leave the abundances of sin and cos alone.

You will have a factor of exp(-A^2 r^2 / 2) that you can pull out - it
is the only term to survive what is to come.

Here is where things get hairy. Complex analysis incoming.

Change of variables again - z = exp( i \theta ). We're moving to the
COMPLEX PLANE!

d\theta = -i dz / z

sin(\theta) = ( z - z^-1 ) / 2i , cos(\theta) = ( z + z^-1 ) / 2

Quick summary of the plan:

An integral of the form int( f( cos(\theta) , sin(\theta) ), \theta =
0 ... 2\pi) under that coordinate change becomes a _contour_ integral
about the unit circle centered about z = 0. The contour integral will
be equal to 2 \pi i times the enclosed residues within the unit
circle.

Since exp( blah ) is nonzero for all blah, there is one simple pole at
z = 0, and the residue there is readily evaluated by expanding
exp(blah) in a Laurent series about z = \infty and then evaluated at z
= 0. The residue will be the term proportional to 1/z.

In z, the integrand will be exp(blah) / z, where blah is a 7 term
polynomial in zero, first, third, and fourth order in z.

I took the integrand and stuffed it into MATLAB and told it to form
the series. Really - typing the integrand in, and calling the series
function is _far_ quicker than doing it by hand.

The residue is exp ( -3 g^2 r^4 / 8 ).

So, minding the factors of i being thrown around, the contour integral
is equal to 2 pi exp( -3 g^2 r^4 / 8 )

Now the the integral takes a far simpler form:

int(exp(-(1/2)*A^2*r^2-(3*g^2*(1/8))*r^4)*r, r = 0 .. infinity)

Maple gives this as the solution:

(1/6)*sqrt(6)*sqrt(Pi)*exp((1/6)*A^4/g^2)*(sqrt(g^2)-g*erf((1/6)*sqrt(6)*A^2/g))/g^2

Since a part of the solution involves the error function, you do not
get a closed form answer. But thankfully, the error function is well
understood and about as exotic as a trig function.

That the integral does not depend on J makes me think I did not do
this correctly, however I cannot find any fault in the math. It
appears that J simply doesn't make a useful contribution.

So the entire integral is the square root of 2pi times what was
written above.

Hi Jay,

It seems to me that your substitution of variable in
eq. (3) is wrong. For sake of clarity, call the new
variable 'y', so we have,

x = y(A + gy) = Ay + gy^2.

Now the differentials are

dx = (A + 2gy)dy,

so, the definite Gaussian integral in (1),

\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}e^{-x^{2}/2 + Jx}\;dx,

after the substituition, becomes

\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}e^{-y^{2} {(A + g y)}^{2}/2 + J{y(A + gy)}}\;
(A + 2gy)dy,


http://www.yourequations.com/eq.latex?\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}e^{-y^{2}%20{(A%20+%20g%20y)}^{2}/2%20+%20J{y(A%20+%20gy)}}\;(A%20+%202gy)dy,


Therefore, your subsequents steps to find the simplest
closed-form seem to be wrong, too.

I showed you proof that there is no closed form. The Juanshito troll
just butted in, there is no escaping him (he's a troll, what else can

Juanshito, old fart

L=-m0c^2/gamma

p=gamma*m0*v

H=pv-L

v=0 implies H=-L, old cretin.

Now, answer the question I asked you 6 months ago: derive L. Let's see
it, old nutter.

As to the problem I posted yesterday, I have received several opinions
across several Usenet groups (including here) that there is no closed
form for the integral $ from -oo to +oo which I will represent here as:

$dx exp[-Ax^4-Bx^3-.5Kx^2+Jx]

I believe there is a closed form, and that one can do this to any order
and is not limited to only fourth order. Please tell me if you agree.

Solution (maybe?) posted below.

Hi Jay

I don't have the time to follow your proof but there must be an error
someplace since Wolfram disagrees with you:

Translated to Sincerity City, it would read:

"Hi Jay
I don't have the intelligence and skills


to follow your proof but there must be an error

someplace in my brains since it seems like I think
Wolfram would disagree with you".

Ok, I'll comment your attempt: Your attempt is plain bullshit!
It's funny to see a "genius" of mathematics like Eric inventing
integration methods :-) Seriously, how old are you, kid?

