Re: Fresnel Cosine Integral

Prove that: $$\int_{0}^{\infty}\cos(x^a)\,dx=\frac{\pi\csc\left ( \frac{\pi}{2a} \right )}{2a\Gamma (1-a)},\,\,\,\,\,a\in \mathbb{N}$$ without contours or complex analysis. $\displaystyle \int\limits_{0}^{+\infty }{\cos \left( x^{a} \right)dx}\underbrace{=}_{\sqrt[a]{y}=x}\frac{1}{a}\int\limits_{0}...

Re: Putnam Question 2014 (Infinite product)

Let \(a_k \) be a recursive sequence defined as \( \displaystyle a_0=\frac{5}{2} , \; a_k=a_{k-1}^2-2 ,\;\; k \in \mathbb{N} \). Evaluate the product: $$\prod_{k=0}^{\infty} \left( 1-\frac{1}{a_k} \right) $$ My solution :D Note that $a_{0}=\frac{5}{2}=\frac{2^{2}+1}{2^{1}}=\frac{2^{2^{1}}+1}{2^{2^{...

Integral

$$\int\limits_{0}^{\frac{\pi }{2}}{x\log \left( 1-\cos x \right)dx}=\frac{35}{16}\zeta \left( 3 \right)-\frac{\pi ^{2}}{8}\log 2-\pi G$$

Re: $\int_0^{\pi/2} \log^3 \cos x \, dx$

In continuity of this post by Grigorios let us see the same integral with a higher power. Prove that: $$\int_0^{\pi/2} \log^3 \cos x\, {\rm d}x = - \frac{3\pi \zeta(3)}{4}- \frac{\pi^3 \log 2}{8} - \frac{\pi \log^3 2}{2}$$ $$I=\int\limits_{0}^{\frac{\pi }{2}}{\log ^{3}\cos xdx}=\int\limits_{0}^{\fr...

Re: Laplace transform of a function!

Prove that: $$\int_{0}^{\infty}e^{-x} \ln \left ( \ln \left ( e^x+ \sqrt{e^{2x}-1} \right ) \right )\, {\rm d}x = -\gamma+ 4 \log \Gamma \left ( \frac{1}{4} \right )-3\log 2 -2 \log \pi$$ where $\gamma$ stands for the Euler - Mascheroni constant and $\Gamma$ is the Gamma function.
