Partial Fraction - Application To Symbolic Integration

Application To Symbolic Integration

For the purpose of symbolic integration, the preceding result may be refined into

Let ƒ and g be nonzero polynomials over a field K. Write g as a product of powers of pairwise coprime polynomials which have no multiple root in an algebraically closed field:

There are (unique) polynomials b and c ij with deg c ij < deg p i such that
\frac{f}{g}=b+\sum_{i=1}^k\sum_{j=2}^{n_i}\left(\frac{c_{ij}}{p_i^{j-1}}\right)' + \sum_{i=1}^k \frac{c_{i1}}{p_i}.
where denotes the derivative of

This reduces the computation of the antiderivative of a rational function to the integration of the last sum, with is called the logarithmic part, because its antiderivative is a linear combination of logarithms.

Famous quotes containing the words application to, application, symbolic and/or integration:

    “If you would be a favourite of your king, address yourself to his weaknesses. An application to his reason will seldom prove very successful.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “It would be disingenuous, however, not to point out that some things are considered as morally certain, that is, as having sufficient certainty for application to ordinary life, even though they may be uncertain in relation to the absolute power of God.”
    —René Descartes (1596–1650)

    “The instincts of merry England lingered on here with exceptional vitality, and the symbolic customs which tradition has attached to each season of the year were yet a reality on Egdon. Indeed, the impulses of all such outlandish hamlets are pagan still: in these spots homage to nature, self-adoration, frantic gaieties, fragments of Teutonic rites to divinities whose names are forgotten, seem in some way or other to have survived mediaeval doctrine.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    “The more specific idea of evolution now reached is—a change from an indefinite, incoherent homogeneity to a definite, coherent heterogeneity, accompanying the dissipation of motion and integration of matter.”
    —Herbert Spencer (1820–1903)