Your initial integral

I = int( exp( Jx - 1/2 [Ax + gx^2]^2 ), x = -\infty...\infty)

comes after a variable substitution that is badly incorrect,
namely x->x(A + gx). As I've pointed out, for sake of clarity,
call the new variable 'u', such that the substitution is

x = u(A + gu),

then differentiate x wrt to u, it yields

dx/du = A + 2gu,
dx = (A + 2gu) du ,

Now, substitute x and dx in the integral

I = int( exp( Jx - 1/2 x^2 ) dx, x = -\infty...\infty)

it yields

I = int( exp[ J(Au + gu^2) - 1/2 [Au + gu^2]^2 ] (A + 2gu) du,

and the integration limits of this integral will depend
upon the sign of g. But, since u = [-A +- sqrt(A^2 + 4gx)]/2g

what are the new linits for "your definite integral"?

From Mathematica you could get,

limit of u, when x ->oo, is
DirectedInfinity[(-Sign[g]^4)] / Sign[g]^(9/2))
for a root.

limit of u, when x ->oo, is
DirectedInfinity[(Sign[g]^4)] / Sign[g]^(9/2))
for the other root.


limit of u, when x ->-oo, is
DirectedInfinity[-(-Sign[g])^(9/2)] / Sign[g]^5
for a root.

limit of u, when x ->-oo, is
DirectedInfinity[(-Sign[g])^(9/2)] / Sign[g]^5
for the other root.

Again, the question is what are the new linits for
"your definite integral"?

AlbertShito Imbecile,

The substitution x = u(A + gu) makes the problem even WORSE. Do you
know why, cretin?

What Jay was talking about is using the substitution:

x(A+gx)=u

He eventually abandoned this idea in favor of another approach (that
is obviously to advanced for your cretinoid brain).

Dear, apreciated DonoShito, aka ball of shit.
You are wrong again, as usual. See Jay's first
paper attempt of solution here, again,
http://jayryablon.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/fourth-order-gaussian-problem-description2.pdf

line 9, it reads,

"Now, let’s substitute x -> x(A + x),
where A and g may be taken to be constants.
Because this is simply a substitution of variables
and the integral retains the form (1),.."

So, what does it mean?
a substituion with the form x -> u(A + u),
or a substituion with the form u -> x(A + x),
despicable piece of shit?

Hint: see the arrow ->? What does an arrow
like -> mean? Ok, I'll tell you, ...

Oh, my virgin ears, with all this foul language and silly bickering! ;-)

Anyway,

Dono is correct that I was using the substitution x(A+gx)=u and
eventually abandoned that idea.

I used this at the start because it retained the form of an $dx
e^(-.5x^2) even with terms in fourth order of x.

That is in part because I thought that one could not obtain a closed
solution except for certain special cases that could be converted over
to the $dx.e^(-.5x^2) form.

I abandoned this a) because the way I handled the substitution was wrong
as people in several Usenet groups pointed out and b) because I realized
that one could obtain a closed form solution for

$dx e^V(x)

where V(x) is a *any* polynomial of *any* order so long as V(x) includes
first and second order terms. Clearly, that is preferable to the very
restricted case I started with on the false assumption that only special
restricted cases would admit closed solutions.

Jay.

Are you using the royal "we" now, Juanshito?

Juanshito, old fart

L=-m0c^2/gamma-e*phi+eAv

where:

B=curl A
E=-dA/dt-grad(phi)

p=gamma*m0*v

H=pv-L=pv+m0c^2/gamma+e*phi-eAv=gamma*m0*v^2+m0c^2/gamma+e*phi-eAv

Where, exactly? Charles Francis over in SPF correctly identified a
correctable error in equation (5), as regards the (d/dJ)^n, but nothing
in (4).

Ok,

First off, congratulations on attempting a very nice trick.
You are nicely using the theorem for integras function of parameter
(J):

Integral {df(phi,J)/dJ }= d/dJ Integral{f(phi,J}

The LHS is the ugly integral that you are trying to calculate. The RHS
is the transformed form , that you know how to calculate.

But! The theorem says that the above is true if and only if BOTH
integrals are convergent. You know that RHS is but you have not shown
that RHS is (this is what is asked of you to prove). Moreover ,
Wolfram says that it isn't. So this is the first problem with eq (4)

The second problem that that you have tacitly extended the theorem to
include infinite series of functions (by expnading exp (...). There is
no theorem to support your extension, if you want to use it , you will
need to produce a proof first.

