Indefinite integrals involving the incomplete elliptic integrals of the first and second kinds

2016

ABSTRACTA substantial number of indefinite integrals are presented for the incomplete elliptic integrals of the first and second kinds. The number of new results presented is about three times the total number to be found in the current literature. These integrals were obtained with a Lagrangian method based on the differential equations which these functions obey. All results have been checked numerically with Mathematica. Similar results for the incomplete elliptic integral of the third kind will be presented separately.

Indefinite integrals of products of special functions

2016

ABSTRACTA method is given for deriving indefinite integrals involving squares and other products of functions which are solutions of second-order linear differential equations. Several variations of the method are presented, which applies directly to functions which obey homogeneous differential equations. However, functions which obey inhomogeneous equations can be incorporated into the products and examples are given of integrals involving products of Bessel functions combined with Lommel, Anger and Weber functions. Many new integrals are derived for a selection of special functions, including Bessel functions, associated Legendre functions, and elliptic integrals. A number of integrals o…

A Lagrangian method for deriving new indefinite integrals of special functions

2015

A new method is presented for obtaining indefinite integrals of common special functions. The approach is based on a Lagrangian formulation of the general homogeneous linear ordinary differential equation of second order. A general integral is derived which involves an arbitrary function, and therefore yields an infinite number of indefinite integrals for any special function which obeys such a differential equation. Techniques are presented to obtain the more interesting integrals generated by such an approach, and many integrals, both previously known and completely new are derived using the method. Sample results are given for Bessel functions, Airy functions, Legendre functions and hype…

Pseudo-Abelian integrals along Darboux cycles

2008

We study polynomial perturbations of integrable, non-Hamiltonian system with first integral of Darboux-type with positive exponents. We assume that the unperturbed system admits a period annulus. The linear part of the Poincare return map is given by pseudo-Abelian integrals. In this paper we investigate analytic properties of these integrals. We prove that iterated variations of these integrals vanish identically. Using this relation we prove that the number of zeros of these integrals is locally uniformly bounded under generic hypothesis. This is a generic analog of the Varchenko-Khovanskii theorem for pseudo-Abelian integrals. Finally, under some arithmetic properties of exponents, the p…

Kirkwood-Buff Integrals for Finite Volumes.

2012

Exact expressions for finite-volume Kirkwood−Buff (KB) integrals are derived for hyperspheres in one, two, and three dimensions. These integrals scale linearly with inverse system size. From this, accurate estimates of KB integrals for infinite systems are obtained, and it is shown that they converge much better than the traditional expressions. We show that this approach is very suitable for the computation of KB integrals from molecular dynamics simulations, as we obtain KB integrals for open systems by simulating closed systems.

Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum rule and related integrals

2001

The spin structure of the nucleon resonance region is analyzed on the basis of our phenomenological model MAID. Predictions are given for the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum rule as well as generalized integrals over spin structure functions. The dependence of these integrals on momentum transfer is studied and rigorous relationships between various definitions of generalized Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn integrals and spin polarizabilities are derived. These results are compared to the predictions of chiral perturbation theory and phenomenological models.

Abelian Integrals: From the Tangential 16th Hilbert Problem to the Spherical Pendulum

2016

In this chapter we deal with abelian integrals. They play a key role in the infinitesimal version of the 16th Hilbert problem. Recall that 16th Hilbert problem and its ramifications is one of the principal research subject of Christiane Rousseau and of the first author. We recall briefly the definition and explain the role of abelian integrals in 16th Hilbert problem. We also give a simple well-known proof of a property of abelian integrals. The reason for presenting it here is that it serves as a model for more complicated and more original treatment of abelian integrals in the study of Hamiltonian monodromy of fully integrable systems, which is the main subject of this chapter. We treat i…
