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:

    “A personality is an indefinite quantum of traits which is subject to constant flux, change, and growth from the birth of the individual in the world to his death. A character, on the other hand, is a fixed and definite quantum of traits which, though it may be interpreted with slight differences from age to age and actor to actor, is nevertheless in its essentials forever fixed.”
    —Hubert C. Heffner (1901–1985)