Now, you can safely ignore the Spaniard zombies (Juanshito and
Albertshito), they will definitely add some static. On the other hand,
you might want to show this to Charles Francis.

Hi Donut.

Where x' => x(1+gx) => x + gx^2

with dimensionality between length "x" and
area "x^2", such as,

x' => x^f(g) where 1 < f(g) < 2,

such as x' = x^1.1 at some point.

For the Donut, read this...

First presentation was by a drunk. Not especially interesting. My
presense was 'occasional'.

Second presentation was by someone much more competent. I find complex
analysis both interesting and useful. My presense is about 50%, which
might not seem like much until it is understood that nothing
interesting was taught until the complex analysis section of Arfken.

This trick only works for integrals of the form:

int( f(sin(\theta), cos(\theta)), \theta = 0...2pi)

Squaring the integral allows me to form the double integra in (u,v)l,
which lets me then use polar coordiantes which put the integral in the
form I need.

It is actually slightly odder - it _appears_ that the coefficients of
odd powers in the exponent do not contribute to the integral.

Interesting approach , Eric

I have known it for a long time, unfortunately it contains an error:

Integral{F(u)du}*Integral{G(v)dv} is not equal (in general) to Integral
{F(u)G(v)dudv}
Especially since you haven't established whether Integral{F(u)du} is
convergent (you definitely cannot use the trick you describe for
divergent integrals).

Close enough for government work.

The trick is valid.

It is assumed to be convergent otherwise the exercise is a waste of
time.

There are combinations for A, B, C, D that allow for convergence, such
as (-1,1,1,1) or such. The sign of the A term essentially determines
the convergence of the series, as nobody cares what exp(x^3) is doing
as exp(Ax^4) determines whether the setup converges.

I am sure my answer is wrong, as simple plots of the function for
alternate signs of B for a given value show that the function is
DIFFERENT. What is less than clear is _why_ it is wrong, as every step
I took is mathematically sound.

This would be a perfect time for these people who insist that I'm
stupid. I'm practically begging for them to find fault...let's see who
can deliver.

Nothing "odd" about that, in my view it's a
tribute to the solution.

+oo
$ x^2 dx = 1/3 x^3 limit -oo, +oo
-oo

is obviously zero because the $(-oo to 0)
= -$(0 to +oo), and when summed cancel.

But your blah is a function of r which goes to infinity, maybe giving

The point is that you NEED to establish firstly the conditions for
convergence. The general case (arbitrary A,B,C,D) is NOT convergent.

Almost correct but not quite. It is convergent for the polynomial
being positive definite.
The other cases are dicey.

There is no "V" in the formula. There is "v" , "phi" and "A". Can't

For x being large enough, the largest term in the polynomial dominates
the behavior. Short term behavior doesn't interest me.

If you can think of a way to calculate the residue in a way that is
independent of my own, I'd encourage you to try it as I think the
error is there.

The method disagrees with something Maple can handle fine on its' own:
int(exp(-Ax^2 + Bx), x=-infinity,infinity) with A > 0. The B
coefficient doesn't show up in the calculated answer, but does show up
in the Maple answer.

This is sufficiently interesting to get some of my time.

A bit more formally, with r = infinity as one limit, is the integral
independent of the order of integration? (My undergraduate reference
suggests maybe not.)

Also you want a pole at z=0; but since z = exp(i*theta), what does this
correspond to?

I get another term, exp(-g^4 r^4 / 2), from the [g^2 x^2]^2 and [g^2 y^2]^2
terms, which add up to 0.5 r^4 (1 - 0.5 sin^2 [2 theta] ). I can't see
why that should vanish in the theta integration.

As an aside it is fairly easy (I think) to show that

integral (-infty...infty) [ exp (-k x^4) ] dx = 2 Gamma(1.25)/k^(1/4)

~ 1.81/ k^0.25,

which might be useful for checking things if you haven't found it already.

How to solve a problem like,

$ x^n dx , n=f(x)

where x^n = abcd , where a,b,c,d are functions of
x, that may be written as

abcd = e^A e^B e^C e^D = e^(A+B+C+D).

where A...D are functions c(A) x^f(A) ...,
with c(A)...being the appropriate constant.

A simple example is $ x^x dx ,

1=>1 , 2=>4 , 3=>27 , 4=>256 ...

The solution is found here,
